I totally agree---------the pocket w/o stitching looks waaaaaay long.

Unless it's falling off and coming appart after months of wear, then leave it be.

I would have to remove it before I ever wore them. Not because the brand is played-out - I never see anyone wearing them in my area - but because it is such an unsightly design. It is an utterly vulgar and cheap-looking design, perhaps even worse than True Religion or R&R.

Whoa there cap'n. At least the garish part of the Nudies doesn't extend to the shape of the pocket itself.

thats just crazy talk. some little swirls as bad as a huge misshappen ugly ass pocket with garish often multicolored stitching?

not quite but to each there own.


i always thought nudie was pretty classic, akin to lee or levis. not to plain or overdesigned.

I spotted some new Thin Finns the other day with the pocket stitching in dark blue (other stitching was orange as usual), so it didn't stand out. Fairly pointless I thought at the time, but once they fade it'll become visible.

I've hacked all the defining marks - labels, pocket stitching, etc - off most of my jeans, but I mostly just feel that drawing attention to ****** makes it look fat!

I'm such a woman...

I can't see removing the stitching unless it depicts a butterfly ****** a unicorn or something like that. Probably not (especially not) even then. If the stitching is too fruity, I wouldn't buy it to begin with.

When one is trying to look more masculine, reaching for the sewing tools is rarely the answer.

DDML did you photoshop that or is it real? Either way it's awesome.

I bet the quality on those jeans is well worth the $100. If I could take the pics off of the pockets, i would easily buy those.

Something cool like that always comes up when I've just blown my discretionary income on something else.

I like the Nudie stitch, so I say keep it.

You could just take one or two of the lines out. I've seen pictures of people thinning out the Nudie stitch and I think it looked quite good.
