Distressed Black Denim

[Servo2000]

I believe we already have a black denim thread, but that seems to be more for black raw denim. I'm interested to see if anyone knows of any good distressed black denim?

Personally, I'm looking for something that fits awfully slim (i.e. April Colordrives) in some sort of distressed (I suppose "worn" is more what I'm looking for, not so much tears and such although if they're well done it wouldn't bother me terribly).

the old washed black imperial dukes were pretty sweet... I think diesel has one or two black washes that are pretty nice, but i can't be bothered to remember their numbers

Nudie did a washed black Super Slim Kim a season or two ago.

julian red has the grey gardens in hoboken, their skinniest cut, a raw black with subtle creases preset, very natural looking, i just received them from a trade, it was intended for my sister but their too small for her, its size 30 guys, if u want em i can sell it to you:D

Those black distressed pledge ones look half-decent. What's the price point? Retailers?

Since the choice for distressed black isn't that good, have you considered getting some cheaper blacks in the cut you want, not even with good quality denim, and distressing them yourself? A Combination of nice smooth concrete steps, sand, water, and a few wash cycles should do it. You'll get much better looking wear in an hour than some chinese factory worker will put into it in the 5 minutes they get per pair.

Seemed to be pretty standard practice in the old days when all you could get was raw and the young'uns didn't want to wear raw. I've hear stories of people taking hot baths in their jeans and scraping them across concrete steps to soften them up just to get them to a wearable state.
