Greetings,

For sale is a pair of black/grey Helmut Lang raw denim bootcuts. They've been worn about 3 times, were dry cleaned once at Dove Cleaners (www.dovecleaners.com), and so have retained their raw denim look/feel. They are tagged a 32 but are too large for me (I've since lost weight) and likely fit someone who's a 33-34 waist. The waist measures (while lying flat) approx. 16.5 inches BUT not being a low-rise jean it is very much suited for someone with a larger waist than 32. The inseam had been hemmed when they were purchased (while on vacation in NYC at Barneys) some time ago to approx. 32" If you're a 32 waist, and you wouldn't mind the inseam shrinking an inch or two, you could wash them and they will shrink approx. 1 size - or so it says on the inside of the label. Made in Italy and asking $100 + shipping costs....I live in Canada but will gladly mark the item as a gift so that you won't be charged at customs.

And here is a Corpus, Made in the USA, straight leg fit black jean. Retailed for $200 - I'm asking $35 + shipping....also worn about 3-4 times and is too large. Size 31...measures 15.5" waist lying flat, 30.5" inseam. I'd recommend this for someone who's waist measures 31-32"

And the link to Dove Cleaner's is broken... (the right parenthesis was appended to the URL - no big deal in the grand scheme of things!) http://www.dovecleaners.com/
