how many jeans are too many?

to count, i currently have 7 pairs.

which n&f jeans are good for a first pair of raws?

>>8083185
7 pairs isn't "too many" per se, just unnecessary

People ask this a lot. I honestly don't think N&F's are a good first pair of raws. That being said, my first pair were N&F's. The fit is fucking wonky on all of them, more so the weird guy. The fabric is neat and outlandish, but I feel like you should look for more solid and classic pairs for your first pair. Rogue Territory is pretty dope, they have some weird aesthetics going on but nothing out there. APC honestly isn't that bad, a lot of "denim heads" will talk shit on it but I really like the notions on them and fabric isn't all that bad.

The reason I bring up alternatives is because N&F are notorious for 2 things: weird fabrics and weird cuts. If you're looking to get into denim, I just don't think it's the right way to go.

How to incorporate denim that isn't black into SLP fits..? I'm #TeamHedi 4 lyfe, and even though I have 5 pairs of black jeans I think people think I wear the same ones all the time... Their darkness varies and so do the fits a bit, but you know how ppl are...

>>8082577
I have these, one second

>>8083191
I started off with skinny guys, and they fit fine with some mad stax with a person who 5'7 like me. But what gets n&f a bad rap is just the cuts they make, the weird guys cut is a huge baggy tent mess that you'll need to require tailoring on.

check out some of oak nyc's modelling with indigo raws, it's pretty cool when it stacks over high tops/boots with a black top
http://www.oaknyc.com/raw-indigo-black-van-winkle-jean.html

I don't know what the fuck is going on in the op pic (mine are very very dark indigo, is this a new 2014 model?) but this pair is from last summer and this is all they've faded. Really high contrast fades, but not many.

>>8083216
What does the fit have to do with his question?

are there any decent cheap raw denim?

like < $120

>>8083263
No.

Cop or not

>>8083267
ty anon

>>8083263
not really. There's GAP but it goes without saying that that shit is not great. Denim quality is comparable to a butthole.

they look to leathery imo

>>8083280
>>8083284
waxxed? What look are you going for in general? And waxing denim isn't all that hard, so don't forget that you could just get whatever fit you want and wax em.

>>8083263
unbranded maybe

>>8083280
>>8083284
literally just copped these the other week. they're in the post. apparently they get nice fades that give them a leathery quality and they lose a lot of gloss. love the idea of sheen fades.

>>8083289
I'm shooting for the same type of fit in the pic. Probably wear them with some natural motions. Yes they're waxed, I love the whole shiny yet noticeably denim thing.

>>8083263
>I live near a Barney's NY outlet in Livermore, CA
> bought three pairs of raws (2 n&f's and 1 APC) for a total amount of 110 dollars

>>8083285
And why exactly is that a bad thing? Lol I dont think its that shiny in natural light.

>>8083327
its not bad if that the look you are going for

>>8083323
top kek
so bullshit

>>8083355
im goin there again in a few days im gonna take a pic of the tags/recipt and prove u wrong. just u wait

all of the denim nerd seem to jack off to 'electric blue' fades and shit I think they look trash

is there anything that fades to grey? something subtle and understated?

>>8084034
gross
blue jeans are fucking gay as fuck

>had raws for about 3 weeks now
>get mud all over side, not coated but some big patches
how do i clean tis off? i don't wanna wash them so soon but wearing them and waiting for the dirt to come off is gonna look plain silly

>>8083246

I call bullshit on that back pocket there is no way that is going to happen through any kind of regular use unless you have a deck of cards in your back pocket and someone following you around sandpapering the deck of cards in your pack pocket.
Fucking retarded.

Bought these recently. nonnative 5p.

I've got a pair of black Samurai 710s (their slimmest cut aside from the 3JPs which don't come in black) but I don't think they're skinny enough. Should I go to a tailor and get them tapered, or leave them as-is, seeing as I paid nearly $400 for them? Right now I pinroll them whenever I wear them.

Rear knee darts I guess are meant to prevent knee bags.

How's Carhartt for denim?

The store in Manchester has recently got some Raws in and I'm tempted

>>8086102
nice, where'd you cop it? nonnative seems like it's becoming more popular.

>>8086139
Yeah, the hype is real. Got them at covercord.

>>8086144
does their denim fit tts, or did you size down?

>>8086139
ya they got siqq shit

>>8086144
how much are they? I can't navigate moonrune sites.

>>8086158
Hmm, well the sizing is japanese sizing so it was kind of lost on me. Luckily covercord has exact measurements for them on the site so gaijins don't fug it up.

>>8086171
You can switch to english. They're around 200 bucks depending on your shipping costs.

>>8086093
They're what, 210 USD right?
Seems a little high for a 12.5 oz denim. How are they?

>>8086183
I like them more than my apc ps.

>>8086192
Is the quality a vast improvement? Mirin' those knee-seams.
My N&F Indigo Power stretch are kneebagging like a saggy vagina. I need to throw them in some water probably but I haven't gotten around to it because muh fades.

>>8083190
I have 20

>>8086200
I've only had them a couple weeks now, so I can't say much about longevity atm. They seem to be pretty well constructed. I haven't owned any of the GOAT brands like pbj or samurai so I can't really compare to those. My only complaint is that the selvedge on the left leg got pressed into a fold around the thigh, not that it's visible from the outside.

>>8086210
How does APC Petit fit compared to Acne Ace?

>>8086225
Not directed at
>>8086210

>>8086225
I think ace are skinnier, however they have elastane in them so they will get looser over time.

>>8086254
Okay, cool. I have Aces, thinking of copping petites blue. But they only have one size larger, do you think it will be okay in the waist? The Aces are slightly too tight at the waist. I guess I kinda answered myself.

>>8086264
I say your best bet is to either try them on IRL or look up the exact measurements. Jeans can be so finicky and after loads of returned/bad cops I've learned to do either one of those two things.

>>8086282
True. Fit really varies between materials used.

>>8086264
holy fuck, that's the funniest shit I've seen on 4chan in a while.

>>8086108
Try em on and tell us about them. I'd be interested to hear. Was thinking of copping the apc x carhartt raws but never pulled the trigger.

>>8083226
yeah i really hate seeing n&f that hasn't been tailored.


It's a great pair of jeans when you have them hemmed and tapered.

How come no one ever talks about Nudies anymore? They seem to have some really nice prefaded stuff, and I'm into that seeing as my only good raws right now are black and I don't really like 'regular blue jeans'. For me, nothing between the color of OP's pic and jet black really has a place in my wardrobe.

>>8086622
Cause they're shit for the price.

>>8086483
don't most denim shops offer to hem them for you? my local place advised that I wear them for a few weeks and once they start to gather behind the knees, to bring them back in for hemming

>>8082577
Also lol at 10oz being "lightweight" for men when the only choices for women at N&F are 8oz (as light) and 11oz (as power stretch)

>>8086099
I got my 710's tailored and couldn't be happier.

what are some good decently prized pants for people with larger thighs and butts?

>>8086960
Girls or boys?

>>8086962
guys

how do i make my 511s more skinny?

>>8086980
by buying 510s

>>8086823
Pretty sure pure blue japan has some pretty good women's stuff

I'm excited to get these in the mail tomorrow:

Anyone have experience with Momotaro? I've only heard good things about them.

>>8087100
look very nice

>>8087100
please post a fit when you get them!

>>8086071
No dude you're the retard.
I have had my current pair of raws since the start of January and a small metal nub on my wallet has already worn through, not to mention there is very noticeable contrast. And this is only for a third the time of that picture.

>>8083263
Levi's shrink to fit is raw and unsanforized

>>8087235

Shouldn't raw denim be a bit tougher or starchier though?
I literally have never experienced shit in my pockets wearing through my jeans ever.

Any thoughts on >>8087887 's denim?

im looking to splash out and get an expensive pair of black jeans, should i go with cheap monday or topman?

>>8088012

>>8088023

>>8083261

>>8088012
>this post
wow
10/10

5'11" 125lbs here

Recommend me some raws that are skinny without being skin tight. looking for black and mid rise.

>>8083263
unbrandeds are a great first pair of raws

>>8086960
I like my N+F weird guys. I tapered them below the knee though, they were kinda baggy round the shins and the leg opening was too big
