H&M Raw denim

[stevoe88]

Just got into raw denim, so bare with me if it looks bad. My first pair were a pair of STF 501's from levis. Didn't like anything about it ... hard to fade and the rise was too high. After that I bought a pair of RRL premium selvedged. I like it, but I wanted somthing more slim fit, opposed to straight leg/boot leg.

When I was in San Francisco, I went into H&M and bought these ... Raw Denim SLIQ's. They're basically slim fit raw denim. I had them for about a day now, i'm getting some sharp honeycombs, overall I'm liking them tell me what you guys think.

Just starched to speed up the honeycombing process. I brushed off the excess starch so it doesn't look all powdery anymore.

Fit looks good. Heard those are pretty tough to break in as well.

wow these would be really nice if you had them tapered a bit at the bottom. wish i could get a pair, how much are they? h+m so i assume not much? if anybody would be able to get me a pair to ship to australia, i'd pay you!

I don't understsand why mine look completely black. They've never looked blue under any light and I know I got the raws because a ton of indigo came out when I soaked them and they have the sticker that warns of 2-5% shrinkage or whatever. I see them in SF all the time and they all look black too. For those that care, they also have one or two new fits in raw. They have a denim jacket that warns of indigo loss and talks a little bit about fading but I noticed they all have tiny wear marks around edges like a one wash.

And to Flock, they're all about $40.

I got a pair of the Classic Cut ones... They are nice for what they are, but nothing to be excited about, I'd say.

[ninjapie]

Black? Mine look quite blue:

By the way, there are kinds of Sliqs:

Dark Blue, with the retarded H&M stitching.

Grey/Blue-ish, with normal stitching.

Black, with normal stitching.

I live in H&M stuff and if I could live in the store I would, its like heaven too me!

liking the colour of those ninjapie, what are they? the girls denim although fits ok is never in any decent colours I find but they are so cheap, who can complain!

[ninjapie]

Sliqs, also.

I like how the tight jeans look on girls. Sometimes they've got decent colours, over here.

You could try on one of the Sliq models, a 28 should pretty much like a 27. After a hot was even smaller, perhaps.

[kapay]

Yeah, I don't know. Mine look black. I suppose I'll try to take a picture sometime. I got size 28 but the H&M in SF doesn't carry 28 anymore... at least for the moment. 29 is the smallest in any of the raw fits. Maybe the ones I got are odd ones. And you all got them in SF? Because to me they all look black and the size 28's measured to about a 30.5 before soaking.

[stevoe88]

Yeah, I'll take some pictures after a couple weeks of more wear. These are great for the money you pay which is 39.99. even cheaper than the slim fit raw denim at Gap. I'll keep you guys posted every other week with pictures.

[kapay]

In case anyone cares.. H&M in SF does have 3 pairs of raw denim "Sliq" which are straight leg and skinny, "Original" which are straight leg and regular, and "&Now" which are skinny and tapered. All $39.99.

[entrust]

i picked a pair up last night at H&M here in LA, for $40 i can't complain at all, they fit great!

[beefyk]

Does anyone know if the inseam on the sliq raw will shrink after a wash? Like 2 inches? I'm 5'10.5" and mines is a bit too long. I bought size 31, btw.

Also, how much has your jeans stretched in the waist?

[stevoe88]

I haven't washed them yet, but they're a bit on the long side in terms of breaking in. The waist only stretched about 1-2cm after wearing them for a month or so. When I got my Nudie Slim Jim Drys they broke in much faster. (Just a bit longer to fade than the dry japans, but I'm loving the color contrast) H&M denim from what i've heard has a long break-in/fading period. Probably going to take an extra month or two to get a cool fade as my nudies.

[beefcake]

they break in like a stick of shit. burn them and get something else (scout the forum) if you're after hella mint fadez. they're fine if you're after the fit and sleeping with females and whatnot. congrats on a bargain if that's what you want. but you need to realise:

fades > females.

I am lookin to pick up a pair due to the really low price. Does anyone know the model name or where I can take a look at them online. Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks SUFU.

I'm not sure what model you want but their straight leg slim fit is called H&M "Sliq" Denim I believe. It's a pretty cool fit for the price.

[keendream]

yea the fit of the sliq is pretty good but the denim is terriable. Dont expecta amzing fades but they are decent jeans if you are looking for a decent cut.

[MirrorLockUp]

My H&M Sliqs fell apart in less than 6 months. Towards the end of those 6 months, they felt so so comfortable, but in hindsight, I'd avoid them.

[lamb.]

They're the Sliq's, use the small questions thread though : P

[ggatsby]

i picked up a pair of sliqs for $40 a while ago as my first pair of raw denim.

they're cut fantastically and actually fade quite well.

but: mine stretched like a motherfucker and turned supersoft after running through a fountain. needless to say, they're not retired.

so, i think it's safe to say they were good for the first month or two

[n0cturnal]

they were.....ok for the price. def size down.

[DEPHT]

I got a pair, lightly worn size 34 if you want em cheap. 20 bucks shipped?

[demarco]

I have a pair of original selvage denim size 36 I never wore. They are too big on me, they have purple selvage. I found them hidden in the Toronto store. I'd sell em for something cheap.

[baysickbeatz]

^^^

im quite interested in those purple selvedge H&M's....plz PM me with a price.... hopefully we can work something out.

[Guest noogsahoy]

anyone willing to proxy me a pair!

ahaha sooo cheap!
