aside from a couple here and there, i haven't seen any black jawns that have really amazed me. most just end up looking sorta grayish. hopefully the "fading properties" on these will live up to what the site purports.

I went True to Size, but I'm skeptical of the estimations and measurements provided by BiG. I did thought about sizing down 1. It would actually be perfect after they stretch, assuming it's 1".

However, they estimate the BK to shrink only 1" where in the past it's been more than that. Gordon is suppose to confirm with me when they arrive.

got s5000 sams with arcs and tabs from blue in green, fresh out the box. probably one of the last pairs with arc/tabs. wuts good.

lot 12, can anyone tell me if theyll loosen up with wearing?

presoak they fit great, i sized 1 up in my waist but i think i benefited in a more true to size look anyway, but i was wondering if theyll loosen up post-soak, because i have a feeling there will be some shrinkage.

Major Lazer · 11-03-2009, 10:13 PM

There will be shrinkage, but you should wear them right after the soak while they're still wet for 10 minutes or so just to stretch the waist out before you hang them to dry.
