        My personal view is that what your waist measures is to a great part academic.  My actual waist is way higher than the waist band of my jeans.  What is important is what a pair of jeans you have worn for a while actually measure and then make some informed adjustments depening upin the rise.

        I get returns every day from people who either measure their actual waist or believe the tag-size bullshit on their existing jeans.  Example, I am having a pair of 34 634S retunred today because the customer wears a tag size 34 in a pair of Levis, the poor dude, could not even do the bottom button up, I suspect the actual measurements of those "34's" is closer to 37….........

          They are raw and should be soaked…..

              Alex, make sure you look at the measurements of my 1 week old tag size 33 to understand what you may end up with in the 34 and 36….(somewhere up above)..........

                    if my waist measures exactly 30 inches should i buy size 29 or 30? i don't mind sizing down and stretching the tighter waist, but i also don't want it to be so tight that it won't stretch out to the 30.

                    thanks.

                        I soaked it a couple of days ago, lt it dry until I put it on this morning, and I went WOW. This is the best fabric, so freaking stiff, the blue is so deep and dark. It is very elegant, no need for an OD'ing. I still rank the SR's a shade above because the weight is so impressive.

                        The lined pockets show an attention to detail I just love.

                        What's surprising is that the 34 waist is as snug as my 32 SR's. I'm sure it will stretch but it is definitely not a 34…

                        In any case, I'm curious to see how this one will age. Should be wonderful.

                        Beautiful, thank you so much Haraki and IH crew.

                          then…


                          Now got to go to the taylor for a proper hemming. Still hesitating for a second soak.

                          As usual, G. was super helpful/patient. Great jean, great service . Thank you !

                                I'm off to sunny (very) climes for 4 weeks tomorrow.  Just hope that I will be able to give the 666 the proper amount of attention whilst I am away.  As a back up, I have butchered a pair of FreeBee 101's - they're now shorts…...........

                                    Thanks for the close-ups beats. You can see that this fabric is really special, much more slubby and hairy than on the regular 21 oz.
