>>9091044
Gstar is literally for niggers. I would not wear these nor know anyone who would. Sorry Anon you made a mistake.
>>9091032
It's just nice to be warm during the winter. The fades are just a plus. Cleaner cut also. Tbh if you can afford them why not get them?

>>9091043
not everyone, dummy
>>9091038
honestly i'd rather wear hm than gap raws. not that i'd ever waste my money on either, because i'm not a plebcore loser/virgin like u :^)

>>9091074
>>9091089
I had already been looking at the acne site for reference because I like it, I might end up buying it. I was just wondering if what else there is, I had not paid attention to brands for the past 6 months because I wasn't buying anything.

>>9091100
There's outlier also. It fits ok. I personally like my pants a little more slim.

i thought sik fades was the biggest meme for fa as it was gateway for people to spend a lot on something obscure while looking shit in every outfit

this next to washing you raws is bad for fades and soaking in urine

Anyone have any fades on black denim inspo?

>>9091125
Black fades don't look good imo
>>9091123
You know you don't have to shit post :^)
Go back to spending $700 on shitty sneakers.

So this dude has a desk job and constantly rubs his thighs in prayer to the Denim Gods. Not only that but he apparently constantly rubs his dick judging by the crotch fades. It seems his dick tends to sit against his right left far more often than his left.

selfishly bumping this productive thread.

My Rogue Territory SKs come today. Pretty pumped about it. Don't know if I'm gonna go for sick fades or if I'll just wash them once every month or two.

I was just wondering if its a good idea to have raws when you live in a tropical country?

>>9091132

>>9091032
>2014
>still saying "muh"

When exactly to wash raws? I'm coming up on a year with mine but I hardly see any fades. Do I wait until they start noticeably fading before I wash?

>>9092177
Sure, just don't go for something really heavy and you'll be okay I mean all denim is raw anyways

sick fades bruh

>>9091068
w-what's wrong with unbranded? i got some raw ub 422 (tight fit) for $50.

>>9092222

>>9092225
wash when they're dirty you sick fuck

>>9092225
Whenever you want. The fades will be exacerbated by the washing. If you're really concerned, soak them in cold water with less detergent and white vinegar.

>>9092293
>>9092293
Nothing. They're solid for the price. Snobs gonna snob.

I'm getting my 1st pair of raws and can't figure out what a.p.c. cut is more of a slim tapered fit?

>>9090955
>>9090943
Which NF is this? I have a weird guy indigo 8oz and it's nowhere close to this.

>>9092225
wash them whenever you want. the longer you wait, the higher contrast the fades

i never understood why high contrast is supposed to be a good thing. its like saying the more bitter the IPA is the better it is

2 questions

How many inches should I expect the inseam to shrink when raws are washed? I normally wear 30" inseam, so I was considering getting raws hemmed to 32" to allow for shrinkage.

Also, how hard is it to get high contrast fades like >>9092193 for black raws? Should I stay away from cheaper (Unbranded) brand or is it just a matter of waiting a long time to wash?

>>9090995
machine wash ruined these

>>9093934
Word.

>>9093947
>8oz
LOL enjoy your sissy jeggings

How does the naked and famous weird guy look on the body?

>>9094188
depends on the body

>>9094196
I have short stubby legs. I'm looking for a slim look throughout leg and calf without stacking.

>>9094188
you can see how all NF jeans fit on their website from what I remember

Also do you guys dry clean these pants when then get funky or just spary them with Lysol?

>>9091032
funny meme dude

>>9092282
>all denim is raw

>>9092293
post fit pics? wondering about the knee down compared to their skinny fit
>>9093946
petit standard < petit new standard < new standard IIRC
try PNS
>>9094031
sanforized: 1 inch at most. if you wear 30", going for 32" is a good idea, because you can double cuff/stack, and if it does shrink in the wash, you'll still be okay
>>9094031
heavier denim (higher oz) = more friction = faster fades. unbranded is fine, but make sure you try it on irl and you like the fit. their "skinny" is huge on skinny skeletons like me
>>9094223
most people soak in bathtub. some machine wash, but you risk losing more dye.

Are All Saints jeans any good?

>>9095582
no

>>9095622
What do you think is better?

>>9093947
even though the anon said they're Elephant 3s they're actually Elephant 2s

pure blue japan claims that their nc-011 black jeans resist fading as its dyed with indanthrene. is there any truth to that?

>>9093946
>>9094257

Seconding the P.N.S. If you're anywhere near a store or will be soon though, I'd hold out and try a pair on. I got my Petit New Standards in New York and since APC doesn't exactly get much foot traffic they were more than happy to help me out and suggest different sizes and cuts before I found what I was happy with.

>>9091009
IT IS NOW

>>9092225
Some denim just doesnt fade that much, some denim needs to be washed and that kickstarts the fading

>>9090837
>>9091244
>>9091476
>dick fade
I laughed for a good 5 minutes

>>9091100
when you finally try 'em on, you're gonna be disappointed. uniqlo slims are nearly identical at 1/5 the cost of ace cashes

>>9098705
This is not true. I've tried both and the acne feel way superior. The material is denser and have the starchy feel of raw denim. Uniqlo on the other hand feel thin and cannot form honeycombs. They both have pretty similar color though but I think after trying on the acne I truly felt that they justify the higher price. You won't regret it.

The fade near your crotch makes it look like you habitually dry-hump stuff.

>>9096474

>>9091037
no its moustache wax for MFAgs who like to style that shit all ironic

>>9090837
Where are these from?

>>9091352
I got my friends into raws and fuckkk it's awesome.

How are jeans supposed to fit?

should they be extremely tight around the calves, or sit more loosely? I'm wondering because the petit new standard at APC mentions it being very tight fitted around the bottom.

>>9099237
Fit through the legs is totally up to you. Different shapes flatter different body types.

>>9099237
as long as you're not stuffing yourself into a pair of pants, it's all good. if you have any doubts, try on multiple pairs to confirm

G-guys I have a question.
I've had my Unbranded jeans for almost a year and to be honest they dont fit fantastically. They look great but my thunder thighs make them feel bad in the knees and thighs. If I wash them (they are unwashed by the way) will they get softer? They are very rigid at the moment.

>>9099297
I'm not really sure how I would be able to try on a pair from APC, the only way I can get them is online. No stores in my town sell raws.

>>9099321
Find a vendor with a free shipping/returns policy and order away.

why don't they make mens jeans with a small leg opening

>>9099331
Define "small".

>>9099306
yes.

>>9090837

>he fell for the dick fade troll

>>9099331
Apc pns has like a 6.5 leg opening maybe smaller.

cant believe the fags ITT defending raws

just buy quality jeans and don't fall for the raw trend mfa bullshit. raws are fucking terrible

>>9100473
But Acne IS shit though.
It is a bunch of fuccbois paying for cut and brand and nothing else. You could easily mimic the results by just tailoring a pair of jeans with that exact measurements.

Not sure what you got against unbranded tho. For 80 bucks it is alright. I haven't owned a pair, but what are you expecting at the price point?

>>9100495
>at that price point?

its parent company going on sale on every site it sells its brand on

plus that amazon 20% off

>>9090837
god damn, "fadez" and the entire raw denim fad was so fucking gay. thank god its dead
i remember people not washing their jeans for a year and asian kids using sand paper to speed up the fade process. it was so autistic and looked shit 99% of the time anyway

>>9100500
To be fair, I'm not a huge fan of N&F cuts. For me personally, Unbranded hits that sweet spot a little bit better. Although I get where you come from.

I'm wearing a pair of N&F right now though, the cut is less shit than their other skinny guys because it is actually a slim straight rather than a kinda slim straight

>>9100521
i explain the point of unbrandeds is that because theyre limited to retailers (UO, Blue Owl) theyre barely on sale, but because theyre the cheapest fashion foward raws (because only japs wear 501s) people buy them and invest all their time breaking in a pair of cheap of denim when they could of invested some time, some money into notch above unbrandeds like Crate, THMV (well eh) and of course N&F thats one sale on myhabit, gilt, karmaloop w/e

sad that unbrandeds fast fading properties is the basis of a lot of people when they could of done better

>>9100548
counterpoint: they are fucking jeans your autist

>>9100558
im wearing outlier you retard

Ay /fa/, can I get a little criticism?
Sorry about the shit shoes, it isn't my usual pair I just don't wanna get indigo on anything yet.

Anyways, these are Rogue Territory SKs. If I keep them, gonna hem them about 3 inches. Do they look like they fit alright? They feel mildly snug in the thigh, but I think that is normal due to rigidness. (maybe not) My biggest complaint is that they make my already shapeless legs look even less shapeless, and I should opt for a skinny fit with less taper.
Thoughts? Keep them, do some squatz n oatz? Return them, do squatz n oatz and come back, or legs are fine or something else?

>>9100698
Lol your right leg looks insanely wide compared to your left due to the lighting. hem them, looks fine

>>9100698
looks like you have no ass

>>9100698
they look absolutely terrible on you (sorry)

>>9100698
get em tapered tight

>>9100770
Ahaha yeah I actually think that is due to the fact that it wasn't sitting completely on my shoe. Thanks anon

>>9100777
I don't. This is the first purchase that I've made in a while that made me wish I was a little more fit than I am. So I'll probably eat some more and do some lunges and squats once I'm flexible.

>>9100846
No don't worry it's fine I appreciate the input (without being an asshole about it) Any reason you think that?

>>9100863
I'm thinking I might do that down the line but I don't know really any good tailors so I'd have to send them somewhere

Wow, edgy.

>TFW you will never have fades as sick as these

>>9102959
denim on denim tho
I also don't think those fades are very good fam :/

>>9101333
to expand on my earlier comment, they're terrible not because of your proportions, but because the way the SKs are cut (long, loose top block) - do stantons look good on anybody, srsly?

if you're still looking for a pair of jeans with room in the thighs tapered to a small leg opening, apc petit standards are the way to go, or check out the selection at denimio - japan blue, pure blue japan...

The only good jeans are waxed black denim or just black. Almost all other indigo jeans, even top dollar designer ones, can often and easily be mistaken for a cheap $40 Gap or A&E pair

>>9103974
Ah okay, I get you. So is because of the top block thing that is making my butt look so weird, correct? Would I be correct in thinking that no squatting amount would really remedy that in the first place?

Anyways, thanks for the advice anon. I see what you are getting at. I ordered them from Blueowl though, and they only really do exchanges which kinda sucks. So I'll probably throw these up on grailed or le dit for 20 bucks less and call it a day, and look elsewhere.

To be fair, part of me really wanted to like these because I like a lot of what RgT puts out. But can't win them all

>>9104020
Indigo or black wefts are pretty cool

End of the day nobody is gonna notice even nice black jeans. Just do it because you like it m8.

>>9091083
What

Okay, So I understand that everyone is not into the whole raw denim thing. However, what brands of denim are people that are not into raws but want better quality clothing than your average Levi's into?

I think Acne has non Raw Selvedge jeans but what other brands are good for non Raw Selvedge?

>>9104971
Levis Made and Crafted
Acne
APC
Our Legacy
Baldwin

>>9100600
that cuffing is retarded

i've got an imminent blowout on an old pair of dry levi 510's

what do i do

I think of washing my raws because I like the colour. Thoughts?

>>9105044
Google it rawrdenim has a good article on it.
Or just take it to a tailor. I dunno man they are Levis

one day my fades will be this nice

how do I prevent fades on my raw jeans? I like the solid indigo look with the heavy fabric etc. but if they fade heavily they're gonna look too casual for what I wear them with

>>9106313
soak em early before any high-contrast fading. don't wash/soak often.

>>9106313
buy levi's in rigid dragon pleb

>>9108104
Whats the name of that colour in Europe? Can't find rigid dragon's in here in France (not same anon btw)

>>9091032
Gap also promotes minimalist monochrome aesthetic too. So you're very right, both are very uneffay and played out
