I am admittedly too particular about everything I buy including jeans, and I'm having a very hard time finding anything I like.

As an example, I did not know about Good Morning Keith and they look cool, but tonal stitching on blue jeans bothers me a lot.

If anyone has suggestions on straight or slightly wide, raw (or washed but raw looking) jeans with an actual high rise and simple styling I'm all ears though.

The only other potential candidate I've found are A.P.C. standards, but those seem to always be sold out in my size for whatever reason

I would recommend the Norwegian brand Livid. Especially the Barnes model - straight, wide, proper high rise. Good denim.

So you don’t want slim jeans how wide is wide like just simple straight or actually old school wide or flared?

TCB 50's and Livid both look like great suggestions! I'll be contemplating :)

Simple straight but maybe slightly on the wider side. 22-23ish cm leg opening is probably a sweet spot for me. Not flared.

I noticed that too with Uncle Jude's, very strange. They were the last store that was carrying Husbands for under retail.
I spoke with Uncle Jude's on Instagram, and Husbands is now carried at OAK ROOM


Unfortunately as far as I can tell they don't do international orders.

Oak Room definitely used to do international order, I don’t know about now, but used to be you can talk to them on their FB page and they can fulfill order (other than Alden)

I had a vintage cloth and had this jacket made in the Husbands Paris style. Would love feedback on if it hit the mark. X-post to the Tailor Fit and Feedback thread.

looks very good in its own right but doesn't have the dramatic lapels of a Husbands jacket, if that's what you're going for. It's very hard to compare gorge heights from your photos, so not sure whether I'm right about this, but suspect that the gorge is a little higher on your jacket. I like the buttoning point on your jacket and the shoulders look great.

However, the virtue of MTM (I assume you're using Luxire) is that you don't have to (and IMO shouldn't) copy someone else's style.

Fit-wide wondering whether it is a little tight in the waist or if it's simply your posture in the first picture.
