wow, great fit man.. cheese denim is kinda worth it
i stroll through their facebook page just now, and they are going to produce some jeans from japanese selvage denim of the kaihara mill later,
thumbs up for them!!!

check this out guys,
the producing of the 32oz super heavyweight denim by naked and famious is finally finished,
only 140 pairs are available at tate+yoko
http://tateandyoko.com/1-jeans/191-naked-f...z-selvedge.html

they also released raspberry scented denim where the perfume is released when you scratch the jeans
the jeans are baked with the special micro perfume that can last up to 5 washes
sweet!!!!

depending on the look you want to achieve, hot soak=more indigo lost, but a more contrast look if you break it real hard
nudie is one of the easiest jeans to fade, i guess you might be wearing an organic pair, thats why it is hard to break.

go for flathead , they have one of the most beautiful arcuate ever..planning to buy one if i saved enough money

doesn't soaking do the opposite? it tighten up loose fibres, balancing jeans tension, shrinking it, increase jeans density, that's why after soak, the jeans turns out cripy and smaller, cmiiw

mind telling where is the online retailer site? thanks before

here's what i did to my brother's excess denim fabric
it makes a great mouse pad

from the creator of naked and famous


btw just checked the mydenim forum,
how come there is only three contestants available??
i've been trying to contact some denim experts for judges, but they will be very disappointed by the number of contestants
please upload your denim if you are going to participate in the contest asap
deadline of entry is 29/Feb/2012

yes, they do ship worldwide

amazing fade there, btw is that a deep indigo naked and famous?

is there any taylor that can alter the width and length of denim shirt?
just bought a 45rpm denim shirt and is way too baggy for my liking

or topup a bit for unbranded jeans which are in every way, a better jeans than topman

you should have rocked it harder, there's only little sign of usage there,
even only little wallet fade at the backpocket,
i have a horrible hole at my backpocket and front pocket where i usually put my phone
well, like nudie's concept "wear and tear", the jeans are easily torn down one, to create vintage and super used look

i think it was mistyped ==> washed once
the denim is rinsed, to prevent shrinkage
some denim can still fade although they are one-washed, like Tight long john denim stretch for example
the thing about uniqlo denim is that it is not meant to be fade,
they have this colour lock technology on the jeans to prevent fade although it was washed for many times
creases still can be made through rough activities though

my good friend is doing custom denim work in indonesia
he's now establishing his newest line of denim of selvedge from zimbabwean cotton 13 oz to 18 oz
18oz zimbabwean cotton red line selvedge for only IDR600k or around RM200
totally value for money, all chainstitch, custom leather patch and other detail you want is customizable



the denim is very dense and stiff, it can even stand on its own although only 18oz
the sad thing is that im not able to order one from him as im in malaysia

yup, they are laser burned, so you can add a very detailed drawing also

yes, like what they did on a japanese forum, creating their own custom denim line exclusive for the forumer
you can check that awesome jeans from rawrdenim, its a spoof of the 501 jeans made of japanese selvedge

the thing with the taylor is that their work is not that need before as their taking like 30+ order a week,
i have some flaw on the stitching on my last jeans with him
now he only take order of maximum 12 jeans per week, he claimed that the work is extremely fine and neat already
i hope that it is true

talking about doing order, im about to take order from one of the finest leather store in indonesia named LTHRKRFT,
the good are designed to be worn with denim
right now, im still in process for dealing price for international order, lets say like some sort of official international retail price
you guys can check some of their products at http://www.facebook.com/lthrkrft?flyingspaghettimonster=ts

good for you then, they are using imported buffalo and Crazy horse leather from india and pakistan for their boots
and they go so dang well with a pair of jeans

yup, voyej have a great branding and history behind.
but value for money wise, im going for lthrkrft, and also their wide variety of products and especially their boot

I need to check with their product quality first. I don't want it to be dissapointing after the custom.
Also, the zimbabwean cotton selvege is probably milled in india or thailand (my guess, but not china made to be sure), not japanese made like what is favored by many denim expert here.

yup, it is a great deal,
a little secret from a local jeans named tarik jeans here, it was firstly produced in indonesia using indonesian cotton.
that's what i heard from a local denim manufacturer. Now i think they are using several types of denim already.
customing an indonesian denim can go as low as RM60 only
there's even one store where you can come and choose the type of denim you want, measure and custom made it right away for RM40
that's what i heard from a friend there.
denim is not really expensive, what makes some denim expensive is the branding and craftmanship or personal touch of denim artist/ experts turning it into a pair of beautifully crafted jeans


happy shopping there

yup, just check with them, they said it was thai milled selvedge from zimbabwean cotton,
quality wise are just right below the pure blue japan.
dont expect me to bother myself ordering and checking jeans just to inform others about the quality
i'm just here for sharing information regarding my interest in denim world
