My dirty fades refuse to actually fade.

4 months or so of daily wear on my dirty fades, finally starting to get some whiskering and fades at the knees. Kind of a tough first step into raw denim for me.

How did you size on your dirty fade? TTS or down 1?
Been getting mixed review on sizing for Skinny Guys, some say down1 and some say tts...

I had to try a few different sizes actually. If you go to blue owl workshop they have the precise measurements. The ones I got were about 3 inches larger at the waist than their tag size.

Just picked up my first pair of raw denim. Naked and Famous LHT skinny guy size 30 (my waist measure 33 around where I wear them), super tight at first barely could get the top button buttoned unless I sucked in like a chick but now after 3 days its nice. Should I cuff or not?????

How'd you get a custom pair?

It's beautiful! Those pants probably have their own ecosystem though.
haha you might be correct mate
N&F gave these to me for winning a fading contest a while back, the first one they ever did. I am going to give them a rinse soon for sure

That's amazing. What specifications did you give them for it? Were there any limits?

If I ever won a custom pair from N&F I'd go balls to the walls. Specific type of denim, specific cut, taper, length. ~The dream pair~

I would definitely cuff them up a tad at very least. I would also recommend you hem if you can. How tall are you?

i had suggested a super frankenstein like pair when he won but its not as customizable as we would assume. they have a list of stuff you can choose from and when he won, that list was pretty small. the custom options in korea were awesome apparently though but still not FULL customization

Lame!

A super frankenstein would have been hilarious. A patch of stainless steel here, some scratch and sniff around the crotch, a glow in the dark ass of course...

Hi,

Can someone help me with the sizing.

My favourite pair is Buffalo Six. It's a slim straight and the leg opening is 8.5". Upper thigh is 10.5"
I used this guide to get the measurement. Not sure if that's the correct way though.

Any suggestions on which cut would be best? Am I supposed to size down or up for the waist? I wear a 33 for the Unbranded UB301 and the fit pretty good.

yeah they give you denim and thread color options and you can choose any existing cut. It is still a really really awesome prize. I also had them add a red patch which looks nice :)
I put up pics on this site a long time ago when i first got them. Currently I am rocking the new blue owl x NF. The denim is great.
