So, anyone else hear about the limited edition Weird Guy that have been made exclusively for the South Coast Plaza Barney's Co-Op? Apparently there were only 13 pairs made of this super bright blue deadstock denim with the pocket linings created from old Japanese robes. Or something. I went in the other night and one of the dudes that works there was stoked to show them off to me. They're not even out on the floor. Very, very cool, though a little steep by N&F standards at a cool $300.

These sound cool, do you remember if they use the same hardware as regular N&F jeans or if it is a little higher end for the rivets and buttons?

To be completely honest, I didn't pay enough attention. I was distracted by the pocket lining. I would hope the hardware would be nicer considering the 2x price, but I'm not sure. I'll probably go back at some point this week so I might ask then. I guess they were made for some Fashion Week or something going on at South Coast.

Cool, let me know. I think N&F's normal hardware is fine for the $100-$150 that you usually find them for, but in the $300 price range, yeah, it is noticeably subpar.

If your measurements are correct, you won't be able to get this cut buttoned up without using that waist stretcher.

Total noob here. How do the various Naked and Famous fits compare with the APC NS? My guess is the NS are in between the weird guy and slim guy? I like the fit of the APC NS through the thigh and legs but I hate the diaper ass they have.
