Right now, I've been working on a pair of Nudie bootcut olas for about 6 months. I've only washed them once so far at the 3rd mark month. They are still very dark and don't have much for fade lines. I like it this way because I can still dress them up nicely. These are definately the best fitting pair of jeans I've ever owned. I have them in 30 waist and 32 leg and they me perfectly.

I want to get another pair of jeans with an almost identical fit but just with a lighter wash. I'm not looking for distressed jeans or anything; just something with a lighter wash. I've looked at the washes that Nudie offers for the bootcut ola and I don't like any of them. I would also prefer something with a back pocket design. I really like the Nudie back pockets and have received a lot of compliments on them. Lastly, I want the jeans to be made from good quality denim, preferably better quality than my olas are. My olas are non-selvege denim.

What does everyone recommend?

Check out Holt Renfrew, Mark James or The Men's Club, they all have a fairly wide variety of jeans, so you can try them on for yourself to see what fits best.
