its true that momo, ih, samurai and other jap brands are top.
but imo, n&f makes really solid denim and interesting ones with funky fabrics and design, and hard to beat them at their price. i personally own 2 n&f. i think the one that gives the most value at the moment are the left hand twill, elephant 2, deep indigo, japan heritage and a few more. really awesome for their retail price.. and most of them can always be found in b&s on here and sufu.
and i just got my first momo a week ago, and its the 0702.
if anyone is able to kop in less than retail, do it now. its just amazing, really.
