how do you guys like my fit?

>>9007139
Dope! Is that ur ridgline in the bkgrd?

yes

So you guys think tate and yoko will do that black friday grab bag jean deal they did last year?

I got a pair of flannel denim. They are dope, but I sized wrong, + they need a hem + taper

>>9007139

not bad actually

>>9007193
Thanks

Just copped 3 pairs of levi 514

>tfw basic bitch

>>9007189
>tate nad yoko black friday deal

deets? If it sounds good I'll keep my eye on it this year. Lucky dip denim or something?

can someone give me some input on rogue territory . . im looking into the SK stealth

-quality
-feel
-crotch blow out issues

i bought a pair of 3sixteen 220x and it took me about 3-4 months of daily wear to blow crotch

Does anyone else ever feel post-hem remorse? Whenever I get mine done, after a week or so I start wishing theyd stack more when i wear them uncuffed over sneakers etc.

On a related note, which jeans have the most extreme stacking? I've seen some pretty crazy Oni stacks.

Copping a pair of Levi's Commuter Cargo in black worth it? I like the nano coating or whatever. $60. Pretty sure these are no longer produced. Why? Not enough techninjas to sustain production?

>>9007249
Last year, they put up something for about ~100 bucks that was a "N&F Mystery Pair." Some people got some cool stuff. Again - I got flannel denim. I couldn't resist the mystery deal.

In general, I think everyone got pretty neat stuff. Nothing unwearable like a pair of pink denim or some shit

raw denim? what is this, the year 2003?
lol

>>9007266
w2c

>>9007260

I determine pre-purchase if they will be ankle length, cuffed or stacked.

Long inseams, thinner material and waxing (not sure) contributes to stacking. Also there is a J cut style that helps too.

>>9007256
I'm not personally familiar with rogues, so I'm curious to hear more too. But, just for reference, there are 3 things that contribute to crotch blowouts above all other things:
1- Size. If you size down or cop a cut that's just too tight on you (especially in the thighs), you're gonna lose your crotch fast
2- elestane content. Most if not all mid to high end denim does not have any elastane content (n+f is an exception, a lot of their pricier slim/skinny pairs use elastane), however, those that do are more likely to have crotch blowouts especially due to compromised denim strength
3- how you wear. If you adopt a more classic fit and wear the top box snugly around your groin area with the beltline up near your belly button (in applicable cuts), you're probably never going to have any crotch issues. if you let your jeans hang off your ass even a little, or just wear the beltline a little lower than intended, you're exacerbating crotch stress significantly.

Sorry if those were all obvious, just thought it was worth a post.

Also pretty shocked you have issues with your 3sixteens, they're some of my most highly respected denims. Sorry to hear that.

>>9007256

These can be repaired.

>>9007293
yea i bought them too tight for sure. . I popped the top button a few weeks into having them. . Owell they are the best pair of jeans ive ever worn to be honest. . If i dont get the sk stealths ill probably buy another pair of 220x and just size up 1 . . the material is so nice . .

>>9007290
I think you're on the money, probably best I pick my denim more selectively rather than trying to get the best of both worlds out of every pair

please yeezy teach me your stack magic

>>9007312
All a learning experience brother. Glad you did enjoy the 3sixteen experience otherwise though, they're right up there next to some lightweight momotaros on my denim buy list.

Any rogue owners in here? I'm still really curious as to how they perform, especially up against the big jp denims.

pic rleated, my latest cop. edwin slims

>>9007266
I never thought they were the prettiest pants, but they still definitely fall squarely in 'good' looking territory. I've also heard they're a joy to wear, especially if you're cycling. In fact I've been dying for a pair for a long time. If you can get them for 60 go hog fucking wild, that's a goddamn steal

>>9007337
take care of your shoes

>>9007337
im also like a 36/37 length you happen to know any brands that make chinos in that length?

and another note i live in a rainy place and my 3sixteen began to fade would you suggest using a waterproof spray on them?

>>9007353
I never wear indigo raws out in the rain, unless they're my beater pair, so I can't really help you there, sorry. I'd say if you wanted to be conservative with your fades just pick the days you decide to wear them out with a bit more scrutiny, or bring an umbrella or something. I know a lot of people might say this sort of goes against the whole appeal of 'the fade' and the denim culture but whatever, I know how it is, I like to break my raws in really slow too before I start thrashing them.

As for chinos, i was gonna say cats paw since they do a really nice classic workwear fit series of pants but looks like their biggest is around 34 inches. Sorry pal. Samurai are infamous for their outrageously long cuts, I think they do a chino? Have a google for it or something

>>9007337
Nice, those Edwins look good. How is the waist though? I bought some 28x32 Ed-55's not too long ago and they were like 31" on the waist; I ended up just giving them to my dad. Sizing whack is fuck

>>9007395
But they're just jeans? They're meant to get dirty.

>>9007409

It's not dirt and grime, the water will affect the fade.

>>9007409
>just jeans
>just

confirmed basic bitch

>>9007228
we all start somewhere :^)

>>9007256
blowouts can be repaired. but moreover you probably sized down too much.

>>9007432
>>9007395
dude they're just jeans. wearing them out in the rain isn't going to cause them to fade oddly unless you get literally gallons of water dumped on you every time you step outside.


>>9007337
pls for the love of god give your shoes a conditioning. i can just hear them screaming in dry, brittle agony with every step. nice jawns tho.


>>9007526
denim is love. denim is life. denim is the barrier between the self and the plebery of the world.

>>9007526
do you think theres anyone with a lot of money out there having fun with their time and living the good life is worrying about this kind of shit with their fucking pants?

How long should jeans be? Right now mine are just above the ankle even though I told the people below the ankle.

>>9007563
pics would help

Indigo/Indigo or Indigo/Black/

Either gonna grab a pair of USDG in Indigo/Indigo or Dark SKs from Rogue which are Indigo/Black.

I think I'm leaning a bit more towards the USDG. I think the blue selvedge is kinda neat.

But the rogues are put a bit better together, and also have some interesting fades. (Although not as bright)

Just looking for something darker to wear, basically between these two pairs.

Re-asking about sizing for DRKSHDW Detroit? Has it been consistent throughout the last few seasons?

save from 404

when are my fucking nudies finally gonna fade? i've been wearing them for almost 9 months now, almost on a daily basis, without washing. other than some lighter color on the thighs, knees, and where the wallet is in the back pocket, there isn't anything visible really. when the fuck should i wash them?

Bought a pair of dead stock vintage Guess? Jeans. So does anyone have any experience with long term use of Guess? Jeans? They seem pretty high quality tbh.

>>9007619
i love united's slight fit
i got one of the 9oz all black ones so I have no idea on the fit for a 14oz

>>9009571
I had a grey pair for 3 years in high school. They were my favorite pair but all I had was levis and wranglers.

>>9007715
all over the place get a boutique to measure them for you before you buy

>>9006535
anyone try unbranded 21 oz? im thinking of copping ub121 -- they're cheap as fuck at my local urban outfitters

>>9009549
Now is probably a good time

>>9009728
If they feel comfortable to you and you feel confident that you can break them in, then cop.

BUT I just send the elephant 4s back and it was like wearing cardboard.

Recently copped

>>9009884
Holy fuck

Thighmaster general

>>9009884

well shit nigga, did your legs shrink in the wash

>>9009884

Wyk 'bout self edges

>>9009884
dam, gurl you got some cute legs!

I know everything there is to it

F'edgin

>>9009738
how long did you wear the elephants before you sent them back, also did you get SG or WG?

Cha bastid

>>9009884
You're either very short or your jeans have an inseam of like 42 inches.

i wear levi's 510's but kind of want something skinnier (hungry-skeleton mode). any recs for super skinny black jeans around $100?

W⬆️B

sup /dg/

Where can I get a good pair of light wash jeans with stretch?

Thoughts on Cheap Monday jeans? my favourite pair i have are CM they were £48 and comfy as hell,

WTC slim mid rise jeans? everything is low rise.

>>9010464
love'em, quality isnt great but theyre cheap. wish they were a bit more tapered too.

>>9007619
Hard choice.

I would personally go black because those are what I want but I just looked at this album (http://imgur.com/a/l1QFO)) and the united jeans look cool.

>>9009884
Looks a lil tight, but if you're happy with that then just hem them about 6-8 inches or so, depending on how much stacking/cuffing you want.

How tall are you?

Should I go up on my inseam to stop pic related happening (I'm a guy, tho). Don't like how my jeans always ride up when I'm sitting, thinking about going up to a 32x34 and getting the waist brought in so I can live the glorious life of long-ass jeans.

Has anyone ever purchased the JB0212 Monster Unsanforized before? or Sanforized for that matter? Id love to hear about your experience and if the texture etc from it being unsanforized is worth the possible sizing issues, because i know im a size 29 in JB and it fits nice.

>>9010713

>>9010713
didn't buy your exact model, but i bought the blue owl X japan blue monster collab, just buy unsanforized and soak

the jeans are very slubby, which is different if you haven't worn a pair of slub denim before. it gets really comfortable after a week of wear

>>9009954
Like 5 minutes. I think they'd eventually break in, but it took me more time to get them off then it did to decide I didn't like them

>>9010793
JBO-404 bro

Post your fadez

I had to give my contest PBJs their first soak in a bucket today because my dorm doesn't have bathtubs and I am a plebeian. I can't wait til they start fading and look like the ones in the OP pic.

Nice handwriting.

>>9006535

I don't need anymore denim but, I need that fucking belt.

I have the N&F stretch indigo. I've heard from one person awhile ago that they don't fade easily. Is that true? I've had them for almost a year and there is almost no visible fading except the back pocket and recently beside the left knee.

>>9011229
Yeah, they are a soft denim.

I have indigo power stretch though and mine are faded pretty decently on the stress areas. (They look like shit now tho)

I wouldn't worry about it. Not ALL jeans need to fade mane.

>>9010682

My levi's in sung blue came today.
First thing first -holy shit these are the most comfortable pants I have ever owned on my damn life. I felt like I was putting on a cloud on my legs. My other 510s aren't anywhere near this level. Top comfy

Anyways, I'm a little worried about sizing. I still need a belt for my pants to stay up comfortably (although I don't think they'd fall off if I just was walking around) so the waist is SLIGHTLY roomy. Should I size down another size? They are pretty stretchy. Another anon said that's fine because it'll look more relaxed due to being a little more loose throughout but I don't want that section of the pants to look awful.

Thoughts?

Seriously though I rec these pants. These are amazingly comfy.

>>9011287

Yes size down. Mine were slightly tight before, now they are loose. I basically have to wear a belt now, not ideal.

>>9007285

sold out ;)

>>9011430
;-;

anyone else wear high rise/waisted? i cant go back to anything else anymore, it's too comfy

>>9011934
what jeans do you recommend with a mid rise? Do higher rise jeans look bad on short guys?

>>9011943

I think a lot of Naked & Famous is mid rise. I don't think the rise matters for looks, it's usually concealed anyway (on men). I would go with whats the most comfortable.

tfw - 32x36 waist is still loose around hips, and length is somewhat short after a wash.

what makes Acne ace cash's so great?

my black h&m jeans i've been wearing practically everyday are wearing out, and i'm looking for a replacement

i know that acne has been talked about countless times for the 'staple black jean', but i was wondering what else justified it's $200 price tag besides cut of the jean?

>pic is related (ace cash's worn for ~5 years)

I'm a touring musician, and I rarely get a chance to wash my jeans, and since I prefer a very tight super skinny cut they usually get stretched and worn out after a few days.

Anyone have any suggestions for a good black pair of super skinny jeans that will hold their shape and stay skinny for for a good while?

>>9012044
nothing, really. made in china with made in china denim, knock off slp cut that people don't want to admit is essentially a hot topic carrot fit. It's barneys fodder, the go to jeans for rich kids and moms who don't think enough.

My opinion? get something japanese made, and if you want the acne cut get it tailored. Black super skinny guys from N&F with ankle tapering would probably run you more than $50 and be overall a more solid purchase.

muh fadez

Best shoes to wear with light blue faded denim (slim/skinny fit)?

All I can think of is canvas high tops at the moment. Nike runners look alright too I guess.

sickkkkk

Do you guys really want to look like denim dan?

What's the sizing like on USDG 14oz denims? I'm a size 34 and wear a size 30 n&f weird guy. Should I size down on these?

I've been wanting to get real denim but eveyrthing is like 34-36 inseam thats way too long dude im looking for 29-32 inseams.

How is the fit on levis 501?

>>9012071
hey this guy's a touring musician, wowee zowee

raw debin is plen as fuck

>wanting to be known as the guy who always wears the same pants

>>9012071
if you want something that will keep its shape but is at the same time super skinny, consider some denim with elastine or spandex in it. N&F's super skinny guy power stretch might be good for you.

Can anyone recommend some semi-affordable raws that come in a 28" or lower waist? True size, not tagged. So far all I've found is APC and (maybe) Unbranded.
>tfw most brands' smallest size is too big
Being 5'6" is pain. Speaking of which, something with a short inseam would also be a plus.

FUCK /FA/ PANTS DRIVE ME CRAZY

I've got a job after being sick for almost 2 years so I'll be in /fa/ more often again. I have the following shit problem:

I have long legs and a goddamn short torso. Pants are driving me crazy. If I wear them normally (what should be at the normal position for normal people) it's sits fucking high. So I have to compensate it by wearing the pants way lower than I should. If I wear them normally I look like a goofy dude, it's like normal people are pulling their pants up.

Are there any jeans (or any pants) with a long crotch and ass area? So that I can wear them comfortably(!!!) AND it looks like I have normal legs?

does anyone know how to replace broken buttons?

>>9015429
I think you need a lower rise maybe?

Naked and Famous are low as fuck. Might check those out sorry I can't help

>>9015271
Railcar Fine Goods Viper fit,
BUTTTTT looking at those, they are some skinny ass fucking jeans. As in holy shit they taper down to like 5.65 inches according to blue owl in your size.

Just check blue owl. Or better yet, you can email Jay and see if he can make a little list of em all.
Honestly, you might look at unsanforized denim because a lot of them come in sizes that will shrink down to your size.

>>9016087
Not exactly. Some come in two parts and then you just snap them through the hole.

I think railcarfinegoods has a service that will replace broken hardware but don't quote me on that.

where can i find skinny jeans in this wash?

>that aren't "i love ugly" and have those artificial rips in them

>>9006535
MFA has a much better denim general that actually has helpful information.

>https://www.reddit.com/r/malefashionadvice/comments/gtbv4/a_notsoquick_denim_guide/

>>9016113
>railcarfinegoods

i just looked at their site and they dont have button replacement. speaking of which, anyone know where to get replacement buttons?

>>9016134
Who makes your jeans?
I bet if you email the manufacturer, they could hook you up with some hardware so you don't have something like railcar buttons and then n&f buttons at the same time. (That'd bug me)

>>9016120
yeah, no complains here. OP here, I agree that leddit's got some decent guides. And honestly, /r/rawdenim is a pretty good community, where people aren't afraid of paying a little more unlike MFA.

>>9016143

i've actually gotten some buttons from Unbranded, but they;re not quite the same. Also, i needed 1 large button and 1 small one and they sent me 2 large ones

>>9016118
That wash is terrible and screams arab

My dad told me that when he was a teenager everyone he knew would wear their jeans wet after washing them to make them fit better, is this a bad idea?

>>9016184
You'll get knee bags if you move.

i wear 32 x 32 and am really skinny (wide hips)

i can't find a pair of jeans that fit properly for the life of me
levis 510 USED to be perfect until they completely trashed the jeans with a new redesign and shittier quality material

i've tried APC petit standard & petit new standard, naked & famous, april77, uniqlo but they all either fit like shit or had terrible color patterns (uniqlo)

i need a basic pair of skinny jeans for fucks sake, i'm stuck to wearing a pair of black skinnies from h&m from the past 2 god damn years, and i can't find anything else that fits like them on me

>i'm not going for a 'super skinny' look, but i need super skinny jeans to make it appear slim tapered on my awkward proportions, pls help

>>9012367

boot cuty but comfy. for when you don't want skinny jeans and want to go more normal

Best fit for a 5'10" hungry skeleton?

>>9016299
Railcar viper fit maybe

looking at them though, they are some really skinny fucking jeans so tread with caution

my cm skinnies, that i bought like 3 years ago, are starting to fall apart

have they changed in quality or something or should i just get a new pair

they were perfect

>>9017118
pockets have gotten shittier, thats it

what denim from Acne is worth copping if I already own a pair of ace cash's

n&f - weird guys, looking to cop something close to my levi 514s. should i? 100$ shipped right now, willing to spend more if there's any recommendations

Where can I find better denim that fits like APC PS?

Thank you in advance, fellow anons and tripfriends

what do you think of my pants? i just cut them, i think they look decent with high socks

>>9018757
Rogue Territory SK I think has the same fit

>>9018765
i've got god in a shoebox under my bed waiting for my finger

is this good practice?
am i somehow damaging the superior nippon denim?

>>9012367

>>9022429
For the price? Rogue Territory SKs might be good and are in a similar price range.

I don't know the exact measurements of the Max Cash but I would assume that it is a skinny taper. the Sks are a lot roomier in the thigh so those might be good
