@neph93:

Perfect @yannis These are the ones that got away for me. Had a pair paid for and chickened out because of measurements that in hindsight would have been perfect. Very happy you have a pair.

@neph93 I was going to say sorry you don't have a pair but on reflection that would be childish and uncalled for.

That’s ok mate. In a strange coincidence the pair I do have are also a funny colour blue [emoji15]

[yannis]

Sometimes its hard to pull the trigger on a cut that you know most of the time does not fit your particular body type. I am in the same boat with Neph93 in a sense that my thighs dictate what size and cut i can wear and not my waist.  Further more the knee measurement is also important to me. In any rate this Pronto cut although it looks similar to a 777 on paper is definitely roomier so it worked great. Its also a tag size bigger than what i would wear on an 888 or 634.

Here are mine with close to three years wear I would guess. Three or four washes.

Mine needed a wash before seeing the tailor. 228 days in so far. Still quite dark
Really pleased how soft the fabric has become already.

@beef_bonanza awesome! Always loved this fabric. Especially with those colour arcs

[beef_bonanza]

@AdamJ Yes. This detail is one of the features I dig most. Hope at some point they disappear in the bright blue and white fabric of the faded denim

I can get these jeans on and button them all the way up. The top button just turns a bit due to tension and after wearing for a while gets uncomfortable. So after seeing @Daniel San suggest one of these pant stretcher thingies somwhere on the forum I figured I'd give it a shot. Says to give it a couple days. I ran the waist under a faucet first.

I turned it as hard as I could with my hand- a bit too hard and resulted in red bruised palm. After that I switched to channel locks and cranked it up.

@Oaktavia
awesome Steven
from my experience it works best when the jeans are wet.

Well it worked! The waist is loose now! Whoohoo!

[RoxRocks86]

Looks like a brutal crank! Glad it turned out well for you

[Oaktavia]

@RoxRocks86 it worked well! It was $20 something on Amazon. Now I cam wear these rare pantalones!
