  • RPM West to ship aug/early sept apparently.

  • Anyone recommend me a place (aside from Liberties who have no size or selection) for APC denim?

    Their London store has closed as well..

  • their shop is still open on Redchurch Street, E2 7DJ

    it's just the Dover St one that shut down

  • Ace, thanks - don't think I've been to that one.

  • Lack of sales or no need for two shops?

  • So, despite taking 3 times longer than promised I finally got my Nudie jeans back from the** NUDIE** jeans repair shop. The one in Soho that exclusively repairs Nudie jeans.

    It's free. Get down there whilst it's still in business.

    I read that the owner of the Dover Street shop wanted to sell and booted them out...

    Urban outfitters Covent Garden had APC denim last week.

    Just ordered slate gustins. The wait begins.

    No, just shit clothes

  • Harsh.

  • ....but true

    APC = The French Ted Baker but twice the price

  • Burns all APC clothes in backyard.

  • How are the albam jeans? Do they alter the length for free?

  • Just picked up three pairs of Lee 101B in TK Maxx Brixton. Raw denim, white selvedge cinch back, high waist... They were the nearest thing to good fitting, feeling looking jeans I've found in an age so bought all three pairs in 32/32. I'm normally a 34 or 33 waist but the 34s were huge. Figured if they're as nice as I think they are they'll keep me going for years. If not I'll flog them on here at cost. They were £50 a pair.

    Those are nice jeans with a good loose fit , I like how roomy they are in the thigh . Are they the cowboy model with the suspender buttons and left hand patch, or the hair on hide patch version ?

    Aren't you professionally obliged to know what you're talking about?

  • any thoughts on linen in jeans?
    I've been really loving my linen shirts and suits really and thought that it could be a great idea to use linen blend denim for jeans. think it could make some cool creases and fading. what do you reckon?
    I haven't been able to find any, but I've bought some light weight jeans with 30% hemp that I think will wear similar. they are totally awesome in the summer, but I can't comment on fading yet.

    Cheers. The latter I believe but yeah the room for man thighs is a blessing. The high rise also works for me as I have an almost freakishly long torso and stumpy legs. I'm forever hoiking up jeans or re-tucking in escaping work shirts. Not at the same time, I do not present Top Gear.

    A fan then?

  • How are the albam jeans? Do they alter the length for free?

    I always recommend them as a good jean. Decent price and two great cuts.
    Im pretty sure they alter them for free - but it might cost now.

    I can find out for you, if you like?

    They the ones with the blue selvedge trim? If so, they're lovely. Sadly couldn't find them in my size. I have too many jeans anyway so I'm out for while.

  • He wasn't a customer, so there wasn't any service.

    That was kind of my point. :)

    Yes you did.

    Obvsly not your fault, but... worst pair of "jeans" I've ever owned.

    Fancy that....

    Yup. They're great man. I'm in deep smit with the pair I've been rocking since Wednesday. Can't decide whether or not to rotate the other two pairs or keep both or one of them as "new old stock" to bust out in all their raw crispy indigo-ness in years to come.

    If I were to keep a pair or two back for are they okay folded in a drawer or you think I ought to hang them up?

  • I would say if you anyone does go to get some (theres plenty in brixton TKM) the 32s I got have already stretched out to 34ish after less than a week. I'm actually mildly concerned that they'll end up too baggy.
