Prps new fit VS eternal 811 VS any other pair for my first real fading pair?

samurai period

[Opie]

And chaos ensued.. Which lead to me ordering the eternals!

Thanks!

[zehero]

definitely a good choice. eternals are definitely on par with samurai, pbj, or oni in terms of construction and seem to fade well consistantly. Prps don't get the same 3dness in fading IMO.

eternals do have some of the most unique and deep fading properties out there, but some of the Prps I've seen look really good as well. what is the general opinion of these jeans?

For example: Prps New Fit vs. Imperial Duke

skull 5010xx 6x6 or SExI04?

[brungus]

approaching the 8 month mark on my KMW1980's. whats a similar fit pair i can get?

[KicksNotBombs]

I got my eyes set on a pair of Samurais. Right now my current choices, in no particular order, are:

1. 0510XX-SP

2. 710XX/BK

3. S5000VX (21oz)

What do you guys think? I'm looking for a pair that fits similar to my S5000BKs. Feel free to throw out some other options.

Thanks

If you like the fit of the 5000s, get another pair of 5000s. It's not like 21 oz and 17 oz denim are the same thing, and black and blue jeans in the same cut will be mistaken for the same jeans. If you decide you're gonna wear these a bit more relaxed, the 510 cut is nice, but 21 oz sam denim is HOT!

Skip the 710s, you've already got black Sams.

[KicksNotBombs]

Ok I think I have my eyes set on the 510s. What size should I get if I wear a 28 in the 5000s? 28 too right?

Given the way they seem to be running with lot x versus lot y and so on, I would either:

1) Stick your hand in a blender, consult bloodbolt to determine sizing, or

2) Call Gordon.

[KicksNotBombs]

Ahhh screw, I'm ordering from 2nd since I live in Taiwan. I guess I'm just gonna have to hope I'm lucky since 28 is the smallest they make anyways . Thanks for the help man.

[sunman42000]

I'm looking at the common projects court shoes as a shoe to wear with my raws. Which do you guys like better - black or white?

[halberdklown]

apc nc

apc ns

ande whall grifter

i need something that will fade awesome and fit awesome. ande's shit is way cooler-- hand made and cooler details, but i haven't seen any good fading pics. also i can try on apc's downtown but can't try on ande's. i'm 5'11" 165lbs and i need these jeans to fit pretty much like this:

thanks

[HBlack]

Just go try on the APCs. You'll be able to find a fit you like in NC or NS.

pbj xx05

v. fh f310

v. skull 5010xx

Depends what you're looking for. I love the slubbiness of the pbj's. They look pretty cool as they fade with all of the little bumps and such. I love flat heads too, but i might personally like pbj more. They seem just a little bit different from everything else thats on the market (even if they aren't). No matter which you purchase, both are great jeans.

[Dboon]

Alright so i want a pair of jeans thats going to be a slim straight leg, but not too slim. I am fairly thin, so i wouldnt want something that would simply look like a joke on me. I like the look of dior 21cm's, and also pbj 005 fit, so I was thinking maybe i should try the samurai 710's again. The SEXSC sounded like a good slim jean, and i thought if i just did a lukewarm soak on a pair of SEXFH's they would stay a simple slim. I prefer the japanese denim brands, but open to anything. Thanks

Eternal 811s are a slim straight jean, with great denim. Some complain that the rise is too high, and some skinny guys complain that the cut creates hip flair, and thus a "baggy diaper ass" effect. However, I do not have this (since I am an athletic build as opposed to thin); I love my 811s and would reccommend them 100%. I've also heard that sizing down appropriately will prevent this diaper effect.

You should also consider Iron Heart 634s.

Second for going for Ande Whalls, he's got afew options available now I believe. You won't be dissapointed

[dkatz]

^ I concur on the Ande Whall's - support the little guy and have something more interesting and different.

I actually have a sneaker this-or-that:

I want a pair of plain black sneakers to wear with the likes of Nudie Thin Finns, SExI's and Cassette's (slim straight leg, 7.5ish hem). White converse chuck taylors are my default sneakers, so I was going to nab a pair of black hitop black monochrome leather chucks

but then I tried on a pair of nike blazer mid's in all black that I actually liked and would be the same price.

My issue is that I'm really not a nike-type person, so I can't decide if I should stick to my tried-and-true chucks or go with something a bit more substantial and different for me. So:

[beatle]

I think the Chucks look more rugged.....

[machinist]

Didn't you say you have wide feet. I have a pair of blazers and they are narrow.....I'd go with the chucks anyway.

[dkatz]

^^ Yeah, I do, but they didn't feel too narrow to me.

Ok, I'll probably go with the chucks

[halberdklown]

does anyone have any opinion on whether to get a pair of skull 5010xx 6x6, Imperial Duke, or SExI04BK?

[beatle]

Always hard when your indecicive about indigo or black....

I'm would go for Skulls

[halberdklown]

its just that the black of the SExI04BK for some reason appears greyish, thats what really got my attention. and why the skulls, any particular reason?

[beatle]

Great cut - nice heavy denim - great fade ...check the skulls thread....

[halberdklown]

never seems to be any love for the SExI04...the black looks great i think

what do you all think about those two and the S710xx?
