as Rick Owens himself is a fitness person, I really don't understand why the stooges size 48 is got a size 48 body but 46 sleeve.

and when I up size to 50, I got my arm fit but body too loose.....sucks !!!

I've been trying to find online somehere, but with little luck some kind of guide to general info about all of the different drkshdw jeans styles. Do the names of the models correspond to a type of cut?

Thanks in advance

Yes they do, all are slim fit but i know of 3 popular ones Memphis, Berlin and Detroit. I have Detroit cut that stacks and am pretty happy.

check http://serie-noire.fr they have some nice cuts. careful with yoox they are a hit n miss.
