New to raw. Questions before I break in my JB x M 0100SP

[Parsley]

I just got a pair of Japan Blue x Momotaro "Going to Battle" - Model 0100SP in the mail (~.~ and they go on sale a week after I buy them).

They definitely "barely button up" which sort of makes me feel better that I sized them right. I'm just worried about what activity should I be doing until they stretch out and for how long?

Also would you say they fit me? I'm mostly worried about the thighs are crotch area looking odd being so tight. Should I just wear them around the house until they are broken in? I'm a bit fashion illiterate, been wearing Dickies work pants for the last half decade when I was a teenager. Here are some photos.










Also how the heck do I undo a button fly at a urinal without looking odd? Will the holes break in over time?

cute cat.yeah i hate that too about button fly on my grim timm.

[Gee]

Fit looks spot on, once they stretched a bit the fly will be easier as well.

Congrats on the upgrade, Parsley! You're a braver soul than me to jump straight from Dickies to those puppies. Those are some sweet jawnz! First off, I wouldn't worry too much about what activities you're doing in them. They're jeans, man, wear'em. Don't keep them locked in the tower until they're broken in. Take those bad boys out on the town as much as you feel like wearing them, that's how they'll get broken in. That being said, with a nice pair like that I wouldn't be doing anything overly dirty like hiking over rock scrambles, changing your engine oil, etc.

They do look a wee tight, but the way it goes they should stretch out nicely with time.

As far as the buttons go, well half of it is getting your fingers used to it, and the other half is getting your jeans used to it. Give it a month, you'll see a difference. It'll be second nature, and your ... ahem... neighbors will be none the wiser you're dealing with buttons. Can't imagine anyone willing to break urinal etiquette just to give you gruff, but if someone does, you can just mention something about handling heavy equipment yada yada. That'll go for a laugh, at least. The holes can break down over time, but you'll probably see more wear in the crotch first.

^ no way, beat the crap out of them.. thats part of the fun of a raw pair.. those battle stripes look cool as shit with the more wear they get.. as well as the whole jean itself..

and theyll stretch out.. probably .5-1".. youll be comfy in a week or so.. i got two pairs of jb/momos and love them.. they should fit a little tight at first.. if they dont, chances are you sized up too much anyway..

It sounds ridiculous, and I highly recommend waiting until you're alone in your place with doors locked and blinds closed before doing this, but I sped up the breaking in on a pair by giving them a light misting of water with an ordinary spray bottle and then doing lunges.
