Matt fantastic fit on those jeans and beautiful baby

[georgeel]

Great fit on that bab… er... I mean.... Great fit on those jeans and wonderful baby! 

[Matt]

Thanks gang, you know it just occurred to me… I was trying to figure out what this peculiar feeling was in the hip area.  Some of you may know what I'm talking about.  The rigidity of the material and the fitted nature of the 666 makes it so that it almost moves independently of my body.  Then it hit me, I feel like I'm wearing a saddle.  This is what horses feel like before they are broken.  Does that mean we really don't break these in, rather, they break us in?!?!  I haven't felt this used since college.

congrats on the little one matt!

Those jawns look good on you as well….

[Giles]

Comes with the baby.

So there's snow in the forecast for Northeast US this weekend???  You guys ready for some blue tinged snow angels?  Just in time for Halloween… that's not right.

Ten days of daily wear (prolonged by long nights w/ the baby) and they feel like pants now as opposed to an iron maiden.  They really make my legs happy.

Giles, how soon are you planning on doing another run of these?
debating between buying now or continuing to save and buy later

[Giles]

It'll be a few months.  We will do another run, but no production slot is arranged yet…

[cAbES]

OK, thanks.  I'll probably be buying a pair of these in the next week then.  I'm fairly positive on sizing,  and just want to see if my thinking is right.  I wear a size 32 Devil's fit od,  I'm thinking that a size 30 in these would be just right.

[Giles]

Either that or a 31.  The 30 will be pretty tight to start with.  Anyone out there got direct experience of both cuts?

[Morose_Penguin]

I've got a 33 in the OD and a 30 in the VMC/XHS. The OD I use a belt with now due to some stretching and the VMC/XHS fit fine without.

Hope this helps.

[cAbES]

the waist of the 32 has gotten pretty loose, they hang pretty low even with a belt (pictures in the 666od thread)
