Cool Boots!

Carpe Denim! (not the jean brand silly!)

[Blanc0]

Yes, those ARE very nice. Last fall, they did a lower version that was similar, in olive only. I really like the black.

these are cool, except don't like the right back pocket

[Jaymstr]

I just ordered the Deegull Iridescent Cord Jeans. I like the texture on them and that they are black. Plus, I needed a pair of loser fit jeans. I'll post some more detailed pics than are on their site when I get them.

They aren't girls jeans. I swear.

[RafLang]

Thinking of ordering the boots? Your opinion? You think its worth the price? Black or Brown?

[absolut]

those quorteroid jeans are great, a bit pricey imo

[Jaymstr]

They are definitely pricey as all Diesel is, but I'm a bit of a Diesel collector I guess you could say. These are a limited run, and no one here in Philly will have them. So it's definitely unique.

They aren't girls jeans. I swear.

[absolut]

let us know how they fit, if they are true to size and not too big? oh and also the inseam??

im guessing those have to be hemmed?

Edited by absolut on Aug 19, 2005 at 12:30 PM

[Jaymstr]

I'll definitely let you know. I doubt they'll have to be hemmed. All my Diesel size 32's fit me just fine the way they are.

They aren't girls jeans. I swear.

[Geowu]

Today I was wearing my (ripped in the crotch) pair of Diesels, less than a year old, and suddenly there were coins falling off my leg through my ripped Diesel-pocket! shame on you Diesel...

Not to mention my crappy Diesel shoes, which are also ripped in the back! (both originals bought on diesel flagship)

Sorry, I am a fan of Diesel as a brand, and I mean no offence, but the quality is NOT good.

[superposition]

Not many people actually talk bout Diesel, are they any good denim wise?

[Jaymstr]

I'm new to these boards, but I am certainly a fan of them. They were my first venture into the high priced denim world. I guess maybe I play into the trends, but I don't care. It's a style thing. It's the way I like to look and most people can't pull of the look that I do. I love the different designs and the fit and quality of Diesel jeans. There aren't many brands with the same sort of styling to it. Sometimes the styling is over the top, and some would say that it is too much, but that is one of the reasons that I am so attracted to it. People pay attention to the jeans, not just your t-shirt. With a pair of Nudies when you break them in, they are beautiful, but to be honest, most people are going to recognize the Diesels more.

Anyway, I don't want to turn this into a hate on anything thread. Some people like Diesel, and some don't. I get the feeling that most people here don't wear it too often. I like Diesel and I'll continue to wear it, but I'll definitely wear it less now that I have 5 months and 3 weeks to break these Nudie Regular Ralfs in.

P.S. I like Seven for All Mankind jeans too. I get so many comments on my ass from girls when I wear them. They fit better than any other jeans I have worn.

P.P.S. I can't believe that I wrote all that about jeans. They are just pants, but I love them.

They aren't girls jeans. I swear.

[Geowu]

Sorry, I mean Diesel is cool but they fall appart like the cheapest thing

[Jaymstr]

To be honest with you, I don't have anything over a year old, so I hope that doesn't happe, but who knows, maybe it will, and if it happens to one pair, then so be it, if it happens to two, then I'll probably be done with them. But I have talked to people who have Diesel's from 3-5 years ago, and they still wear them and love them, and they are still looking good and fashionable.

They aren't girls jeans. I swear.

[djfischer]

the pants on the pics I really like them. Diesel by itself I do not always like, but this collab is hot!!!

[Corbin Law]

the reason so many poeple hate on diesel, is they are enourmus and like you said people wont recognze your nudies but they will your diesels, some people take pride in the fact that poeple dont know what jeans you are wearing rather than having everyone be able to tell what brand your wearing just my your coin pocket

chwa?

[Geowu]

I'm not hating on diesel... anyone else thinks their quality is worst than Walmart?

[Serge d Nimes]

It is what it is, they are distressed jeans! They will fall apart soon because they are made to look old. I sold all of my diesels 4 years ago, I had like 8 pairs. I was quite the fan! That look is now ubiquitous with highschool and even younger kids now, so I avoid it at all costs! I have been obsessed with dry denim ever sense. If diesel makes a kick ass pair of dry Kulter jeans, I might buy them.

Carpe Denim! (not the jean brand silly!)

[minya]

You can get a pair of boots exactly like those (or better) for a lot cheaper, and probably a lot more durable, at a military surplus store.

[absolut]

how long did they say it will take to get the jeans out to you?

[Jaymstr]

Unfortunately not, but their website says things usually only take 3-4 days.

They aren't girls jeans. I swear.

[absolut]

jaymstr: any update?

[Jaymstr]

Nope, I'm still waiting. If I don't get it in the next few days, I'm going to send them an e-mail or maybe call them.

They aren't girls jeans. I swear.

[Phrederick]

What does it mean that they are corduroy jeans? Are they denim with a texture like corduroy? That sounds really neat.

[Jaymstr]

Alright, they are here. I can answer that question about the corduroy. These are not denim. From the pictures I thought that they were denim with a corduroy texture, but in fact they are just black corduroy. They are however cut like jeans, and they are still very nice though, so I plan on keeping them. I will post pictures when I get a chance.

They aren't girls jeans. I swear.

[Phrederick]

You say "These are not denim" and then you say "they are just black denim." Which one is it?
