Well I'll admit to what that one Anon said that they do have some crazy good steals year round. But I feel all these collabs goes against
>After growing tired of celebrity culture and its impact on the denim industry, Svarc wanted Naked & Famous to be a purely product-based denim label that cut out celebrity endorsement and advertising. He hoped that this approach would result in an affordable, high-quality product. He didn’t want his products to be known for who was wearing them, but rather how they looked, felt, and were produced—always in Canada, and always from raw, un-distressed Japanese denim.
I'll admit it's not like a huge issue or something that makes the brand bad. I love their weird experimental jeans and I have a few I want but the collabs just seem excessive and I guess tacky for lack of a better word. I like the pinup women, it's charming and has a lot of character but I could see why people find it tacky just because the cuts have stupid names (weird guy, easy guy) and their collabs make it seem like this is a brand for virgins. Elvira jeans? Jojo jeans? Ghostbuster jeans? Street fighter jeans? Rick and monty pickle rick jeans? I prefer stuff like the Matsuri jeans, the elephant 11 Grandrelles, those extremely slubby jeans, these 15th anniversary jeans are also pretty cool and have a very nice and clean aesthetic compared to the collabs.

I have a pair of Indigo Levi's jeans that are fine but I'd like a second pair of indigo jeans that won't fade. Should I just buy a second pair of Levi's? Raw denim seems to be all about muh fades and I'm not trying to spend $400 on those Pure Blue NC jeans so in that case should I just avoid raw denim and buy pre-washed? Was thinking about getting these https://www.weargustin.com/store/jeans-556-gustinxvidalia-indigoxblack# but they have a white yarn core, any recommendations for some with a dyed core like these https://japanblue-jeans.com/latest/exclusive-item-j0584jz-13-5oz-cote-d-ivoire-cotton-selvedge-standard-jeans-natural-indigo.html ?

Anything with natural indigo dye will bleed and fade over time. My recommendation for people who want a pair of decent dark jeans without the hasdle is Levi's 502 in dark blue from the premium line. They are straight with a slight taper so should fit most people well, don't rely on trends so won't get dated in a couple of years and the quality is pretty good for the price. Just a handful of $ over the regular line but much better material and stitching.
They also olde the color pretty well and for long.
If you're OK with some bleeding and fading and want a more natural looking indigo color, get the 501s 150th anniversary.
Both options should be easily available at any mall near you.

>so in that case should I just avoid raw denim and buy pre-washed?
you can just treat raw denim like normal jeans too, they stop bleeding after the first wash or two. its a little bit nicer than buying dark wash jeans with juan and carlos' sandpaper whiskers job done on it.
most raw denim brands will sell 1-2 rinse pairs of jeans already softened up that typically won't bleed, or you can just throw raws in the wash a few times for the same effect.

If you like Levi’s, just get one pair of Iron Hearts. They’re essentially the perfected version of the 501. They take a long time to fade and fully break in too, so it’s not like you’d be destroying them in a short time. You’ll have them for a long while. On top of that, you can send them to Self Edge for really great repair services if they ever get holes. They use a darning machine, it’s fixes holes without making it look like you did some really ghetto patchwork

Thank you, I will take a look at all of these. I try to use the size charts a lot before buying. Is there a typical amount of inches you’ll leave for tolerance at the hip or thigh for a comfortable/looser fit which doesn’t feel restrictive to move around in?

100% cotton jeans will have about an inch and a half of stretch in the waist over time. If you get a pair with waist and thigh dimensions that are matching your true waist and thigh dimensions, it should be a good fit and will stretch some to fit you perfectly over time. I have a 33.5” waist and will always get size 34 in the iron hearts because the true waist size for that pair is around 33.5”. If I get one size smaller, I can’t manage to button them up fully. That being said, try the best you can to not get a waist size that is even 0.5” smaller than your true waist size. You’re going to probably find out that it’s a bitch to button up

Most places don't offer hip measurements unfortunately. I go by thigh and aim to have at least 0.5" of room there, as well as at least 12" of front rise and 16" of back rise. That's on a jeans that measure 32 or 33 inches in the waist so you'll likely want something proportionally higher

>athletic fit? slim fit?
It's actually 2" bigger in the waist but they wont tell their over-the-hill or skinnyfat customer base that because they wouldn't 'feel good' and then they wouldn't buy it

I wouldn’t. Whenever I tried on selvedge denim in store, it was almost impossible to completely button the waist if it was at least 0.5” smaller than my true waist size. This was with multiple pairs from different companies too. It wouldn’t be the same with stretch denim, but raw 100% cotton denim is stiff when new. It’s always better to buy something that will already fit you perfectly (unless it’s unsanforized and you’re expecting shrinkage)

If your cock is like 9”+, I’d probably think a straight fit Jean with a high rise is what you need. Check out iron heart 888. If you have beefy quads, this will be a good fit since it has a small amount of taper and will give you a good leg silhouette

I've tried both on and the taper makes a huge difference. The 888 I wanted to buy (14oz OD) in size 33 were painted on from mid thigh down while still being about an inch big in the waist. My gunpowder kirks fit looser through the leg from the jump at size 31 but the waist was more snug.

Speaking as an IH fanboy, literally nothing makes it better than Bravestar. Its just that IH in my opinion has a sexier design, especially the back pockets, and you are pretty much just paying for the brand name. What comes with that though is the reputation they earned for having immaculate quality control on all their items. Its like the equivalent of buying a Fender Custom Shop guitar as opposed to a regular production line Fender. Although they probably aren't worth an extra $3000 compared to a regular Fender, you are pretty much guaranteed an item that will not disappoint and that will hold its value over time. In the big picture, an extra $200 on a pair of jeans you will have for many years is not that much money. If you however prefer the aesthetics of the Bravestar, then thats your thing and all the power to you

youre paying a sizable % of the cost on import bullshit whenever you buy jeans made in japan in america. these fees only applied to completed jeans not denim fabric, thus companies like brave star and n&f import the denim and assemble the jeans here. there's no possible way for japanese brands to compete on price because of that, as anon said the jap brands aren't meant to be priced as high as we pay for them.
for a lot of guys they get enough wear out of their jeans, or the rest of their wardrobe costs enough that its not really a value proposition and you'd rather have the best in the world regardless of the fact you're overpaying like shit on brands like ih momotaro etc -- giga high end denim really isn't that expensive in the big picture when it comes to fashion.

>>17932219
Yeah, they’re high quality and they will last you a while depending on what your lifestyle is. If you’re doing manual labor or biking with them every day, you’ll get some faster wear and tear in the crotch area, but generally they have more structural features than the majority of even higher end denim (thick poly thread stitching, belt loops stitched under the waist band). You’ll get a number of sour grapes on here that will try and convince you that it’s not worth what they charge, but iron heart has a perfected design and aesthetic, so realistically you’ll love wearing them forever and you really won’t have to care much about purchasing any other jeans unless you want some variation in color or amount of slub texture. $350-400 for jeans that will last you many years is not a lot of money, and if you want to keep them forever to maximize the value of purchase, you can always send them into Self Edge to get a darning machine repair on any rips or tears for like $40

>>17932798
In case you didn't know, term raw denim technically refers to denim that has not been washed. Most people, including myself, prefer to buy 'one wash' denim, that has been washed once by the manufacturer to soften and shrink them. Any denim that's one wash or raw will fade the way you see in those pictures online.

Anyway, they look to be raw (aka rigid) so unwashed.

>> No.17932841

>>17932798
no but they're close to it. they're 2 shades lighter than most raws (most people describe them as having a "blueberry" color) and sanforized.
they'll fade the same way, just with lower contrast. think of them like a 1 or 2 wash denim, but with some starch added back to them so they're still crispy, maybe half as starchy as an average pair of raws.

anyway, your penis has smegma (aka dirty) so it's unwashed.

europe market might be a different case but:
people buy unreturnable raw denim and get the wrong size all the time. resale value is very low on raw denim even if unworn unless it sells out. all the usual places people sell second hand clothes online are full of steeply discounted raws that got tried on once or not worn enough to have fades on them yet for $50-100. if they have some other guy's creases in them but no fades yet you can just iron them out.

Generally no
Larger sizes will have a slightly longer front rise then smaller sizes, but those variations are by waist size and not inseam length. Every pair with the same waist size is going to be cut from the same pattern

>> No.17935641

>>17935600
no, i know for a fact with levi's the only thing that changes with the inseam length is how long the leg is cut. as anon said all the measurements are tied to the waist size. mass produced jeans are made by taking a giant stack of denim, laser cutting like 10 to around 100 pairs of say, size 30's all at once. the inseams just get cut to size off of those blanks before they get sewn up. being cut in giant stacks like that are also why you can buy 2 pairs of levis with the exact same tag size and have them measure wildly differently, up to 2 tag sizes of swing.

the other day i was looking at ways guys in SE asia fake and/or accelerate their fades when i stumbled on one that i'm actually going to start doing for completely different reasons:
some of these motherfuckers will take a pair of jeans in a slimmer cut they're trying to fade for a contest or something, and wear them underneath a baggier pair of jeans. it doesn't have detrimental effects on the fades of the inside pair or make them look weird, they do it so they don't spill shit on them and to fade 2 at once.
anyways i tried on a thinner pair of sorta skinny jeans underneath the jeans i've been wearing this winter (wrangler 13mwz) and it did two things:
- you no longer get that weird sensation that feels like you have a sock stuck down your pants leg when you're wearing the baggy jeans + long johns combo and get hit in the leg by wind
- the drape on the outer pair is WAY better looking, like a night and day difference
- you can wear baggy jeans in strong winds or winds that are changing direction without them looking like shit
and its comfortable.
i'm doing this for now on.

>> No.17935946

>>17935873
- lets you wear baggier fits before it looks bad
- 15+15oz is more durable than 30oz because the yarns arent giant
- lets you wear very heavy weights without needing a screwdriver to button them
- nigger proof secret pockets
this is actually such a good idea for winter jeans...
might have to get a pair of stretch selvedge for an inside pair...

I seriously hope you’re joking. I’ve been wearing in my IH 25 oz jeans for almost a year now and I would never get above 21 oz ever again. There is absolutely no point. The absurdly heavy weight doesn’t actually give you any extra “durability”, it is only for forming extra distinct creases and fades. The 25 oz isn’t absurdly heavy, but it’s just heavy enough to where it doesn’t ever drape and to me that’s something that I wouldn’t ever want to give up. This is why I say 21 oz is that Goldilocks zone, it has that awesome heaviness to it, but it also softens up significantly

you posted a pic of Wrangler 936DEN's actually. here's what 13MWZ looks like.
13MWZ is basically a repro of the original wrangler cowboy cuts but with a zipper fly instead of a button fly. Other than that they're unchanged.
936DEN is cowboy cut with a slimmer leg.
Wranglers are *supposed to* fit tight in the leg if you want that southern cowboy look, so if you try on 13MWZ's and they fit baggy (pinch the fabric on the side of your thigh, if you can get more than a thumb width its too loose) then return em and try out 936DEN's sized up 1 in the waist. The fit's really similar but works better on a lot of guys.
That being said there's nothing wrong with wearing wranglers like anti-fit, I'm doing it right now >>17936725 if you want an antifit jean that doesn't make your ass flat 13MWZ is it.
Other fit options in rigid:
There's a boot cut and 2 relaxed cuts with different upper blocks. One of em isn't made anymore but should be easy to find deadstock on ebay without markup.
And there's also Rustler jeans, which are made by wrangler and the same denim weight but with right hand twill and simplified less cowboy-ish details ex: bar tacked pockets etc. The straight and boot cut come in rigid and raw black/black. They fit like a middle ground between 13MWZ and 936DEN with a slimmer upper block. VERY nice cut on some guys. Esp tall skinny lads.

>There is absolutely no point. The absurdly heavy weight doesn’t actually give you any extra “durability”, it is only for forming extra distinct creases and fades.
Totally correct! And I hate the myth that heavy denim is more durable. The bigger the yarns are the less abrasion resistant the denim becomes, and abrasion is usually what kills denim before anything else.
The most durable denim is probably between 12-15oz, hard to pinpoint exactly which end of that range. Which is why the arms race to make heavier denims in America ended when Levi's got to around 12oz and Wrangler around 15.
But heavier denim and thicker denim is more protective. Throw on some 12oz jeans and get down on your knees, then do the same in some 21oz's. Then consider if your life involves doing that all day. Same applies if you're shooting grinder sparks at your legs all day or something along those lines. I think real world 17-21oz is the goldilocks zone for tradies, give or take with climate and how stationary your job is.
I'm the kind of person where I don't fear damage to my jeans a) i went a little denim crazy a few years back and i have more unworn raws than i know what to do with and b) i like the look of repaired denim, people pay thousands of dollars for designer hand distressed sashiko jeans. i've been wearing jap selvedge for 20 years (50% tradie hard labor life 50% normie desk job life) and never had a pair get so damaged they can't be mended.
>Drape
Lighter denim drapes better when its new and starchy, but IMO heavier denims drape the best when they've been worn a few years, washed a few times, and re-stretched to your body.
The best thing you can do for your drape regardless of denim weight is not washing your jeans though. Jeans take about 30 wears after washing to drape right.

you can get sick fades washing weekly especially if they're seeing hard wear. over time that vintage style fade has become really desirable actually. you get a bunch of cool effects on the denim, particularly a lot more seam puckering and roping around the seams, that you'd otherwise never achieve when going for high contrast denimbro fades. if you look up vintage pairs of levis from the first half of the last century the end result's like that.
>any point
jeans are gonna last longer if they haven't been sandblasted and dremeled up to look worn in before you buy them. you don't have to go with raws though. stone wash is just as viable if you want to trade off some longevity for that soft immediately broken in feel.
>expensive selvedge shit
depends on your level of wabi-sabi bro. i love the look of a weft stained over years of grime that will never quite washed out. repairs look cool. i saw a pair of raws on sufu the other day where a guy spilled battery acid down his leg accidentally on a brand new pair of raws, rotted half the leg away, and they looked sick after a major patching job and a few years wear.

tts on the rustlers.
there's a whole bunch of usa workwear brands doing raws sub $100. half of them call the finish raw half of them call it rigid when searching. farming stores tractor supply etc carries them.
wrangler rustler roundhouse carhartt dickies prison blues stan ray etc theres a lot more look around. you can find 5 pocket jeans patterns and painter/carpenter pants readily. and double knees. suspender button + double knee combo can be tricky to find these days without going over $100. most will be like $50-85ish.
quality wise, its really all the same other than construction features. stuff like triple needle, more complex patterns like carpenter pants, shit like that.
non denim: carhartt, tough duck, etc duck pants are sweet too. they don't fade and age the same way, or nearly as fast, but they do and its cool. more flexible and breathable too. walmart carries tough duck & their hi-vis shit is nice if you ever need not shitty hi-vis gear.

oh one big thing that helps making shit last longer, and might let you get more wears per wash (depending if you're spilling shit on them, or just sweating)
rotate a few pairs, and if possible with your living situation hang them when not wearing so they can air out. even better if you can outside in the sun when weather allows.
it really kills smellz especially when/if they can get uv. and giving the sweat a chance to dry out really slows down crotch/knee blow outs.
when i'm min/maxing cheap on the job i usually just swap between a pair of black/indigos of the $12 rustlers and a pair or two of double knee chinos depending on what the day calls for.
& also those tan color canvas carhartt type jackets (i think other brands are a better value these days) patina super well on the job if you put the time in & are just really well suited jackets for construction. sorta off topic but i big recommend if you don't have one. you can get em waxed too if you work outside in the rain.

Are 501 stf worth it? Seems like everyone has their own method to shrink. When to shrink (immediately vs after a month of wear). How much they shrink - some say 4 inches in length some say 1.5 inches….

Seems like the cuts pretty nice I guess they’re not too bougie which appeals to me….

>> No.17940135

>>17940063
full price? nah. on sale like they are all the time? for sure. you can try on non stfs to see if you like the cut.
there's a bunch of weird advice for them because its such a common babby's first unsanforized denim AND on top of that they're vanity sized so the tag size isn't really what they measure. they're just any old unsanf denim.

ok let me tl;dr you on unsanf:
they'll shrink 6-10% in all directions, some dimensions will stretch back some won't based on what parts of the jeans get tension on them.
waist: tts or +1. it'll stretch back anything it shrinks with wears. if you plan to wash a lot or just want a looser fit in the thigh +1 it. if you're a larger waist size you might need to +2.
501stfs are vanity sized in the waist so if you're shopping online you might need to adjust slightly to get a perfect fit, i'm not up to date on how much they're vanity sized.
length: +2-3 inches depending on if you have a short or long inseam
(remember all this is based on % do the math if you're not sure)
shrink them immediately so the creases set in the right places. soaked denim fades just as good as fully raw denim. you want them to shrink and the threads to tighten right away fades will be better.
shortcut that only really works on 501s bc so readily available: try on non stf 501s of the same model, not premium ones etc, find the fit you want and +8% all the measurements.

>> No.17940140

you can also wiggle those suggestions a bit depending on how you want it to fit, 501 looks good anywhere from fitting close in the thigh to slightly sized up as a baggier workwear fit. it has enough taper to not look sloppy.

don't know what to do, they fit right on the waist but I feel like it looks too wide/big on me. Should I try the slim version? (936)

>shortcut that only really works on 501s bc so readily available: try on non stf 501s of the same model, not premium ones etc, find the fit you want and +8% all the measurements.
Hard disagree. The fit changes so much from year to year and model to model to the point where some 501s fit like skinny jeans, others are loose, and none have a high front or back rise. STFs are a lot more consistent and should be sized by thigh.
>sticc legs? TTS
>first year lifter with 'big' legs? Up 1
>several years of squatting/cycling/soccer under your belt? Up 2 and wear a belt

true you're right its shit advice.

>>17940568
either go down a waist size on 13mwz or try 936 at this waist size.
either will probably look good on you. pinch the side of your thigh and show how much excess fabric there is if you want my opinion on which one i'd personally do.

What do you mean the 501 fit varies. Are you talking the non stf? But the stf never changes?

I have big thighs. Don’t lift anymore but used to squat 2 pl8 for reps. Now I’m confused. Should I just try on stf and find one that fits okay then go 2 sizes bigger? My normie jeans lately fit good in thigh and taper nice on the calves slightly even though they are “straight cut” but borderline tight in thighs. This denim world is even more convoluted than boots.

>Now I’m confused.
+0 in the waist +2 in length
if you're a bigger guy +1 in the waist +3 length
if you want a looser fit in the thighs +1 the waist from the above suggestions, you might need to belt. based on your post i might suggest that.
>What do you mean the 501 fit varies. Are you talking the non stf? But the stf never changes?
Levi's tweaks how the 501 fits every few years, that's why people pay so much for vintage ones.
>even though they are “straight cut”
501 is a "straight cut" like that too.
>This denim world is even more convoluted than boots.
you picked an unsanforized denim that uses vanity sizing as your first rodeo, this is basically as complicated as it gets.

pros: comfy as shit

myths: some people say they don't fade as good, that's a load of shit.

More confirmation. Seems the same as boots. More comfort off the bad always seems to be bad. Sacrsficing immediate comfort for longevity isn’t what I’m into. I don’t mind breaking in boots in fact I’ve come to enjoy it. Imagine it would be the same with denim?

>>17941635
I’m seeing exclusively “slim” on their website. Not sure if this is the same as skinny? I’m the pretty muscular thigh anon from earlier so I’m going to guess this might not be a good fit for me? Wasn’t sure about skinny vs slim. I’ll check out gap either way. Thanks.

"slim" is technically supposed to mean a skinny leg with no taper...
but in uniqlo marketing terms the ones they call "slim-fit" are skinny tapered jeans and the ones they call "slim straight" are a true straight cut jean with no taper. i have a pair and i'm not sure why they call them slim at all, they're a normal ass straight cut.
and yeah if you're muscular avoid skinny jeans that aren't relaxed thigh athletic cut. you can get tapered ankle skinny jeans for your build but they're cut way different. examples: https://www.blueowl.us/collections/all-products/denim-athletic
