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



Coming soon to a WRUW thread near you.

I imagine @STANDY 's Time for a Rum Darwin GTGs look something like this.

It's dangerous in a good way! 😉

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

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

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!

sdre

Wow how do u know, 313? Gonna head down later with a full lunch in my tummy hehehe

Dial & Bezel

Haha. I always make time to check out denim stores in every country that I visit. I just happen to have been to The Denim Store. 😉

sdre

Coolio! I'll check out the sizes at The Denim Store and I'll compare prices online. Thank you mate!

When I was a kid in the 1980s we used to trawl through second hand stalls to find Big E Levi’s from the 50s and 60s - £15 - £30 a pair, always wore them rolled up to show off the red selvedge , our diamond pattern socks and Brogues of course.
No pictures so it won’t count.
.......sorry old dude reminiscing!

Dial & Bezel

Wow. I've always wondered what the denim scene was like back in the 80s. Now I have an idea of what it was like. 😁 Would have been great if you had a picture of you rocking those Big E's!

It's never too old for anyone to wear denim. Maybe you should get back in the game. 😀

Dial & Bezel

Great! Don't mention it. Always happy to help. Let me know if you need anything else. 😀

I’ve still got a little skin in the game..........I’m not in Corduroys and Slippers just yet.

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?

Dial & Bezel

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.
