Their denim cuts are some of the best I've tried. They're even more outrageously overpriced in Australia than US - $350 AUD for a pair of mics in the Sydney Acne store. There are good deals online though. Zoovillage sells mic and max for 88Euros. http://europe.zoovillage.com/store/b...tby=0&Gender=0 That works out $200 AUD less than Sydney prices at current exchange rates. WTF?

Do they ship to EU countries only?

As for price, you can find them on massive sale every now and then. I believe they have been on Gilt quite a few times and BeyondtheRack as well. I bought a pair at Holt's Last Call in Vaughn, Ontario, Canada, for $30CAD.

No real experience with the clothes, but I love the jeans. I think the cuts and denim quality are great, and the washes, as have been stated before, are among the best. I think the construction quality (like Nudies) leaves something to be desired. I'd say the nearest American equivalent is something like Helmut Lang (some slightly edgier styles, good fits, underwhelming quality on some items, overpriced). Regarding denim, I'd give Acne the nod for diversity of fits and quality of washes, but HL for denim and construction quality.

Yah, I just can't see myself paying 260 dollars for a pair brand new, when ande whall comes in at 225. I tried on the Mic's and really like the fit though.

Honestly, though, that wash only looked mediocre. They didn't have a cool wash, but didn't appear raw, and they had more the look of Gap stonewashed jeans from the 90s. While the price is great, just keep a lookout and you can find some other good ones.

moot point now, but struck me more as maybe being mocs because of the rise and proportions, but they're too big on the model so hard to tell.

I have both the Mic and the Moc. Those aren't the Moc because the Moc has different back pockets and a crotch rivet.
