Hi, the drying room was not working, they are doing maintenance on it so my jeans are still drying!! !"¤#&&"#
But My size 38 got the exact same measurements as BIG have on their charts after a soak.
As soon as i can actually wear the jeans dry I will report back!

So they are doin maintenance on the drying room at my place and should be done Wednesday. I need to resoak these and dry warm, they fit good but could be slightly snugger. Im a little worried about the back rise tho since its kinda short as it is, but hopefully it will work out.

I got about an inch of shrinkage in the waist on my XX-007s, but they stretched right back to pre-soak measure right away. Please let us know how your measures change with the soak. Enjoy! I havent actually worn mine yet but resoaked and tumbled and Hung to dry. They are a litte bigger then bluingreen specs about half an inch on thigh and cuffs so maybe i didnt tumble long enough. Im thinking about resoaking a third time but am worried it will take out too much starch......hmmm decicions decicions |

U guys are so bad, you just wait and see what happens and doesnt chime in. Well offcourse im in the middle of shrinking them again. I just had to try since I know a 34 would not fit at all. These are so close.
So I loose a little starch...I can live with that. They didnt bleed alot so should be kewl.

Done. Shrank some more. Fits swetah! They do loose up a little more then one would want after a days wear, but they didnt loose that much starch so are still crispy.
I feel the material is thicker then the g-loomies for sure. Its also actually not as slubby, more wavy. Its kewl.
Love the color, its insane. Pockets are perfect both front and back.

one wash or raw?
I'm debating between the 33 one wash or 34 raw.

I would check the measurement guide of blueingreen because they measure many many jeans and get an average. My first pair was incredible spot on the tables.
I would look at the one wash as a guide of how the jeans will fit and use that size (ex. 33). Then you can buy them washed(sz.33) ready to wear or raw(sz.33) and soak yourself, just get the same exact tagsize.

Think I'm going to go to BiG and pre-order XX-013s that should come in next month.
The question is do I want the BiG version of the JP version...

Nothing like a $90 stamp (ignoring that Denimio and Okayama don't have any xx11 or xx13 inventory).

The NC-011BK I bought from Denimio also have a print that they are a collaboration with Blue in Green. I wonder if maybe all the tapered cuts are developed by BiG?

What's the same price? 13's are listed at $305 from BiG and $216 from Denimio. Of course Denimio could list them for $1 since they only have 28's in stock.

Oh you made it sound like the two different versions (blue leaf vs white leaf) would have different prices. I'm buying from BiG because I live in NYC and have a < 5 minute subway ride to get there. That way I can get properly measured and have them hemmed/repaired on site free of charge. |

@untucked if you happen to walk past the PBJ-store could you pick up any slim taper in size 34 for me? (any blue is ok. left-right twill or no twill doesnt matter, not black or purple tho)
Im starting to think I might even squeeze myself into a 34, these stretch like there is no tomorrow!!!
I have to wear them while hotsoaking, but it could be worth it, I got the baggy ass with these oh noes!

I did ask about the BiG difference, which sounds like it's a choice of the blue leaf. Thanks. |

It's a 3hr plane ride to get to PBJ Harajuku, lol. But, if you figure out your sizing, I would gladly proxy you.
