anyone can tell is iths original or fake nudie jeans?

but
1. the backstitching looks different from how it looks like normally, this one a bit messy and have a wider joining in the six strings
2. the rivet feels plasticky in the inside part
3. the pocket printing is faded a bit
4. the tag written with the serial code does not contain the material information

is it considered authentic? because it looks different from another
and does nudie jeans have a different backstitching from season to season?
thanks

but i have seen also a very well built fake before
95% similar to the authentic but it is a fake

i dont really concer much but the backstitching is awful
mustn't the designer care about this signature backstitching?
it is a trademarked stitching that should look the same in every jeans, considering this is a designer's jeans
i should have just bought an apc instead of this

thanks before,
i asked the same question in kaskus (im indonesian) and they point out that the nudie is a fake because of the different backstitching
another thing is the misprint in the back pocket side
it is BEAD MORE, instead of READ MORE

sorry, i can't say anything about where i get this nudies, i dont want to ruin someone's sales before i have a valid proof about authenticity
but it is cheaper than the retail nudie, around USD100, i dont know about the seller's source but he/she prove that his/her product is legit

heres the comparison pic between my jeans and the original one from the internet

btw lets say it is a new batch,
a new batch will include an organic, recycled paper tag, as well as the new fall/winter 2011 booklet, you can refer to the nudie website for the booklet design
i bought a pair of tight long john also two months ago with the new booklet and new recycled paper tag, and i could say that the back stitching still look the same as how it look at your nudies
but this one was bought like one month ago, but why is it different then?
if it is a new batch, then it should also include old design booklet and old glossy tag

btw i asked for help from the nudie customer service also,
they also found out that something seems not right because of the misprint in the backpocket print and cannot tell the authenticity
the customer service then conclude that it is a counterfeit product because it is way too cheap, after i tell them i bought it for USD100 something

or maybe you can turn your pair of raw jeans to a raw denim wallet like this
http://www.instructables.com/id/Jeans-Cuff-Wallet/

and buy yourself a new jeans instead

the jeans look blue now rather than deep indigo
bought a new pair la bro

it will break in beautifully if you really "wear" it "hard", try a year bro if smelly, put in the freezer or hang it a day under the sunlight
unlike the fast fading nudie, thr process in organic is slow, but the results is great because of the very deep blue color indigo in the organic cotton

yes, try the freezer, it really helps killing the germ, and expose it in direct sunlight afterwards,
wearing it hard means you wear it in your everyday life, not to care too much for the jeans because it is pricier than normal jeans,
if you wear it daily, just by sitting in the office all day, it won't help, but youll have nice fading on the butt part
try biking, basketball, or other extreme activities if you have that hobby,
an extra thick wallet at the backpocket will make a nice fading imo, i have one raw jeans with a nice crotch and fading in the backpocket, really love it

if you think you already had enough breaking the jeans, try sandwashing it in the beach, it will results in a nice contrast
here's a guide to it http://www.rawrdenim.com/2011/08/raw-denim...finitive-guide/

yup, its not like it dont kill them at all, in low temperature, it cause bacteria to react more slowly and regenerates slower causing impaired growth, this is good enough to cause some kind of bacteria less harmful and death to some kind of bacteria also, although not all, but if you have a really freezing temperature in your freezer, it will cause lysis and death of the bacteria,

fyi, organic cotton has also lower chance of bacteria growth compared to normal cotton in other jeans,
in a research by one denim company to one pair of organic nudie jeans worn for TWO YEARS, bacteria growth is just NORMAL

it all depends on the look you want to achieve and how it comforts you,
btw the more you size down, the more it will stretch ==> the more the jeans will be prone to tear

here's one superb denim to drool you guys
