First pair of raw denim.

[np99sky]

I'm close to starting college, and I'd like to get nice jeans for once. So far, I've stuck with thrift stores or over the counter levi's for $5. It's been okay.

I don't really know much, but I'm aiming for either black or indigo. Preferably not skinny jeans, just as a matter of comfort -I prefer straight, with no tapering. Slim besides that is fine.

I realize this kind of thread probably happens a lot. My apologies

Upwards of $300 max, I'm not rich, even while working multiple jobs. Even so, that should cover most things, hopefully.


The ones that looked especially cool were the:

Rag & Bone, classic straight indigo

Nudie Regular Ralf Straight in Dry Selvage

Kicking Mule Workshop 1980 Black Selvage



Would anyone know anything about those, or recommend anything else?

It's much appreciated.

apc rescues are pretty good for $140 only, get them from denimbar and you get 20% off

but since you're budget goes up to 300... you can probably splurge on some japanese denim. haven't really gone up past 150 so wouldn't have any experience. look at blueingreensoho.com and check it out. ask some more knowledgeable people about the japanese brands

http://www.styleforum.net/showthread.php?t=55144 Might want to add Nudie's Straight Sven on your list instead of the RR. Also price check at Denimbar as you'll get a better deal there.

I'll move this to the other thread.

Thanks much.
