@treflip, oh yea. How's your 21oz Naked and Famous doing?? What's your comment in 21oz Jeans? Heavy? Hard to walk or some sort?
Am thinking about 21oz sammies. Or perhaps 24oz sammies? They have it in Blue in Green.

They have it in Blue in Green. havent really been wearing them as it is on a very low rotation coz i'm working more on my current APC...but all i can say about the 21oz is it is very thick but not that stiff tho..coz n&f didnt startch the 21oz unlike APC which are highly starched...i may buy a starch spray soon for my 21oz but still considering...but 21oz is already hot to wear...and i bet 24 oz would boil u out!! hahaha Added on February 9, 2010, 8:05 pmQUOTE(jind86 @ Feb 9 2010, 07:24 PM) hmmm and what about new cure? argh this is so hard when i can't try them on and have to buy this way.. personally i like the petite standard more,,,plus it has the self-edge outseam visible unlike the new cure..the petite standard is nice coz its almost alike to the nudie grim timm This post has been edited by treflip: Feb 9 2010, 08:05 PM

RyanHo,
sugarcane is at the top of the denim chart compare to n&f and nudie. they are left far behind in term of quality.

QUOTE(OdynVovk @ Feb 10 2010, 01:24 AM) the sugarcane company specializes on making super tough dungarees workwear for many many years and as the name itself suggest, partly made out of sugarcane fibres. thats why its far more superior than fairly new brands such as nudie and n&f. Added on February 10, 2010, 1:29 amjind, the difference between the PS and NC is that the PS is very tight throughout and the NC is the tapered (knee down) version of NS. so in terms of tightness its PS>NC>NS. and yes, PS comes in black. unfortunately, a.p.cs in black are really rare. ow ok, and i thought NC was the tightest since in their website it was stated "very tight" and PS was simply "low rise and narrow leg".. http://www.apc.fr/homeS09.php?r=1&ew=1280&...site=EX&i=7&d=7and what about naked & famous' cutting, difference between skinny guy, weird guy and slim guy? they look pretty much the same in their website..

sent an email to dutil and the lovely Cayley replied me.. they are expecting more stock from N&F soon and will also be expecting NS raw black.. so i think i'll wait for that.. btw do you know what color is the selvedge for the NS raw black? the weird guy indigo is sure to have the red color selfedge or could it possibly be differnent? http://www.nakedandfamousdenim.com/?page_id=79

Do you guys think I'd be able to find any pairs of these in Macau(physical stores) or London(physical stores+websites)? If so, could you guys point me in the right direction please? I'm open to any brands as I'm relatively new, as much help would be greatly appreciated, thank you all!
