These came to my mind, but they both actually have sort of a toe cap :

Springcourts http://tinyurl.com/o2u3l

Nike Volley http://tinyurl.com/op4z9

Straight Svens are a typical straight, regular cut, with pretty big and low pockets (as most nudies have). Slim Jims are way more fitted in the thighs, and of course all the way down the leg...

Do a search here, or check http://www.nudiejeans.com http://www.mynudies.com for some pics to illustrate it.

My 3 months new standards stretched a lot in the crotch, seems like apc denim tend to stretch quite a bit, so I assume your Cures will continue to stretch in stressed areas...

i just bought a pair of raw APC narrows. It says they are unisex so there is no difference between mens and womens cuts? They both use the same picture. They didn't have a 29 in mens so i got the 29 in womens. Should be the same same right?

Actually, the Cure is not unisex, as long as it comes in different men and women cuts. I believe the apc womens cuts are slightly slimmer, and have a lower rise (4button fly) than mens ones (5button fly). The girls cuts have also an 'F' on the size tag.

The new standard/standard cut is the only unisex cut they have. It's the same cut from 25 to 36.

I hope this is understandable.

I am randomly wearing these since many years :

Chanel - Egoïste Platinum

Hermès - Eau d'Orange Verte

Davidoff - Cool Water

Hilarious post Fuuma, and so true...!

Those Helmut Langs are just beautiful, nice job!

Acne Jeans comes to my mind... http://www.acnejeans.com They have many cuts, you might find the Max interesting.

APC Cures are also a good alternative, and Im pretty sure there are different washes available.

Diors 19cm are definately tight jeans... Luisaviaroma messed up the pics for SS06, it seems that they inverted pics of 19cms and 21cms...

- 19cms are really low rise, with slim legs, and very tapered down the knee

- The 21cms have a straight leg, and are more roomy all the way down, they are just a regular - low rise pair of jeans.

As always, the look all depends on how you wear it, and which size you choose...

Also, it seems that there is 3 cuts in DH jeans 21cm, 19cm, and "Tight" jeans also called 17cm (which are supposed to be even more tight)...

As for online retailers, I believe there's http://www.luisaviaroma.com , http://www.yoox.com , http://www.eluxury.com and http://www.brownsfashion.com

These look splendid adsurgo, great job.

You're welcome hap

By the way, strictly off topic but, I think you put up the mod look really well on the Superman thread ! (I let the author of the above mentionned thread doing the critique, Im no extreme-geek, nor swedish !)

APC made some for their spring collection http://www.apc.fr/eu/en/fiche_article.php?ref=1C019713258H with a more formal cut/design.

Also, I believe the term for shoulder tabs/flaps is 'epaulettes'.

You may find more DH experts on TFS & msn Groups...

Ive read somewhere that the smallest sizes in DH sometimes goes for the Japanese market, maybe it can be applied for jeans too. It can possibly be wrong though...

skecr8r posted some pics on Supermarket, don't know if it's still available though...

The D.A. : When did you get your pair ? My pair was pretty tight in the crotch area at first, but they stretched within 1-2 weeks... Wear them, they will stretch ; or wet the area you want to stretch and wear them while they're still damp.

poly : Well, I thought that new standards had a regular rise myself, but I guess I just like lower rise jeans

Im pretty sure Calis have a button fly.

Heh!

I never had the chance to see any online, unfortunately...

I know a shop here (French little city...) who carries Acne, and has the Mod Dry Clean, but one or two pairs left, no small sizes...

You can try your luck here http://www.acnejeans.com/retailers.html to find a retailer near you...

The Acne "Dry clean" wash is the best pair of washed jeans I've ever seen. Amazing.

minya : That's exactly what I thought when I first saw them in a shop few months ago, they're just beautiful...

Handlethevibe : I don't know if you had the opportunity to see them 'for real', but actually they look about a thousand times better in person than on the website (which is the case for all their denims unfortunately)...

In addition, I would say :

Acne Jeans http://www.acnejeans.com

A.P.C. http://www.apc.fr

Imperial Denim http://www.imperial.st not much on the website though, search for haptronic's posts in the 'What are you wearing' thread, his Dukes black washed are just gorgeous

Also, some Dior Homme washed jeans are nice, but really expensive for what it is...

edit :

I almost forgot the only pair of washed Nudies that looks right, Regular Ralf 'Authentic Deluxe' selvage... http://www.nudiejeans.com & http://www.mynudies.com ;

and Julian Red Hoboken Nikki Sixx http://www.fos5.com for a skin tight fit.

Gotta agree with hjj, Acne's dry clean wash jeans are the best looking non-raw jeans Ive seen... tried it on a few times, but they are pretty expensive in France (around 200€), I might pick them up on sale...

btw hjj, yours look great ! Is this a pair of Max's ? Ive only came across Mod's in the dry clean wash...

Edited by emuRay on Jan 18, 2006 at 06:34 AM

Actually, PG2G is right, the Hipster cut is listed as Women's jeans on apc's website, you can see it here http://www.apc.fr/us/en/fiche_article.php?ref=1C000512148F These are definately unisex jeans, sizes up to 33...

Edited by emuRay on Jan 18, 2006 at 06:13 AM

http://www.zoovillage.com has some FilippaK stuff, although I don't see any jacket that suits your description... remember zoovillage don't ship outside Europe

Check http://www.filippak.com for collections and retailers...

I posted the measurements of my 36" pair here, believe me, they're big : http://superfuture.com/city/supertalk/index.cfm?page=topic&topicID=6399

I don't have the measurements of the pair when bought new, but assuming that Nudie dry selvage jeans stretch out a lot, I think the 34 should be fine for you.

Great pics meditation, love the way your apc's came out.

Did you handwashed them in cold water ?
