    I'm thinking it's about time to start rocking the double denim combo again.



    Coming soon to a WRUW thread near you.

    Just saw an episode of Craftman's Legacy about Detroit Denim Co. American made selvage denim, I think they also do bespoke tailoring.
    Jeans look spectacular

    It's dangerous in a good way! ;)

    Where are you located, @sdre? If you prefer brick and mortar stores maybe I can recommend some. :)

    Singapore mate. I know there's a few denim shops in town. I might go down and try. But jeez I know the lady is gonna be giving me a disapproving look. Most Singaporean sizes are 30-32 inches waist.

    The Denim Store in 313. Prices are a bit higher than Denimio and OkayamaDenim though. But it's a good place to start if you wanna try out a couple of different brands and fits.

    Good luck, buddy!

    So I dropped by The Denim Store and I tried the Nudie Jeans tilt tor dry flat selvage. Fits me okay but I'm a fan of apc. Anyone knows if there's an equivalent of this cut, in selvage but by apc?

    @Nathan1967 - Keeping it old school! Talk about vintage! :thumbsup: Those Big E's are hard to come by these days. Never seen those '69 but it's good to know.

    That exposed selvedge coin pocket. :rolleyes: Very nice! And the crotch area is holding up pretty well. :D:D

    Well, APC used to not have any stretch denim. But now they do, just like Nudie. Both denims have similar weight, Nudie - 12.5oz and APC - 12.75oz. If you want a smiliar cut by APC, you may wanna try APC Petit Standard, just like the ones @micampe has. Please remember to not get mixed up with APC Petit New Standard. That's a slimmer cut of Petit Standard.

    Check these out:
