_{Those were worn for about 5 months? The contrast of red becomes more apparent with more wear obviously.}

_{THANKS! Liking them more than I thought I would.}

_{hold on, i thought those were the red CORES, not red WEFT. the wefts dont fade as prominently iirc}

_{Those are the redcores, not the red weft and were worn for 5 months.}

1 Month on my fhxnfxty!

Looking good they fade fast right?

[LckyChrmsBBoy]

seems like it..my deep indigos wont even fade that fast. You gotta be in direct sunlight to really see any fades on mine. My E2's seem like they'll fade pretty quick.

Only been wearing them in the house laying in bed trying to break them in and there's certain spots where it's starting to fade. Wonder if my deep indigos would've faded a little faster if I didn't soak so soon. But those FH are looking dope!! wish I could have gotten a pair.

which should I get N&F Momo or N&F Oni?? Also how much bigger than tag are both pairs?? The momo's I'm thinking of getting are the SkG cut

looking good boriori, I've been wearing my nf x onis for just about as long and they haven't faded all that substantially. I wear them 7 days a week but I guess 5 of those are going to an office so they don't see a ton of hard work. the fades I'm seeing thus far are really cool though because they're awfully slubby and thus, tend to fade first on the raised portions of the denim. the vertical fading should be really nice.

lucky, I've never owned the momos but I've seen them in person. the denim on the Onis is much more interesting and I feel the the other details are fairly comparable but they do only come in weird guys. I ended up opting for a size 30, I typically wear a 29 in N&F but they're unsanforized so I figured they'd come out about the same after a soak. I they're a little bigger than my 29 deep indigos but it's really not that big of a deal, as I wear a belt at all times.

[lsinner]

Honestly getting momo or oni is up to the individual. Like the poster above me said, Oni's is very "unique". Personally to me, that is a bad unique. I'm not used to the "rougher" texture and the whole "sloppiness" of the denim.

If you have the opportunity to feel the denim then that would be alot better. The momo's are just like regular raw denims in my opinion. I actually wanted those over the Big Johns I got, since at the time they were both 109$ at Barney's. But like I said, to each his own.

[ac_slater]

I have skinny guy momos and they are different from most denim in the fact that they feel very luxurious and soft. They also seem to fade very well, as I am only a month into mine and already have some interesting fading happening.

So who's going to be the first to get the 32oz?

Well would soaking it help it contour to my body more? Thanks,

i just went crazy buying WGs.

should i start wearing Elephant 2s, Momo x NF or Big John x NF?

I'm leaning towards Elephant 2s for the rest of winter then transitioning to the Momo's.

We've sold a couple already. these are going fast and there isn't much left

[fuckcity]

So I purchased a navajo print slim shirt and just got it yesterday. Tried it in and washed it before a real wear. The should seam completely came apart. Anybody have experience with brand new N & F getting repaired or replaced? I know there was an issue with some elephant 2's a little while back.

[RawAsDenim]

N&F shirts are dry clean only (at least thats what it says on my 3), did you put it in a washing machine?

[fuckcity]

So Bahzad contacted me and has a replacement shirt in the mail for me tomorrow. He contacted me with a couple minutes so that dude is on the ball. Real nice fabric though. If I could sew id make something out of this.

[fuckcity]

it was machine wash but this one didn't say dry clean only like the other ones. my pinstripe denim is dry clean only and my oxford says cold water wash or dry clean. the navajo print doesn't have any care instructions

[RawAsDenim]

Ahh okay wasn't sure of the fabric on the navajo shirts

[Iwmmm]

Yea def don't wash anything in a washer pretty much.

Goes for denim as well.

Actually goes for kind of everything that is discussed on this site...

[fuckcity]

yea i do hand wash quite a bit but i think the typical construction of the clothing discussed here should be able to hold up to at least one gentle cycle machine wash. This was a random defect not a byproduct of being machine washed.

It's too bad these are a one-off release. I'd love to get a pair in the regular guy cut when it comes out.

Speaking of which, is there a date/ballpark for when the first pair of regular guys is gonna drop?

[ac_slater]

Despite what the tag says those are definitely hand wash or DC only.

should have took a picture in the dark..lol

[oilpit]

This...

The way the glow in the darkness relates to the fading process could be potentially awesome...

If anyone is selling anything in a sz 28-29 please contact me.

[knucks]

26oz progress. Lost some weight, they've loosened up. My favorite jeans because of the denim-geekness (come on, who needs 26oz denim?) but not my favorite because I don't feel like a supple leopard in them.
