Let's talk about BLACK COATED JEANS

[JazzyJake]

If you are having trouble finding/dont want to splash out on black coated jeans, you can do it yourself by painting them with black acrylic paint. That is essentially what nudie and acne do and it looks pretty sweet. My brother did it to a pair of cheaper ones as a little experiment and they looked great.

i love the subtle shine of them. i really want to get some, but can anyone comment on how they feel on compared to other jeans?

i can't help but think it'd get a little warm in pants coated in wax or plastic...doesn't sound so breathable...

but i'm guessing it's probably a thin enough layer to not really make much of a difference.....right?

[chronoaug]

[rielvsplaid]

Hmm.. Acne Mic Raven or Uniqlo Selvedge Black SS00?

they fit great in the legs, but dont you find the waist alittle big in proportion?

mm has some of the nicest black coated denim ever, but they are just a straight leg fit. did anyone mention this yet?

[kunk75]

not the time of year to be buying these anywhere. any one else notice coated jeans provide a crazy pair of stink balls?

I know what you mean. I have weird proportions though. I'm pretty slim and 6ft, but i have a 31-32 waist compared to others i know with similar proportions and a 30waist. The rise is really low so they work out well, plus my basketball playing legs appreciate the extra thigh room.

there are better ways to coat jeans...

[jcotteri]

discords werent coated, only coateds were the pixels

i always thought that the pixels had a sheen and you could get coated discords coated a few seasons ago. could be misinformation though

[kstanl]

Such as?

I'm very interested in how these DIY methods actually turn out. There has been a couple of wax threads but they didn't look very nice..

damn, i cant find the picture of the actual process of how mm painted their jeans. seems like they were plastered on a blank wall and hand-painted black all over. (does anyone have this picture? i have seen it before floating on the net.)

they do make one of the stiffest coated black denim... i remember holding one and it feels so stiff! but i read that they wear down very nicely with interesting fades and combs.

not really black coated but these are the ones which are white painted levis 501s. as worn by ryan mcginley. really nice laidback profile.

Member designersheep is selling a used pair of the grey painted mm jeans. Pretty nice looking in the up close shots

Il get him to take some pics. Acrylic paint really is nasty stuff to get off with water esp the more expensive brands and it has just kinda bonded into the fabric. I think he also mixed it with a small amount of screen printing retardent to give it a slight rubbery sheen(simillar to what a screened shirt is like just not as thick). They have not been worn or washed much at all tho, as between us we have much nicer pairs

[JonathanFrom508]

dumb question but I can never tell which drkshdw jeans are coated

on diabro for example it doesn't mention that any of them are coated

is this because they don't carry coated drkshdw denim or just because they don't label correctly, I've noticed they stuggle a bit with descriptions sometimes

edit: also can anyone tell me where i can find an english site the carries coated superfine jeans?

[Matay]

do david jones carry coated superfines?

[kstanl]

I don't think they carry superfine at all, do they?

[wrongandright]

sevennewyork had the black coated jeans, but they're sold out now. www.oaknyc.com and www.matchesfashion.com don't have the blacks, but they do have they greys.

and some other sites that carri(ed) superfine are:

www.shopjake.com

www.barneys.com

[kunk75]

in the hopes of killing this thread, spot blown:

yoox fall/winter preview has the coated black superfines in everything from a 29 to 38 right now. pretty cheap, too.

[jcotteri]

anyone seen any mm jeans floating around, i would love to see a price point on these
