denim rubberneckers...

[snugglepony]

yesterday afternoon i was walking back to the office with a friend of mine after lunch. we passed a restaurant with outdoor seating, and there's a dude sitting down with his girlfriend. i noticed he was wearing a pair of nudies (still very rare in portland; only the second pair i've seen) and as i walked past him, dude fully rubbernecks to check out my APCs. not checking out my ass, mind you, but checking out my jeans. the thing is, i'm totally guilty of doing the same thing, and i imagine i must look like a desperately oversexed gay man to anyone who happens to notice me doing it -- not exactly the look i'm going for, knowhati'msayin'?

anyone else notice this phenomenon?

[cheapmuthafukr]

i do it. dont know why since no one in jax has nice denim but me, but i still do it. especially with girls. +2 with girls that have big round asses and skinny waistlines.

[greentea]

he might be a sf'er also.

[denimdestroyedmylife]

i'm a big rubbernecker, but keep finding myself disappointed----------except when i saw a double RL cinch-back 1901 looking pair of jeans on this 50-year-old dude; had to rush to a computer to verify that such a thing even exists; and it does.

[cheapmuthafukr]

damn... those sound cool.

[denimdestroyedmylife]

the fading was sick!

was gonna take a picture, but thought that would be pushing it too far.

[minya]

I totally do it all the time, but I don't think I've had it happen to me yet. Or at least I haven't noticed. Nobody recognizes the D'artisan arcuate

[tweeds]

only thing i see are evisus. i've been reduced to rubbernecking selvedge. sad isn't it

[batorizer]

yeah, i feel kinda gay when i'm all trying to get a look at some back pockets or the cuffs. it's okay though, my girlfriend knows i do it, so it's a really good excuse if she catches me looking at chicks asses.... yayer

[will_i_am]

hahaha i thought i was the only one.

i look at my residents ( i'm a waiter at a retirement home ) jeans. some of them got some nice highwater levis haha.

hahaha i even was caught staring at my friends dickies asking how much he washes them and blah blah. he just responded fag.

they're pretty sick tho. lots of fading. i might ask him to take pics haha.

he might be a sf'er also.

yeah, whenever i see someone wearing certain brand or style of jeans, i couldn't help to think perhaps he/she belong to SF and i have previously talk shit to him.her before.

probably have. lol, but its all in good fun

[cheapmuthafukr]

yeah... thats what its all about here. talking shit and checking out eachothers asses.

[crisis]

Haha, always doing that. Saw some half selvage Lee's on some lesbian in a pickup the other day at the gas station. My girlfriend spotted an older guy 60+ wearing some raw canes at costco gas a few days back.

i see a pair of nudies probably 1/3 times i go into the city (san fran) so for me its pretty common place. the only real time you can see me clearly rubbernecking is when i see one of those hot ass girls with long legs with cuffed jeans and here is the kicker : SELVEDGE EDGE. now that is hot. a hot girl with a good sense of denim. now that is a keeper. and they usually have a cute ass. always a plus.

[horriblyjollyjinx]

I do it all the time. I've been seeing so many vintage Levi's denim jackets lately, of course they're all very ugly, but it's still cool!

Have also seen a couple of girls with selvedge jeans, but they're rare.

[philscie]

I saw the oldest dude wearing a pair of brand new raw slim jims, in a discount clothing store here. Looked pretty good.

[philscie]

But yea, I totally scope out nice jeans when I see them. But out here in Buttfuck Alberta, it's mostly g-star and diesel, with a few of the fashionxcore kids wearing nudie or, very seldomly, acne.

[6MT]

yeah... thats what its all about here. talking shit and checking out eachothers asses.

i just wish the norms would understand why i check out other dudes' ass, "ITS ALL ABOUT JEANS"

[6MT]

there should some sort official Merriam-Webster term for ppl like us, so we dont fall for the typical term-"closet gay"

[keri]

I stare at asses all day long, the jeans are just an excuse.

But seriously, if I see some bad ass jeans, I first rubberneck, then run up tot the person and ask what they are..... I think I might scare them.

[horriblyjollyjinx]

anyone ever start talking to strangers about their jeans?

[6MT]

yesir, i sure do, and that scare the shit out of them when i tell them "i saw the pocket on you jeans, i could tell those are some nice canes"

dude, i was walking in the 30's the other night and i saw one of those ridicilously "im so hot u cant even talk to me girls" with the sickest ass, so i look at her cuff and shes rockin selvage...i almost asked her to marry me.

[Whodinihimself]

The most embarrassing form of rubbernecking is when you try to check for a Big E on someone with vintage Levis...cos you have to get in pretty damn close to know for sure

[Seething Tortoise]

Nope, but places like this and mynudies became a subject of talk for this one guy who works at a local clothes store at which I would like a job at.

Anyway, after visiting this place. I have to admit that I do rubberneck to see if people have selvage turn-ups and to see what they've got on their backpockets. Most people end up with either something that could be described as felvage and back pocket stitching from high street stores.

[damnIam]

Guilty as sin!!! Agreed, nothing hotter than a sveldt chicky with selvage turnups.

[hawkeye]

I'm guilty, but yesterday I didn't need to turn my head, I was eating lunch and this guy sits down right in front of me in Japanese repos, I thought possibly Denime, there was no stitching on the back pockets. So this guy is torturing me with amazingly dark jeans, and I don't know what they are, I run back to the office to look around Rakuten to try to figure out what they were only to find out that my work has "deemed this site to be inappropriate or unauthorized due to company policy." Damn it.

Girls in selvage has got to be the hottest thing ever. The closest thing I've seen is Evisu selvage, but it was good enough. If i saw a girl in apc's i would definitely say something, because I don't picture a girl wearing apc's to be some high-maintenance stuck up bitch.

I've rubbernecked many people's jeans and been caught many times. But if it's ok for passing bikers to nod to eachother, than this is no different. I walked into a local store and two employees were discussing my RRDS for about 5 minutes before approaching me to ask how long i've had them. It was a shamefully proud moment for me.
