I actually have a pair of nudies on right now. I've been wearing a pair of Grim Tims since December 2020. Once I get home and get settled I can take some pics.
I honestly love my nudies. They've yet to rip on me but I have a couple holes starting to form so we will see how long that stays true.
I don't think I've ever done the double indigos.

I’m not stuck on nudies, just kinda always wanted a pair.
Kinda started looking on a couple sites, and forget how many different brands there are available. Would love some iron hearts, just not trying to spend $400+.

if you know your measurments/sizing,, youd be surprised how many people DONT and DO spend the 400$ on jeans that dont fit then resell em on grailed worn once for the low
i havent copped jeans but i def got alot of other expensive japanese heavyweight flannels for the low cuz i wasnt paying 3-400 myself for a plaid shirt lol

Here's my nudies bro.
My crotches have started to blow but nudies offers free repairs for life so I will probably send these in as they still have some good life left in them.
Was wearing consistently throughout the pandemic. Now they are worn less frequently but I still love them.

They look good. I aren’t nudies notorious for crotch blow outs? Also, I heard turn around time is kinda long on the free repairs…. But the free repairs are one of the reasons I’m considering them.

So I think I’ve decided on grabbing some new denim… now to decide what to get.
Any brand suggestions? Looking to spend 250 range, give or take. Not against double indigo, unless someone has had a a negative experience with it?
Kinda wanting to try railcar. Read that quality is pretty good, and they have some nice details.

3sixteen has been good to me, wearing a pair as I type this actually. Just looking for a different/new pair.
Current rotation is a pair of 3sixteen, and oni secret denim.
Also, I’m no denim snob. I just like how the raw denim wears over time.

i have a pair of railcars, i like them, but i'm also not a denim slob + like how they fade over time. i stopped wearing them for awhile but started wearing them again and i'm really liking how they're fading.. gonna do my first wash soon.
i also decided to go with railcar because of their denim services that they offer + they're local to me.

Unless something/someone changes my mind, I think railcar is what I’m going with. They’re about an hour and a half from me, so I’ll probably take the drive on one of my next days off. Being able to try something on is always a plus.

Looks like railcar is all of a sudden sold out of most sizes on anything I was interested in.
What websites y’all looking at when buying denim? Preferably sites that offer free chainstitch.

Check out Rogue Territory, ButterscotchLB, or Blue Owl. I think all 3 offer chainstitching.

Ok, next question…. If I end up grabbing new denim (likely) I’m thinking about a new belt, too. Looking for a minimal natural veg tan leather, $100ish range. Someone in here recommended Corter leather years ago, and I’m happy with it, however they don’t offer belts anymore. Tanner goods worth it? I have tanner wallet, and am happy with it.
Reading some good things on thirteen50, but it’s all from a while back.

I like Rose Anvil's micro-adjust belt design as well. They're in that price range, have a veg tan option, and a few different widths.
Naked and Famous also makes some nice leather belts. They're house shop in Canada (Tate and Yoko) also offers free chain-stitch hemming on any denim purchase. You'd be limited to N&F, but they've got tons of options, fits, and sizes.
Everyone's stock is going to be picked over at the end of the year.
