  1. raw denim is cool to talk to with other dudes at work and start conversations with customers, i see 50 pairs of apc's a day just at work, so fed up.

    if only i could work with APC's. i have some NC's that i am trying to work in, but i work with a bunch of guys who love their old navy jeans, and couldn't understand why i was frustrated that self edge was sold out of the FH F3001's when there was a sale. they just didn't get it. worst part is - my friends, whom are mostly artisits - don't get it either. so i just hang out at the local and only boutique worth going to in my area and talk to the guys there.

  2. no worries about the rep. i was a little embarrassed about my first post which wasn't well received. i was trying to post really quick before i had to work, and people didn't like where i posted. oops. so, i was a lurker, now trying to talk to folks who like what i like. it's hard to find folks who know what raw denim is awesome. thanks for the reply. :)

  3. i totally know what you're talking about. my nc's are the hardest to get off my freakin legs. the thing is, i do like the look and the two of the guys at the store i bought them from wear them and they look incredible - and these guys are by no means small - yet they are wearing smaller waists than me.

    besides nudies, my only other raw denim is the samurai usa model which is the opposite fit - so it's hard to compare. i am thinking of ordering some FH310's - i just hope they aren't as tough to break in as the new cures.

  4. ok - i am going to do that - cause i really like the finished results of these guys - so perhaps sleeping in them tonight might be an option. thanks for the help!

  5. How long have you had them..my size 30 are now closer to a 33.

    They will stretch.

    god - i have had them for like 6 months, but really about a month of wear because they're so bloody tight! i am uncomfortable - so tend to opt out of wearing them. am i doing the wrong thing? should i just grin and bear it?

  6. ok - so this may be the wrong place to place this thread:confused:

    i am a new user, although i used to jump around on the forum looking at the threads of interest.

    so here is my stupid question (couldn't find it in FAQ or the like) - but what are the boxes right under your profile that are pink, green, blue, etc.

    i gotta a coupla of pink ones after posting a question in the wrong place. does this mean i suck already?:(

  7. A while ago I bought some New Cures in a size 29. They were waaay too small but I thought they'd stretch out over time so I stuck with 'em. They have, very slowly, over the past few months, but they're still rather tight (the waist is just at the border of mild pain and rough comfort).

    If I soak the waist and thighs (where I want them to stretch) and then go for a bike ride in them do you guys think I can get those next few centimeters which are so crucial? Thanks! Any other suggestions would be helpful, too.

    OK guys - i am having the same problem with my new cures. my waist is between a 33-34, so after reading most of the posts on this site, i bought a 32, thinking they would stretch appropriately. but no. any suggestions on stretching them. i would probably sell them, but i had them hemmed. plus, i am a female, so i get the added bonus of having the curves when fitting in the jean. thanks!:)

  8. no problem, sorry I cant help with the question though. I don't own the 310/3001 types. If you want you can go to the "THIS OR THAT" thread and ask there or you can wait here for some one to reply.

    good idea. thanks again.

  9. hey ya'll,

    new here - but i am trying to sell my FH bracelet in a size medium. here is the stock photo link:

    ]http://www.selfedge.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=68&products_id=398[/img]

    couldn't publish a pic on it - not sure why.

    it's only been work a total of five times. it's actually too big for me :(

    if you're interested, pm me and i can send pics of bracelet. oh yeah: asking $50 - i think the original was $80.

    cheers!

  10. hey sufu again,

    so i suppose my screen name isn't exactly reflecting my latest and first post. in retrospect i knew i should have posted my question in this thread instead of the denim thread - ooops! i didn't have time to read the FH thread before asking my question as i was working all freakin weekend. :(

    this was my original question:

    "Hey Sufu,

    First post here. Definitely a reader, though.

    So, my question is what are differences between the F310 and the 3001's. I know that the 310 has a cotton/poly stitch, and that is a big difference - but I heard that although the fade on the 3001's is a little faster, the 310's hold up a little bit longer.

    Basically, does anyone have any experiences with both of the denims? And if so, can you tell any other differences?

    Much Appreciated!"

    ----pretty much the same question as this below:

    I tried searching through the thread but didn't really find my answer.

    What's the difference between the f310 and the 3001 other than the material?

    Like does it feel any different, fade any different, etc

    after reading the answers to this question - it seems that i have pretty much got my answer: no real difference save the poly/cotton thread and it's durability. i had just wondered if anyone had a preference.

    So - i apologize for getting off to a bad start and hope to get to a better one.

    BTW - most of the replies were helpful save for a few that were a little, uh, different.

    to clear up: i am a sufu reader, but i am still new a trying to figure all the odds and ends out. if i have the balls i may ask some questions i can't figure out -

    thanks.
