45rpm suminando is black over indigo.

45rpm nando nando is indigo x indigo with a black coating on top(?). Doesnt appaer this way to me but that's what salesperson told me.

of them both, nando nando is slimmer but still a straight leg. This is more similar to the pbj007 though.

If you need proxy services send me a pm :p

shoe, NO MORE JEANS

And I believe the nando x nando is indigo warp and suminando (black overdyed) weft, or the reverse.

I don't see how Shoe will have any time to get any contrasting fades with all the other denim he's picked up. Take him years to any decent wear in all of 'em. Haha I kid.

If I were to get an overdye jean right now...hell, any jean...I'd get Atelier LaDurance Prescott Darktone. Indigo warp and black weft...Nice cut and really nice details. Context will be restocking in a month or so. Re: the fading of overdye; Unlike normal jeans where you just have to wear through the warp and the undyed weft shows through (contrast fade), you have 2 layers of dye to work with. And the inside doesn't fade the same as the outside. So basically it gets all waxy after a lot of wear and Eventually, after a long, long, long time, you will get fading. Shoe how many pairs do you have now? A few months ago, didn't you know nothing about dry denim? Err...a lot of people beat me to it...but you really really aughta just find 1, 2, or 3 something you like and just WEAR WEAR WEAR.

Yeah no more jeans for me.

The last few that I got are my best pairs:

Pbj xx005raw. Waist 31
Eternal 866 o/w. Waist 30
Somet 008raw. Waist 29

And some of my other great jeans:

RRL slim boot raw. Waist 29
PRPS this year tight fit raw. Waist 30
