Naked & Famous Denim

[bodychariot]

Here are my broken twill skinny guys, about 4 1/2 months wear (2-3 times a week) and 3 washes.

[Geeman]

That's a lot of washes and crotch wear for 4.5 months

[bodychariot]

Yea i had a couple food spills , im out in korea and the food is messy or im clumsy. Also. The skinny guy fit is a bit tight in the waist for me, it stretched so now its fine but ill get weird guy my next purchase of nf denim...maybe elephant 4

[Geeman]

I'm the other way round! I have WG now but SG works better for me. May also have to cop the E4!

[HGS]

The WG will give you much less room in the top block.  Short rise is a killer. 

[KW-BOW]

The WG actually has more room in the top block than the SG. WG cut is a straight leg until the knee where it tapers into the clean leg opening, Skinny guy is basically a slim straight. The WG is a higher rise than the SG. Some people actually consider the WG a low rise but it's a mid-rise. Each model varies so it's best to compare measurements for each style.

People who wear repro cuts tend to find the rise small, cause most that stuff is like 12" high, It's too high for my liking but i'm also about 5ft8 150lbs so I don't have a ton of junk in the trunk.

Gotchya then sounds like wg is for me! I went to the pop up store of naked amd fampus in korea two weeks ago and saw the upcoming fall winter models. Ill try to post pics soon

some shots of my n&f x bj before they go in for a wash/out for repairs. I've had these for 2 years, not sure how much wear they have as I tend to rotate...maybe 6 months worth? anyway, wish they fit me a little better, I love the denim.

can't wait to get these back from denim therapy!

interested in acquiring the okayama but confused about the sizing because of these statements:

 

from blueowl blog:

while the fabric is unsanforized, it has been hot iron pressed which removes much of the shrinkage. You can expect .25"-.5" in the waist and .5"-.75" in the inseam.

 

from tate and yoko:

Expect 1" of shrinkage in the waist, and 2" in length when soaked/washed for the first time.

 

there's also sizing difference between here: http://shop.tateandyoko.com/products/naked-famous-super-skinny-guy-okayama-spirit and here: http://scout.rawrdenim.com/brands/naked-famous/denim-jeans/naked-famous-super-skinny-guy-okayama-spirit-raw-denim-jeans

 

which one should i trust? 

 

also, is it ok to soak them in cool water for 15 minutes or so if i want minimal shrinkage? thanks.

Hey, I own a pair in size 34 and here were the measurements pre-soak:

Waist: 17 inches across

Front Rise: 10 inches

Back Rise: 13 inches

Upper Thigh: 12 inches

Leg Opening: 7.5 inches

I didn't take any post-soak measurements but there was no significant shrinkage anywhere after an hour of warm soak, maybe a half inch in the waist and inseam, but the denim stretches very easily. I'd say go TTS (but expect to wear a belt) or size down 1 if you want a very slim fit.

Just received the Naked & Famous x Big John x Rockin Jelly Bean collab Ruri denim in Super Skinny Guy. Size 32 but the thighs are way too big.

Anyone interested for far under retail they seem like a great pair of jeans, just looking for a good owner?

[birofunk]

My weird guy blue wefts have been getting a good bit of wear of late and are starting to fade nicely.

[Xstan]

recently got the black  32oz, will be happy days ahead.

After a wash, a repair, and a hem, my Elephant 2 Skinny Guys at 4.5 months

Edited July 7, 2014 by SamLJack

[manyerp]

so i got these skinny guys LHT a week ago and i"m debating whether to hem them or not because i wanna lessen the volume of the roll but still maintaining the stacks. I need opinions on how they fit.

 

p.s: forgive my short legs haha

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

heres how they look unrolled and with the stacks

 

 

 

 

[BukkakeKing]

I would definitely hem. Did you give them a soak !? That could actually help you a bit!

[manyerp]

i havent soaked them yet but arent they sanforized? so the shrinkage would be minimal but i might be wrong.

[Geeman]

Hem without a doubt 

[manyerp]

ok going to get them hemmed. how much would it shrink after the first wash? or do i need it to wash before hemming even if they`re sanforized?

Edited August 2, 2014 by manyerp

[Geeman]

If you are going to have them hemmed to the exact length you may as well soak first if you hemming but leaving some length to stack a bit then no need. If you ever going to hot wash best to soak now. 

[Geeman]

Why did they have to go and release Elephant 4 in blue/black....was all set to replace my E2's till I saw the black weft.

Oh my. I can't tell why I haven't found it. Thanks!

[Robert van Santen]

My Skinny Guy Elephant 4 arrived today! 

I am glad I sized up because they run quite small. 

It is only not that Skinny, but for a denim in this weight it is maybe better..

 

Really wonder how they will look after some months of wearing.

 

I will post updates/pictures along the way!
