@atta, u could've received a returned pair that was stretched out. Try backing it or give a hot soak, might just shrink it down abit.

Soaking is to loosen up the fibres

@goldlion

Why are you letting it go? It looks awesome to me. If I were working in an office everyday (which I think I will in a few months time..) it would certainly be hard to put some decent wear into my jeans, but who cares wink.gif if it fits real comfy and it has moulded to your body, should be perfectly satisfied with it

@h11g

Too many brands to choose from even online tongue.gif But there are really many choices to choose for in Thailand. I daresay.. after Japan and the US, Thailand comes in pretty close as the place to source raw or/and selvedge denim. They have lots of local denim manufacturers too. I mean REAL enthusiasts who stick to the core - japanese selvedge denim from the mills, proper copper rivets and pretty good construction for a good fit.

well i do love the fit now. have gotten a few compliments on it already. the cut is a nice slim straight. but i think i'm getting old and patience wearing thin hahah. and i'm still looking for a dream job that allows me to wear jeans to work biggrin.gif All the best on your up coming new job bro rclxms.gif

Ya, you can try Buntil, Bongkar in BB or maybe Lan.
I know a shop in Klang called Bro bundle , the guys there recognised the GTB stripes on my momo the moment i step into the shop.  Told me they sold a Samurai for rm1500 to someone earlier  blink.gif 

there is no return policy in BiG ?
*
whoa what bundles shops are these? maybe i can offload my samurais and full counts with them.

just came back from BKK and had the chance to visit Pronto Denim there. quite a decent collection they have: Nudies, Momos, Ksubis, Cheap Mondays and the best was their Pronto X The Flat Head collab.

Amazingly they're selling the Momotaros for a rather affordable price. Even the Nudies cost more haha.

went to the one in Central Plaza mall at Phah Ram 9 district. denim collection there seems pretty decent to me but i'm not how is it compared to the one in Central World cuz I didn't go there. plenty of nudies there if u're into that, including the jackets, wallets and accessories. there were some redmoon wallets there too.

@apesidewatch: those are sick fades for 3 months bro!
