Can someone tell me about these jeans that are made in Morocco? I thought the dior raws were either MII or MIJ. These cost more than the MII.

Pantalon Jeans Bas 19

(Bleu Marine)

I think they are the red selvedge jean but they're not as nice as the silver selvedge ones which are made in japan.

[erbs]

I'm looking for something a tiny bit slimmer than my S5000BKS. I love the fit but I want something without the bulge under the knees. Maybe something with a very slight taper.

Why don't you just get the s710bk? They seem perfect for what you are looking for.

[KicksNotBombs]

Yeah, I was thinking about getting the 710s but I'm worried they'll be too slim? Do you guys think it'll be alright?

[law4u]

I want to ask, which of the sammies have the back pocket arc on the inside so the back pocket has a arc fade? I thought the new S710BK had it but I've seen some with it on the out side.

also I want a pair of black relaxed fit, sanforized demin for work and clubbing, what do u guys think?? I want something heavy, so VX5000? is there anything else?

thanks everyone

Which jeans look the best with a little sag? Which models specifically. I am looking for a nice jean that I can wear with a sag but that isn't huge.

EDIT: I am thinking of getting the 5507xx's by Skull. Any insight on how they would look sagged?

[oeija]

if a person usually fits a 29 in say a nudie thin finn or slim jim, what would that translate into for dior homme? would it be possible to fit a 27inch 19cm mij?

[CrashTestBrummie]

Could anyone share their knowledge and tell me what's been used to dye these Fullcount jeans:

Are they coloured that way simply for fashion, and can anyone point me in the direction of finding out more about the fading properties of jeans like this?

Thanks in advance!

julian reds look good with a reg fit or anti fit.

if you have slmmer legs you prolly could sag skulls also

Diors are basically made to be sagged. Check em out.

They should be good. If you don't want them to be super slim, size up one.

I'm not sure about these jeans in particular, but they look very similar to the mud-dyed SC Okinawas. I would guess that they are also mud-dyed. Since they have a white weft they should fade like regular indigo jeans (or sulfur-dyed black jeans with a white weft such as the s5000bk) but I have no idea how stubborn they would be.

[apocalypse later]

I'm new to Japanese denim (only wore Nudies and APCs before this), specifically Samurai denim. I guess I don't really remember well enough, but it seems like in the upper thigh near the crotch, there's a big "bulge" where there should be whiskers developing. I don't know if this is just stiffness or a sign that the jeans are a little slimmer than they should be, but I looked at pics of others with 0500XX jeans and they look as slim or slimmer than mine.

So will it go away with wear?

[nolanmjj]

is it worth getting a pair of nudie average joes? i just want to step up from the $30 levi stfs i had.

also in the case i do buy them, should i buy size 29 or 30 or 31? a size 32 x 33 STF fit me well.

[cq45]

whats the difference between the new 501's at local retailers with the new tag?

is it just the tag or did they change something to the jean as well.

[anhtice]

i just bought samurai s5000bk 's. what should i do with them (i am a total denim noob..).

im not sure if i should soak them first and wear them in to set in creases or just.. wear them.

[HeatBeast23]

Hi. does anyone know of any jeans that have a similar fit to Diors?.

if not...are there any jeans that fit like new standards with a more slightly tapered leg and are selvage?

[kiya]

Turn them inside out, soak in warm water for 30 minutes, let them air dry, wear them.

Wait many months till they start to fade and lighten in color...

[lamb.]

A.P.C New Cure is similar to Dior and/or NS but there is no selvage.

[HeatBeast23]

yes i know of the NC's. but there has to be something out there with a similar fit and still selvage. i mean wat jeans do u guys get who want that dior fit but dont want to pay 300+?

anyone?

[kino]

new cure is a selvage jeans...

[HeatBeast23]

^^actually..it isn't.

[grouse_allergy]

Why wouldn't it be selvage? Because you can't see it on the outseam?

[lamb.]

It really isn't selvage...

Anyone know of a Left Hand Twill slim jean? I searched, couldn't find anything.

[epitaph220]

these (if they are slim enough for you)

Studio D'Artisan 003

[midnight]

Are those the same fit as the 103's??? I want.

[erbs]

Yeah, they're the same fit.

In SDA's numbering system, the first number is the denim and the third number is the fit. Hence the 003's have the same fit as the 103's, and the 101's have the same denim as the 103's.

With this being said, SDA's 0XX denim does not shrink as much as the 1XX denim, so you would have to size down one: postwash, a 29 in the 003 would fit similar to a 30 in the 103.

Hope that helps.

[Guest No Handclaps Please]

RRDS is long and i dont know how to wear them around the house with no shoes

should i let the jean come under my heel or should i try to avoid that? to be on the safe side ive been pulling them out from under me whenever i sit

[aF 1]

Hi

APC NS

Ive seen alot of other APCs with very sharp contrast - dark hues/bright white fading

I just bought a new pair of skulls

so i dont want to screw them up

can anyone tell me why my jeans look like crap?

thanks
