    Love my tan belt I got about two years ago, you can't go wrong. Other "cheap" belts I have bought last maybe a year before they look horrible. This one is standing the test of time.

    High school = no style!

    Not in high school haven't been for quite a few years, but your sense of style is beyond your years. High school kids will dress in whatever clothing the mall sells and is "popular" at that moment. Self style and real identity haven't developed yet. Do what you gotta do and be your own person.

    Please help me with my fashion venture by taking my survey!

    Sorry, went through the whole survey but I am not comfortable releasing my household income. Won't let me complete the survey with out that answer. So I never finished it.

    CalTex, Why do you keep promoting the Momotaro contest in a N&F thread?

    Contact N&F and explain the issue, they will fix them right up for you. Had some stitching go myself and sent it off and they were more than happy to repair. Great CS service!

    Yes, all N&F jeans are raw (as far as I know) and no they don't all fade teh same. Since every pair really has different fabric, weights, colours, dyes as well as other factors.

    Naked & Famous camo weft, wore these for about 8 months total.

    The red cores will fade much more noticeably than the red weft. If you have a look at TATE and YOKE post on page 475 will give you some idea on how the red cores will fade out. The fading you see is from about 5 months of hard wear. Wearing them longer will increase the contrast of indigo/red.

    They start off looking like a normal pair of N&F indigo denim and as you beat the crap out of them they fade red. Just as any other raw denim fades to white, when the indigo on the outside of the yarns wears off it reveals the core colour. In the case of the red cores, it fades to red. Very...

    Wow, that is a life time of denim to wear. Why did you buy so many pairs?

    So I was surfing the net, checking out some raw denim feeds and I come upon this video of Brandon of Naked and Famous on a TV show in Vancouver. He is going through varrious style that N&F has coming out and low and behold as an example of a worn in/beat up pair he has my old pair of N&F jeans...

    Best brands for authentic outdoor gear?

    Personally Filson and Columbia make darn good products, both of which have life time warranties on their products. I had a Columbia hunting jacket that I used and used hard for around 14 years. Crawling through mud, sitting out in snow storms and rain, etc.. The jacket finally began to break...

    Can't say for sure, but I have a pair of the 26oz Black Warp / Black Weft Selvedge Denim that I bought at the begining of December. I've been wearing them almost every day. (Trading off every once and awhile with the N&F camo weft) and the jeans are starting to fade ever so slightly. However...
