Question on jeans, pls help out

[apu]

just wondering if anyone owns a pair of Julian reds (california no wash)?

how do they fit? (or compared to say Nudie Straight Sven?)

also, i can only find waist 29 (i am probably a 28 in nudies SSDS) so i am wondering if it fits smaller?

would u recommend these jeans

please share ur exp/opinion

thanks heaps

california is tapered cut,lot more tapered than apc new standard/, straight seven is just straight cut. 29 is smallest they go on ssds i think. might be able to find smaller size on non ds ss.

More tapered then a SS, I can squeeze into a 31 SS and I got a 32 in the Cali but then again neither are very slim in the thigh. I really like my Calis but I probably coulda gone one more size down. I guess it depends on how slim you want them.

I also got my Calis for like $100 or so, so it was a great deal for the quality of the denim.

29 should be perfect for you.

I have a 30 in SSDS and in the california no wash. I wish I would have went 28 with the SSDS and 29 with the california. So if the 28 SSDS is good for you I would assume you're about the same size as me and 29 is the way to go.

I would absolutely reccomend the california no wash. The denim is really nice and the fit is amazing. The rear isn't so "fitted." Easily my favorite jeans I own and I have some 501s, SSDS, and new standards.

another question

is the Julian red cali no wash much tighter on the thigh than the straight sven (say waist size 28)

and will they get the 'perosnalized' look if worn for few months before wash?

[tweeds]

that "personalised" look is merely contrasting fading you will get with sufficient and frequent wear. for a good comparison between nudie SSDS and the JR cali, look at http://www.superfuture.com/city/supertalk/showthread.php?t=7091

cool, thx for that

now i am wondering what whether 29' is the smallest they produce and from what i've read, they dont seem to be as tight a fit as they seem, correct me if i'm wrong

anyway, neone know where to get them online for a gd price? or how much they are normally sold for?

cheers

the superdenim encyclopaedia sticky thread at the top of the forum has some places to buy julian red. also, i'll ask you to do a bit of a search next time, before anyone flames you the julian red issues have been discussed in depth several times.

^ pardon me

i am new to this so can u explain wat u meant just then?

[moykky]

And keep in mind that like most nudies, calis stretch like hell (more than any other jeans I 've had). If you want them nice and tight take as small you can fit in (wear them high when you try them on, even if you want to wear them on your hips).
