Where are you from? If worse comes to worse you can take your own measurements and compare them to what you may consider buying and make sure they have areturn/exchange policy.

question...

how much do you think it would be to tailor a pair of jeans like 2cm skinnier?

 

[drama23]

i just copped a pair of nudies avg joes for 120 from barneys co-op sale. it was a 1 day 40% off everything in store. anyone else go? they had prp jeans.. ijust couldnt afford to drop even with 40%

I'd go with APC's. I just like the overall quality better than nudie.

Ro0ts- What sz are thoes dukes?

omgitswes peep this

TheI4LW- there 10000000000000% legit call the store and he whats up

 

[omgitswes]

why are they sized so weird? i wear a 33/34 in the waist and a 33/34 length.
if i'm reading it right the only way i can get the length right is go up a size in waist, and to get the waist right i gotta go down a size in length.
i'm talking about on context clothing btw the APC Rescue
http://www.contextclothing.com/item.php?id=7
i can't do skinny jeans they don't last very long. so any more straight leg recs would be appreciated. really not trying to go over 200 for one pair ofjeans though
really wish there was a way to try these on before buying them

 

[mastamind89]

omgitswes- Raw Denim stretches out and APC's stretch out a lot. But if you really have too, you can get denim tailored.

Nudies Easy Emil's are good if youre lookin for a looser fit (i'm 6'1'' 235 playing o-line so i need pants that won'tstrangle my legs) i switched up to these for the summer cause nudies denim is a little lighter than the apc NS's i was wearing through summer. and thesoftness of the denim'll fell alot nicer when the denim is broken in

Copped these yesterday:

Citizens Of Humanity - Sid Leisure
Nudie - Average Joe Dry Heavy

ALL APC IS 34 LENGTH NO MATTER THE SIZE OR CUT.
With that said, get at me for APC needs

[ghostrideit]

How do you guys get raw denim to fade like that? It's

and now I'm considering doing it, rather than buying pre-washed jeans.

 

[cucumbercool]

I found it a little bit more difficult to get combs and stacks on my cm's but after around 5 months it is getting there. Fades seems impossible howeversince they are dark faded :/
How much slimmer are grims, ps AND ns compared to slim jims because I hate the flared leg on my sj and thought to alter them to one of the 3.

Time

Gotta wear them for a while before soaking them so all the indigo fades away making the honeycombs and whiskers everyone wants.

Mek is usually a predistressed and washed style of jeans. Usually sold in Buckle I think. Different strokes for different folks. I highly SUGGEST wearing aLevi's over these. Levi's willl be timeless, and come with varying styles and cuts and embellishments(fenom disco). The MEK back pattern suggestsdouchebaggery and "edhardy/tapout/affliction" affiliation in my opinion. But that is just my viewpoint.

Price may be an issue for many higher end jeans, especially in the raw department, but most of the time, it is justified in the details. Lots of times it isalso in the cost of scale of production that raises the price too.
