RRL Stores, ebay, a few select stores, nothing on the net. I'm in NY so there's 2 stores here. One on Mott St. and another on Prince Street near Charles St. Try to catch a pair the next time you're in NYC. Size 40 fits like a 44.

Pics would be fine, but why the salt water soak?

To be honest, it wasn't planned. I was walking down the beach and water got all over my jeans. I said to myself, "Fuck it, might as well do it all the way." So, I ran into the ocean with my jeans on, ran back out, rolled around in the sand, and sat there till they dried. Everyone I was with was like "What the fuck is this guy doing?"

was wondering, can any one ID these as real and if they're the japanese line? and if anyone has a pair, how do they compare with apc ns?

thanks

[jimmyc]

If they are your size, Buy them,

RRL are awesome. I own 3 pairs and I love themm!!!

[jubei]

they look authentic (I don't knowanyone who would go to the trouble of counterfeiting RRLs...)

and I wouldn't know if they're from the "japanese line"... are you talking about whther they're made from Japanese Denim? If so, I would say probably yes, as most of their jeans are. Where it's constructed varies on the generation.

So in sum, if you can get these for a good price they're worth a buy. Also, be aware that these are washed, not raw (though they are quite dark)

[arrpirate]

alright sweet. thanks!

is it me or is everybody riding RL's jock this year??? I've read like two or three bios of him in the past month...

not to knock him, because I'm currently really loving his stuff from almost all of his lines.

Ralph is a legend (see, now I'm doing it!)

[ang_kangkong]

Well, it's Fashion Week around here, and they're celebrating Ralph Lipschitz's 40 years in the fashion industry. Could that be why?

[jubei]

that'd make sense.

seriously though, I really like RRL stuff (way too expensive outside of the 'bay though), Rugby stuff can be good as well (esp on sale! great pieces there from time to time), nad of course the main Polo line is always a standard...

I've also enjoyed looking at his stuff for Black Label (esp ladies... very sharp)

[parachutes]

I bought this the day it came out. Tons of good info and pictures there. I have been putting together pieces that I want off there for some NY pick ups for the last few days.

i have some shirts i despised as a youth, but have grown to love

black pinstripe military shirt ftw!

Here's an interesting read on RL's attempt to do exactly that (aka' date=' take over the world).

from the look of the picture it looks like the made in Japan line, all the new washes have 3d whiskers.

currentlyi believe 95 to 100% of the jeans are made in the US. if you have a chance pick up the newer versions as the sizing and fits are much better. love RRL jeans own like 20 pairs.

[overdog]

I apologize if this is the wrong place to ask about fit, but I'm new here, so please forgive me.

I recently bought a pair of RRL slim fits that are sized 32x32 but are actually more like 32x34. These are either dry or one wash, made in USA, and have no back pocket stitching. Anyways, I've never owned jeans this slim before, so I want to make sure they will fit properly before I cut off the tag.

I've tried them on about 4 times so far, each time for a few minutes. The first time I tried them on, they were so tight that I had a good amount of difficulty buttoning the fly. It's gotten progressively easier each time though. The waist is actually okay, but it still feels very tight around the hips. I'm a pretty skinny guy, but it feels somewhat uncomfortable to sit down in them. I feel like the tightness around my hips and front pelvic region prevents me from sitting down and leaning forward.

Is this a sign that the jeans are too tight? Or is it more due to the jeans being stiff? Will the problem will go away as the jeans soften out and stretch a little?

Thanks in advance.

[M.O.A]

i think this is the wrong RRL thread....this place can be confusing like that.....

you should be fine...just wear them around a lot and they will stretch...slim jeans are supposed to be slim...and those bad boys are slim indeed

[cheep]

so i was at the outlet mall just south of ft meyers with my mom and son... and she hooked up some rrl slim fits. god damn these are tight. they are washed... decent wash except for the shin fade(?) but the fit is great... for a skinny low rise. (mom likes em)

denim is top notch. these were made in the usa. um.... what else.... except for the afde on the shin, all the fading looks pretty natural. i got a 28, and i can button them all the way up with no problem, but they sit below my hip bones, and are tight all they way to my ankles.

id reccomend these to anyone who wants a high quality skinny jean... try to find them raw tho.(i dont give a fuck because i have more raw denim than i need, and none that is washed.)

they also had the slim boots, but only in size 25. the waist looked like it might have been doable but i couldnt pull them up past my calf. they couldnt have been more than 5" at the knee. denim was outstanding tho.

[coleslawyum]

^^I remember trying those on a year ago and it mde me look like an ice cream cone.

Those are awesome though. I have a couple of RRL's and they all don't fit anymore… but I take 'em out once in awhile to look at them. Top notch denim and construction.

[cheep]

yeah... i still think skinny jeans are on the way out, but my mom liked the fit so she got em for me... not something i would have spent my money on, but very nice jeans.

damn things fit like... i dunno... some julian red hobokens.

[cheep]

heres a pic of the fit... shows the green/grey color too... very unique color i think.

Just picked up these at the RL outlet for $130ish. Waist size 34, and they fit like any other size 34 jeans (such as Levi's 501 STF). It doesn't say sanforized, so I'm not sure whether I should hot soak them before wearing them. Any suggestion?

RRL Straight legs, made in USA.

Excuse the crappy photo skills. Nothing wrong with digital camera, it's just me.

[cheep]

all rrl is sanforized, so start wearing them or soak if youd like them a bit softer.

[eightysix]

Thanks cheep. Much appreciated. I'll work on RRL's after about 6 months since i'm planning to work on USA sammies first when i get them in about 2 weeks.

[fornicatard]

bump, got a few questions:

Are the slim fits still being sold (somewhere) in raw/one wash, and are they in the current season of RRL?

I've got a 30" true waist, so if i'd ever come across one, should I get a 27?

I've tried googling them but did I perhaps miss out on some obscure e-shop? Oh, and anybody who has one and wants to sell, let me know.

[Brienneoftarth]

I just won this on ebay. Jacket looks beautiful and I dont think there is enough of a market for RRL fakes. But the seller was vague about where he got it and his location is iffy as well soo....... Anybody know if this is fake?

[40ozprophet]

you bought a 300 dollar jacket just sort of hoping it wasnt fake?
