QUOTE(twho @ Nov 4 2011, 10:41 PM) Hi guys, I'm new to this. Been reading this thread for awhile but i'm still confuse. I think i kinda got the selvedge part but.. How do we know the jeans is Raw? Does Levi's or Topman have Raw jeans? I read about Levis 501 shrink to fit. What's the diff? is it Raw selvedge as well? I'm assuming all the normal 501,512 levis jeans are pre -washed. unsanforized and sanforized?? Appreciate it if someone could help me understand more. hehe Thanks raw denim are unwashed untreated denim...but the treated ones are the sanforized ones but it is still unwahsed. Raw denim are characterized by its stiffness when u touch/hold it when u wanna try it out at shops etc.

QUOTE(monkeyzai @ Nov 7 2011, 04:28 PM) Guys, any one fancy for Naked & Famous? Musa Bangsar having sales now! Many 50-60% less! I got the weird guy natural organic indigo denim for just less then 300! Somemore there remain 2 pairs limited edition 24oz heavy weight for real good price! Wish I'm not that fat and able to grap this... Hurry up! Wouldn't know when they end the sale. I heard the sale personal said they might bring in samurai in future but depend on request and demand from existing customer.. Dunno how true is it.. Sweet, heading there EDIT: Anyone know what else is on sale? Hardly any guy's stuff there though, come to think of it This post has been edited by linkinwayne: Nov 8 2011, 09:45 PM

darn, the back pocket of apc new cure homme is so small my wallet cant even fit into it. is this normal? anyone here who has a pair of new cure: care to verify??
Added on November 12, 2011, 1:15 amok, i think i am screwed this round. i just tried on my new cure, size 27. no hassle of putting it on. button all the way up, still have about 1/2" around my waist. this is totally different from the size 26 whereby i would need to struggle a little to put on it and only managed to button all the way up after 3rd wearing. new cure is such a beetch!! the difference is toooo huge!!!!

@ Atta, Lol? Was your previous APC in a 26 New Cures as well? NS PS and NC are quite, quite different. 1/2 inch extra is a lot man =/
@ Loej,
Don't worry about minor details. Just wear em rough. Even if you've somehow managed to dip it into the mud, but its only 1 week old, you can choose to not wash it or wash it. The jeans needs to be like your 2nd skin yo. You wear them out and after 5 years, you'll be able to reflect on it and say
This is the patch where i fell down on my motorcycle in the ditch in my kampung. This is where that noob fag burnt my jeans pockethole with his cigarette butt - sohai wanna smoke dono how to smoke properly &*@#$! This is weird whitish patch where all the indigo came out from all that vodka this chick spilt onto my crotch when she leaned over- maaaan that was one hell of a night.

@atta, u could've received a returned pair that was stretched out. Try backing it or give a hot soak, might just shrink it down abit.
