Any thoughts on these jeans? I've seen them in more and more places and am not quite sure what to make of them. Any experience?

personally i'm impressed by them. I tried on the indigo warp/weft jeans and really wanted to buy it, but reason slapped me in the face and said i had too many jeans. cut was good, denim seemed nice. made in usa.

What's your opinion of the product? Something you'd stock? When I've seen it, it sort of looks like APC meets Rag & Bone, but I'm not quite sure how they'll look after a few months wearing (not talking fades, more how they hold up).

I like the product. I like his washes. I have never tried on a pair. the price point is high and I think I have it covered already bit I am willing to look at it again.

We like it too. The cuts are good, great denim (Japanese selvedge) heavier weights (11 1/2 - 13 1/2 oz denim) made in the USA. The previous post nailed it...Simon Miller is a good cross between APC and Rag&Bone. Good Guys Jeans. We're going to dabble in some.

Are those the same as the Midnight wash jeans on the Revolve site? What did they look like in person? I can't decide if they'd look like really dark jeans, or too much like Dickies/other work pants (not what I'm going for)?

I have 2pr of SM's and the fit/denim is amazing. The washed/whiskered ones are too over the top for me but the plain/faded ones are great.///

I'm a fan of Simon Miller faded jeans too. Happen to own 3 pairs - 2 faded, 1 raw. Best thing about them is that they're comfy. The raw pair doesn't seem like it'll fade well though due to how soft the denim is.

Mauro or any of you experienced SF members know how to get in touch with these folks? I sent them two emails to the address on their website and haven't received a response. I bought a pair of their jeans that ended up being defective (the button holes on the crotch flap frayed through after one month of wear). I've never had that happen, even when I was wearing GAP jeans in high school). Any suggestions?

Where did you buy them? Original retailer may be able to help.

Thanks for the tip, but I contacted their "sales" person and received a prompt response. Finally after all these months! Here's the exchange: Hi M-- I know you're in charge of USA sales, but perhaps you can forward this email to the right people... My last two attempts (in the span of 6 months) to contact you all via "info@simonmillerjeans.com" have been unanswered. [Lengthy explanation of the state of jeans] Can you help? I can send photos if needed. I really think you all make some of the best denim jeans out there and I love these to death, but the fraying is really killing me. Please advise. If you can't do anything about this, please just respond so I know someone at least answered my email. Kind Regards, Me ---------- Response: Send photos so I can see what's up. ------ I send her photos of the shit repair job as well as evidence of new fraying on the button-hole flap. ----- Response from M: the repair doesn't look very good. i suggest contacting denim doctors here in LA. the could fix your jeans for sure. i would offer you a new pair but unfortunately we haven't produced a harlem in a long time. ----------- Me: That's very generous of you to offer a new pair. Would you be able to substitute something comparable in exchange for these? ---------- Response from M: We don't make black denim right now and now that I think about it your jeans will be cooler once they have been repaired properly. Good luck [Me]. ------------ Wow, was that dismissive and condescending or what? I'm not some 20-year old kid trying to look "cool". It's all about the quality of the craftsmanship. I could tell she must be writing from her phone, too. I can appreciate her efficiency in responding, but that is some crap customer service, and rather unprofessional, too. I'm not dropping any more money into repairing these jeans and I'll never buy another pair of Simon Miller jeans (even though I will say that quality of the denim is fantastic). I'm going to stay with my black R&Bs and PRPS Ramblers. No construction issues there.
