Hey /fa, long time lurker here. I recent convinced myself that the time of skinny/slim fit jeans is over (or atleast for myself) and decided to buy some vintage levis 501's straight legs. However i really have trouble finding a good silhouette with them and find complementary pieces. I usually go with jeans, coloured New Balances, t-shirt and some shirt/sweat. It usually works with my slim fit jeans, but somehow the fit just gets odd with straight legs. Anyone of you have some good solutions to this?

i have a pair of jeans that are tapered really slim, and there is no stretch in the jeans, so it ended up with me ripping the stitching in the leg opening.

i also have other pairs of tapered skinnies, but they have some stretch in them, and i have no problem putting them on

>> No.9507691

Solution: wear slim jeans.

To elaborate, it sounds like you're trying to wear exactly the same outfits as before but with baggier jeans. That's not good bc the outfits you are replicating look good with slim pants and not baggy ones. With straight leg jeans, new balance look too small and weird and t shirts have to be a little looser too.

What I'm saying is that wearing baggier pants is fine but you have to change the other pieces in your fits too. You need to balance top half with bottom half, because a more visually heavy bottom half usually looks weird in non-high-fashion fits. And honestly, the fits that look good with straight leg jeans are usually like workwear and sometimes palewave. You have to change your whole fit if you change the jean cut.

This is great advice. Thanks anon! If i were to change my wardrobe with look including straight legs jeans, then what would you call that category of fits? What -inspo/-core? Do you have any another general tips than to start wearing baggier tees/shirts/sweaters?

I mainly write this because somehow i began seeing slim leg jeans as a having pic related kind of silhouette and i started to look back for inspo on the men from Hollywoods 50's and 60's film: The mascunline look.

It also seems that once you go with straight legged jeans and a baggier shirt that it's easier to just look like you have a shit fit / you just look disorganized.

They're both fucking sick, the fit is fantastic. Loose enough I can wear boots in, but skinny enough I can wear sneakers.

Your tailor just needs to advise you better. non stretch can be tapered much tighter, 100% cotton you can taper into a nice slim but has a limit as mentioned. my tailor knew the slimmest i could go without running into issues. she's a pro.

Also you may want your tailor to taper from like 5 or 6 inches above the knee, thats what mine did, she said the transition would be too obvious and look like breeches. just start where there is extra space. otherwise you gonna look like an inverted bent pyramid.

Started with APC New Cures, fucking hated skinny jeans due to track runner legs and dick size. Went to New Standards. Decent fit but prefer slimmer / tapered.

Currently wearing PBJ XX-012. Enjoying them so far.

Nothing wrong with Levi's but I definitely perceive the difference in price to quality.

Whatever the case just get your shit hemmed if you need to. It's worth the extra $15 when you're already spending anywhere from $150 to $300 to make the fit perfect.

Anyone have any skinny raw jeans inspo? Whenever I think raw denim I imagine you have to wear it with boots and americana type stuff. Is it even possible to be a skeleton and still pull off raw denim? I want a really nice pair of skinny raws to wear the shit out of, but I'm not sure I've got the pieces to make decent fits with them.

Yup. Just copped the stone wash and the raw versions. Best cut I've ever worn, easily. I didn't size down on mine, just kept my true 32 waist. I think the price is worth it for the perfect fit alone...

so i got these kanye apc jeans, but i feel like the stax are kinda too much and i also imagined the leg opening to be slimmer
i'm leaning towards returning them right now, but if someone got a better idea that would be great
