      my size 32  just arrived! it is too much comfortable that it makes me insecure due to the stretching reputation of these 21 oz denim :(. the waist is a bit loose tho. im not sure whether i should just rock these or exchange these. tell me what u guys think of the fit

      here is some shitty iphone pictures (will post better pictures next time)

        "too much comfortable" in terms of "too big"?

          they look "not too much comfortable" to me tbh. …i'd say keep and rock'em and a few days/weeks later you should have a nice fit!

            its not that its "too big" but its too pliable all over and a tad loose in the waist. im really new to these 21oz signature denim and im shocked that it is so much more comfortable than my previous raws (even though it is listed as 21oz). maybe that is why im a little bit insecure about it.

            ill take ur advice finn! we'll see the fit in a couple of days

              Looks great, don't move those. Downsized would look ridiculous.

                  They look good to me too, if they're a bit loose in the waist but fit in the thigh and legs, then I'd put on a belt and not worry about it. I know what you mean tho, being fairly new the the 21oz denim myself I was pretty surprised to see how soft, pliable it is. Definitely not a bad thing tho.

                      They are not raw. The 555-02 is raw

                        The fit looks great - wear a belt if the waist is a bit loose - if they are a bit loose in the waist, they won't stretch - this denim stretches when you apply pressure.

                          akubolo, the fit looks good to me. The waist might shrink a little when you wash them - mine shrank by 0.5" (1.3 cm).

                          I think downsizing would look too skinny and tight.

                            I just ran my 555-01s through a hot wash and dry to see if it effected the jeans at all. They definitely tightened up a bit in the waist and thigh. The stacks look a bit more natural. I'd say there was a very small amount of indigo loss over all. I'll do up some photos tonight hopefully.

                                          JerUrsidae & satria great images of your jeans.  from the pictures i take it you are both in the under 34 waist club?

                                          here are images of me in the over 33 waist club (34 to be exact & hemmed short as heck, i would take an extra inch, but that's what every guy says)

                                          forgive the sort of sh!tty flicks

                                          head high, middle finger higher
