THIS OR THAT? (Use me for all your Should I Buy...? questions)

[mellon.collie]

I've been searching for the right kind of Slim fit jeans. NOT SKINNY JEANS, but a little slimmer than regular. The problem is that my thighs are kinda big, so slim jeans fit really strangely.

But the thing is, I'm not overweight or anything. I'm actually really skinny, but for some reason, my legs just don't fit well in slim jeans. Are there any brands that anyone could recommend to me that would fit really well? And I'm definitely not looking to break bank by buying a pair of jeans.

I'm a 30x30 if that helps.

Thanks!

if this is your first pair of 'premium' denim, you might want to try a pair of lvc 1947 501's. They tend to be slim without choking your thighs. They are raw and unsanforized so pick up a pair tagged W 32 L 34/32 .

Cultizm is a great place to purchase them. Dejan is also super quick with his replies, so contact him if you have any other sizing questions.

if the price is a tad excessive, nothing wrong with a pair of regular 501's at your local supermarket. I've also heard great things about uniqlo's selvage line. You will get more help if you post what you expect to pay for these.

Hi everybody ,i have one question ,possible find Lvc Nevada 1880 Limited edition full package in this time ?and this package around how much market price ?

[ViCi0US.]

I'm still debating whether I should pick up PBJ XX-005 or Skull 5010xx. Right now, I'm leaning more towards the one with the slimmer fit which are the Skulls, I think. But I heard about the Skulls' quality so my mind isn't made up yet.

[Tyler Durden]

skull 5010xx from ownmagazine.com/store, "The color and sewing technique are vintage-like".

I am looking to buy a pair of Samurai Jeans and there are two models I am interested in proxying. I am looking at the 0500XX and the 5000VX. I have previously owned a pair of Skull 5010xx , but this time around I am looking for something that is not quite as slim/skinny. I know that both of the Sam models are not as slim as the Skulls. Advice?

5000VX. Will give you a good contrast.

[beatle]

Mhhh..I believe S0500XX will give you a faster , more pronounced fade....

Lee 101J,

Wrangler 11MJ,

Or Levis Type I?

I meant contrast in terms of a different fit from his previous jeans, not contrasty fades. Sorry for using a poor term.

[Guest itzo sherpa]

Thanks mellon.collie. My friend's been talking about Uniqlo jeans. I might get some of those. The Levi's are really nice too.

[Guest noogsahoy]

[Guest noogsahoy]

...pbj's...

[beatle]

Levi's Type I

PBJ xx05

KMW 1980..but PRPS has nicer details...check out Poly's...

005s are way, slimmer through the thighs. Which fit do you like more? IHs are some seriously badass jeans, but given the speed at which they fade, I dunno that you'll ever see anything from them.

[terutt]

First noob selvage for great justice:

APC NS: Already tried on, fits like the awesome.

Acedemi Indigo: Haven't tried it on yet. Like the looks of it, cheaper, quality looks about the same, should I wing it?

Probably ordering either online because CAD is almost par with USD. And Dutil is selling NS for $218. D:

Flathead 3001/310 vs. Samurai xx0500/710

So im finally ready for an upgrade to some high quality denimz. The thing is that I am struggling to decide between those three models. I know that both FH and Sam make an amazing quality product, but which do you guys reccommend? So far, the only higher quality denim I have worn is APC NS, sized down 3 and I love the slim (but not extremely tight) fit. What are the pros and cons of the three models? Any help would be appreciated!

[percy]

i was advised to go for the samurai rather than the flathead when i was looking. i know both samurai models have a higher rise than the flathead, which i prefer.

the 0500 is the version used in the contest they had last year and can provide great fading and has quite a slubby denim. corter has just got a pair (see samurai thread) and they look good. perhaps slightly more relaxed fit than the 710, which also has heavier denim.

hopefully an expert can help you.

[corbu]

I've decided to buy a pair of 5ep LDB in rigid, but i'm reading conflicting sizing information.

I've read that they are sized much larger than tagged. Has anyone had experience with theml and if so, please chime in

[KicksNotBombs]

LVC (Not sure which model yet) or Eternal 811?

[beatle]

Eternal 811

[spacemanvt]

im lookin for a even steven sorta fit (regular fit , straight leg, 7.5 - 8" hem) in higher quality denimz.

any ideas?

[Brockg777]

I'm looking for something in up to 200-250 range with a fit similar to my 21cms. I know that new standards would be an obvious possibility but I'm thinking the rise is too high(probably can't do a 10inch rise or higher). How about skull 5010 6x6s? And is it better to get them in a one wash or raw and can you get rid of the bullshit ed hardy looking patch? Any other suggestions?

You just described 5000 different pairs of jeans. I'm not sure I understand what you mean by 7.5" hem?? The hem on a pair of jeans is at the bottom leg opening. And you surely don't mean inseam, unless you are looking for some denim hot pants. Maybe you meant rise.

Eternal 811. Straight leg but really high rise. Beautiful denim

Somet 003 Straight leg, medium~low rise. I would recommend this one. Size down, cause they are sanforized. Meant to sag a bit.

45rpm Sorahikos: STF Straight leg, medium rise.

Evisu 2000 No.1 Specials. STF straight leg. Check out DD+1 thread.

1947 Levis will NOT be a slim cut. There are tons of slim cuts available, but the APC is the choice for the one you posted. No idea of sizing for you though.

[jk17]

wearing some apc rescues right now. size 29 but it's 1 size too big in the waist.

trying to look for a slimmer pair. not really sure which brand. i'm like 6'2 and somewhat skinny. any suggestions?

thanks =]
