Yeah i noticed that on my nimbus as well, I googled it and it looks like turin is a shade of indigo? Not 100% sure

Turin might be the city in Italy like the white pair, Pompeii.

Maybe it was supposed to be a new wash, but Nimbus was so popular that the name got changed back.

View attachment 860839 View attachment 860840 Did anybody get their Nimbus’s in? Just curious what the “Turin” mean’s on the tag? Are they changing the name or does it stand for something? I went and looked at old tag’s and it said things like Pre-fall, Season 9.5 denim or light denim with paint splatters.
All the names on the tags are different than the names on the websites for the denim, that’s why you’ll see other retailers list the denim with things like “vintage indigo”, “washed black”, “jet black”, etc on their websites rather than the names we’re used to calling them. I’m guessing the names on the tags are the internal, pre production names they give the items and the names like “nimbus” are thought of somewhere closer to the release.

Which can make it tough to track down different washes from 3rd parties in my experience.

Onyx coming in today, pretty stoked. On a side note - shipping from Mr. Porter's UK site is ridiculously fast. Ordered them 2 days ago

Got an email notification that Union has the stadium as a new release but nothing on the website. Hopefully releasing online...

I was thinking something along the same lines before I posted this. I searched for “Turin color” thinking it was a dark blue or something but nothing meaningful came up. A shade or type of denim makes sense, though.

It is annoying that the denim doesn’t have a universal names across stores/sites. Especially because a lot of smaller sites don’t have searchable UPC’s.

Damn that geller shirt! ID?

I think from FW 2014/15 or so? You see variants pop up from time to time, but it has black sleeves and it's a nice medium weight.

So I got the coasts in yesterday and when I opened the package and took out the jeans, I heard a snap sound and something popped and hit my dresser. Turns out one of the little Button things near the pockets on the front snapped off before I even had a chance to try on the jeans.

Has this happened to anyone else? So random and I wonder how that could have happened..
