Levi's for me.

its classic, quality is excellent, not ridiculously priced. you know their jeans are meant to be kept for long.
What do you think of  Andy Warhol by Levi's jeans? I saw several pairs on sale in Rustan's. P3,700 na lang from P7,000.

i'm not particular with the brand as long as its dry/raw, selvedge and fits properly. dry/raw because i want my jeans to have my own distressing imprint... selvedge because it's the old tedious process of looming the denim cloth with self finished edge and it synonymous to high quality. premium on this case is not dictated by brand but the quality of the material and construction.... lastly, fit... even if you have a $400 or so japanese denim but the fit doesn't suit your physique.... alam nyo na ang kasunod dahil it applies to all clothes

I don't know if ok ang jeans ng Bench(kasi yan lang ang brand na buy ko, pero mukhang ok naman ang quality).

Bumili ako ng 1 per few months kaya hindi ko iniisip na pwedeng pangmatagalan. Kasi pag nasawa na ako, hindi ko na ginagamit...

hmmm... Levi's, American Eagle Outfitters and Blue Harbor.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i just realized that i didn't answer the "why" part... hahaha!!!

Levi's --- c'mon... it's a classic! everyone look's good in a pair of Levi's (as long as you have it in your size, right?)

American Eagle --- i love their sanded denim washes. wala pa akong nakitang company that offers the same kind of visual texture for their jeans. i also like the feel of the denim; smooth, and it clings around your leg line really well.

Blue Harbor --- the fact that they locally carry my size and i don't have order it online is reason enough for me to be happy. since it's a british company, they have a different take on jeans. their cut is trouser-like, so the fit in the crotch area is a more roomy without sacrificing on the flat front aspect of the pants. plus their denim washes (like levi's and american eagle) are consistent across the pant... not splotchy and concentrated on the thigh.

my current favorite pair - bench OJ premium selvedge why? it's the cheapest dry selvedge denim and the material is waay better than most jeans na mas mahal pa. the fit is perfect and stacking is similar to dior homme, well it can be achieve by getting longer seam 34in and stiffer denim. ang ayaw ko lang malakas manghawa dahil unwashed or raw/dry, kaya nag-cold soak ako w/c i never did on my evisu and RRL para mabawasan na ma-stain ang lighter colored shoes and shirt. nasa 3rd month na pala ng walang labahan... ung evisu nasa 4th month na and RRL 13months and counting  :D

hehehe oo, sabi kasi sa label from my first dry jeans e 6 months bago labahan. pero dapat ata everyday suot para mas pronounced ang whiskering and honeycombs. kapag nalabahan prematurely di lalabas ang preferred effect. kaya in reality umaabot nga ng more than 9months or even a year bago labahan esp kung maraming dry selvedge kang mina-manage or schedule ng suot. in practical sense, 1 pair lang ng dry selvedge jean ok na to cover the whole denim department.

Post by: hiei on April 01, 2010, 05:42:11 AM
actually those are old school since they are using vintage machine to loom the denim w/ the self edge/selvedge. might be the dry/raw part kasi it's stiff as hell compared to the soft jeans na sanay tayo. pero lumalambot rin as in super lambot once you gone thru the break-in stage... yup, parang leather shoes without the blisters  ;D

bagay naman sa mga hefty people yung skinny jeans. it works well for big people since it creates the illusion of less mass by following the line of your body. not my thing though... i'd rather stick to regular straight cut pants ^^,

for being abundant and classic icon, i'll go with levis. kahit saan meron at distinctive ang fit. halos parehas tayo ng physique based on your description. nag-range waistline ko from 30-32 depending on the brand. and  malaki thighs and calves ko dahil i work-out and ride my bike. my suggestion is to start with levis then work yourself-up.

it seems walang kang preference sa cut as long as its comfy. i'd say get levis 501.

pero kung gusto mong a bit trendy, eto pa ang ibang choices:

1. 514 - slim straight. maluwag pa rin sa thighs then tapers sa calf pero maluwag pa rin but streamlined to make it look slim.

2. 511 - skinny, contrary to its label di sya skin tight, slim pa rin as the slim straight pero mas tight ang tapering to the hem. i suggest get one size higher.

tip:
sukat lang ng sukat, very common conception about slim kung mataba mukhang suman.. kung payatot naman mas mukhang tingting, but still it boils down sa right cut. paano mo malalaman na you have right cut? the jeans should create an illusion that will compliment your physique. so kung may makuha kang slim fit pero mukha pa rin suman it means it's not the right cut for you.

yup including 7FAM  ;D nothing special with the fabric and construction just plain soft and light denim.

w/ regards to denim, zimbabwe cotton is on the top of the list and normally seen on high quality japanese jeans. it's hand picked kaya lesser damages compared to a machine.

a/x
banana republic
zara

--> yan lang yung mga na-try ko na medyo ka-level or mas mataas sa levi's. yung iba, masyadong mahal na. minsan nga gusto ko subukan yung Viktor, custom-made jeans. but they range from 7k-10k last time i asked.

kahit dito sa US, sana magkaroon na rin sa west coast... sa east coast lang meron. way better ang quality ng uniqlo than its counterparts - zara, h&m...

kaso sigurado 'pag magkaroon sa atin maging ginto ang presyo tulad ng zara at topman which supposed to be mura.

angelo,

re: 7FAM... not worth it, i have a pair prolly their most discreet still so-so quality compared to my raws... mas ok pa ang levi's not in deragatory way to levis but mas bang for the buck ang levis regular line.... kung i-compare mo sa levis vintage clothing w/c keeps its real denim heritage... walang comparison esp the 1947 and 1967 re-issues.

re: viktor.... from what i heard it starts @ 7,000... pero at that price i'd rather get APC new or petite standard...
pero kung gusto mo talgang bespoke jeans meron pang isa pang gumagawa named lejandro... mas cost effective since he imports his denim cloth from japan for that high quality selvedge and dry jeans. if that's what you prefer.

speaking of dry selvedge denim, here's the heaviest denim to date and its highly limited to 10 pairs!

Naked & Famous stake their claim in denim history with the world's heaviest denim and their 32 oz model. Requiring some serious heavy-duty construction, the selvedge denim model is sure to elicit bloodied and bruised thumbs just from the buttoning process. As the pictures show, the denim stands-up on its own and will be limited to somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 pairs.

definitely a stand out! literally it can stand on its own hehehe

BUT if your thing is immediate gratification, soft and pre-wash then raw denim is not your thing... it'll take at least a month na araw-araw na suot just to break it in and that only works for 12-14oz jeans kung heavier stuff expect longer and there'll be blood  :o

Actually that's the least of your worries. pinakamahirap na part is the break in period... Super tigas nyan :) in a way advantage ang thicker and heavier denim dahil raw or dry di nilalabahan and that causes tje fiber to weaken... Regular sa mga raw jeans ang mapunit dahil sa effect ng di paglaba... Pero priceles ang personal imprint mo na fades, honeycombs at whiskering.

Post by: hiei on April 20, 2011, 10:58:02 PM
All raw or dry jeans are meant not to be washed. ung sa akin inabot ng more than 1 yr bago nilabahan, should have kept it longer for more pronounced fades lalo na ilan rin ang on rotation... Ubusin ko lang and next time 1 jeans na lang ako

Post by: hiei on May 02, 2011, 01:32:04 PM
i prefer raw and stiff as f*ck... no factory wash gusto ko ako mag-break-in to get my own honeycombing and distress at parang leather shoes... pagkaraan ng break-in super lambot na :)
Title: Re: what's your fave brand of jeans? why?
Post by: marvinofthefaintsmile on May 02, 2011, 01:38:26 PM
^^ so you want ung masikip na jeans? It's hard to wear those.. I remember I got some skin iritation on my thigh when I wore tight jeans one time..

what is break in?
what is honeycomb in jeans?
what is post-break in?
Title: Re: what's your fave brand of jeans? why?
Post by: hiei on May 02, 2011, 11:47:16 PM
Nope I dont wear skinny but there's a thin line between skinny and slim fit. All of my jeans are slim and tappered.... Tappered is best suited for us w/ bit thights but to some extent.

Break-in - initial phase of using something and distressing it.  common example new car na may break in period na 1k kkm... Pro d related sa fashion... Kya next is leather shoes w/0is similar with raw jeans that start as stiff before it becomes supple.

Honeycomb - are the fades behind your knees resembling honeycombs or diamond pattern

Post break-in - after break in jeans start to habe distressing ang supple.

ah ok.. tappered means mga tela na pinagtahi-tahi together? more like nakatapal?
Title: Re: what's your fave brand of jeans? why?
Post by: hiei on May 03, 2011, 08:59:30 AM
Tappered - type of cut where the pants have wider thigh entry but narrower hem. in comparison a straight cut pants naman has the same width throughout the legs
Title: Re: what's your fave brand of jeans? why?
Post by: marvinofthefaintsmile on May 03, 2011, 09:18:53 AM
so u'r saying that we can look better on a tapered cut since we can show more figures because it fits without the stiff like the skinnies..

What jeans do you recomend? (ung hinde expensive ah. [budget: around 1k])
Title: Re: what's your fave brand of jeans? why?
Post by: hiei on May 03, 2011, 11:36:34 AM
i mean about stiffness is parang naarmirol or been starched kaya stiff... usually mga skinnies malambot dahil di pure denim may elastic component in order to fit in.

yup, tapered cut will suit us best kung gusto mo ng slim cut. lately pinapansin ko how dwayne 'the rock' johnson, jason statham and always na maporma na sylvester stallone regarding how they carry their suits... kahit very muscular lean and long tingnan ang mga suit nila complementing their physique.

wala pa akong nababalitaan ulit na affordable raw selvedge jeans sa atin. the last time was 2 years ago ung sa bench OJ selvedge.... cheapest raw selvedge denim i ever had, tapos na-sale pa ng P400!! kaya nung naghanap ako lintek 2 size na lang at ubos na... na-check ng barkada ko mga bench shops sa metro manila, tapos na check ko sa ATC wala.... long shot sa probinsya namin ako naka-tyempo.

Yup, roomy on the thigh area then tapers down sa hem kung pansin mo narrow na sa hem. Naka sag rin ang jeans to give that non chalant look. Kung masikip and too close to skin suman labas sa kanya dahil litaw ang quads nun

bakit ganun pag mga kano, european, egyptian pag magsuot ng kahit anong damit ang ganda tingnan, dating mayaman talaga kahit affordable lang o simple  lang ang suot pero ang mga pinoys kahit suotan mo man ng ginto mukhang mahirap pa din o gusgusin  :D

^ yeah PGG users may be an exception coz they follow fashion pero yung karamihan ng pinoys ganun talaga ang mapapansin mo


siguro dahil sa kulay ng balat? hinde confident maglakad ang mga pinoy?

yung mga egyptians lang dito eh mga clerk lang naman pero kung pumorma pang manager hahaha. O maganda lang talaga tingnan pag medyo matangkad, maputi at confident maglakad na hinde naman mayabang ang dating

Ang mga pinoys kasi pag naglalakad lagi nakayuko or mahiyain  ;D isang factor siguro iyon

Marvinifthefaintsmile,
Yes, if you prefer just slim cut w/c can be sag on top and little stacking sa bottom.

Pinoybrusko,
I dont see it tht way parang pantay lang dami ring baduy na kano at mukhang gusgusin... kahit rin neighboring asian brothers natin they have their fair share of kabaduyan. The only thing I can think of sa atin mga pinoys walang distinctive porma unlike the japanese, italians, british and americans. pero oks lang kasi these 4 cpuntries create their own trend and the rest follow. Mga koreano sa mga japanese lang namn nanggaya then spread na sa buong asia in different degrees.

fox69,
Pansin ko lng sa average mayaman sa atin rely on certain formula.. They usually wear known high ticketed items na diffusion brands nman ang karamihan, then tayong common na tao sees it as status symbol kaya gaya rin tayo. Good example na formula - polo shirt, pants and shoes... Sa polo madalas yan lacoste, fred perry or diffusion ng burberry at ralph lauren... Sa pants ung premium jeans na uso sa US na 7fam, true religion or diffusion brands ng armani, ralph lauren, dOlce... Shoes apparently kuha ng tama ng pinoy since madali naman malaman kung alin talga uso but still fall prey sa mga tacky designs w/ screaming big brands... To top it off dapat may accessories na panalo palagi pinoy... For men matinding relo palagi and usually high end.. Same with women and their bags... But the.problem is accessories yan you have to work first w/ your main ensemble.
