Hi guys and denim guru

I've always appreciated raw and selvedge denim and have been a big fan of Naked and Famous and Cheap Mondays. I have just found out that my favourite shop in Bangsar known as MUSA has been closed down. So now, with raya lurking just around the corner, I dont know wny other place where i can get good denim. They had good denim and is priced very very competitively.

So in search for better denim, i went to BB and saw shops selling nudies. Cant remember which shops. but they look like imitations to my amateur eye. Anyhow, my quest for my favourite denim (N&F) continues. They are very comfortable, fits me nicely and is not as expensive as momotaro, evisu or samurai.

So i hope you guys can help me or tell me if there are any physical shops that sell Naked and Famous or affordable raw/selvedge denim. Found a shop selling unbranded in bangsar too. Not quite fond of its stitching. Kureng sikit.

I also found websites that also sell good denim there. But i have yet to have any experience with online stores. But i have my eyes on two at the moment which are tateandyoko.com and revolveclothing.com. Any experience with any of these webstores?

Your help is much appreciated. Thanks.

You can check this out, selling various jeans. I bought a pair of N& F from them. You can e-mail and ask question before you decide to purchase.

hey there ahmeduk88.
No, unfortunately there is no other physical shop that sells N&F in Malaysia as far as I'm aware.

Both of the online websites you listed can be trusted and is regularly used by denimheads, so have no doubts if you opt for online shopping from those websites. Other websites you might want to consider;
http://www.blueowl.us/scripts/psp/bin/show...ll?page=welcome
http://www.karmaloop.com/

Now, the only thing I want in return is pictures of your jeans!

How much do they charge for delivery to Malaysia, say if you purchase 1 pair of jeans. Both from karmaloop and blueowl.

haha!!! well, i guess they are. but i like how they're turning up. too bad there aint that much contrast. and Natural Indigo Revival's colour is quite bright compared to other colours. Hope i can get my hands on a overdyed specimen one day.

I read somewhere in this thread Bread & Butter is gonna bring Nudies to their stores in Malaysia.

but you can expect higher prices comparing it online.

For N&F, I'm not sure. Another shop that I've read that brings raw and/or selvedge jeans would be this one denim shop in Giant Shah Alam. I haven't been there personally, but others have.

Your best option: get it online, especially from the guys here in LYN.

sizing can be a hit or miss, so careful consideration before buying with timely sales offers is worthwhile. thumbup.gif

If u want to support local denim boutique and dont want it to be closed down like musa..buy at b&b regardless how much the cost of their jeans..

But if u dont give a damn about their business..try fitting at their store and buy online..WINRAR!!!!!
