Imperial Jeans

[haptronic]

only one colour in the raw dukes,

i don't own any nudies but when i have tried them on i needed a 29 if that helps

the dukes gave me bruises on the first day, now they have stretched out nicely

[LanceP]

Thanks a lot. I just e-mailed the Imperial info. Hopefully he can help me out with waist sizing, and I'm really hoping they still have some more dukes left over.

Can anyone else help me out some more with sizing?

[jane doe]

so hap you have prewashed black 30 and blue raw 30 in duke right...

if i am a 32 in raw blue will i be 32 in prewashed black

[haptronic]

it worked for me, the fit is close enough to be right, except that my washed has an inseam of 32

and raw has an inseam of 36

oop i forgot to mention my imperial size before

[edit: guffer has a washed and a raw as well so ask him, i beleive he may have had a nudie RR so will know that size conversion better than me]

Yeah, I was just reading over the thread again. It looks like he got a 34W in the raw dukes, but I think that might be a little too loose for me, and I'm not sure how he wears his jeans. I might end up picking the 32W 'cause I'm assuming it'll stretch out a good deal since it's raw. Hopefully it doesn't end up too tight.

Guffer: I read you wear a 32W in Nudies, is it loose on you, or a perfect fit? And were the 34W raw dukes a perfect fit for you before you put them in the dryer? I just really want these jeans, haha, that's why I'm asking all these questions.

[Denim R]

i have 28 bootcut olas and a 30 DUKE raw.

problem with me giving you advice is i don't wear my nudies anymore and i'm sure i have put on a little weight recently.

so perhaps i would wear 29 in nudies now!

hope this helps/

It has been weeks since I've heard from Info. Has anybody who ordered a pair in the last month got them yet? I'd love to see pics of the jeans I'll probably never get.

I emailed info about 2 weeks ago and still no word :/

[obsessis]

INFO is definitely MIA.

[LanceP]

I've decided on 32W for the raw dukes. Thanks a lot for the help guys. Hopefully I can still order them.

[Handlethevibe]

You guys will have to wait awhile til they get more in.

[johninger]

If loving denim is wrong i don't want to be right.

Well, that actually made me laugh out loud a bit. Nice.

[johninger]

great.

minya when are we going to see photos of your new dukes

edit - and serge for that matter, serge have you cold soaked yours before wearing?

Well excuse me! Excuse me...

Mine will be here next week, pictures as soon as I get them. I think I'm going to focus on my d'artisans though because the initial days of wearing them were so brutal that now that they're finally comfortable I feel like I've accomplished something meaningful.

[johninger]

It is a big decision when you have two raw projects available.

You say brutal and haptronic was talking earlier about bruises. I have never had that much trouble. However, I have a little padding on me which is probably an advantage.

Well excuse me! Excuse me...

[chadler]

so has anyone found info on when the indigo stitching back pocket version will be released?

[johninger]

last time i posted that i wanted the indigo stitching someone said it was due next season. look earlier in the thread

Well excuse me! Excuse me...

ultrasuite here in brisbane didn't get any

[metalslugthc]

So I am 27 in New Standards, woud a 30 in Raw Dukes be right? It seems like it would be from what people on here have been saying.

[haptronic]

sounds perfect, i have a 28 in apc cure, and they are at least a size to big for me, the 30 in the duke is just right.

[LanceP]

hap... Are these the raw dukes or the washed?...

[haptronic]

Lance P

they are the same pair that you posted above ie raw, the washed that i have are black with white stitching, and you can find them on the first page of this thread.

Oh word, these just looked more towards the black side than the ones I posted above. Forgot you posted your black washed in here. Just making sure... thanks.

[haptronic]

the learned johninger said that he thought the denim was sulphur topped, which would be why they have a blackish tinge.

read what he has to say about indigo dipping and denim colour in this thread

btw johninger I am still waiting for your photos of your pairs of the "un-named brand"

[polly7]

I want to see more photos too

It felt like there was quite a few people getting them recently but haptronic and obsessis were the only two to post photos?????

[Serge d Nimes]

Ok

Carpe Denim! (not the jean brand silly!)

[haptronic]

Serge d Nimes

did you write that date on the pocket bag? [mm/dd/yyyy, aussies would write dd/mm/y]

they look like they are getting small indigo movement already.

[Serge d Nimes]

Yeah, I have always wanted to keep track of washes and stuff by writing the info on the pocket bags, so I made sure I did it this time. I wrote it American style. I am getting some good indigo loss already at oly 2 weeks! The are gonna look great!
