^^^Word. I have my opinions on how he dresses also, but since I have nothing nice to say, I'm not gonna say anything at all. Because at the end ofthe day, he's the one wearing the clothes so my opinion is meaningless. Actually, there is no reason to publicly insult anyone's wardrobe. if youdon't like it....fine, shake your head behind your computer screen and keep it moving.

cosign. Stop with all these elitist comments. Let him rock orisue jeans if he wants. I swear, sid and kiya are like on every messageboard pushin theirproduct. I cant hate since they do have nice denim but the SExFH fit looks way too feminine for my taste.

Why all the hate? These jeans may not use denim of the same quality as Flathead, Sugar Cane, Samurai and other premium Japanese denim brands,but the denim looks decent and they are well designed; they aren't ostentatious and they have good design flow and nice detailing. You guys need to chillwith the elitist attitude when you may know what your talking about as far as denim quality, but know nothing about design. I wear Sugar Cane, APC, etc likemany other people in this thread, but I can also appreciate a brand like Marithe Francois Girbaud (NOT the urban branch, but the high end designer branch) thatproduces excellently designed denim. For example, do you understand how difficult it is to patternmake a pair fo jeans without an outseam that will look goodand fit well? Also, though you may not realize it, design and pattermaking cost a lot of money. It's a lot easier (and cheaper) to produce one model withthe same fit, same design and same detailing over and over again instead of actually producing new designs each season. Some of you need to learn how toappreciate both sides or stop pretending you know what you're saying.
 
Cool. And just as you seem to be clowning dude "cause he isn't up on Japanese Denim" I'm telling you that just like he may not be extrememlyknowledgeable about denim, you most likely know nothing about design. I know its your "PERSONAL OPINION." That's what an opinion is. If itwasn't personal, it wouldn't be YOUR opinion.
 
i didn't clown anybody, and pay attention before you run off at the mouth. i said in the beginning pages of this entire post that rule #1 should always beto wear what you like and is comfortable to you. and fyi i know plenty about design, it's what supports my denim/footwear habit.

p.s. although they are welocome in my eyes, difficult and intricate designs don't always equal better, Ralph lauren for one, has made simplicity andsubtlety damn near a benchmark in fashion over the past 3 decades

I'm sorry to break it to you, but there's no way you're going to get any wear on a pair of raw jeans in a few days. You should have justgone the hard-wash route if you wanted results that quickly.

Sup Y'all.

New to denim and I'm interested in buying a nice pair.Thinking about Nudies on Self Edge.I'm not sure which to get,the Slim Jim fit or the Even Stevenfit.I have 501's and Raw Slim Morrison's that fit nice,but I never tried Nudies before.I'm pretty big to so just asking which fit is better forme.And also should I start with Nudies?or something cheaper.

And hot soaking in the bathtub is cool right?
 
what your size in the morrisons and 501's? but from what you posted it seems like the even steven would do you better

Agreed (for the most part). My initial comments weren't specifically directed at you, so my bad if I seemed excessively adversarial. I like to argue, Ican't help it.
All I was trying to say is that people need to chill with the elitist attitude. It's one thing to say why you don't likesomething; it's another to just bash it blindly.

As far as design, brands like Ralph Lauren have been successful for other reasons besides purely classic design. Marketing also plays a huge part. Thisdoesn't mean I can't appreciate simple design, because I do. For example, I love most of Nom De Guerre's stuff. However, at its best design iswearable art. Unfortunately, 99% of fashion design companies constrain their designers by forcing them to simplify their designs in order to make theirproducts more marketable. The average person does not have a good understanding of construction, pattermaking and design and because of this, most likelycannot fully appreciate a garment that has all of these things.

All I was saying is that people need to at least try to broaden their perspectives.

Like the dudes in the luxury clothing thread that post up Gucci after LV after Gucci after LV piece after piece. Most of those seem to be buyig the stuffpurely for name brand recognition and status even if they don't realize it. It's funny in a way since many of the things they are buying have massivemarkups and are shoddily designed. Important, *I'm not comparing that stuff to the Japanese denim brands mentioned in this thread that produce well-madeworthwhile products*

i know exactly what you mean, while i'm was helping my friend pick up new brands for his store you would not believe how many brands called aboutsmaller spinoff brand geared to specifically seem like they are some sort of authentic true fashion designs and not giant machines, especially diesel, theycall every flippin day

has anyone actually tried the "denim recipes" on a pair of APC's (the recipe they give you)? has anyone seen a difference in this by drycleaning them for their first wash rather than a cold/warm soak?


kiya: if you were in Vegas this past weekend, i'm pretty sure i saw you at the Chanel store at the Wynn. if that wasn't you, it was your exact double.

if you're somewhere where you can try them on try the 36 in the even steven but from the gist of your post i think you might like the regular ralf more,specifically RRDS
