>Should denim jackets fall at, above, or below the belt line?Ideally at the belt line, give or take.
Type II jackets are pure sex
Alright guys, just got the new Sugarcane 2025 wide cuts. For big thighs and ass, skip out on the 1947s and just go with these. The waist band is tapered inward, so there’s no issues with the “beak butt” as far as I can tell, and the backpockets and yoke angle are positioned to really complement the ass. Tons of mobility. The denim has a relatively loose weave with some tasty prominent slubbing. I went with my same size as my 1947s, but the waist fits a tiny bit more snug relatively. However, it stretched out a little in less than a day and the top block feels absolutely perfect. If you’re interested, definitely jump on these now because it seems like they are being purchased fairly quickly and they aren’t expected to make as many of these as regularly as the 1947s

>>18687202>>18687203Has a more early 40s style cut, curious...
I really want some white selvedge 5 pocket twill pants. NOT chinosAny good recs? Any the $250 and under range?
Are there any brands making 501 80s repros? I’m looking for something with a 12”+ rise that’s not as loose as a 50s cut
>>18687211Keep in mind that I have pretty large thighs and fill these out. If you’re a slim guy these are going to be quite wide. These definitely are a little bit wider than the Fullcount 0105
>>18687219How large are we talking about? I think I'm in the limbo of thighs so large they don't fit on slimmer cuts yet not large enough to make wide cuts look regular.
>>18687276I guess it depends on other factors. Are you short and stocky or fat? If so, I would avoid these jeans. If however you are either normal height to tall with a slim or athletic build then you’ll be able to pull these off as long as you generally know how to style differing silhouettes. If a short and stocky/guy were to put these on then it would make them look fatter and even shorter than they are
>>18687154Should be at the level where you can button the entire jacket and sit down without causing problems.
>>18687213Twill pants? All denim is twilled, either left or right handed.
Thoughts on these jeans? Any idea what brand it could be?
>>186872825'10 lift weights 210lbs Currently working on getting rid of a bit of pot belly. Want to get down to 200 and recomp.
>>18687324Hmmm idk man, it might not do your proportions any favor if you’re pretty bulky. I feel like dudes of your physique look best with a normal classic straight with a moderate level of taper. I’m 6’1” 185 pounds and these sugarcanes look pretty balanced on me, but you’re definitely bulkier than me
>>18687334>classic straight with a moderate level of taper.Any suggestions? So far everything is either too tapered or not tapered enough and I end up with sails under the knee. Side note: even though high waist is the current meta, anything with a true high waist makes my proportions look weird. The best fitting jeans regarding rise height I own are those who go just under my belly button. Like the 13mwz for reference.
>>18687336Personally I really dig the Freewheelers 1947. More thigh room than the 13MWZ with the right amount of taper. It looks like a perfect relaxed straight silhouette that has enough taper below the knee to where you aren’t going to have massive flaps at the hem. That said, there is not a single pair of jap denim that will make your ass look as good as the 13MWZ so you really ought to set your expectations straight. If you need an even higher rise, maybe check out Jelado 301xx, those will definitely go up to your belly button. What size 13MWZ are you?
>>18687337I've a couple pairs, one is 35, the other is a 36. The 36 fits noticeably looser tgan the 35. I size according to thigh rather tgan waust these days out of necessity. The 501 and similar won't go past mid quad on a 34. waist in the 13mwz. But I size those more on the thighs than waist out of necessity. Most jeans in a 34 won't go past mid quad. I also have a developed butt so I don't have trouble filling up jeans. But the pocket placement in lots of current production jeans is terrible.Just a week ago I got a vintage orange tab 615 and the fit is close to perfect, including the pocket placement.
>>186873045 pocket twill is the term usually meant to mean jeans that aren't made of contrasting white and blue warp and weft threads, or "denim" as we understand it
>>18687361If you prefer the looser feel of the 36, you'd probably like the Freewheelers 1947 or the Jelado 301. The Jelados have a high rise with a higher degree of taper below the knee, so they will be able to sit right below your belly button and the taper will look balanced once you hem them. They will likely have a closer thigh width to your 13mwz, whereas the Freewheelers will have a larger thigh width. It just depends on whether you're wanting more of a classic straight silhouette or more relaxed silhouette. Then again, you may want to just hold off on getting any jeans until you lose more weight?
>>18687361Shit I completely forgot to suggest the Omoto 815 as well. They're a relatively new brand, but the 815 cut looks pretty close to that 90s high rise big thigh jean with moderate taper. Just judging off the size charts, you'll likely have a rise very comparable to the 13mwz but with more thigh width and enough taper to not make your hems flap around too much
>>18687370>Then again, you may want to just hold off on getting any jeans until you lose more weight?Yes, I'm putting off getting new jeans until I get my waist down to my target weight and circumference.At least expensive ones. I've been getting vintage Levis and Wranglers for very cheap off of apps and while it's been a hit or miss, managed to find a few gems here and there. I'm looking for the perfect pair of jeans, the one with the fit, shilouette and mobility that's just right. So far the 13mwz is the closest thing, while still not 100% perfect. Otherwise I would have dropped the 200 the ask for tge blue bell edition with jap denim they launched this season and call it a day.
>>18687476>that picholy kek
>>18687155I just saw that movie last week. Fucked up. I wish those people didn't exist but they do.
>>18687487There's been a trend for the past 10-15 years that models do not wear the right size. It's impossible to know how pants would fit looking at the official websites. All fit the same on models. It's getting worse with AI generated images.>>18687499The real killers in which the story is based were way worse. More ruthless and bloodthirsty. There's also a mini series from 1993 starring Tim Roth as Charles Starwheather. More realistic to the actual evens and more grim in tone.
