Nobody has yet to state why they hate the fit other than the gloves, which are a joke. The jeans are called "super skinny" for a reason and the shirt is intended to fit very baggy as in a hockey jersey.

Way to miss the sarcasm regarding the gloves...

Rocking the fingerless gloves. Oh yeah... (That's sarcasm regarding the gloves, in case I need to point it out...)

Thanks for the input everyone, btw. I'm actually eyeing samurais for my next pair. As for the knee wear on these, most if it is probably from the indigo rubbing off on the carpet when I kneel down to take pictures for eBay (I do a lot of eBay...), so maybe the indigo comes off a little more easily from contact with other surfaces but no faster than normal from just basic wear. Who knows... I'll definitely go with the real deal next time though.

Are these the one?http://www.ssense.com/men/product/diesel/tepphar_jeans/32370

They are not saying it's the turbodenim

Yeah, I think those are the same, not sure why it doesn't say turbodenim on there. I bought mine from diesel.com though. Maybe Ssense just has a similar wash for sale there.

On my gf's laptop ATM, but this is my background picture (centered with a nice royal blue around it):

Makes me chuckle every time I see it. Running Fedora OS on a 28" Hanns G at work, XP on a 50" plasma screen at home (sit on a couch with a wireless setup on the other side of the room). 50" computer monitor = win.

Sorry it's kinda washed out.

I never heard of those Levis Imprint, thanks for the link. I guess the Diesel's aren't that original of an idea then... haha. In any case, I thought that they wear relatively fast, but they dont' seem to be "10 times faster" than raws as I've seen it claimed. I really haven't worn mine all that hard though, so I think it's probably still a fair amount faster than normal. Whether that's from some magic enzyme or just a weaker dye job, i have no idea. haha.

Idk if anyone around here would care about these, but I decided to try a pair of Diesel's new turbodenim (accelerated fading raws, they claim that they go from "raw to vintage in 30 days"). They start out as a basic indigo dyed raw but they're treated with some sort of enzyme that speeds the fading process. Not sure exactly what it is, but it seems to work relatively well. I guess they're kind of like the "fast food version of raw denim", as I've heard it put, but they're fun, pretty inexpensive (can get them for $150 from ssense) and if you happen to mess them up, it won't take years and years to get a good wash back. In any case, I've just gotten 34 wears in so far (no washes, soaks, etc) and here's what mine look like as of now:

Yeah yeah, everyone around here hates Diesel and these aren't very special yet, but these are going to look pretty sick after 6 months of wear.

Wow, just read through a good chunk of this thread; these jeans look amazing. How much is it at this point to get in on this and what would the wait be? How many pairs has he made for sufu people so far?
