oohlala, these are sickk vonWitzleben! How long have you been wearing? Front is amazing, back needs moar honeycomb fadez.

Around 20 months on and off. It was my first pair of Diors but as the collection grew those were getting less wear in the last 14 months or so. They probarbly have around 250 full wears.

They have quite some honeycomb fading (at least more than the pic suggests), but I am not so much into extremly high contrast fading anyways. Hence I washed them relatively regularly after initial wearing in phase (prolly 5 hand washes with woolite dark).

I just got the Griffith Park and Mulholland Drive washes on sale at the DH new york boutique...not sure how many sizes are left, but they're definitely 50% off...

[MikeV]

could someone post pics of grifith parks in some good lighting? i've seen pics like the ones with kanye wearing them where the thigh creases don't seem that bad and others where they look horrendous.

also they're pretty dark right?

and thanks to the guy who posted the mulholland drive jeans on the last page, really appreciated.

[C_Troy242]

hey where are you getting those mulholland drives from? i have a pair in 29 and im considering to get a pair in size 28.

Buddy, you know me. Luisa I got them from.

@MikeV: ur welcome, pal

[comeasyouare]

hi troy i've got my size 29 from luisaviaroma but they are all sold out on that online store alr =( damn i shld have gone for a smaller size 29 fits me loose on the waist.

[C_Troy242]

Hm, yeah don't know where to get them now. Maybe from dior stores directly (NY, LV?).

@Mike: Here's my pair in pretty natural lightning. But beware, the wash varies quite a bit. Can be a little more bland quite easily.

Are you guys buying anything at the DH sale? This is the first season in a looong time that I'm not getting anything, not even a T-shirt. Feels kind of weird, but at least I have more money to buy Hedi-era stuff.))

Have you checked out the new FW/10 collection "Coal" at LVA? Some of the jeans look OK but the rest does not impress me.

[lookatme]

does anyone know there will be a new dior homme store in san francisco?

[dr.evil]

hi everyone i am new to this! and i just picked up my dior jeans today at the 5th ave store in manhattan i have to say that dior jeans is the best out of all my jeans that i have..from APC to wesc to g-star to marc jacobs. i have to say that dior is the bomb!

question! if i was raw denim MIJ would they shrink?

[vonWitzleben]

Shrinkage is only minimal (less than 5%) as they are sanforized.

[chenmeister]

what color vans authentics go well with diors? i have white but need a new pair and diors don't go with bright colored shoes. unlike apc's and the hypebeast fashion.

[dr.evil]

i bought a sz 32 whats the most it can stretch to?

because before dior i used to wear apc and i remember i bought my true to the size jeans with was a 32 and it stretched to a sz 35...so i am just wondering.

and the raw dior denim i have is the new one with the silver line by the waist.

[griffin]

You might want to exchange for a 31 if your true size is 32.

[kkurenaii]

dr evil: from my exp, the mij raws could stretch up to two inches. jeans itself alr runs two" inches bigger than tagged size.

if urs is a 32", it would be 32+2= 34" and then stretches up to 36" MAX.

but just wear a belt, it shud solves the problem

[asher_roslynn]

Sorry if this was discussed recently; has anyone been to the Las Vegas boutique recently for their sale (I think someone mentioned a sale of sorts there)? If so, were any good jeans/sneakers on sale? I'm heading down there in a couple weeks- thinking of picking up some deals if I can find any

if they stretched to a 35 then maybe 35 is your true size? but because of stupid vanity sizing your proberly a 34? so you should be good

[griffin]

Picked these up today for 40% off at Barney's. 19cm MIJ "Fuel for Fire" jeans.

[C_Troy242]

They look awesome! Are they 19cm? And do they have that superthick denim as they sure appear so?

[comeasyouare]

hey griffin anymore sizes 29 left in that wash at barney's? willing to proxy them over to me? =)

[griffin]

C_Troy: They are 19cm, made of the normal MIJ denim.

comeasyouare: Not sure if they have any more 29s. I'm not up for being a proxy, but I'm sure there are plenty of people in New York who are.

[comeasyouare]

oic. btw whats the price that you got them for after the discount?

anyone from new york up for being a proxy????

[MikeV]

I phone ordered some jeans from DH NY, how long do they usually take to ship? Do I have to sign for them?

[Shoya]

New collection from Dior Homme F/w in LVR. Blue Crash seems to be my pick

[andypants91]

Hey guys, sorry if this has been asked but looking at the 19cm MIJ http://www.luisaviaroma.com/index.aspx#getData.aspx|CallType=Product&prodId=06V17&des=4HH&cat=&gender=men&group=&vendorColor=NTAw&season=actual&seasProdID=52I it seems there is no selvedge line similar to APC NS, does this mean these jeans aren't raw or is this normal with dior raw denim?

[vonWitzleben]

Raw denim in general doesnt need to be selvadge. Dior has two selvadge lines though: Red Selvadge (shitty, made in Morocco) and the higher quality Silver Selvadge (made in Japan) but thinner than standard MIJ Dior. The ones you are referring to are the standard sanforized raw Diors, made in Japan (probarbly as I cant follow the link). Luisa calls them Brut Jeans.

The other non-selvadge line is the made in Italy line (different cut, even though being 19cm as well). Luisa calls those Nostalgy Jeans.

heyya first post on this thread. i just got back home with this beauty from dior, but am having doubts whether to keep em or not. got them at about 410usd after 30% discount in the boutique (stuff in singapore are expensive like hell). yeah so lemme know what you guys think of this mulholland drive in 29.

i love the details on the jeans

[asher_roslynn]

^ those are sweet; I'd probably keep them.

On a short and redundant note, anyone out there size down one from their raw black size to indigo MIJ? I just got a 29 MIJ indigo fairly used pair, compared to my own 29 black raws of 2 years, but it feels like they're two completely different fits. I know indigo stretches more, but the lower leg/calf area seems bigger on the indigos either way. Both are 19cm.

If that's the case, I may be throwin' up a pair of MIJ indigo 29's for sale, or trade for a 28 if there's one out there

[comeasyouare]

hey kirivin theres a sale at the dior boutique at ion?

[Vanquish Gold]

I've also gotten an invite to Ion Dior Homme private sale, glad I didn't go.
