Hello,
I have a chance to acquire a pair of Dior Homme jeans but ive become suspicious after noticing that the fastening on the waist is a button like the rest of the fly instead of the normal hook/eye one ive seen.

Am I being too paranoid or could these be from an earlier season?
Thanks in advance

Never heard of authentic DH jeans without the hook enclosure at the top.

Uhhhhh, people? He didn't even say they were raw.

AFAIK all or almost all of the raw Diors have the hook and eyelet closure.

But Dior Homme definitely makes washed jeans with standard button flies. I have two pairs (fw09 'Nocturnal Light' coated & fw08 'Bedrock') and both have button waists.

Not my pics but you get the idea:

Correct. I have a pair of MIJ waxing moons with the standard button rather than the clasp you see on the raws.

The button is not a problem, but we would have to see a pic of the jeans to authenticate.

I bought my 19cm black raws from Dior Homme in LV. I called them and gave them my credit card info over the phone. They probably have the 21cms too.
