Well, except for the excessive chainstitch run-offs they are a 1:1 copy of an existing Levi's jacket, so I wouldn't say they take it too far... because there is an actual jacket looking like this. No fantasy product.
Very late to the party...
Didn't really got the info these Nike Killshot 2 became available outside of J Crew and would be available in Germany. They were even on sale.
they will replace my Veja soon, as those are pretty hammered. Also same colorway.
I really like their flagship denim. Has some similarities to Denime's XX denim. At least in the early stages.
I also considered the 101 from time to time. I would probably really like the more medium rise.
