will check measurements on Selfedge and Rakuten. Might purchase through Rakuten though, prices are better there...

Fit pix

Apologies for the poor picture quality

I think i could have size down one more


Attached thumbnail(s)

Can't really see, pic's really bright... but black is nice. My dukes should've been black shearers T_T

by the looks of it... yeah.. i think its fit nicely... and its not supposed to be that way...

I'll try and get better pictures,

G3n what did you mean by not suppose to be that way?

Holyboyz, what is your obsession with sizing down?lol

even after several of denim jeans...i still wonder what is considered the perfect fit? should be really tight.....or a bit loose????

It should be snug

I guess its personal preference, personally I think that about half a size to 3 /4 from skin tight gives the best silhouette.

I brought these in the size I tried about 1 month ago, maybe I lost weight or something cuz their not as snug as I would have like them, maybe because its 2nd hand...

I've been thinking should I get the length altered , by from my experience when you shorten then the leh opening is larger, is therre a way to prevent this?

Alter that as well. Hem it! get 17-17.5cm hems or 18 if you don't like it so small.

size down one more, your thigh no space to breathe lol..

My APC NS hunt continues

how would you have time to break so many jeans...lol

dude. i think the fit is bad. because your thighs is pretty big. u shudda get straight cut. thinn fin are skinnies if im not mistaken.

my experience with nudie grimm tim, as the 1st time i wore it a bit tight... but now... after wash... i feel its kindda loose already.... i mean loose to a certain degree that i must wear it with a belt or it'll drop down....

so for me if it fits u snuggly... then its going to be loose later on...

Oh man.... Thin Fin is not your fit.

you should try with Big Bengt (size down if you want tight fit)

i think most of the people here still dont understand that raw denim needs to be size down if you plan to wear them for 4-6 months without washing coz denim stretches out like mad!! even my freakin 14.5 oz stiff flat head F310 has stretch out like mad after a week of constant wear...my imperial which was almost impossible for me to button up at first wear now even after the first wash/soak and after a good amount of stretch is loose and i still need a belt to hold it up if i wanna run fast in them..unless if you;re buying unsanforized denim like evisu no1, PBJ, th flat head etc then its ok to buy TTS(true to size) or may be one size up depending on the silhouette u wanna achieve...and if you wanna buy brands like nudie, APC, cheap monday etc which uses denim material which can stretch out to at least 2 inches in the waist, then you should size down..at least two for god sake coz give it a 2 months of constant wear it will stretch out and you will look ugly in those jawns...seriously coz that was the mistake i did when i first bought my raws years back and i regretted it =(

Added on May 12, 2011, 12:49 pmi agree i think you could have sized down...but then again u can try soaking them in hot water to make them shrink but then again dont hope of much of a shrinkage coz all nudie jeans are sanforized...and yea i think a big bent or average joe sized down would compliment you bro...and yea APC NS!! ehehehe

+1

size down is important, but getting the right fit (cutting) is more.. big thigh buying super skinny is a fail no matter how much it can stretch..

If it wasn't tight in the first place, it wouldn't stretch. It stretches because of the tension the fabric is subjected to.

guys just found out bout this lowyat thread.. i might be getting thunder soap n sugar cane soap next week.. let me know if u guys want..
