Naked & Famous Denim

[PeterParker]

Naked & Famous Weird Guy

Size 31

This is my first pair of raw denim and I bought it back in December. I tore my ankle ligament so i couldn't wear them for a month so about 5 months of wear. No washes/rinses

I want to get a pair of APC's but I want a looser fit at the thigh part. Just a more consistent fit if that's the right word to use. What cut and size would you guys suggest?

Your Weird Guys are looking good! Keep at them and they should turn out great. The fit looks pretty similar to my size 31 Weird Guys, except mine are a little roomier in the thigh (I probably should have sized down 2 instead of 1). Yours is definitely one of the better WG fits that I've seen so far.

As for recommendations for your next pair, what fit are you going for (slim, relaxed, tapered, straight leg, etc.)? It would also help to know your measurements (true waist , thighs, inseam). I think we're about the same size, and I find most slim cuts work well (tapered or straight). Going from N&F to APC, I think you'll be disappointed. If you want to try a pair of slim straights, the 3sixteen SL denim is a great alternative to APC NS at a similar price point.

Just got in some Weird Guy indigo's. The best part is I paid $78 during Farinelli's sale.

Definitely could have sized down one. The Weird Guy cut isn't very forgiving or flattering when sized too big. I had a similar fit in the top block for my Deep Indigo WG's when I first had them, and I hated how they fit. I ended up hot soaking the top block which got them to shrink and fit better. Depends on the fit you're going for, I guess, but IMO they'd look best sized down one more (2?)

^yeah i agree with peterparker.. could have used an extra size down. right now it's very amorphous..

[freestyl]

I think it just has to do with how they look on me new, due to the denim being stiff still. They fit snug and the first day of wear(today) was a little uncomfortable. I have a butt and muscular thighs/calves so I think once they are broken in they will look great.

does n&f make a size smaller than 29?

[mmmdonuts]

^yes they make 28's in some styles..

[ole]

in all styles, even slim guy. i dont know why they're so hard to find

[feelgooduproar]

does soaking n&f weird guys really do much? they're sanforized aren't they?

[Hendodo]

theyre sanforized, but soaking them initially takes off the excess starch/dye and the minimal shrinkage b4 you wear them.

[snuff_daddy]

yes they are all sanforized

[randomkoreandude]

i thought they were like apcs and so no need to soak.

[feelgooduproar]

any tips on soaking?

[randomkoreandude]

wait im confused so we should presoak n&f denim?

[shark jacobs]

its entirely up to personal preference.

soaking will have no meaningful effect on the size of naked and famous jeans, but it may effect the texture, stiffness/starchiness, and how much dye rubs off on your couch and the tops of your shoes

[freestyl]

N&F are sanforized

[ole]

i don't see why presoaking is needed with sanforized denim

[Hendodo]

its not needed , but sanforized doesnt mean no shrinkage, just minimal. so i just soak initially regardless .

no discriminating on jeans

24 oz denim with a 7mm thick leather patch!!

[mmmdonuts]

holy f*ck. cool!

[shark jacobs]

t.hat patch is hilarious

[Johnnylazar]

The patch is crazy and kind of over the top, but it might be cool to see a belt made out of leather that thick. Kind of like the samurai belts, but 1mm thicker.

[mmmdonuts]

if i remember correctly the sammies also have a 24oz and the leather patch is also that thick...
