Julian Red Jeans.. opinions? fit?

[himatey]

anyone have any expericance with these jeans?

how do they fit.. feel.. opinions? etc

how do the different fits fit on you..?

is the california or the detroit the bootcut/leg ?

[soleindahole]

dont get a california if your waist is more than 32.

[horriblyjollyjinx]

californias are a slim straight or tapered leg, no bootcut. the detroits are the baggiest of their fits.

if you're in the us you could probably get a pair by using their contact email, though I've heard they've stopped selling that way. anyway, if you get a pair that way, they're a steal at $140 with shipping. they're 1400SEK(180USD) in Sweden which is more than the Nudie RR DS which are $265 in the US.

tally-hoo

[himatey]

hmm so.. im asuming the detroits fit like apc english's? or maybe even loose franks??

around what size in those if u wear a 33 apc rescue?

thanks in advance mates

[himatey]

ohhh and anyone got pics of them being worn.. ?? coz i cant make a judgment based on those pics on their website.. =)

[Stewie]

do these fit true to size?

[himatey]

bumping for more info

[dnnsmanace]

Fos5 will get them in november.

Styles in stock Autumn/Winter 2005:

California “No Washâ€, “Ken Park†and “V-Boysâ€

Detroit “Opaque Simsâ€, “No Wash†and “No Wash Blackâ€

[amagab]

Yes, now they got them at http://www.fos5.com

I've did some consultation with the guys at fos5 before I purchased my Nikki Sixx. Most of the Julian Red styles are slim. This is my perception:

California: Regular top with slim leg (in my opinion similar to Nudie Slim Jim)

Detroit: Loose/baggy top with long yoke, with straight leg.

Hoboken: Super slim tapered jeans (similar to Nudie Super Slim Kim)

I guess most people will like the California the best...but if you are into slim jeans you should definitely try the Hoboken Nikki Sixx....that is the pair I got and it's the coolest pair of jeans I've ever owned/seen.

damn, those are cheap. you're paying the same or less than what they cost here in sweden. I think the price will eventually be adjusted so get them while the deal is still going.

hi if i'm a true size 31 but like to wear my jeans like the dude wearing the california's in the julianred website, what size should i go?

thanks in advance.

[horriblyjollyjinx]

washed calis run about one size big, so I'd say a 30 in those.

on second thought, I'm a 31 or 31.5 and a pair of JR Calis w29 fit me just fine. I like to get my jeans a bit smaller in the waist.

[horriblyjollyjinx]

probably calis, but I think they have a slightly higher rise than those. legs would be about the same though, I think.

SOME GIRLS ARE BIGGER THAN OTHERS

[colin]

from what I understand, all 3 cuts have a high rise

[saepnirg]

damn was hoping to try for the hoboken nikki sixx. i can go slimmer than what was in the picture tho but im concerned about the rise. hobokens look the lowest rise to me cos i like to wear em low and a higher rised pair wld leave a rather droopy behind

better to burn out than fade away

[horriblyjollyjinx]

go for a pair of hobokens then Can't help you with sizing though. And btw, the rise on the Calis arent a big deal, I wear my jeans rather low too and they look great.

SOME GIRLS ARE BIGGER THAN OTHERS

[ddohnggo]

are the californias pictured on the front page of the fos5.com site on the dude with the grey hoodie?

[horriblyjollyjinx]

yes

[dnnsmanace]

Those are fuckin fire.

[saepnirg]

okok thanks for all the help guys. tink im gonna take the plunge for a pair of hobokens. anyone with experience on these? amagab or fos5? how do their sizes run?

better to burn out than fade away

[edwin]

if you were interested in the california v-boys

california v-boy fit. eehhh. comparing it to apcs almost makes me gag. i hate using the comparison. its almost like comparing the fit of kicks with dunks. bleh. but here goes.

california v-boys in a 30 fit like apc ns in a 28 AFTER they stretch. the thigh is slightly looser (by not that much) in the julian reds.

[J0HN]

well i have a pair of Hobokens and Californias, and i love the fit on the hobokens they are super slim and stretchy, I did a big mistake when i bought the Californias becouse it was when i went from baggy to slim and i didint dare to wear to slim jeans and now a think the calis are to baggy! but the quality is amazing!

both models have a rather high rise, i like to wear my jeans low, and if i wear low rise jeans i show alot of body i dont usuly want to show, but the great thing about julians is that you can have the low fitting style and still have them hanging on youre waist and not the bottom of youre ass

i rest my case

[himatey]

anyone have any pics of detorits being worn??

ohh damn and fos5 dont hvae plan no wash detorits.. gay..

how do the black no washes look?? anyone seen in real life?

[shinobi2000]

i asked this in the last thread on Julian Reds but I didn't get a response -- anybody know which cut was available at the Vice store in Soho a few months ago? I tried them on and they fit perfectly but I passed on them and now I"m regretting it. I know they weren't as slim as the Hobokens seem to be, so they were either the Californias or teh Detroits.

In that case, definitely the Californias. The Detroits look almost as baggy as Nudie's Baggy Bjorn.

[himatey]

mann... i wish there was a fit in between the slim(californias) and the detroits.....

might have to go for 1 size down detroits...

fos5 dont have the indigo no wash's .. damnnit!

[makoxboi]
