H&M's "&denim"

[RedFoxxworth]

I just got a pair of straight leg slim black jeans today from H&M for $40. The denim is unwashed, and have a note of them "looking better the longer you wear them." The cut is like a fake APC basically- low rise, straight leg. They run mega small (I had to get a 36 and I wear a 30-32!) but damn, I've been having no luck on straight black jeans and these are the best shit I've seen at H&M ever.

Don't underestimate it for cheap jeans... Interesting they are jumping on the raw denim bandwagon and the branding is solid (minimal, simple, nothing suggesting H&M anywhere on the outside). If I was an expert I'd tell you more...

funny, gap has their raw denim shit too. Haven't tried them on but they look horrible.

weird. one time h and m had second rate selvage jeans. they were on a sale rack for like 12 dollars or something.

You normally wear a 30 and you had to buy a 36?

That's downright unnatural.

I think I posted about these a while back....

I had the same experience..i'm normally a 32 and i had to try on a 36 to even get it to zip-up..and even then, it was waaay too slim for my liking...

but as was mentioned, nice details though...the purple stitching was particularly nice, especially against the black denim.

Oh well.

I dunno if even going up to a 38 or more would even be an option for me....

I got some pants at H&M today, not jeans. I'm usually a 29-30...I had to get a 32. I guess their sizes are wack.

i guess it's different all over, because i picked up the black ones about a month and a half ago, and i'm a 32 and thr 32 fit me fine, albeit a little snug.

i wanted a pair of black jeans and they were there for me, and cheap...i really don't have any problems with h&m as a whole, i just don't really like a lot of their clientele.

They're sized small for sure. Same deal for me as mentioned above. I'm a 30 or less and the 32 fits me in those. They're okay for $40 bones but they're not really a skinny jean, just slim. Fit is almost like a lot of the Acne stuff.

yeah seriously, the cut is horrible in my opinion, especially what seems to be the same extremely slim cut all the way through for all sizes and then the adjusted waistline. I regret the pair that I bought (i wear a 31/32 and its a 34), the leg fits tight but I get a pouchy butt area.

They fit me good and does anyone have a link to the Kate Moss drug video? Thanks.
