just to give some people a frame of reference. the momotaro 01xx fit is suppose to be based off the skinny guy cut. I recently compared my skinny guy indigo stretch 33's against my momotaro 32 jb 0102's. they are the exact same measurements. good alternative if you are looking for something different in the same cut. just size down probably.

be careful with the horizontal stripe shirt if you get one, after one wear, and wearing in a humid environment anywhere i sweat the blue bled into the white real bad. kind of unwearable now. the slim shirts fit me well but don't think i will buy anymore cause I've just had issues. I had a navajo shirt fall apart before even wearing. a replacement navajo shirt needed the seam at the sleeve repaired and where it is darted in the back is falling apart and just won't last much long. thats after only hand washing and wearing sparingly. my oxford and pinstripe denim slim shirts seem to be holding up but its too much of a crap shoot to go with these shirts now.

somewhat time-based question (and also my first post!)

I bought Deep Indigo WGs from Karmaloop, and they just shipped. Now Hypebeast is doing a sale and has regular Indigo WG here for $70 less. Worth it to switch? Or are the Deep Indigos definitively better? I prefer the look of the Deep but not sure I like it $70 more. Thoughts?

deeps are what's up, but you could have used a rep code at KL for 20% off. i guess return those and order another pair, code is "unlocked". you will have to eat shipping.

I bought from Amazon->Karmaloop, cause I had $100 Amazon Gift Card. So I doubt I can use the coupon then. :unsure2:

Sorry noob question, but just to clarify, do the elephant 2s only come in the skinny and weird guy cuts? Wanted them but was looking for a cut like the slim guy. If it comes only in those two cuts, is there any way to size either of them to get a slim straight fit?

Yea you can't get em in slim guy. My suggestion would be to find a local retailer who stocks skinny guy models and play around with sizing up if you want more of a straighter fit. See if you like it.

I'm not sure if this will get you want you want cuz I've personally never tried it myself, but that's what I would do in your situation.

Here's my N&F Greencast 12.5oz denim. Weird Guy fit, size 34.

Purchased a little over a month ago, worn hard daily. I work in these and bike all over hell's creation in brutal Boston heat. Surprised how fast these have faded in certain areas.

As you can see, the crotch is wearing pretty fast. Might be time for a wash soon.... What do you guys think? I'm thinking it would be worth it to throw it in the tub, I'd rather prolong the life of my jeans than hold out for "sicker fades."

weird guy deep indigo, 32. First wear. Hows the fit? Got them buttoned after a few minutes of stretching haha. How much should I hem for few stacks? Not straight legged, just not crazy streetwear style. I'm thinking .5 - 1.5".

since I've yet to see any faded NF x Onis, here's some mediocre photos of mine at a little more than six months. One initial hot soak.

left pocket faded from keys, much more distinct in better light.

left leg combs.

had a couple of wallets so the fade isn't as distinct as it may have been.

slubby, uneven texture leads to these bizarre fades.

these are a little big on me and therefore bunch up a bit in the waist with a belt. no big deal but you can see they fade at these points quite a bit.

The texture is something I really like about theses jeans. I'm short enough to have these fit right, so I might have to get a pair based off of what your look like.
