I think Traffic at the Beverly Center had them last time I walked through, but I'd call first before you brave parking there.

On that finish, nada!.

I saw these at Barneys Co-op South Coast Plaza. A nice jean for $175. They don't look that fitted though, and this finish only works on a skinny silhouette.

Yes, the Barneys in Bev Hills. They had a whole stack of them when I was there last week. I paid $175. They are quite fitted. The 32x34 did not have as long an inseam as the Thin Finns I have in the regular dry wash. Lately I've gotten used to a good deal of stacking with my jeans. These hardly stack on me (I'm 6'4").
They are also not as shiny as the photos here would suggest. I suspect it's the use of a flash on those close-ups.
I'm guessing the best bet is to size down 2 from your actual waist. They weren't uncomfortable when I put them on new and they haven't shown a ton of stretching after 4 days of wearing them.

I'd rather not plunk down the change and look like I'm wearing leather pants.

These are exceptionally cool and I have to find Thin Finns somewhere close by so I can check if the fit works for me.

Edit: I haven't liked Nudies for a while but this and the blue-black dry Even Steven are very nice.

Well apparently cultism.com is the place to go for these (if you're a 32, 33, or 34"). They are selling them for $139 shipped from Germany, and from what I've read the shipping time is crazy fast. It looks like they may even have the Slim Jim in a black coated. I 've never ordered anything from this company so I'm only taking other's word, but it looks like a pretty nice deal.

On cultizm, the jeans seem to be slightly different....

the Finn's are listed as NUDIE JEANS THIN FINN - DRY BLACK COATED - LIMITED and the Jims are NUDIE JEANS SLIM JIM BLACK BLACK COATED (note the lack of "Dry")

The pics look slightly different too, the Jims seems to have a little bit of (for lack of a better term) unevenness in the inner thigh - anyone know what the diff is?
