I agree the Odeon wash looks different however I asked and apparently no changes to wash just the updated cut.

I need to try the new cut out. Old cut sucked on me

Can someone post some photos of the Brown Villain, and Escobars if they have? I'm wondering if the brown looks like a standard military color brown, or if it has a nice rich, deep look to it as we've seen on the recent green hues of sage, alpine, etc. Thanks in advance

The pictures include Alpine Escobars vs. the Brown Escobars under regular lighting and white lighting. I hope it helps.

how do the cast 2 fit compared to rag and bone fit 1? R&B fit 1 is my go to - it is super slim on my legs tho and I can't go any slimmer without being completely skin tight. Thanks

Thanks so much man, that helps a ton. Do you have a villiain? I'm on the fence on purchasing a sweat set since I've never worn brown before, do you find it pretty versatile with denim and such? Thanks for taking the time gain, I really appreciate it.

If it was me, I would not buy a kake in slate or dark navy if I already had one or the other.  They are very, very similar.  I also have to disagree and can spot a large difference between the normal black and dark navy colour terrys.  Slate compared to dark navy on the other hand is incredibly similar in my view.  Why not spend the money on another piece entirely? Or an entirely different or new colour that will inevitably be dropping in the new season?

Unless you've got money burning a hole in your pocket, in my opinion it would be a waste.

Appreciate it.. any idea when the new season drops?

@sheeky I'd wait it on it like leflop mentioned. But..just for reference, there's Navy top right vs. black bottom left. Every pic will give off different colors, but you can get a general idea. I put on my navy half zip in navy the other day thinking it was black and didn't realize it was navy until a little while later. Great color but too close to black so I ended up selling it

Thanks a lot.. so the question is now.. if I own the KM in slate should I buy it in black as well.

The only villain I have is a short sleeve crewneck in black. IMO villains sweatshirts are pretty versatile and can be worn with denim or with Escobars. If you haven't tried one on before, I'd recommend to size up by one size since they run small. Good luck!

I've never bought any JE denim before but I wanna buy my first pair from this restock so I'm looking for some opinions. I know I should buy what's most suitable for my style but here's my thinking…

The Nero's are black and black goes with everything so that's almost an auto cop on I'd wear them the most out of the three. Personally I think the Odeon wash is the sickest wash and probably my favorite jean color from JE. But the Springs are a classic and I love how they don't have knee blowouts so they can be worn more formally. Looking for some feedback or a consensus that if you had to take one of the three, which are you copping. Thanks fam.
