Dior Homme Denim (FAQ ON FIRST PAGE - read me)

I agree about the clasp. It's a very nice detail but not very practical.

[sidneylo]

Exactly! I thought it was cool at first because it was something a little different from the norm but after some wear and stretching it is absolutely worthless.

I'm always rebending the clasp since it gives so easily when stretched.

i've had to do that the one pair of DH jeans that fit me in the waist...all the rest are baggy and need to be worn with a belt anyway so haven't had that with the others yet.

my black painted blue jeans bout to burst in the crotch...at this point i only wear them once a month. Maybe ill wear em more so i can get them repaired at Denim Doctors when i hit up LA in May haha

[percy]

whats the best place to buy dh in europe? preferably online.

thx

[fade to black2]

the Dior Hommes at avenue montaigne/rue royale probably your best bet....

how long does shipping take from luisaviaroma.com?

[iequalratings]

wow, that seems quick. maybe i should just clarify but

how long does it take to be shipped to the United States.

[defiance]

Should take 3 days from time of order; well assuming that its not a preorder and that it doesn't get hung up in customs. Shipping from LVR is 50 euros or about 65 dollars; they use FedEx international priority which is why it’s so expensive but fast.

are the raws on louisaviaroma japanese/italian??

They have both.

Japanese = "BRUT"

Italian = "NOSTALGY"

i'm in love wit those mirror finish DHs

[bearbrick-]

made an order from lvr recently, was their first time customer, they strongly emphasized that first time customers would take longer as they need the credit card company to do the clearance before they can ship, so basically it took around a week to 9days for it to reach me

I bought a pair of size 27 18cm Dior Homme tight fit jeans...if anyone bought a 26 and found them to be unfitting, would you be interested in a trade? Mine are brand new. Tags and all, i am wanting to trade these for a smaller size due to my ridiculous skinnyness. I am keeping them safe in the lvr box.

Any questions, please e-mail me at [email protected]

I just bought a pair of Dior 19cm's off a user here. I love the fit, except he had them hemmed, and the inseam seems a bit shorter than the legnth quoted. How much stretch could I get out of these? What method could I use to get an extra inch out of the inseam? They fit ok, but I'd like a little more stacking.

My fav diors. Don't wear them too often though.

When I was at the DH store in Paris one of the salesmen was wearing a pair of these. They worked for him because of the environment but I honestly couldn't picture him wearing them outside of the boutique. I can't envision an occasion where I'd go 'Yes, this situation calls for my mirror pants.'

[b3team]

i agree, those mirror jeans will make you stand out a little too much.

HAHA, reminds me of superman.

I want to get some 21cm Diors. I wear a 28 in Nudie SS and my true waist is about a 30. I want them to fit on the looser side, so what size should I get?

[irishlad]

I picked up some Dior's while I was in Paris about 10 days ago. I normally wear a size 32 and I picked up the Japanese 21cm in a 31 (while the 30's fit fine in the waist but were far too tight for my larger calves). They've stretched a bunch in the waist but I haven't measured so I can't say exactly how much.

I am Diored the same as above (new to DH) but I totally agree with the comments about the clasp. totally unnecessary. I expect it to break anytime as i try to close it. I actually have a pair of pradas and they have a not totally different contraption and it is now broken.

great forum. thanks

I just received a pair of dior italian 21cms from eluxury in a size 31 which was loose in the waist (and everywhere else) upon arrival, so I need to get something 2 sizes smaller. I decided that Ill return these and get the 19cm japan from luisaviaroma, but Ive also heard that those fit smaller originally and stretch less so should I get a 29 or a 30? By the way the 21cm fit was MUCH baggier than expected

[Originatek]

im going to La in the middle of next month and plan on picking up a pair.anyone know if they usually have a size run in stock?and im confused,is there selvedge and non selvedge 19+21 cm?...

[edmond]

i think all are not selvedge..

[fade to black2]

there's a selvedge model but it's not worth the $400 price tag. Just get a pair of the new washed and call it a day.

[edmond]

i agree with metallica guy here..

[ericdw]

quick question - what's the weight of the denim used for the blue brut 21 and 19

[fade to black2]

.....does it matter?

not tryin to be a dick, i dont think people go into a pair of diors with that kind of consideration in mind...nor did the producers most likely make them thinkin that kinda shit either.

[edmond]

again metallica guy here is right..

just wanted to know b/c i want to know if they're stiff or not. doesn't the weight have to do with how stiff they are?

anyway, are dior homme raw stiff when you first get them?

[herpsky]

woah

this thread is like a super n00bfest

It's a bit hard to help when we don't know your usual waist size.

[BoardC3]

That was dumb of me not to include it, but I actually just bought a pair of jap 19s off someone and he gave me the waist measurement so Im alright
