Legit? Did any jeans come without a patch?

Just purchased these from TheRealReal and there were no other photos. unfortunately I didn’t even think about it till afterwards. On top of it, I now just saw a couple posts about TheRealReal selling fake Kapital 🤦‍♂️ I’ll just keep the tags on. But besides that, were any released without the patch on the back?

Seller just posted measurements, no details about the Jean itself and I’m a Japanese denim enthusiast completely new to kapital.

Anybody wanna buy them? NWOT size 33… They just came in today. unfortunately I’m a true 32, bought 33 because it was the last size and top block is too big :( I’ll let them go for a steal. Continental USA only

Background: I have 2 pairs of SDA— a regular straight 21oz pair from 2012 I was lucky enough to find as NOS in 2022 size 32 and a straight tapered fox fiber d1828 size 31… the 1828 is borderline too small now, so I was looking for a regular or relaxed straight fit in a lighter weight that I can wear all year round and reduce the wears on my 21oz to preserve them.

I came across a pair of jeans on the secondary market listed as FullCount 1011 size 33, but the seller posted a pic of the waist laid flat and a measuring tape— they looked about 31”. The rest of the measurements he allegedly took directly from a site online and they were good for me.

Only problem is, he listed them as Fullcount “1011”, but that model doesn’t exist. I said hey, 1011 doesn’t exist. Are they 1110 (tapered) or 1101 (regular straight). He said 1101 (regular straight) I believe. I was stoked, the price was great for NWOT, I pulled the trigger. got them in hand today. The waist is good, butttt they’re the 1110 tapered. Despite not being the style I wanted, The fabric itself is great— weight, color and texture is good, they almost feel like pajamas.

Fortunately I had a feeling they would turn out to be 1110 so I impulsively ordered some SDA 101 regular straight from BEARS while I was up late overthinking it last week.

The top block is pretttty roomy for me, particularly crotch and the space right below my ass. With that being said, I don’t like my jeans too tight because I am super active. I occasionally find myself cycling, hiking, or doing some bullshit in jeans frequently. I feel unrestricted in these and the taper isn’t as aggressive as my old sd-108 relaxed tapered or the SDA straight tapered d1828. He offered to let me return them, but I’d have to pay $10 shipping and I figure maybe I’ll keep them for when I want to wear a slimmer leg or gain some weight and decide to let my D1828 go.

What do you guys think? Does the fit look sloppy?

Edit: just found out this 13.75 FC denim will stretch a lot? Even if they aren’t tight and I don’t put stress on the fabric?
