@Giles:

@jacoavlu:

think it might be fun to have a little contest and try to guess how many pair sell in the first two days?… G if you want to join in best to keep your guess private so as not influence others? you could just pm me your guess... mine = 35

When's cut off Jaco?

I suppose 48 hrs after they go on sale

@Giles:

They appear to be fairly similar to me, there is some variance but that is normal +or- japanese seamstress tolerance…...

I hope a super hot wash would do the job…

"Model" wears 32 pre soak…...

G would you take a 32 or the normal 33?

[Giles]

I would take the 33 in all probability, However, I could do the 32 as they would stretch after a while.  But I aint a slim jean type of guy, so I don't size down as a rule.  I tend to stick to 33 and let the cut define the look…...

[Jordan23]

Thank you G!Going to take the 33 as well.

No size 28 Giles?

[Jordan23]

Let the war begin!!!

[Giles]

No, I am afraid not.  The 634SR sold very slowly in 28, so I made (obviously now the wrong) decision not to do 28's. Sorry.

[catchgeo]

after the initial soak, how much shrinkage should be expected in the waist? im on the fence about the 36 or 35" waist. my 634s' which are 36 are almost "too" loose now, but my 634s-b's are fine….. any thoughts?

[HarrisonYeo]

Thats alright , just ordered a 29' . Guess i'll just have to put on some x'mas weight 

[FurattoHeddo]

The product page says shrinkage for the inseam is 1" as opposed to iirc at least 2" with the SR, is that correct? (making sure that's not a typo)

[Giles]

Well, I only got 1" in the inseam out of all 3 pairs of 634SR I tested and only an inch out of the test pair of 634S-RAW I soaked.  I think some people managed t get 1.5 and even 2 inches, but my view is far better to err on the side of caution and have the slightly to long. After all you can always get them shortened further, but you can't put back on what's been taken off…..

[FurattoHeddo]

Crystal clear, thanks …

[Giles]

And I did spec no half rear pocket lining, but Haraki missed the request and lined them anyway…....

@madmonday:

off track (as normal) nice footwear the model wears.

19 pairs, my logic is the holiday shopping & all are going to make folks  be a little conservative with these.  i think the 35s are going to sell out 1st cause you know folks have really been waiting on those, the rest will sell at a conservative, but steady pace.

You better start praying that things slow down, 17 gone so far….

[Giles]

Make that 18

[Giles]

20

[Seul]

Nice!..

[dave]

The SR didn't hardly shrink at all in the inseam, but the leg did twist like crazy.

Giles, I didn't get the order link, but I was on the preorder list.  Can you send ti to me?    I really need a 31

[dave]

nevermind, I guessed it
