      I guess it's been almost a month now, worn them every day, favorite pair

      Can you elaborate on why there your favorite? They look awesome by the way, how did you figure out sizing

        the fit on these really works well for me, they're probably my best fitting jeans, and I really like the denim I think it's a special one and is gonna age beautifully

        on sizing I took kiya's advice, his recommendation matched what I thought I needed going off the thigh numbers

          fit is really great imo, not my cut but looks spot on for you

            Those look perfect, Jacoavlu. I'll be watching to see how yours fade, since mine won't see much wear until January 2013 because I'm committed to my Samurai S710xx's until then for the Heavyweight Denim Competition on superfuture.

            And Madmonday, I don't think your pockets look much lower than mine from the pics I've seen. They look great on you as well.

                Ditto that those looks great on you, Jaco.  I just could not make the fit work on me.  It's a shame because the detail and denim on these is awesome.

                  Why didn't the fit work for you? I'm worried yet again cause I ordered a 34 and the waist was massively to big, now I ordered 32 but worried about thighs

                    Hi.

                    I also ordered these in a size 31 (im a size 33 in the 666XHS), and i hope the size chart from SE is exact. The size 31 is almost the same as the 666 xhs, and exactly the same in the thighs (11,7) - The reason that Giles measure 12 inch is, as described earlier in this thread, that SE thigh measure is 1 inch below crotch.
                    My 666xhs are now 60 days of almost constant wear, and the thighs have finally stretched enough for me to feel left foot
                    again.

                    Enjoy

                      Are they numbered? I forgot to look before I sold my other pair

                          Jaco, so how long will you go without a wash?

                            I soaked mine last night 20 mins warm to get rid of any shrink before sending them back to take some more length off, they shrank 0.5 inch in length, negligible in waist and thigh,  stiffened up quite a bit and the denim feels a bit more coarse. I'll wash them once they get too dirty or stinky, who knows

                              So true, I washed the 34 I had to try to shrink them they came out coarse and stiff as a board, I'm thinking when I get this other 32 pair in I'm gonna try not to wash for months. I'm in love with the denim though, I can't wait to see the fades, and the evolution of them over multiple years, they seem like they have the propensity to change immensely over time.

                                good luck. i wish i couldve sized down 2 (the waist on the 32 is way too big), but i would not be able to fit any smaller in the thigh. worn them about 5 times so far, buttons are still so stiff, but at least i can get them all in now

                                  This is the exact problem I had except it was between a 32 and a 31.

                                      They look black but I think that's just the picture, how was your sizing

                                        They're pretty close to black right now, but they ARE blue, especially in direct sunlight. I sized these for my thigh measurement, so they are a tagged size 31. I usually wear a 33, which ends up stretching to about 35" in the waist. I wish I had measured the waist before wearing them, because they weren't as tight as I was dreading. In fact, they were pretty close to perfect, which makes me think the waist was at least 34.5" to begin with.

                                          i measure my w29 when i received them, if i recall they seemed right about what i expected from the SE size chart, right about 32. after a month they measured 33.2, and post soak they measured 32.6

                                          my usual IH size is w30, and most of mine end up stretching to around 32

                                            just wanted to put up a few rough images, not much really going on but these really remind me of old school OD.  i won't say it again until April

                                            check the guy walking his dog & how he looks like he's, oh forget it.  i need to grow up
