    Offical Barbour Thread

    I just got a hood for my Ashby. Is it as simple as just snapping in the 4 snaps? What about the color? It honestly looks pretty ridiculous with the collar and the hood. The collar flips up whenever the hood is on. What are the other snaps for and that little fabric flap that's snapped on the...

    I'm like the fit of the N&F WeirdGuy. I had a pair of the regular Indigo version but they were impossible to fade. I'm now looking for something in dark/deep indigo that has the propensity to fade over time. It doesn't have to be drastic but a year from now I would like to see a difference. Also...

    Offical Barbour Thread

    I just bought this Ashby on Grailed. In the listing it was supposed to be a Medium Olive with tags. When it arrived the tags were not attached and said size Small. The tag on the collar says that it's a Medium. It also fits like the Mediums I've tried on in the stores. The internal tag in the...

    Offical Barbour Thread

    Are there two versions of the Bedale? In some pics of the Olive color the snaps are the same color as a jacket and in other pics they are a brass color. Also, is this a Bedale or Ashby? http://imgur.com/a/lwpXp

    Offical Barbour Thread

    Ashby vs. Bedale-- is the Bedale any thicker? I just got the Ashby and it's surprisingly thinner than I expected. Is there Bedale any heavier or the same weight/thickness? I'm trying to figure out the difference between the two beside the sleeve lining (corduroy in Ashby, thicker collar...

    Offical Barbour Thread

    I just got an Ashby in Navy and I love it. However. I noticed that the collar is rather flimsy and barely stays up. Is there anyway to remedy this? i've heard the Beadle does not have this problem, is that true? It's too late for me to switch, and I like the fit of the Ashby, but I was just...

    Offical Barbour Thread

    Is this the actual Barbour Ashby coat? Nordstrom has it listed as "regular fit," but my understanding is that the Ashby is more of a tailored fit. Is this simply a mistake on their website? I just want to make sure that if I order from Nordstrom that I will be getting an actual authentic...

    I'm thinking about getting some Elephant 3s. How're people liking them so far? What exactly does the "beige" overcast mean? Any fit pics? Have people found that the run larger/smaller than normal WeirdGuys (I usually size up in WGs). Thanks.

    What N&F WeirdGuys can I buy that fade pretty easily? I'm looking for a dark indigo color that's not gimmicky.

    Naked and famous denim

    Thanks! What did you mean "keep the color." Also, I'd prefer a pair where I didn't have to work super hard to get them to fade. For example, the 13oz Indigos that I have now have been impossible to fade and I've had them for 11 months. Are the Deep Indigos that hard to fade as well? Also, is the...

    I'm looking for a model of N&F WeirdGuys that are a very dark indigo color. I don't want anything novelty or gimicky, just a pair of dark indigo weirdguys. What are my options? I already have a pair of the r 13oz weirdguys in Indigo. I'd love a pair of the Indigo/Indigo but I don't think they're...

    Wow, I'm surprised that after 20 months there's so little contrast. I don't blame you, it just proves that this model of N&F jeans are very difficult to fade. How many times have you washed them?

    Anyone have a fade pics of the regular Indigo WeirdGuys? I've had mine for months and have barely noticed any fading. I'm talking about these: http://www.barneys.com/Naked-Famous-Denim-WeirdGuy/059387347,default,pd.html

    The Unbranded Brand Jeans

    Thanks. Sad to see they still haven't increased the pocket size. I loved my Unbranded jeans but I had to return them because it was impossible to keep my phone and wallet in the front pockets. I currently wear N&F WeirdGuy which are great but are double the price and they don't always have the...

    Has this always been the case or did they recently increase the size of the pockets?

    The Unbranded Brand Jeans

    I bought a pair of Unbranded Tapered jeans about 6 months ago but returned them because the pockets were so small and tight. I could barely fit my wallet in the pocket. Has this changed at all in their newest collection?

    Naked and famous denim

    I've been wearing my Naked & Famous jeans for 6 months now. I think it's time to clean them. I'm wondering if I should do a wash or a soak? What is the difference? I'm guessing a wash is when I throw them in the washing machine, and a soak is when I soak them in the bathtub for 45 minutes. What...

    Naked and famous denim

    Not sure if this is the right place to post about Unbranded but since it's made by the same guys as N&F I figured I'd ask. I bought a pair a few months ago that fit great but I had to return them because the pockets were so damn small. It was incredible difficult to get my phone and wallet out...

    Naked and famous denim

    I wear a 32 in WeirdGuys. I have big thighs and a small waist. The waist was too big so I had the waist made tighter at a tailor. 31 would have fit better but I had to size up to a 32 because of my large thighs. However, I think that they flare out too much below the knee. Considering buy a pair...

    I have followed this thread for a while and I have never seen fade pics of the Indigo Selvedge. Apparently, they're pretty hard to fade but I was wondering if anyone had pics?
