hi, slightly OT, may i ask where can i get a pair of raw denim here in malaysia? possibly to match it with a high top converse. thanks in advance
edit: probably rm100-300
*
i think there's a lot of raw denim now these days.... from topman to levis to cheap monday... wow.. loads of choices... but i reckon u to go to MUSA at Bangsar (jalan Telawi 4) and get urself a pair of cheap monday selvedge. after discount its around rm178++

other raw denim i saw here in KL:
Quiksilver
Topman
Zara
Guess
superdry - at Tangs. should check it out

Uniqlo
Levi's
Tarik Jeans
cheap monday
Naked & Famous


*the bolded ones are the mainstream brand and the quality is so-so only

**the unbolded ones are what i consider a good quality denim eventhou nowdays levi's are not that good anymore... (unless u have the money to buy the levi's selvedge (which is raw also).

***the green color is only available on selected store. one of i know is at REALM at opposite of Times Square Hotel. Its a local brand using premium japanese denim. my brother bought them and they look freaking fantastic.

****the red color ones are available (that i know of) at MUSA Bangsar. Check those one out. if ure in a budget i suggest u look for cheap mondays because the denim are quite good and as for its name... its quite cheap for a raw/selvedge denim.

but overall u need to search around here and there... this is based on what ive seen and experience only... hope this help.

tarik jeans are raw jeans, my lil brother has it and its a fine quality raw denim and it cost around rm169 for the raw denim and rm269 (i hope i got the price right) for the japanese premium raw denim.

any commend on the quality of unbranded vs tarik?
*
tarik jeans

-raw denim (the best is premium 14 oz japanese raw denim)
-the construction and the denim for the tarik jeans is better than uniqlo (based on my personal opinion. its up to u to decide)
-got hidden rivet at the back pocket (i dont know but i think its cool thou. its the same as my evisu)
-got 2 design, slim fit and skinny fit... and trust me the skinny fit is REALLY skinny! i even have hard time with the slim fit at all and i have a big thigh. not really suitable. however my lil brother is thinner than me and fits him nicely (i'll try post some pics later)
-for RM170 raw denim (either skinny or slim fit) its cheap enough and value for money


unbranded brand

-what i know is its from Naked & Famous sister company....
-Made from 100% cotton sanforized 14.5oz Japanese rope dyed indigo selvedge raw denim. Featuring a button fly, hidden rivets, chain stitched hem and leather patch.
-made in Macau (not in canada like N&F)
-simple design and have 4 design
-USD 78 on online store. not sure how much here in Malaysia....

i can only give u some info about this 2 denim. I only have experience with tarik jeans, but not unbranded brand but i do have N&F and the quality is top notch. but then again the price would be the factor.

take this fact with a pinch of salt (well maybe alot) and choose ur denim wisely.... thumbup.gif

lol.. i tot ure selvedge guy? rough ur denim 1st arrr.... last i saw its like brand new lol!

QUOTE(Xp3rT @ Dec 29 2011, 12:26 AM)
yep from musa.
Sure all N&F are selvedge?on their website some named with selvedge and some dont hv.Example deep indigo selvage,Nep selvage OR black power stretch,grey stretch,slub stretch.a little make me confuse.that is my pic n it doesnt has the selvedge thingy.

I think it really too long to stack.or maybe I not used to see people stack up their jeans nowaday.I still need you guy opinions.thanksss notworthy.gif
*
skinny guy all no slevedge line but i think it is selvedge. either that or its japanese raw denim. which for me still win2 situation lol...
been to musa last saturday also... but N&F all limited. i did ask my brother to take the N&F 24oz since its his size... but lastly he bought Cheap Monday Selvedge

yeah,quite agree with you guys.a friendly match also required at least a year to see the result on our jeans.how about we make our own lowyat.net (or whatever-you-want-to-name-it) denim contest?a proper one.set a date & rules like what indigoroots did ( http://www.indigoroots.com/index.php?topic=392.0 )

so, at the end of the contest,we also can create an event like wall of fades indonesia.but,i believe to make this kind of event takes a lot of efforts from all of us
*
im looking forward to it..., as long as u guys can state the rules and regulation neatly and clearly i wouldnt mind trying. Got a couple of denim i havent wear yet. should be a motivation for me to start wearing those jeans.... brows.gif


and i just back from seksyen 13 shah alam. yeap the over there selling Evisu, Samurai (17oz, 24oz) and one Momotaro going to battle 15oz and couple of Levis Vintage..... but the price... awww man.... shocking.gif

well depending on what type of cutting u like but i gotta say its a bit baggy IMHO... u should size down another 1 or 2 size... after washing surely it'll stretch more than u wearing now...

what do u mean that it will stretch after wash? shouldn't it be shrinking? #noobquestion

sorry..it was supposed to be after wearing it for sometime it'll stretch and not after wash. well if u wash it using hot water then it should shrink... but cold water will not... (well in my experience its gonna shrink a bit... but not too much)

yes, i heard few bad things about unbranded...but that is the cheapest selvedge jeans available...
and that is what u get for what u pay... smile.gif
this guy who work with n&f had documented his unbranded journey for a year
without washhttp://www.withoutwash.com/
2 month and got your crotch blowout already?
the jeans might be tight as hell and u wear it everyday?
*
im speaking for N&F since i only have N&F jeans right now and yes... the crotch is a bit tight than usual (mine is weird guy, a bit low waist...) i can see that my jeans also will have crotch bust in this couple of months or so since its a bit tight over there....

but then again so does my nudies but stil going strong without crotch bust..... yet...
