What are you doing? ^^^

...or pay 850 USD (or 650€!) for this:

It says $899 to me. I would neverrrr pay that.

Definitely the Indys.

These are awesome. Pricing?

Anyone else having trouble wearing their contest jeans due to the heat? I am in Florida and it's been so hot since I got them.

Wear them anyway. I wear my 22ozers all day.

This is a cool idea. But, idk if it will compete with the hardcore contests we have on SuFu. For the crowd you seem to be tailoring this to, it will work well and I think it's great to educate new denim heads. But, SuFu isn't really the place to look for people who know nothing of denim. If I lived in Edmonton, I'd be all over this. Overall, Great idea bro. Good Luck.

Don't try and "create" your creases... That's retarded. But, it will make the denim softer and more form fitting which, in turn, creates better fades I suppose... It's for comfort and fit though man.

I know this is somewhat of a vague question but does anyone have any suggestions on a more "dressier" looking denim? something like the helmut lang straight legs? I'd go for those but kinda hard to find a pair...

Edwin sen black skinny raw. trust me.

first day

Great product. Just received my wallet. Don't wait around. Buy this mans stuff.

You want to get rid of the old layers of polish first, though by using shaving cream and steel wool. Once that's all stripped, let dry and apply polish and buff. I'd then start spit shining the entire boot. I would only do the toes when I was feeling lazy. It would take at least five coats before I started getting a decent shine. After that, they got only one layer of shine after work in perparation for the next day. I would do this for a few weeks/month before stripping them and starting over...or when the polish started to flake really bad.

Oh the good ol' days...

We just paint over dust in the Navy brother hahaha

Thanks. Soon enough I'll fix them and they won't have that gash. Until then, I think they're doing fine.

Excuse the bad gash on the toe. I do wear these M-F since december.

Bates 922 with full color reflection in the shine and hardly any visible pores (I get too bored to finish them sometimes). Enjoy.

at least not as badly oversized as your pic is....

Oooo burn. hahahaha

Just wanted to add 1 more sizing datapoint:

To get a sufu slim fit, buy the pair that is uncomfortable and perhaps not even buttonable all the way.

To get a "normal" slim fit, get the one you can button all the way and doesn't kill you.

Also - these things stretch way more, say, than my Naked and Famous Weird Guy.

Exactly... they stretch.

So, this post is FAIL.

only 800. nice. I have the yellow gold

I'm glad this hell of a summer is winding down here in Texas, I can finally wear my Eternals again I think like mid march was the last time I wore em. They look so new still

That's no excuse =) Heavy denim all day here in San Antonio man.

Good price bro.

Judging by the measurements; I don't know by experience, there doesn't seem to be much of a taper to them. After a nice soak, and possibly sizing down, you should be able to get a nice slim straight fit out of them.

I'm looking for some new denim that fits similarly to APC's new cure (definitely not skinnier) that is a bit more durable. Price isn't a huge issue, what do you guys recommend?

selfedge.com

Look around =) find something with similar measurements and just account for shrinkage and you're good to go.

That burrito looks familiar =) where are you from?

Narrative

Edit: For further background, I work in an Electronics Engineering environment, supplying military and civil aviation contractors. We have a full engineering plant on site, although I work in the more delicate field of micro electronics.

Makes me wanna put my boots on here =) You guys have never seen a shine.

except you can blame them....

I suppose that's true.

Pretty disappointed with Levis for launching this "Made Here" line while simultaneously opposing minimum wage increase in Haiti. It makes their occasional dedication to US made goods feel pretty empty.

Sorry for the off topic/rant.

Yes. I, myself haven't researched that but it does seem to fit in with Levi's. They should've stayed making all their clothes in the US in the first place but they're just like other companies (can't say I blame them) and it's all about the money.
