Bought it a few years ago from a store called Country Road here in Australia. It would not be available anymore.

Uh oh. DOn't worry about it; I am trying to keep my clothing spending (not very succesfully, mind you) under control.
Appreciate it though, thanks!

Got bored today so decided to photo the current denim rotation:

Rogan Original in Ethanol wash. These have some pretty interesting details, like three different colors of stitching. The cut is kind of odd though, since the outseam is cut to taper in towards the center of the leg at the front.





Sugarcane Okinawa, raw selvage, 14.25 oz. Washed once in warm water because they smurfed so badly when I first got them. Been wearing these mostly indoors for the last couple months after work. You can start to see some distressing, but they've got a long way to go.





APC Rescues. Fifteen months old now, washed maybe five times.





Three more to come.

It's done as a tribute to old Levi's, IIRC. I do like Rogan, but haven't worn mine in a long time. They're really comfy.

PDC RPM selvage denim. Very lightweight denim, decent details. The wash is a little silly, but not horrible. Because the denim is light and they are a little looser with the bootcut, I actually wear these quite a bit in warmer weather.





Kohzo persimmon dyed denim. Pretty interesting, but not something I can wear very often. Lowrise bootcut.





And finally, the newest addition, Samurai S5000VX, one wash selvage, 17 oz. The denim here looks great, although I'm not sure it's 10000 yen greater than the Okinawas. I think these are 1966 repros (the Okinawas are 1947), so they are lower rise and not as chunky through the seat and thighs as the Okinawas.

These are my Edwin 503 Blue Trips one wash. I have been wearing them for about three or four months, although I have been forced to wash them a few times so they don't have great contrast. The denim is very slubby and so you get lots of little vertical lines, especially on the seat of the pants. They aren't my main jeans now because I hate the way they fit

. I got them from coldrice, and they are a size 34, which I normally wear. But these suckers run pretty big. I probably should have got a 33, or maybe even a 32. Oh well! I'll still wear em every now and again.

those look awesome. everytime i see a pair of nice nudies with that beautiful blue, it makes me want to run out and buy a new pair.

Apparently you haven't received the memo... Nudies are dead. Hah. I love the color of faded Nudies also.
