Yeah, I'm not too impressed by those 45rpm. I don't think I'll ever buy another pair of predistressed denim again. Don't discount 45rpm though, tony_hige's sorahiko's are easily the nicest looking jeans I've seen posted on the other sf. Though... his pherrow's are awesome too :p

but to think about how nice those look compared to the extra money you pay to have them look alright from the factory.... id say they are worth it one wash, not distressed.

for a hand distressed jean, they do look good, but not as good as natural wear

Does that 7 years and 5 years mean that those are "used" that long? Those look like mine after one year (but mine are usually more trashed).

For me the main thing about raw denim is the fact that after a while they look like MY jeans.

Those 45rpms look nice but I couldn't put that much money on...jeans.

Seriously, the pictures are nice! If I lived in NY I know I would be too tempted not to buy them (bespoke, well as close to bespoke as you can get, jeans get me all excited).
