[bboysdontcryy]

hey guys have u seen the 06 black washed jeans?

http://www.rakuten.co.jp/toledo/811287/999948/

any idea if it looks as nice as the pics shown?

[ETY]

Oh Wow that Dior are crazy nice just wondering how they fit ? Is it close to a Nudie or Pure Blue ?

[bboysdontcryy]

yeah in the pic it looks nice, but then agn it maybe the lighting effect.have to see it in real life to be sure.i wld say a 28 fits like a 27 apc cure (unwashed and brand new)

[sXXXe]

really nice wash!!!

[insidertrading]

the jeans look more akin to the black whiskered jean model 'released' during the 'follow me' collection. the look is quite different between the two ('follow me' vs. 'f/w 06')... i own both and i'd say the earlier collections carry a much more distinct wash than those released during the current collection.

though rakuten states that the picture is an accurate representation of the actual jean, i wouldn't be suprised if they turn out a lil' darker when seen in person.

is there any fake dior homme floating around?

fake dor homme stuff is basically worthless, if you are buying shit to look like you can afford them, get a brand that plasters their logo everywhere. dior homme's clothing is very understated in their branding (the reason they are so great).

i've ordered several times from them and received no fees. (due to reading the above post: I am in the US)

Huh, weird... when I ordered from Browns I had my jeans shipped to my US address and DHL *still* charged me $45.

[typicalfashion]

i have both the black and blue 19cms... the denim is pretty good in both..

i have both as well and agree

[dnarnya]

Did you receive a bill in the mail later? How did they charge you?

Okay, just got my size 30 made in Japans. Talk about quick shipping, ordered from Brown's on Friday and they got here Monday morning! Let's hope I don't get a bill like minya did. Anyway, here's the comparo:

Japan 21cm in 30 on the top, Italian 21cm in 31 on the bottom.

And here are the measurements:

Japan:

waist - 15 7/8 (40.5cm)

knee - 8 1/4 (21)

hem - 7 3/4 (20)

Italian:

waist - 16 1/4 (41)

knee 8 5/8 (22)

hem - 8.5 (21.5)

Denim feels about the same on both, but the Japanese are noticeably lighter.

Dphi - Are you in the states? I ordered another pair of 19's from Browns yesterday and was wondering how long mine would take.

Edit - Nevermind, noticed your from Portland.

I've got 21cm italian raw diors in size 30 -- I wear 29 in APC rescues, 32 in helmut lang

i'm a 31-32 true

[dry the rain]

HELP! ok, just got my pair from a fellow sf'er, and i really want to wear them buy they're so damn tight it restricts my movement. I've got size 28 apc NS, and those stretched to fit fine (still snug). These are 29 italian 19cm's. so the question here is:

Are they going to stretch out pretty significantly? and how fast? please give me a hand here.

edit: i've read back over the thread a good bit. mikelowrey said earlier that his stretched a good bit. about 3-4 cm when laid flat. is this common? if that'll happen, then these are perfect.

[ayn]

I wear 28 APC NS and 28 DH jap 19cm, the 29 should be just fine unless the Italian are smaller than the Jap, which I dont think is the case... they should stretch out in a matter of hours... It was painful to skate in them the first couple of days but they were fine after the 1st week...

[dry the rain]

right on...yeah, i can feel 'em stretching already (i was too excited about 'em, couldn't even wait for replies). the real issue is the thighs. i bike a LOT so i've got pretty muscular thighs. the waist will stretch fine, i'm sure.

so anyone know how much the legs stretch out by comparison?

[ayn]

mine have stretched out quite a bit, the more you do stuff like biking or skating with them the more they will stretch out...

[M.O.A]

they def stretch a lot. Kinda sucks. My sz 32's arent tight in the thighs anymore. Oh well
