lol bro, all i can say is you have to read more.

facepalm betul la... haha

anyway just to answer your query, you dont hv to rub lol.. just wear your jeans, wear wear wear and more wear.. thats all about it.. when you're walking, there's friction almost everywhere.. so thats why the front pocket part also will fade.

@stinkyfar, so fast buying again?

anyway, if you're even asking the question whether heavier denim will be uncomfortable, then i guess there's your answer.

like you said, if you walk a lot, then heavier denim will be uncomfortable when new for sure. but if you stay tts or even size one up, then you will be fine .

i have the n&f E2 and its awesome but sometimes too stiff and get in the way of several things.

pls pls pls be more specific.

which model which cut???

i dont get it. even if its wg or sg, your true size is 33-34, and sizing down to 32 is perfectly fine. except you have big thighs.

i agree with apsidewatch .

at least some pics every few pages in ok la.. everyday buy buy buy , see also bored la. lol
and some more say not enough time to wear, but got 6 pairs. damn contradicting lol..

@g3n0c|d3 ,
why the hate on nudie? aside from more and more ppl buying them, it is actually a very good pair of raw denim. made in italy with many cutting and fabric to choose from. in fact, no hate on the dior, i think my 9months nudie fades nicer than the dior above(no offence) cause i have seen many many diors that have fades and progress better than the above.

lol ADD honeycombs.. bro you cant add or put or minus anything into jeans man.
its just the way how one walks or what one do in the jeans. in my defence, that picture make the honeycombs less intense. mind you that's hardly a 12oz fabrics which always makes honeycombs less intense and less contrast, overally gives the denim a very soft look.
but in reality, the honeycombs on my nudie is quite intense compared to when new. it has turned from indigo to almost sea green , which is prett neat imo.

that unbranded is the best unbranded anyone has seen hands down.

sizing for apc is tricky. just ask atta, i think he knows lol.
best to read up more on apc so that you know your size. if you're tiny, from waist to thigh down, then sizing down 3 for PS or NC is fine. in my experience, the nc and ps are skinny cut and really looks good for some people who even stay tts.
