dry the rain

price too high? i thought people would jump on this opportunity.

I got these a while ago in a trade but I just don't think they really suit me. EDIT: Pics below.

There's very minimal fading around the lap and back of the knees, i've worn them probably 15 or 20 times. Also a wallet mark in the back right pocket. The fading doesn't really show up in photos, but you can see it in the sunlight. A note about these: there's fading along the outseam of the right leg, right on the seam. I'm not sure what it came from, they got to me that way. Unwashed still and immaculate aside from what i've described. Probably stretched a half inch to an inch from the original size, but they fit me pretty bang on when I got 'em.

EDIT: $120 + shipping anywhere

Thanks!

the shadows from the flash on the creasing make the honeycombs look more defined than they are in person

don't mean to jack the thread or anything, but i feel like it's got to be said:

milspex, if you don't like what this guy is going for, don't comment. it's just unnecessary to hate on someone's personal tastes like that. that is all.

oh, and in the interest of the thread: my only problem with G-star is overbranding. so don't worry about it as long as you're happy with your jeans. the quality usually does seem to be pretty on par with diesel or something like that.

i think a dress shirt should fit slim, never baggy and bunching up when you tuck it in. and the shoulders should be right on your natural shoulder.

if you're looking for dress shirts with a decent fit, surprisingly express has them. I forget what it's called, but it's a slim fit, stretch cotton button up and they always have them in their stores. Slim across the chest and down to the hem (doesn't blouse out) and long slim arms. Check it out if you're not looking for thomas pink style high-end stuff.

kixslf: thanks man. yeah just picked up the vans for ten quid...its a sad day for good shoes when something like them is on mega-ultra-sale, but it also means cheap kicks for me, so i can't really complain.

vintage jacket

diesel tee

Julian Red Cali No Wash

Vans

What do you guys think of the fit on the Calis?

in my friend nick's room after a lot of booze and smoke, hence the dazed look in the eyes. (i've also got a really mild black eye around my right eye from playing rugby. not good enough to look badass, though

ended up trading these for a pair of JR cali's. so they're gone guys. thanks for looking, though.

jwied82: great style man. i really love good thrift store t-shirts, and slim jims and vans work very well. it reminds me of all the really indie kids i know from my home town just with better fitting jeans.

just got a pair of sk8 hi's on ebay. i'm not positive about the color scheme, what do you guys think?

I've already got a pair of black/black denim ones from over christmas, but i figured that the dark/light combo on the new ones would be a nice change.

pokpok: what sizes? any chance there's a 32 or a 33 that you might want to pick up? let me know.

thanks.

i'm pretty sure i own a pair. at least, it's last season, h&m slim fit straight leg jeans.

they're really nice. Obviously the quality isn't the greatest, but it's pretty damn good for the price (paid $40). they're pretty much what they say: slim, lower rise, straight legged (maybe a tiny, tiny bit tapered), button fly. If you can get ahold of them, i'd say go for it.

there's a pic of me wearing them in WDYWT.

hey,

can you email me at [email protected] with some other measurements:

leg opening, knee, midway down the thigh.

and did you measure the width of the waist by making sure the front and back were level with each other?

thanks!

75 pounds...plus shipping

just checking to see if anyone would be interested in buying these. i've worn them 5 or ten times, but they look pretty much brand new. no wear or visible fading, of course still not washed. thanks!

EDIT: adding some pictures now, and the jeans are definitely up for sale....

These are without the flash

This is with the flash...the denim still has the sheen it had when it came, just wanted to illustrate that:

near perfect condition on these, i just don't like the fit for me any more. my thighs are too big to look good in these...

madgrad: i've got the same jeans, i think. do you know if they're dry or if they've just had a weird process done to them? i can't quite tell (though i am getting some fading that suggests they might be dry). thanks.

those jeans look fantastic, it must be said again. nice job ande.

and breakfasteatre: what is wrong with you? comments like that just lower the tone completely.

jacket: vintage

shirt: urban outfitters (evil, but i couldn't pass up a clash reference. it says "pirate satellite")

belt and jeans: diesel

shoes: delta force

glasses: calvin klein

minya: thanks!! yeah, they're from the s/s 06 line...they've got the paddom (mine), shazor (lower rise but more flared) and onijo (lower rise than the paddom, straight leg) in unwashed denim, from what i've seen.

Handlethevibe: i'm 6 foot 1, or something there abouts....the jeans are listed 32 inseam but they run really long...more like a 34 in nudies or something like that

who got me into this: what do you mean by saying you thought you were bad? (just plain curiousity there)

i'm liking this board...lurked for a while, glad i'm finally making some sort (though kind of superficial) of contribution....

shirt: paul frank (don't judge, it's ok)

belt: diesel

jeans: diesel paddom unwashed (guess who worked for diesel over winter break!!)

shoes: converse jack purcells that really need a good break in session tonight

jacket, jeans (i think dry black), and scarf h&m

shirt express

shoes converse jack purcell

i usually don't rock this much h&m, but i did last night for a midnight walk with some people.
