  1. Grapist: I forgot to ask, what shipping service do you use? I know you mentioned USPS Global Priority for international orders, and so I assume it's Priority for the US too, but I just wanted to make sure.

    UPS and FedEx can be a bit sketchy in my building (i.e. occasionally leaving packages in the hallway outside the door, no signature), so I thought I'd get a heads up.

  2. I'm 6'3" and they stack perfectly.

    if there's any chance you could post a picture, i'd really like to see the fit.

    last year i remember sitting there in a pair of second-hand, $15 ambiguous jeans i'd been wearing for over two years, trying to rationalize the $150 i had just dropped on a new pair of nudies. i told myself it was a one-off thing, just a cheap thrill, some overpriced jeans that would be good for a laugh and last me another decade. thousands of dollars later, i'm trying to conceive of the $340 diors i'm about to pick up. "it's an investment," i tell myself. "hedi's gone, last chance," that sort of thing. "only a hundred more than the last pair..."

    i think i need a support group. has anyone tried writing denim off on their taxes? "work uniform?"

  3. SOLD

    Just picked these up but the fit doesn't really work for me. Beautiful wash, size 32x34, brand new with tags. $100 shipped (US), PM me for international rates. Measurements: 17" waist, 12" thigh, 9.5" rise, 8" leg opening.

    Also, I know I'm relatively new to SuFu, so if anyone would like reassurance, my ebay ID is "muteprint", 100% positive feedback, 98 transactions. Feel free to message me there to verify. Thanks!

  4. Thanks for that exact measurement, TheGrapist, turns out I must've been pretty tired (or otherwise disposed) when I last measured, as I just took another and I'm straight 34. So I think the 31s will do marvelously - If I spring for these soon I'll definitely shoot you a PM about your proxy service.

    Still curious about the fading - I intend to wear these in a dressier context (well, early 20s dressy, for what that's worth), so I'm not sure I want any fading/distressing at all. Would washing immediately have any other disadvantage, fit- or otherwise?

  5. Is that Prada 100% cotton, or the 72/23/5 nylon elastane blend? Also, to verify, that's light blue, correct? I'll probably be interested once the price drops a bit. And I agree about the Gucci, though I'm sure there's someone out there who will float the $250. Maybe not on SuFu, but somewhere.

  6. Since the general consensus seems to be that the black raw doesn't fade much--if at all--is there any compelling reason not to just wash them right away? I'd prefer to avoid bleeding issues altogether, if plausible.

    Also, I've read through at least 60 or 70 pages of this thread now and haven't quite found an answer to my sizing question: someone said the 31 MIJs measure 35.5", is that before or after wash? 32 in Nudie BO fits me perfectly, so for a slim but not skin-tight fit, I'm not sure whether to shoot for 31s or 30s. Any thoughts? My actual waist is 35" exactly (6' 2", about 160lbs).
