Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)? - Page 1627

I do have a couple pairs of chinos in different colours. These don't seem like chinos though. Very thin material, and the fit is different (better) than I have on my chinos. These are a bit slimmer, and with a slightly cropped look. Picture is bad. Here's the 'official' picture.

Seems like the Marni collection wasn't too popular in Finland, there was a bunch of stuff at the store, everything -50%. Pretty sure some items had multiple pieces of each size left. So these pants are 20€. Worth it?

those look nice, like the taper. id say you are wearing them right, just lose the flannel and you're good to go!!

APC is now made in Macau...quality has gone down...so I am not sure if Dior Homme is comparable to APC...

3Sixteen denim is Japanese-made, jeans are made in the USA.

 

I want to get the same jeans as the dude that gets clocked with the bag at 0:06...

DON'T GET APC. Over priced piece of shit.

 

If you want something slubby with great fading get the PBJ 013. If you want something very smooth and dressy go for the baldwin henley.

Not overpriced, but high priced. You can get almost 3 pairs of APC with that money (not sure about now but a couple years ago.

I would pay $250 for a pair of PbJs because the price fits the quality. I would not pay $200 for a pair of APCs made in macau (china) of the lowest quality selvedge denim.

APCs are regularly available for ~$125 from TBS and it a good pair of starter denim. Sure quality is not that good but the fit is really good for a lot of people compared to the Japanese repros

I used to wear a lot of superdenim jeans but I've since un-converted back to wearing APCs and Dior. I've realized that "quality" and the other traits that a lot of Japanese denim has doesn't mean shit unless you like to nerd out about that stuff. All about the fit/cut for me...

Besides lacking in quality I have no clue what you're talking about in terms of fit apc's are way too small in the thigh (for me) and unless I size down 4 the waist always ends up stretching out waaaaaay too much

favorite pair of jeans right now pbj 13 (which do the ps fit better than the ps) and the rogue territory rk-isc

Mall brands actually make plenty of shoes in that styling these days and the quality is probably the same.

MMM construction inferior? How so (just wondering)? I have these and they are quite nice.

MMM quality is really exaggerated. I mean, it isn't JL, but it isn't RO dunks falling apart quality either lol I think it's the whole backlash to the brand haha
