Hey Max went with the 32s, bummer you missed out bud
I'm really quite pleased with these. Are the red hawks still available in your side? Didn't know if you had considered those or not. Personally I don't like the contrast stitching on black denim but if you don't mind it, they could be an alternative. -
I'll throw up some fit pics in a bit!
-
Also, with respect to the 19 oz denim…
I ended up putting my s003jp up for sale and purchased a s710xx-15th. I went ahead and did a hot soak using the washing machine to get most shrinkage out. You think one go is enough or would you run it twice just to make sure it's all outta there? -
The 19 oz doesn't shrink much. The inseam gets max. 2-2,5" shrinkage, I got this after two soaks. One machine wash should do all this. Thanks for the reply, the red hawks are not my kind of style for exactly the reasons you named.
-
No worries, I figured you had already thought if that option and felt the same as me… But just in case thought id mention it.
Thanks for the reply on the soaking. I thought I recalled 19 oz denim didn't shrink much, but just always like to try to get it all out so everything can set exactly where it will be and no surprises down the road. Really like the fit of 710 cut now that I've put on a little weight. Wasn't thrilled with it at a size 30 for my height. Looked weird but has changed to my news favorite.

I'll throw up pics of those as well this evening when I get home
-
Heres a pic of the 710xx. wish I didnt take the worlds worst fit pics but just dont have any p;ace around the house with better lighting than this. anyway, here it t'is. Ill follow up with the black hawks tomorrow -
thanks rafa!
-
Looks good TMT. Looking forward to seeing the Blackhawks tomorrow.
-
Those look great.
I put on my 710s and I feel like an idiot.
-
Thanks man, but Why feel like an idiot zwer?
-
Yeah Zwer, stop making me nervous….my pair are on the way and i'm more Finn than Tat in terms of build. I like Tat's fit but he's tall and thin. Not sure what to expect from my pair (w34). I have a w34 pair of 634s and they're perfect round the waist. Was looking for a slimmer silhouette. Any of you stockier fellas got any fit pics? Also, what can i expect from the 19oz denim? Cheers!

But they will stretch quite easily
And you can expect a lot from the 19oz denim. Just look at MaxP's pairs -
They might shrink a little below 34" but stretch back to raw measurements, if needed and stress is applied.
@Friday: from all what I heard, the 710 is indeed the clostest cut to the Beatle Buster. But someone with more IH-experience please correct me. Seul should be able to do so, as I think he owned both cuts in person
why should these need stretching anyhoo? I thought the w34 shrank down to a w34? Perfect!
