Anyone have a favorite brand? I have a few, but I've recently been enamored by Oni. I'm waiting on my second pair in the past few months.

PBJ
Samurai
Iron Heart

So far…

I still think APC is decent but def remember them being cheaper than they are now.

This pair of PBJs I picked up instantly became my favorite material / brand. I've had raw Levi's and GAP, Unbranded brand, Naked & Famous, John Elliott, Japan Blue

I'm going to Japan next year for a snowboarding trip, gonna try to pick up a pair of Samurais or Iron Hearts and visit some of the shops in Shibuya
 
The Flat Head was my favorite but they’re not doing denim anymore apparently

The Strike Gold
 
My go-to is still Naked & Famous. I like a couple of their fits, they provide more information about their releases than any other brand I've encountered, and along with their core product they are always doing new and interesting materials and themes (including some interesting collabs and some that don't interest me at all). They aren't afraid to do stretch, they've had some great canvas and cotton twill releases, and there is always new product coming through.
 
I forgot about the Flat Head. Were they one of the brands in trouble for its arcuate usage?
I’m not sure, maybe that’s why they stopped making denim? Altho they could’ve just done away with the arcuate I’d imagine

They still make shirts/etc

They had the best fit for me and were the first 4 pairs of selvage denim I bought

Had tried a couple other brands out prior and they didn’t work out

The most recent buys were a strike gold pair that unfortunately doesn’t fit anymore and I never even got to the first wash lol

Also bought a loop wheeled hoodie from them, still wear it. Bought it prob 4-5 years ago

Been wanting to buy a new pair of denim tho, I’m out of the loop on recent releases

check out Blue In Green in RiNo, they have a lot of Oni, PBJ, Samurai, Strike Gold, etc.

They're having a warehouse sale this weekend, though not sure if its on all of the old stock / weird stuff

There are a few others spots in Denver that have raw denim, such as:

Berkeley Supply Co
M.W. Reynolds
Canoe Club (Boulder)

There used to be a few others, like Steadbrook - but they've gone out of business.
 
Thinking about buying some Evisu jean shorts
Should I size up or go with my normal size?
I should be able to tell you soon. I grabbed some from the recent oneness sale. I went up an inch since I've been growing a bit myself.

I think it also depends on the style of jean. Oneness basically only offered slim fit or carrot fit. I would've preferred slim but all of those were busy so I'm hoping I like the carrot fit.

Oneness sent me the wrong pair by mistake so I had to return them. I did try on the carrot fit in the sizing of the selvedge pair I should be getting in exchange. If you're worried about carrot being too skinny don't, I ordered an inch larger than my usual size and they were comfortable yet slim without being too skinny.

My wife actually remarked that they are baggier than she is used to seeing me in. I had to tell her I was sizing up to account for shrinkage and my own growth as I start to get into my later years (35+).
 
If you already know model and sizing.. i would try your luck on grailed.. really good option for cheap raws now

Facts. I found mine for $200 brand new and retail is $400. This model in particular was hard to find since it came out 3 years ago.
