Some day I'd like to see Blake's 100+ collection of jeans

There is some amazing stuff (a nevada jean in the box with a letter from the president of levi's), and some super lame stuff (like my first pair of Mavi's). None of it is getting thrown out though. I do not know what I would do if I did not have a basement.......

Do the Context Black 1980's get very shiny?

Do the Context Black 1980's get very shiny?

They actually start out shiny. I soaked mine and the shine went away.

[Akre]

BeauIXI - They do not get shiny or leather looking like Nudies Black Coated, if that's what you're wondering.

[EdenResident]

Quick question. I'm a size 28 in the Nudie Straight Sven. What size should I get in the 1980 (the 1980 black selvage to be more specific)?

[sm2s]

i would stick with a 28, though you might have to squeeze into them at first.

That's interesting because from everything else I've seen and read, it seems like the opposite should be true.

From the Context site: "Warp and weft dyed denim will develop a subtle and unique fade over time-- a brilliant sheen"

Pictures I've found. Sorry if these are yours because I can't give credit, they were found amongst boards. They're both in various stages of wear and while they don't look like leather, have a very obvious sheen.

I think those have never been washed. That is what I was saying. they start off with a sheen and once you soak them, it goes away.

Thank you.

[BeauIXI]

I kind of meant more along the lines of a patina, the likes of which you would notice on a pair of Nudie RRDS or something else selvage, not like a dry coated shine.

[fornicatard]

lame size question. I wear a size 28 in DH19cm [tight] and size 29 in skulls 50106x6 o/w [tight in the waist, not so tight in the thighs/calves] What size rockers do you guys think will do the best job for me? Is the fit best comparable to RRL's slim fit or skull 5010's?

[fornicatard]

anyone? 123

[cjbreed]

anyone? 123

I wear a 33 in skull 5010XX 6x6 raw and a 33 in KMW. And I think the o/w skulls are a full inch smaller in the waist than the raw. So, for you I'd suggest a 29 for tight fit and 30 for looser fit. They do stretch a small amount....

[vesses]

Im sorry if this has already been covered before -

I want to order the KMW 1980s. If I wear a 32 Nudies Average Joe, would I get these in the same size?

[ryandenim]

Here are long awaited images of my pair of the Context Exclusive KMW 1980 Black Selvage. I've received hella questions about fade, stretch, sheen, shine, and color change on these. Pics provide answers. The when new the denim is THE MOST RIGID FABRIC you will find anywhere. Some soak theirs, I did not. I would recommend not soaking. They are sanforized (and thus will shirk almost zero with a soak). The folds and creases will be more pronounced without a soak= better fades.

2.5 months daily wear. No Wash No Soak. They have stretched one inch in the waist.

You can see a shine developing. They feel waxy.

[ryandenim]

if you look closely at the leg openings on the full front image, you'll see that they will not lay flat. A good visual of their stiff nature.

please email me or Sam at [email protected] with any questions.

[Guest DenimBar1]

Yo Context how many pair of Awa's do you have left?

Gimmie a PM

[ryandenim]

The KMW leather patch ages great. I think it deserves a close up shot.

[n0cturnal]

very hyped to get a pair of rockers in the next few months (still working on NS)

ok so while rockers are tapered, 1980 is a straight slim?

I would get a size 31 if I were you. I bought mine true to size, they stretch out to 1 size bigger and now I wish I would've went a little smaller.

These are size 31's here and I should have gotten a 30.

Pretty much, when I first got them I thought they were pretty slim, they do stretch after a while. If you want them slim fitting you would need to size down 1 or 2 sizes. Otherwise, I would describe them as more of a relaxed fit. The pics above are size 31/34 1980's

[vesses]

one more question

Im deciding between the 1980s raw or rinse.

I prefer darker jeans, the rinse looks darker in the pics Ive seen -

does anyone have both that can help me?

[EdenResident]

These look amazing. Too bad context ran out of size 28.
