The Flat Head

[joesaintjohn]

Lori's balders are in. Pre-soak. Do you think they'll be too small after the soak?

[Chris]

That's a pretty snug fit right now.  They're probably going to be super tight after soaking.  I think I'd recommend going up a size.

[llvlaglne]

oh man joe, i was going to tell you FH usually runs a size smaller…. size up one and fit would be fire

[joesaintjohn]

That's what I was thinking. I went off the selfedge measurements which seems a bit off.

[joesaintjohn]

Feck, they don't have a pair in the size up, but they have a pair two sizes up. What if she did the ole wear them in the tub, then wear them to dry trick?

[llvlaglne]

how does she feel about the waist right now?

[llvlaglne]

yea selfedge measures differently from IH

2 sizes up would be too lose for her liking

[joesaintjohn]

The waist has plenty of room, it's the thighs I'm worried about.

[llvlaglne]

you're looking at 2 options.

1. cold soak and have her sit in the tub in them

2. return for score credit….. look at the 3sixteen pairs for felines

looks spot on in the thighs..... but this is how it'll look efter some time in them

[grandmasterben]

Can you pinch any fabric off the thighs? I think those might be fine if you hot soak those bitches from knee down and then slide the top block down when it gets colder and agitate a little.

It comes down to the thighs, per all others. If they feel okay in the thighs now, I'd keep them, if they're a tad annoying/tight, it's going to be a long road to end up still being annoyed.

I can attest to the quality of 3sixteen's ladies denims. Mrs Snowy's been rocking a pair since 2009 and has yet to split any seams. She wears them as work jeans and gets up to all kinds of crazy shit in them. (I keep meaning to take a pair of them…/hijack).

[Seul]

I'll just add that these don't look too flattering on her…

There... I said it...

Nah, this kind of method just doesn't make sense in the long run. Imagine going through this kind of crazy process every time you want to wash your jeans… If the cut or size doesn't work from the get-go, you need a different pair.

A soak (if they fit), and I bet they'll look amazing on Lori.

this is so true. the shrinkage will come in the end so there is no point in minimizing the shrinkage at the initial soak. it will haunt you until your jeans finally get to their settled "end size"

the back-rise and the love placement of the backpockets is what seul may not like about it…rest would be badass as a POST soak fit!
so return for credit and decide on sth. else i´d suggest!...

[elclintor]

What's wrong with her busters? Those look amazing on her. These not so much. But who knows after a soak? I may be convinced.

[Seul]

Finn knows what's up… So does El Saviour, but I think she has a pair 666S'es as well?.. Either that or the Busters looked marvell-ass on her...

[llvlaglne]

Can always count on this guy for fitting advice and a laugh

Utterly agree that the Busters look made for Lori, glad it's not just me thinking that.

@llvlaglne, I was wonder if Lori knows how much time we're spending talking about her jeans? All to help, of course!
