those look like the 511 "rigid dragon" I have the same pair. if they're 1% elastene i'd be almost certain that's what pair they are. i guess they're raw in the sense that they seem unwashed, and have a tag on them warning about dye transfer. will you see awesome fades like proper raw denim? no clue. although, this guy on sufu seemed to:

Having owned several pairs of Levi's rigid jeans, I would have to say that they apear to be raw denim. Do you know what they are called? Levi's uses the term rigid for raw denim.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the OP picture...Rigid Dragon. I own a pair. It's a nice cheap thin jean for $39.99.
