jeans for the wife, suggestions?

[entrust]

ok so my wife really needs new jeans, currently she has 7s, citizen, joes and true religion all in boot cut and i hate them!! boot cut sucks so i want to get her some straight legs, shes pretty average size 5'7" with really long legs and like 125-130lbs. i want to get some so iron armys but not sure what else? what are some other good brands, nothing raw she won't be into that.

thanks

pics of the wife?

Slings / Stones or Denimbirds pre-distressed, perhaps?

[Whodinihimself]

Acne jeans make some nice womens cuts...subtle looking washes too....they also have a stretch raw if you want to get her started proper... Also try APC jeans ...or uh Nudie jeans ....

[implicit]

my gf loves apc. i'm lucky that way.

[nettiemoore]

geishas if you find a pair.

Skull Linda One Wash?

[kiya]

Kicking Mules Rocker

Sling & Stones Sara or Rachel

Iron Heart TomBoy

Skull Lindas

[isoform]

jbrand (style 914 or 916 for the straight leg look)...truly comfortable, cut with women in mind, quality, good choice of washes, and relatively affordable.

All of those brands (with the exception of TR maybe?) make straight skinny leg cuts. I just took my girlfriend jean shopping not too long ago and she actually found a few nice pairs of 7s, Diesels, Rock and Republics, etc. that were nice and straight. If she likes those brands already, might as well stick to them. Not everyone's a denim nerd.

skull lindas?

im not to sure...girls seem to love tacky accurates, so maybe be she will think your as excitting as dry toast if you bring her something superfuture inspired.

I want to get some denim for my mom she has the thin finns and loves them she likes a higher rise and maybe also something in corduroy but i think the discords might be a lower rise than she wants any suggestions?

[white_giraffe]

new cures are about the same rise i think.

[flex1]

Tsubi....definetely make one of the best if not the best womens jean. most flattering and since girls don't need all that selvage jazz they are perfect.

[bangbangbang]

J Brand makes cords, but the rise might not be high enough.

My wife looks great in raw Jullian Red and these raw WESC (cotton /lycra) selvage jeans

she has.

We do not! One of the reasons I like my lindas is because the back pocket is so bare.

On topic, I third the skull linda suggestion, but compared to the brands you mentioned she wears already (TR, sevens, etc) they feel very substantial and stiff. She might not be too into that.

[Lucas]

Yeah she tried the new cures and said the rise is a little too low so i don't know i heard nudie came out with cords but i think there only in like even steven or one of there losser fits. I can't think of any other jeans that come close to the thin finn rise dior rise is pretty good something more along the lines of that. I heard julian reds are a good fit for women from someone else today too

[white_giraffe]

yeah. try the hobokens. oh, how about skull 5010?

[plongin]

the denim birds look great.

[zelah]

Tsubi/Ksubi, the few pairs I tried are were incredibly tight and I'm pretty skinny... They were uncomfortable, but I still would have gotten them if they weren't ridiculously overpriced.

also i'd disagree with the comment that girls seem to like tacky accents. i mean, evisu... and hypebeasts--i think the dudes who are into fashion can be much more, or as worse, than brandflashing women with Rock & Republic cheese on their backsides.

I'm definitely a female who prefers to have bare pockets, minimal to no distressing, and no obnoxious logos/accents...on jeans or anything else really...

Anyway, I looked up the Skull Lindas and they look really good--how much did you all (those who've said they have 'em) pay for them? The yen to USD from the fabfour site = about 144$ to 158$ which is a decent price for half selvedge raw straight-leg. Anyone know where Lindas are sold in NYC?

They fit differently than I thought they would based on pics on fabfour. Definitely a bit bigger through the calves, but it might be b/c I got the raws and haven't soaked them yet. I got them mine from SelfEdge at a discount and it turned out to be a little below $230 (free shipping + CA tax). If you're in NY, I believe Blue in Green (http://blueingreensoho.com/) has them in stock.

It might be cheaper to order them from fabfour but I wanted to make sure I would be able to exchange them with ease in case I got the sizing wrong.

[rale_injeans]

if she likes those brands, she might be a little resistant to you dressing her up in what you see as better.

that being said, skull lindas are really amazing.

still waiting for pics.

willing to give positive rep
