@ballista,
Yes, the point is to have personalized fadings. Jeans you see on the shelves are usually mass-produced, stone-washed in sweatshops using low grade denim. And 71234678302465 other people probably have the same pair all over the world. Personalized fadings ensure that there is only one such pair, no two pairs will be identical even if both of them mimic each other's lifestyle. For me, I wear jeans a lot throughout my uni life. And I'm the kind of person who uses both back pockets, one for cell, one for wallet. Backpocket fadings on my jeans show the most signs of wear. Executives who have their butts caressed smooth leather chairs in their AMGs won't have that. That's one example, and I hope you get it That's right.. raw jeans tend to be stiff and the reason why they go for stiffer and heavier weights is because it is believed that they produce starker contrast between worn out areas and the virgin areas. |

Thanks for the compliments.
I can't tell how it fits compared to APCs, but considering both are French, and they both took cues from each other in terms of the designing of jeans, I would say they are roughly similar. APC has a few cuts tho, u might want to ask the other people here. The ass crease is wonderful. Makes me feel like a woman is groping my ass all the time. |
