How do the Drakes fit compared to the raws - are they raw or washed?


I haven't tried on the raws, but I imagine the sizing is similar. I wear a 28 in APC NS/PNS, 29 in Dior raws, and a 28 fit me well in the waist, but too small in the calves. :(

The Drake fabric is more of a twill canvas. It's lighter weight than denim, and while it doesn't feel pre-washed or treated, it's not stiff and crispy the way raw denim is.

I'm a 31, ordered a Drake in a 30, and it didn't fit in the waist or thighs. So TTS may be the way to go.

Giving a heads up here that we will be releasing the Villain & Riga styles of our terry sweatshirts in limited quantities today, probably within the next couple of hours. The Flash & Escobar will still come next week along with more quantities on Villain & Riga.

Will I have opportunity to just buy all I want (Mercer, Escobar, Villain) next week, or should I grab piece by piece whenever they are available?

You should buy what is available now. I wouldn't want the Villain to be sold out next week!
