QUOTE(silencer @ May 11 2011, 04:46 PM) even after several of denim jeans...i still wonder what is considered the perfect fit? should be really tight.....or a bit loose???? If you have a nice pair of legs then you can rock from skinny to slim. If not, you should choose a fit that hides the flaws. Like if you have big thighs then don't choose a pair that is too tapered at the bottom. It will make you look like a fat chick.

This is my Imperial Duke after it's first hot wash. I forgot that i put it to a 90 degrees wash that it damaged the leather tag :-( Now the denim is tag-less. So i had to remove it. It shrink down back to its original size, somewhat. But the fading and contrast turns out good. Am loving it! In the picture it looks a bit weird due to lighting but it in person the contrast between the fade and the deep indigo hue is awesome! Enjoy!

One really only looks good in tight jeans if one has good legs. And by good legs, I mean you need to have at least SOME hamstring and as much gluteus maximus as possible. And I really mean gluteus maximus, not the fat that lies on top of it. The fat just makes the butt look saggy. A muscular butt sits high.
I see so many boys in tight/skinny jeans with sticks for thighs, CONCAVE hamstrings and flat butts. Awful. Especially the concave hamstring. It's like wearing a tight Tshirt when you have no chest.
And what's this laundering cotton at 90 degrees Celcius? That's murder for the fabric.
