I know that nudies don't get too much love around here, but I'd like to share mine anyway.

First: Regular Alf Dry Selvage, worn for 10 Months straight without wash in the last pics.

Second: Slim Jim Dry Japan, worn for 10 Months before first wash, washed twice up to now.

Nice RRDS !!!

[BAerts]

Nudies look great! The trend is toward washing more, these days, it seems, so it's cool to see some grimey denim again.

Nudies are looking great, people always bash on nudies for having shit quality denim, but i love my pair. I think people just size wrong which leads to having problems with them denim.

[Baeyer-Drewson]

^The denim itself is OK (although it generally has less character than most of the denim we see in these parts) but the construction is definitely inferior to most Japanese repro brands.

[DoitsuJin]

They get a bad rep due to the overwhelming fashion statement the brand tries to make, but the selvedge jeans are of good quality and good deals are easy to find. I would agree that there isn't much to write home about in terms of construction, but that also isn't the intent of their designers. (at least they have chain stitching!)

[jlaz93]

i guess i agree, i think the best thing about them is the cuts and the ability to find deals. i got my pair of slim jims at barneys for 70 dollars. For 180 or so which is retail price you can get a far more superior pair of jeans but for sub 100 its prob some of the best denim you can pick up.

[Max Power]

Thanks guys. I agree, that jap repros offer nicer fabric, though I love the Dry Selvage of Nudie also and I have no quality issues. The cuts are what makes nudies appealing, as they are more modern than most jap brands. But right now I go more towards jap brands, but love nudies nevertheless, as they got my love for raw denim started.

Cheers!

[street assassin.]

Was going to take some photos of my ironheartsssss. but I found a random pic from 4 months ago. which i thought looked cool. just me and my friend in ironhearts.

EDIT: i'm the one on the rightttt.

[iwontlivetofind]

These ones are my superdry's. I don't know much about the brand or anything but these jeans are some pretty heavy weight denim (my guess is around 19oz). These are after two washes and about 10 months of wear.

[yakrian]

I didn't realise SuperDry made raw denim, even less selvedge...Whereabouts did you pick those up?

[jlaz93]

isnt superdry like a British equivalent to diesel?

[jstavrin]

Something tells me those aren't 19oz.

[eyeball knight]

Naked and Famous weird guys regular indigo at 8 months.

Heh, those are 40% of the original size. Maybe you should get a monitor not 17"? Fits fine on my 24" WS.

I know you're jelly.
