    Somehow this thread escaped me all this time. E-Pill - I never realized we were so gay for the same things!

    I've got a pair of Nudie Slim Jim Dry Japan and love them. Got them cheap from my-wardrobe.com - $90 plus shipping from the UK last year. Tried them on in Chicago where they were $215. Fuck that!

    Had mine over a year and they just go in the freezer from time to time. I'd love to finally wash them to shrink them some, but I love how dark they still are and they're my only pair like that.

    Want to give Levis a try though. A bit cheaper than Nudie and some good slimmer fits.

    • finally someone who realizes it is not the price you pay but to keep the quality..e-pill
    • the denim can be any price.. but the treatment you do will determine the finish..e-pill
    • the price of cotton in the last few months have skyrocketed.. so expect even higher prices..e-pill

    • @mg33- if you are going to get Levi's i recommend you find a shop that sells the japan madee-pill
    • i used to work for Levi's for 5 years, and the Japan office is totally separate and better..e-pill
    • their denim quality outshines all of the american brands without a thought..e-pill
    • in the end it is up to you.. i suggest you try them on and figure out your medium..e-pill
    • their prices can go for $99-thousands of dollars..e-pill
    • in the end it is how you take care of your garments.. there is a ton of ignorance here..e-pill
    • and i love that "creatives" in design can still be ignorant..e-pill
    • im happy we re both gay for the same thing.. yay!!e-pill
    • also try to find a brand that fits you, not something that is tailored to the masses..e-pill
    • it might be levi's or it might be something you never heard of as there is endless vendors..e-pill
    • denim is made to last.. indigo denim is made to last longer.. take care of it right and its dopee-pill
    • it can have all the whiskers and breakdown that is you and you alone ..not some knock off.e-pill
