Another 'where can I get it' question:

For those of you in the Bay Area, where should I check for Paper Denim & Cloth's jeans, LTD cut, on sale? I just bought my first pair and they fit great. How about in LA?

Also, suggestions on good quality jeans with a similar fit would be welcome. Basically I need a boot cut jean with a relaxed fit or very relaxed fit and not too low of a rise (I'm not Brazilian.)

Wow, even A.Harris is into Paper Denim now. I must be doing something right (BTW - saw your Vass's at Louis Boston - amazing, though I can't justify 2 months rent on a pair of shoes). Louis Boston had all their remaining Paper Denims on sale (50% off) Call them. Very limited selection, but worth looking for. If you are thinkining of buying more than one pair, a membership in trenddepot.com might be worth it as well. Scoopnyc.com may have them on sale (though not a great sale) soon as well. Do not pay the jacked up "sale" prices fro goclothing.com. Also, intermiittently at Filene's basement for $70 (best value I've found there was $50 for the military LIT-light style - love those jeans). If you PM me your size and phone number (I go about once a week) if I see something you might like, I could see if you are interested and pick it up for you.

I think I may have asked this before, but can anyone tell me if men's PDCs even exist in a 28 waist and a 31/32 length?

Really long leg lengths mean that, after alteration, the baked-in back-of-the-knee creases can end up around my calves...

Nick M,

I've never seen any PDC with 31/32 length. But they tend to shrink an inch or so after being washed and dried so it doesn't look so weird (at least that's what I think) on a person who wears 31/32 inseam.

I own three pairs of PDC jeans: LTD, ICN, and GTO models. This shrinking has only happened to LTD and ICN jeans and was not very noticeable on GTO jeans. I don't know if it has anything to do with their cuts, LTD and ICN being full-cut and GTO a regular bootcut.

I was just at Nordstrom Rack today by South Coast Plaza. They had several seven for all mankind and a few Paper Denim and a whole rack for diesel. All for about 60$ each. I dident buy anything though. I dont really like diesel and none of the sevens or PDCs fit. But i figure its only a matter of time before i find some. I only live 10 mins away

Anyway, Nordstrum Rack is at the top of my list for jeans.

Mike:
I can try. I wont be able to go back there until monday though.

They only had one pair of 31s. There was no inseam marked, so i tried them on and think they were 32 inches long and I wear a 34 inseam so i passed. Also, i think this pair was marked at 70$ not 60$.

Anyway i have no clue how to ship clothes or use paypal, if you wana teach me though, when i find some 31s ill send em.
btw they had a ton of 29s
