      Nice work Ben. What size do you take in the 3005? If you wouldn't mind, some measurements BIG style of your pair after a few washes would be grand.

        Flat head, htc (pimped with flat head buckle), and more flat head!

        Wow great color FH @grandmasterben !

        Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
        Well, I have others.

                Should've washed it more man!  You could have something crazy nice by this point.

                Mine's looking really good too, shows most of the wear on the elbows/arms.

                  Giles, do you still have Flathead under your wings here in Europe?
                  Where could I get a type 3 (6003) jacket in size 44?

                  @moykky  Have you tried mailing DC4? I think they had one when I last looked.

                    The jacket is looking good already but a thorough wash will really bring out the colour and take it to the next level.

                    I haven't been able to wear my Type II as much as I'd hoped because the weather here has already hit mid to high teens temperature wise.

                      Nice work Ben. What size do you take in the 3005? If you wouldn't mind, some measurements BIG style of your pair after a few washes would be grand.

                      I've got a 33!

                      I washed it yesterday and it's stretched to the point where I feel they end up at.

                      Waist: 33
                      Front rise: 11.25"
                      Back rise: 15.75"
                      Thigh: 12.5"
                      Hem: 9"

                      My recommendation is to get your the waist you want them to end up at and they will most likely fit anyone in the thighs.  This will give you a perfect fitted loose fit. If you want a slouchy super comfy for you can go up a size, like Tyler's from self edge.

                      You def want the 3005 or 3003 (even though I've never seen a fit pic), you know you want some flat head jeans that fit 😉

                      In fact. I like the cut so much I'll try and hunt down the 3005-A next!

                        Thanks a lot for those measurements Ben. I think I would be a size 32 in the 3005 (which is the same as my old 3001) and you're right, that's the model I'd choose. I'd thought that the rise would be lower than what you've listed, which had held me back. Maybe one day… !

                                        Highly recommended @Broark! Just watch the fit, it can be a tad tricky….

                                          In my opinion there is not a better smelling garment than the wabash…no clue why.

                                            Awesome, @zatenm !

                                            How would you describe the cut? I really would like to get one of those but I have special requirements (slim with long arms) and the measurements of R&H and Self Edge are different.
