  1. Wearing APCs Petite Standards for years now and planning to step up a little in quality raw denim. Hate how the stitching comes off and that these seem to be made somewhere else and worse each season.

    Is there anything better with a similar fit. Means hem should be <=7 inches + tight seat area.

    Rogue Territory SKs where to wide in the seat are because i am really skinny.

    Thought about:

    3sixteen ST-100x

    Japan Blue JB0101

    Big John x Tenue de Nimes 1968 Pocket Shape

    Nudie Grimm Tims and Naked & Famous Skinny Guys are no step up i guess but fit is also what i would need.

    Any help or opinions would be really appreciated.

    3sixteen is probably the best bang for your buck on the list.

    though, imo, NaF isn't anything to tip your nose at. It really depends WHICH jean you get as far as quality goes. Try and find a pair of Indigo/Indigo or one of their collabs for best quality.

  3. I really want a pair of NaF slubby indigo/indigo selvedge to add as my main raws (instead of the hemps)

    4 to 7 pairs.

    LVC 1950s 501s distressed denim

    Naked and Famous Hemp Selvedge

    7fam Rhigby white jeans (haha, sue me, they're good looking white denim)

    Evisu #2 Blacks (they're grey nowadays)

    tryna get rid of:

    Gilded Age white destroyed denim

    Uniqlo Overdyed selvedge

    Levis Workwear Slubby Raw Carpentry selvedge

  4. Not really sure that's true. In fact, there is an abundance of options for city dwellers desiring tech clothes, even within traditional mountaineering lines like Patagonia, etc. Not even mentioning Isaora or Outlier at this point.

    I know you're located in Hong Kong but I still have a hard time believing you'll be able to hit a 250USD price point if the quality is any good. And I'm not sure how it works, but don't you have to license any third-party fabric, i.e. goretex, pertex, unless you can get ahold of something in-house that works just as well (not likely).

    That being said, I'm always interested when someone wants to do something on superfuture (unless its slim fit grey v neck tees). It would be cool to see this.

    - hood, high neck closure

    - taped seams

    - not super lightweight

    - pockets for shit

    - not a fishtail, but a longer rear than the front (WM does this)

    well, realistically Goretex is just a plastic compound woven a particular way. That being said, it can be duplicated, and perhaps already exists as a fabric available for wholesale. For that you have to research the chemistry of neo-fabrics and microfibers and insulated/breathable textiles or watever. I'm sure someone on here knows some crazy nylon variation that fits the bill. I think you can probably hit your mark (if not, then arouund it).

    -hood, high neck closure and detachable

    -mid-weight, like boiled wool weight

    -tilted zips (think MMM motos)

    -detachable lining (provides double the insulation)

    -the length shouldn't go past your knees
