I'm awaiting more info from coldrice and should be getting a LW hoodie from him soon... so I can compare the LW and Spruce... I can't decide between pullover or zipup though... I think I want it in that oakmeal color...

WHERE did you get your LW? And is it a LW hoodie? I'd love to see some pics of how it looks like.

Ron Herman / Fred Segal in LA... They shipped it out to me, and as you prolly know, I'm in the bay area, so UPS Ground took only 2 days...

Since I started reading superdenim, i've sold or given away all but one pair of my pre-superdenim jeans (Diesel, ES, and god forbid, 7FAM), and I got RRDS and APC NS right now and they are all I wear now... so I guess my answer is HELL YA!

I got my Spruce hoodie and I love it, and u gotta see and touch one to believe the quality we all talk about here (i was skeptical too, how "nice" can a "hoodie" get right?)... the zippers are especially cool!! some pics:

i like the shit at Recon... but sorry dude, SF isn't the best place to shop, not even close...

Selvage is rare here in the bay area, and also, I'd imagine the people who own selvage denim wouldn't bring their jeans to a laundromat.

I got a blue slim fit spruce hoodie coming in from fred segal tomorrow, can't wait to get it! been wanting one for so long...

I like the Reefs that got bottle openers at the bottom... Also have a pair of Tevas coming in coz I copped them for cheap at Amazon...

Went to Nom de Guerre in soho, saw Spruce tees, very very impressive tees! Didn't get one coz I want a hoodie instead... They got them at their Williamsburgh location...

This is cool, coz I will be in NYC this weekend but will only have about 4 hours this Sunday to shop, I plan to hit the spots in SoHo... I'll try to stop by Nom De Guerre also, I think I'll call them first to see if they got Spruce...

Cool images guys, another photog here, you can find some of my work at http://images.andrewng.com/

Man, all this talk on Spruce, now I really really want a Spruce slim fit hoody... Anyone knows where in NYC or SF or online that I can find them for sure?

trolls are back already! LOL!

wow, i'm gonna have to stop by that Bloomingdale's this weekend when I'm in NYC...

yeah, it was bad... i went to styleforum, it helped...

If you're relocated there for a job your company usually pay the broker fee... otherwise, CL is probably your best bet, you can set up a custom search and subscribe to the RSS feed for the results...

I really like these jeans, I am selling them because they are slightly too big, the 70E wash is stretchy; after a few days of hard rocking they would stretch out to almost 33" at the waist. So if you usually rock 31x30 in Zathan, these are for you! If you're between 30x30 and 31x30 Zathan, these would be PERFECT! I am also working on 2 pairs of dry denim so I don't have time to rock my washed jeans anymore.

I've worn them 4 times, washed twice with Woolite Dark. They are practically brand new!

I want $110 o.b.o. shipped.

I'm including some pics here, you can see them in their full-resolution glory at http://gallery.andrewng.com/FS_Zathan70E

measurements? I couldn't find any sizing charts...

and yes, at least for the green one, it's a bit less than how much you would pay if you add shipping to it from Addict's site. And the blue one is sold out. Also don't forget he would have to pay PayPal commissions and shipping cost. so give the guy a break!

i just go tmy first pair of rescues. They seem to be too tight. I know that the waist will expand but will all parts of the jeans expand as well?

Definitely!

that looks interesting... can't say if it's real or fake, not an expert... my regular 2B lacoste polos are made in Peru... the ones with the silver croc are made in France, IIRC.

Denim selections in SF are kindda limited IMO, check Rolo in SoMa, Villains Vault on Haight, Rolo in Castro.

For other stuff, I like HufSF, Recon/Nort. And there are LVC jeans at Levi's at Union Sq.

holy shit! that's niiice looking... always thought dior denims are overpriced but these look damn good and at less than 300 bucks they're not bad at all!!!

one question, did you starch? looks too good to be natural wear!! I need to get some starch for my jeans...

You workout in your jeans? interesting, maybe I'll do that too... I've done in once, when I first got my APCs coz I wanted to stretch them out quickly...

I've been getting my shirts from cafe coton (http://cafecoton.com/), great selections and quality, imo.
