      @Finn666:

      @Giles:

      The waist shrinks approx an inch, which is about 3% on a size 30 jean.  All other horizontal measurements will shrink by the same percentage…..

      thx sir!…
      still thinking of going with the regular 21oz indigo denim or the sbg though! damn I can't wait 🙂

      the 555 won't come in a tagged 35" waist right?...

      Finn mate I would suggest you the SBG thigh wise and because of the different and interesting fading potential of this fabric. I also think the denim on the SBG gives a bit more stretchwise, this is what I experienced with my BB SBG compared to the BB indigo but I may be wrong.
      think you may pull off a waist 34 SBG pretty well without knowing all of your measurements man  😉  🙂 of course the 21oz indigo and 18oz raw will be beautiful too for sure.

      Cheers,
      David

        Don't want to seem nitpicky, but 21oz patch on 18oz denim?

          Whoops, well spotted.  My fault, but I'll blame it publicly on Haraki…....

            davito - going to get both I think (one at a time though!) so SBG is first I guess…black is beautiful, even when it comes to clothing 😉

                      G, does this mean the patch on the next batch will be changed or left alone?

                      Thanks

                            Hey G, is it a mistake that from the knee below and the rise is smaller on the raws than the 21oz version? How much stretch can we expect from the raws?

                              We measured the actual jeans, so the measurements are accurate….The raws will likely stretch back to pre soak measurements with wear....

                                      Thanks I noticed that my 301s actually shrunk more than I thought around .2 in the leg. I know these are raw but how much shrinkage can we expect?

                                          LOL - it does look as if the guy on the screen is rather enthusiastic about our friend DD's back side. But those slim cut jeans make a great butt, don't we all know it… 😉 😉 😉

                                          Keep your jeans on–-and let nothing come in between you and the denim !
