Any ideas when the F&F sale is rolling around this year?

The two pair of straight legs I've had (a wash and a rigid) both measured 2" larger than TTS - a 36 actually had a 38" waist, a 34 had a 36".

+1.

Where you getting them from and how much are those?

I guess I should have added that the pair I tried on were a 32x32 washed pair that had the levi-esque arcuate. BiG style they measured 16" across the waist.

Have a gift certificate and RL store credit so I may go to the store and actually buy some RRL jeans at full price If I want the raw, unwashed, solid indigo SF approved straight legs... what do I ask for and how much will they cost? Is that model even still available? My local RL store rarely gets RRL so the SA's there are usually useless. I already have a pair that I love but I bought them second hand several years ago and am not completely sure what the the current equivalent is called.

Plz don't.
RRL jeans are easily available on eBay for 60-70% off retail.

In 31-34 straight leg w/no wash? I've been looking for months and haven't found any.

Fair enough. (31 is a pretty rare size.)

Yeah I'd probably take a 32-34 or 30-34 as well but honestly I never see any RRL's on ebay that don't have some kind of wash. My 32-32's are a little big in the waist and about .5" short.

You likely know this already but (in case you don't) if you save a search on eBay you can get daily updates on new listings. For example "(rrl, double rl) (30, 31)" should cover your immediate needs. . .

I am still searching for RRL Slims Raw. The one Farinelli had was taken by someone else. Failed to pull the trigger.. . just waiting to see if any pops up.


Btw, nv buy RRL at those retail prices. Seriously.

What are the retail prices for RRL these days? On Farinelli's it looks like the "one-rinse" has a regular price of $225 and the "raw selvedge" is $220. Is that the same as what they sell for at the RL store? I don't think I've ever paid full retail for anything since I joined SF but if they really are $220 - $100 store credit doesn't seem insane for jeans I know will fit me perfectly. I only have one pair at the moment and have had them for 3 years now so it's one of those things I don't mind splurging on.

I lurked eBay for awhile, got a BNWT one wash pair of straights that I tailored with a taper and new hem for 20 dollars, got them shipped to me 70 US, so say 85 US all up. Man new-ish A.P.C's NS's go for more then that. I will probably lurk more later in the year and stock up on a few spare pair so that I've got a stack of basic good quality raw's for awhile. Best cost to quality ratio is hand's down RRL @ eBay prices.

What cracks me up are all of the people trying to sell RRL at retail on Ebay. I want a pair of those natural selvage straight leg jeans.
