BROTHERHOOD OF BIB

[ZackB]

@derek111 damn man, I’d send them back. I’m 5’10 and a half and have way more room than that on the straps. I must just have a shorter torso than you.

[derek111]

@ZackB @SourPower agreed gentlemen. Even maxed out, I feel like I could use more in the straps. I glad am I tried them out though, too bad they aren't for me. Appreciate the feedback!

[labrat]

Size up or two…

[SKT]

@Alex i remember some talk a while back about making some changes to the strap length or design…is that still a possibility in the future?

[tody]

@SKT There was, after I posted pictures of my disaster with the brown duck 806. Got a black 806 subsequently, the straps were much longer.
I am not sure if and how the strap length is specified for production. Let's make a separate thread where everyone can post his model, tag size and strap length. I can start that later today.

@derek111

Out of interest what inside leg do you wear? I'm bib curious and also have a long torso.

@tody dude. Full transparency, I had a good gut laugh at your expense off those camel toe duck bib picks. It was also total confirmation without having met you, that you are a fun hang being able to laugh at yourself like that and share w the rest of us. Cheers.

I don’t think that needs it’s own thread. Since this is a general bib thread cant it just go here?

Unnecessary or overly specific threads when a related thread already exists are a pet peeve.

I don’t need to see a whole thread about how the 33 you bought on Grailed fits in the shoulders.

Not you personally @tody but you catch my drift.

[derek111]

@NickD in general I like a 33 hem with a double cuff, I will measure what that equates to later today. But for example, these are my 1955's hemmed to 33" with a Japanese cuff. They are sitting above my hips where they should. It shows how my proportions are a bit wonky.

[Matt]

I think sizing up in those bobs would work out well for you.

[tody]

@Matt no pics, just collecting measurements. can be deleted later…

[tody]

@flannel-slut there was only one place on the internet to share them….

@Mizmazzle

Fishin' indeed

[Karol]

@T4920 full embrace of the bib form

[T4920]

@Karol I questioned how much I needed a bib, but now it's mine I get it...

Probably grab an IH one some day, but this Orslow one is so light and breathable! Denim has such beautiful character too.

[Karol]

@T4920 similar journey here. As a kid I hated even the idea of it and now fast forward this forum happened and I saw all beautiful people rocking theirs. There is no coming back.

[Mister_Brue]

@T4920 Strong.

[NickD]

@derek111 Thansk, that's useful. We're very similar proportions so I'd have the same issues as you, I think I'd need to size up to get the body length.

[SKT]

@tody I was thinking there was some talk about a design refresh that would make the front “rise” itself a bit longer? Not just the straps.

My memory has been shit lately so I could be way off

[Mizmazzle]

@T4920 you are full in deep now with the KGLW carnival!! Bet those shows have been transformative!!
