So bad ass. I'd love to see the wash on the 4th pair up.
Just purchased a pair from Luisviaroma a week or two ago and just so disappointed with the wash. Looks so cheap. I had purchased the same pair(I thought) a year or two ago. Since it was from the permanent collection I thought it wouldn't be too different.

Boy was I wrong. Really hate what's happened to SLP denim after Heidi left.

The sample pics on MrPorter/LVR etc of this jean look amazing (wash/whiskers/fading) but the actual production model/what you get in the post looks **** in comparison.

You are not supposed to wear your SLP garments, keep them in storage so they stay pristine.

Right?!!
I'm almost wondering if they sent me the wrong pair. Totally different than the pics. SSENSE had a sale this past Christmas and I bought a pair that looked almost the same. But I bought it for about $300 less than what I paid for this pair. I want to return these and just stay on the hunt. This wash is absolute ****.

Thank you for your post, could you please expand more? Are there any good links you have or have a preferred method for washing? I did a quick search and they seem to back what you are saying more for destroying the denim but most links were sloppy. I've just always had the fear of shrinking them. Are even organic cleaners a bad option?

I'm not familiar with organic cleaners so I have opinion on that. I use woolite on my denim and no fading or shrinkage what so ever. However the denim does shrink back to how they feel when you first put them on. Always hand wash clothes inside out and not too long either. 15-20 mins tops. Drip dry.

A couple of recent pickups: Hedi-era peak lapel blazer (back from the tailor) and the western bomber from Hedi's last season at SLP. I really, really like the bomber; the fit is perfect and the detailing is so nice.

Nice pic. i love the wash of that denim jacket. what season is that from?

Guys i'm really thinking..

Do you think women like men in Hedi SLP or do they just think we are gay?

 

[GG Allin]

And a side question: how do I best structure my life to win the approval of women?

...it's actually a thrifted denim jacket from women's Gap haha. The ones in store are a lot baggier and longer than this one is though.

You might need a guitar with the slp outfit to win approval of women.

That is awesome! It looks great on you.

Same situation here on that Mr Porter and LVR denim. Look great in pics but horrible in person. I ordered them and returned them immediately after opening the box. The wash did not match the pics at all. Was very disappointed.

haha, funny topic, and obviously discussed in jest, but IME, the less one structures one life with the goal of impressing women, paradoxically, the more women will be drawn to you. That's assuming the baseline factors, such as good personal hygiene are met.

Wearing SLP is probably emblematic of that, e.g., there's a big difference between spending an hour fussing and choosing a full-SLP outfit, and someone that throws on a pair of SLP jeans with a thrifted denim jacket, etc.

Most women don’t know you’re wearing slp. Hedi or not. Nor do they care.

They probably only see that you’re not either wearing sperry or a hoodie and sweatpants or you shopped with your mom at jcrew.
