IH-666D - 17oz Duck Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Brown

[Zirh]

My 21oz beatle busters (tagged 30) measure roughly 30 inches around the waist and 11 inches across the thigh. They're a super slim but not "painted on" fit.

So going by the sizing chart, a tagged 31 devil's duck will give a slightly more relaxed fit?

This is exactly what I did. Have a look at my pix some pages before. Good luck

@izham:

here my fit pic

been wearing it for a couples day and now really feel comfortable with it.

I'm willing to bet if you take that down to a 2.25" double cuff (looks 3"), folded the surged edge over on the inside so it only shows one red edge, then rocked some high tops - it'd be the business.

thanks for tip, im actually waiting to hemming it a bit, but at the moment i wasnt sure to hem it now or later after first soak/wash.

FYI, the thigh in my pair has stretched from 12.75in to 13.0in. I love these jeans.

just for everyone's info, i soaked mine and it supposedly shrank a very negligible length in the inseam but after being fully dry, it went back to original length.

btw, soaking was done with hot water around 70-80 degrees.

how comfy/stretchy are these while wearing?…

[corporalclegg]

I've actually found them to be extremely comfortable but I did size up one

[Finn666]

damn, it´s really hard NOT to cop a pair  …m.u.s.t.r.e.s.i.s.t.t.h.e.u.r.g.e.t.o.c.o.p!

so guys, what do you suggest i do when I get my hands on a pair of these? there seems to be a debate on soaking and what not but from what I read there seems to be not much of an outcome. So should I soak them before hemming?

I'd atleast wear'em a few days/weeks before hemming, after the creases are set you then can go for a hem job without a peoblem! soak isn't necessary imo!…

hey g
just wondering why there is such a drastic jump in some of the measurements between the 36 and 38?
ie hem and knee
most sizes go up by like .2 or .3 at a time and then the 36 to 38 is almost a full inch jump?

[ronaldlsh]

^^ I've been thinking about that too.

[Giles]

May be just the pairs we measured, we'll take another look today….

Comfy: outta this world
Stretchy: buy some leggings if you want stretchy

[Finn666]

you bastard just asked for "stretchy" since I really don't want a busted crotch on a pair of ducks matey…wouldn't look that great I guess! would cop a 36 if at all, though I fear that the low rise on these might lead to some problems with the stitchings in the crotch area after some wear (same as happened on my 666Sod!)...nothing less!

[Giles]

Duck (which is canvas) is not as inherently stretchy as denim.  Canvas is used for ships sails exactly because of its low stretch, which means they keep their shape…

If they were a low rise pair of pants I wouldn't like 'm… They have a high rise...
