both thin fins and grims are w28, my natural w is 30 assuming breaking into them they should go back to 29-29.5 which would be perfect.

the thin is strechy and softer compared to the grim more breathable as well. The strechyness might cause it to look tight

Kot i think a losser fitting Thin fin would have the same feed as your s001

1 size down should be perfect. i did have a hard time wearing grim tim dry red last time... it took me a few days just to make them stretch... at 1st i couldnt even button the jeans lol! but after a while it'll become a bit loose and it'll feel more comfortable. in my opinion the grim tim suits u better because of ur big thigh and butt and it looks good on u. on the other hand the grim tims are not as breathable as other jeans because of the denim itself.
the thin fins fitting looks like its too tight btw

Go Grim Timm w28 or Thin Finns w29.

I won't comment on which is better, cuz they're equally good - its up to the wearer.


Added on March 16, 2011, 3:58 pm@ silencer,

Your 7FOM's fit looks ok, but I got nothing more to add regarding the quality.

Regarding Evisu, I think most of Evisu is sanforized. So it will have miniscule stretching. And about shrinking, all jeans shrink after washed. But believe it or not, they re-stretch after you wear it for 1 day. So... upsizing? I don't think so...

I've just gotten a G Star Structor Super Skinny Jeans from ASOS.
Hm, not the best fit I reckon. Should have gone a size lower. It's w30 now.

I would want to post a fit pic, but my mirror isn't at the best location. Can't get a straight picture -.-

You need to 2 size up for No.1 Evisu only laaa. Because its unsanforized denim. No. 2 size up 1 only. And no. 3, 4, 5 and all international Evisu no need to size up, just choose actual size or one size down, because after 6months it stretch a bit.

Yes you are doom if you size up 2 for international Evisu. Its no way gonna shrink to 2". Alteration is the only solution huhu. Some of info in the net quoted what Evisu founder suggest us, to size up 2 but the founder meant was for Japan Evisu. Japan Evisu, No. 1 unsanforized, No. 2 50% sanforized, so you need to size up 2 for No. 1 and size up 1 for No. 2. All Evisu that bought outside Japan are sanforized so no need to size up. But if you afraid it stretch after months of hard use just 1 size up for No. 1, don't size up for No. 2, and 1 size down for International Evisu.

Bro, Evisu Japan suggest, 2 size up for No. 1, 1 size up for No. 2. For international Evisu no need size up, actual size. Evisu don't tell about No. 2 is sanforized or not. But from BiG website they do state that Evisu No. 2 is partially sanforized, about 50%.


Added on March 17, 2011, 5:13 amBro if you want to try swimming in ocean how bout buy No. 1 actual size and go for a swim. I don't think they will shrink at the waist since you wear it and hope other parts they will shrink soon become slim fit, hahaha just a crazy idea from me.
