I've hear also these seem to be the best fading of Naked & Famous' line.
Any heavyweight denim usually fades pretty decent also.


My 24oz - 2.5 years in doing okay and I work in an office so I can't wear them all the time.

Grabbed the left hand twill skinny guy in size 30. I'm normally about 31 or 31.5 waist, second day wearing it.

Ignore the messy back ground and shitty cam quality tongue.gif

imo, don't know if it was just me but I thought they were pretty indigo-ish in pictures but they turned out to be darker in person.
Sorta cool though, it's rawr blackish/silver in some lightings

The new super skinny guy fit looks weird. They have only changed the leg opening, but the rise and the knee has become wider than Skinny Guy. It would be much better if they only did the leg opening 0.8'' skinnier.

The inseam is also shorter. 3.5" shorter, it starts at 33.5" now. The rise is also .25 to .50 inches shorter. Thighs are weird, they start smaller then eventually get bigger when you compare the larger sizes.

 


One of the big questions is probably calf width. Sites never have that listed. I'm guessing the knee sizing increase is to allow for more mobility with the tighter fit? I'd love to see some measurements of the lower leg.

I'm looking at these:

http://www.neimanmarcus.com/p/Naked-and-Famous-Denim-WeirdGuy-Pomegranate-Selvedge-Jeans-Naked-and-Famous-Denim/prod148030211_cat26470736__/;jsessionid=A675172DE86104751D3AC4E99DA0B1DC?icid=&searchType=EndecaDrivenCat&rte=%252Fcategory.jsp%253FitemId%253Dcat26470736%2526pageSize%253D30%2526No%253D0%2526refinements%253D&eItemId=prod148030211&cmCat=product

How does the WierdGuy compare to APC New Standards? I love the fit of my APCs, so am wondering what's the closest Naked and Famous fit (Wierdguy or Slim Guy or Skinny Guy)?

Also, how do they run waist wise? I'm a 36. Should you size down to a 32/33 like in APCs?

Thanks a mil!

@ El Argentino:

LHT does not fade with more contrast. It may fade faster, but the wear pattern is more soft/fuzzy compared to RHT.

Rofl, you are taking every chance to hi-jack this topic and turn it into Momotaro goodness, aren't you?
They are doing fine actually. Not seen much wear yet, but that is a matter of time.

But seriously guys, NF deep indigos fade nicely. Not that I have much to compare them to but I like how mine have turned our after about nine months of wear. I'll post pics this week.

The gray WG's that I have didn't shrink after the hot soak I gave them. Guess that's just a pair down the drain.

I might pick up the snow boarding pair just to wear while I'm in New York next week. Unfortunately, they are slim guy cut.

The wear pattern is more soft/fuzzy?  So the fabric feels softer... what do fuzzy fades look like?  I don't know enough about denim to understand :/

Well. It's kinda hard to describe, but you'll know the difference when you see it.

This answer is worthless, I know.
