@twin.
Nice fit.
What is the tag size?

[twin]

@Eisenherz  The tag size is 34

[Niro]

@Eisenherz ahhh ok that's good to know, thanks.

So you paid fedex and then contacted german customs yourself?

I am going to ring Fedex, because it's been 20 days since i sent in the ticket and have got no reply back. £12 is small in grand scheme of things, but I should not have to pay their extortionate admin fee for their or customs mistake

[Eisenherz]

@Niro.
Yes.
Problem is that tete+yoko did not declare that pants are made in Canada.
I called Customs and they told me I should late filing invoice. I'm waiting now for refund.
Will report back, if Customs pays back.
But German Authority needs much much much money.

I knew they must have done something wrong.

I did ask them if they have shipped to anyone in EU since the CETA agreement, and they said I was the first.

@Alex:

You will be able to reclaim any duty you paid via the couriers brokerage team, but taxes (and their fucking admin fee) wont be refunded.

@Alex  As you said. They knocked off the duty as a 'goodwill' gesture, but I still pay the VAT. Better than nothing.

[Alex]

Still a load of shite though!!

[Niro]

yup! I just noticed, they also removed the admin fee

[Eisenherz]

N&F 32 oz sz 32/32.
Fits well. But if I would soak them, I coul'nt get closed them anymore.
My correspondence with customs: they want to have original signed invoices and declarations. Still waiting for refund.

[madmonday]

jeans look good and I am not mad about that fit.

too bad you can not soak/wet as the fit doesn't look too tight to me.

[Eisenherz]

I fixed the button and then tried to expand by an vice. Waist measure came from 16.2 to almost 17, but after dry it came back to 16.3 inch single waist. I think I could soak it with icecold water and only short time…

Liking how my N&F 10th Anniversary Easy Guys are looking these days.  14oz short slub denim made with cotton from 10 different countries.  Kind of a fun idea.  Seem to be fairly slow faders.  This is after 10 months of occasional wear.  2 soaks and maybe 3 washes… and a heck of a lot of longboarding

Hey everybody Tate and Yoko has the 32 oz jeans back it stock. I just copped a pair!

I’ve always been curious about the denim, but I couldn’t squeeze into the thighs on those in a million years! 11.75 post soak on a 38? That’s nutty

I'm just going to not ever soak or wash mine… these are more of just a novelty really.

[Wlemon]

I saw that, too, @Filthy. Post pictures when you get them. I'm curious. 

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

@Wlemon you you know it! I sure will. I will thoroughly scrutinize them too!

[Wlemon]

I don't have much N & F anymore. On the whole, they seem a little gimmicky, but this pair seems pretty impressive. Definitely overkill, yet an awesome weight. I'm curious to see what you think compare to the IH 25oz.

Yeah the thigh measurements seem entirely unrealistic. What kind of a body type are these supposed to be for? I don’t think the previous run was like this… @twin could perhaps confirm? I too would like a pair just because but if the proportions really are like in the chart, there’s just no way.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

All of the fit pics I have seen in that cut seem pretty roomy. I guess I will find out soon.
