I'd say the real question is, do you like the D01's you got? Why don't you just keep them? There is nothing wrong with a 16.5 cm hem.


Thwy didn't look bad necessarily, until just under the knee, when they start to pool a lot at the ankles. I was thinking of having them tapered before realizing that they were D01s. Since the D02s are available, I'll just grab those.

You can't really get any stacking with the D01s without constantly stepping on the hem imo

Thanks for the help though!

Have you looked on Facebook SLP buy sell group? It is quite extensive

Yep pretty much this, I sold mine and got D02s and when I first put them on I was like **** why didn't I get these on day 1

Hi guys, do you mind helping me with a legit check on these two pairs?
While they seem good to me so far, I'm by no means an expert and have been wrong in the past.
Thanks

Sorry about the order by the way.

The bikers are legit, I don't know enough about the other pair to tell you. Biker fakes mess up the bottom knee zippers (not diagonal enough), some of them still use the D02 label, some don't have SLP branding on the main waist button, the zipper shapes are different, and if you look behind the knee zippers (inside the pants) they won't have SLP branding on the backside. Your tag is also an identical match to mine.

Thanks for the help. Really appreciate it.
If the bikers are legit I'm 95% sure he's legit, as the bikers are probably more prone to being fake than the destroyed jeans.

The distressing also seems to check out mostly with the model on SSENSE (https://www.ssense.com/en-ca/men/product/saint-laurent/blue-skinny-destroyed-jeans/1399713).
It's just that it has the new tag, which I'm not really familiar with.

Adrian beckham I don't think the teddy jacket you posted looks too small on you. Are you sure you want to size up - a full size is significantly bigger.

I second that Adrian beckham. I got a 48, and had to resell and buy a 46 (im always one or the other size depending on the piece). sleeves are waaay longer and the body is much bigger and rounder if you size up. I felt like I looked like the Michelin man.

I do like the fit around the chest, but the sleeves end around my wrist bone when my arms are down, and do ride up as they bend. I'm leaning more towards just selling and trying a leather or something instead of sizing up now.

well you got the insta pics in it so ******* why not.

@FervorousDesire were those from a dude requesting a trade on grailed? if this is the one I was thinking of, the dude claimed to have virtually everything, and gave me a pretty weird vibe--be careful.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll give it another go this weekend and see how it feels before I sell it or take it down.
