Warehouse or Samurai, for sure. Classic cuts, extremely high quality denim, and all the necessary detailing: back pocket rivets, selvedge, raised beltloops, non-felled inseams. Warehouse is more conservative in their styling but both can be dressed up or down.

Thanks, I've been in the Japanese Denim game for years now so I have a pretty decent sense of what makes a good pair of jeans though I'm still no expert. These are my rankings for brands I've tried.

High tier:
Samurai: Arguably the pinnacle of japanese denim. Huge variety, so they have the fit/cut/weight/details for everyone. Can be difficult to find domestically, so Rakuten is recommended if you don't have >$300
Flathead: Legendary fades, also makes fantastic shirts with some really nice details like mother-of-pearl or obsidian snaps. They are also the only denim retailer that consistently manufactures zippered styles which appeals to some.
Warehouse: Durable and very reasonably priced for what you're getting. A lot of retailers offer lifetime repairs, so shop around. A good baseline if you don't know what to pick.
Iron Heart: The best choice for heavyweight. A pair of 634S could easily last the rest of your life just by taking care of the crotch and hems.
Pure Blue Japan: Legendary denim, characteristically "slubby" meaning uneven, with some interesting options such as blue warp and weft

OK Tier:
Strike Gold: Unimpressive fit, denim similar to but less interesting than PBJ
Dry Bones: Great denim and detailing but weird fits, rises so low castration is easier
Levis STF: Cheap, for a reason. Missing most details, not even with button fly, but with the fit right can look as good as a $200 pair of jeans treated correctly

Shit Tier:
Nudies: Don't let the marketing rope you in. Low quality denim with ugly fades, poor detailing, construction. Fits are god-tier off the rack but won't last a month
APC: Unsure if these are still popular but were the top choice for babbys first raws in the past. Ugly steel blue color, stupid thin beltloops, retarded sizing nobody gets right even instore, needs repairs extremely quickly, front pockets too shallow to hold even a pen, they basically exist just for show.

Wishlist:
Denime
Fullcount
Real McCoy
Skull
Evisu

For the most part it is, but Flat Head for example is known specifically for having high-contrast vertical fading which is what interests most people in raw denim in the first place, to be fair. Nudies on the other hand don't fade very strikingly but sell lots of pre-washed jeans to promote that part of their brand. But I tried not to focus on fading for my post because I agree that it's the most variable part of the experience.

It's possible they changed them since the last time I had a pair from the brand. I had a pair of New Standards and the front pockets were so short I could barely fit two knuckles into them, and my phone and wallet would peek out the top of my rear pocket. Never tried petit standard and unlikely I ever will because of my negative experience with their NS.

[Anonymous No.10427914]

>>10427888
The majority of Naked & Famous are shit, some of what they put out can be mid tier. Their less fashion-forward stuff can be a reasonable value even though it won't match up to a true pair of Japanese raws.

Don't know anything about Rogue Territory firsthand, sorry. From skimming their website some of the details were nice and they hit the two most important ones (selvedge, rear rivets) but I don't think the beltloops were raised which I'm a huge fan of though at least they are sewn into waistband. The denim itself is likely nothing special, probably midtier overall. They looked pretty unremarkable and didn't offer anything I couldn't get somewhere else for the same price.

[Anonymous No.10427971]

>>10427933
Again, no firsthand experience so this is just judging on my impressions looking at the page for "Ace Raw Gothic" on their website.

Possibly midtier, likely shittier. Fairly fashion-forward and more concerned with making a "fashionable" cut/fit than high quality garment. The distinction is kind of hard to pin down but there are some giveaways. They don't have backpocket rivets or many other details, which are generally a good indicator of quality because rivets in particular significantly increases the amount of time it takes to make each pair of jeans, and since it's a fairly difficult process the overall manufacturing quality is generally higher. They don't show any pictures besides fit pic, so you don't get any look at the interior quality stitching/denim weave/detailing/selvedge line. They don't spend any time covering denim weight or origin and it's not 100% cotton so the quality is likely mediocre at best. The price of 220 USD is frankly ridiculous for what you're getting. When you can buy this for $170: http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/hinoya/item/900_or/ or this for $190: http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/bears/item/skulljeans-5010xx/ (pics are unhemmed btw) both exceptional pairs of jeans and have money left over so I wouldn't recommend acne unless there's something I'm missing completely about the brand.

[Anonymous No.10427981]

>>10427952
Try a pair of looser-fitting warehouse or samurai. Measure your existing jeans to get a baseline, and if its your first time ordering online order a size larger than you think you need as a rule of thumb. Loose is ok, too tight sure as fuck isn't. I'm rocking a pair of organic cotton samurai 5000s at the moment and the fit is very relaxed - I've put on 10LB in the past month (whiskey and bacon will do that quickly) but they still fit without any issues, probably better than they did without the weight even though it's not my goal.

U kidding? Selvedge denim is more popular than it has been in probably the last 40 or 50 years since Levis sold off their old shuttle looms. It used to be 10 years ago that ANYTHING selvedge automatically meant it was high quality, that you can even find poor quality selvedge now because people want to show it off with a cuff says more about its popularity than anything.

>>10428011

Nothing is "wrong" with them per-se. It's not like your jeans should have any chance of splitting apart at the seams regardless of how they were constructed. It takes more skill to perform a single stitch than a felled seam so again, it's generally indicative of higher quality even though it's not a high end detail. Felled seams are not as appealing to most people since it alters the way the jean is constructed and how it fades in a number of ways, also it looks a lot nicer to have a single stitch than "faking" it as many felled seams do with a single contrast stitch and the rest of the stitches meant to match the denim color.

3Sixteen is a good midtier option. Reasonable details, reasonable quality denim, not a fan of their 6-beltloop design (two on the rear), but decent overall and can be found on sale as low as $100 with luck.

I have a pair of their khaki denim which is great in summer because it's pretty lightweight. I think most of their jeans are 14oz though which is pretty standard for year-round wear.

>>10428567
Also on my wishlist (I ran out of post space). It looks like they have great details and a fantastic price, so the denim is probably pretty run-of-the-mill (yuk yuk yuk) but a great choice for the price.

Levis 511 raw. If you go up to $150 you could probably find something good on eBay that's only been worn once or twice because they missized it.

>>10428846
You are not paying for the name AT ALL with these brands. They're pretty much unknown outside of japan and even there are pretty niche. Outside of rear arc designs it's pretty much impossible to identify them on the street. You can get cheaper pairs, sure, but you'll be skimping on something. Seriously, these are a nearly unbeatable value http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/hinoya/item/900_or/ at $170. You can spend $350 if you want but you'll be getting something really special like a limited edition pair of extra heavy Iron Hearts, gold plated anniversary Samurai, Flat Head collaborations, or other things that increase cost for a small run.

To intimate that I don't know my shit when it comes to denim is insulting. "Japanese Denim" as a meme is that shitty brands will claim that their jeans are "made with japanese denim" and the consumer falsely expects the quality to equal top brands due to the country of origin. Stay mad with your APC french trash.

They might complain. Most tailors are not really all that good at doing stuff beyond a simple hem when it comes to jeans.

I bought 3 meme-religions one dark black with red sewing, one transient blue and lastly a darker navier jean for whatever

Also bought G-Star fucking washed out, they looked nice tho for $160

Should I kill myself, or resale it and scalp a ghetto nigga on craigslist/grailed?

The main thing is to find raw that fits properly in the rise, seat and thighs. Everything from mid thigh down including i.e. the knee calfs and hem can be altered easily and affordably by any tailor. Make sure to have them taper from the inseam and not the outseam if you care about keeping the selvedge tag intact. Pants as shown can easily be altered to look less dadcore and more modern.

Im a guy with an "hour glass shape", my waist is skinny but I have huge ass and thighs. It's pretty hard finding slim tapered jeans that isn't too tight and fits comfortably.

The best jeans I've found is Levi's 522. The high rise I think is the key to it being comfortable.

Anybody have other slim jeans recommendations for guys with tiny waist but big ass/thighs?

Vintage cuts like 1966 is probably your best bet. Sugarcane makes lots of repros, Warehouse and Denime make cuts that are "near repro", not the exact dimensions of Levis but should have some reasonable options.

I have some, they are not very rigid and they take a long time to fade. Also, the straight ones need to get tapered because they are too baggy.

Is rakuten the best place to get from, also can you rec some stores and nice tapered styles in samurai/sugarcane/warehouse? Are there any good raws for $100~?

[Anonymous No.10431704]

>>10431665
Rakuten will have the largest selection and best prices since it's an aggregate retailer so there's the most competition. I don't know what tapered styles are available offhand because I usually wear straight cuts. Your best bet is to just take your time and browse until you find a style you like. I know that sugarcane calls their models the year of the levis cut they're imitating, samurai and warehouse modelno are specific to the brand.

As previously noted, Japan Blue and Kojima are two brands that offer a good selection of styles for around the $100 mark.

So I tried the raw denim thing last fall with some cheap levi 505s in rigid (no bully pls, they were <$30) and wasn't a big fan but I want to try it again since I can't find blue jeans with fades/washes I like. Main issue was that I felt like an idiot wearing jeans a size too big for several months so I'm leaning towards a reasonably priced sanforized pair. Looking at the unbranded skinny or taper since they're the only ones in a brick & mortar near me but do you guys have any more reqs? I read the thread and I don't want to drop three figures on jeans I haven't tried on, e.g. Japan Blues.

There aren't a ton of options for slim/skinny raws in the sub $100 range to begin with, even less when you have to try them on. You could look at uniqlo offering, also sometimes gap does selvedge runs but neither are great and usually aren't very stiff or with particularly interesting denim since they're made with mass-market appeal in mind.

Why is denim so fucking complicated?

I just want one black and one blue pair of raws, that are loose enough to squat in (I wouldn't obviously work out in them I just don't like wearing super tight jeans) while still being nicely tapered below the knee. That and overall minimal detailing in terms of stitching and the like.

Is that so much to ask?

copped two pairs of april 77 jeans in their destroyer fit awhile back when they had a sale. really nice fit if you're skinny, and they seem like decent quality, though I've only had them for a few months. they're not raw but they've got that nice stiffness to them so you get stacks instead of flops.

also bought a pair of raw indigo jeans from llbean in slim fit. they are surprisingly nice, given they were on sale for $50.
