Raw Denim So how many people on here wear raw denim? I got my first pair the other day (Nudie Thin Finn Organic Ecru Embo), and they're so comfortable. Can't wait for them to fade with time :D |
they're comfortable? raw denim is usually super UNcomfortable because it should be thick and rigid |
^ That pair has stretch in it. I find that stretch jeans are harder to fade though, but that's just my opinion. |
Ouch, Nudies will have a crotch rip very quickly. Got a pair of Naked and Famous, but I don't really like mine atm. Planning to get a pair of APCs soon or over the summer. |
Naked and famous are almost the same price as apc's now. |
APC's ftw. Mine feel really good right now. Remember to size down if you are gonna buy a pair. I got three pairs of Wings and Horns that are in rotation. Slowly breaking in now. |
don't wear them in the snow lol, mine got fucked up in the snow hahaha, snow was all blue |

I like the APC's. Very plain denim (no back pocket design) and I've seen results when they fade. Looks sick!!

I have a pair of ironhearts. |
how prevalent is the bleeding of the dye from raw jeans to items such as white shoes, chairs/couches that have a fabric covering, or even the bottom portion of your shirts ? |

BTW, where did u get urs? |
go to Duntil in gastown, friendly peiople and will be lots of help to you. APC seems to fade very nicely. Notorious MSG, i dont think you bought a pair of raw denim, i think u should bought an unwashed pair of denim. |
I have a pair of APC New Standards and Samurai S0500xx, but haven't gotten great results on them yet. but lately I think that the whole raw denim thing is still just copying something that happened in Japan ages ago (like colorful street fashion that you see some "trendy" people wear now). I might be wrong, and I still enjoy wearing my raw denim, knowing that I'm paying for more quality and originality than something like R&R. I just stick with a pair of Uniqlo S001 i got in HK, comfortable, great quality, and nice cutting :D. |

I might get a pair of Nudie Slim Jim Dry Black Coated from Dutil. I've been there before, friendly people indeed! |

I don't know if you know, but the Nudie dry black coated jeans don't really fade like regular raw jeans. They develop a leatherish appearance with wear instead. Anyway, if you're considering those, maybe take a look at the Naked & Famous Skinny Guy black power stretch jeans or Acne jeans in Cash. |

I got my APC's here: http://www.denimbaronline.com/store/...PARTMENT_ID=38 Dutil was in the mid-200's (and then plus tax) while on denimbar you can use a coupon code from superfuture or something... so I think total came to 140 canadian all inclusive. This was 2 years ago though. |
evisu! FTW my nudies havent ripped at the crotch yet but i can see it coming, but my patching skills will work wonders |
you don't usually get massive crotch rips unless u sag a lot. |

you can get ironhearts at www.selfedge.com |

or ironheart.co.uk (i got mine there before selfedge had ironhearts) or whatever, i recommend selfedge.com though. it was basically my first pair of raw denim. i wouldnt recommend it now unless u like being warmer/hotter, cuz they are quite thick and it's the summer. i wear them as winter/spring/fall jeans. summer i switch over to a thinner pair of jeans i have. |
ulic, post a picture of how ur iron hearts look like now, since u had them for so long, they must have some epic fades |
