^good looks man.

edit: Question, I bought a pair of ESDO's a few months back, got a killer deal on em but was extremely limited to the sizing. So I ended up buying tagged 30x32. My true waist size is 30. I like the cut and overall fit, but they are stretching a bit more than I hoped they would. I believe that I should have (if it were possible at the time) sized down to a 29, if not 28 in the ES's.

So now I'm hoping to cop a pair of GTDDO's off Attic during this sale. Should I go true to size (b/c of the cut of GT's), size up 1 (which I've read many ppl doing on the MyNudies forum), or what? I def don't want this to look "painted on" at all. I just don't want to size up and then have them stretch crazy amounts & then have the silhouette of the jeans go to shit.

^Commonly for denim, the tighter fit you have at the beginning the more they stretch. DO's seem to stretch alot so maybe go with your assumption of sizing down one like you did on your first pair to compensate for the stretching to occur.

first part: yes slim jim dry ecru are raw

im not quite too sure about the difference between the denim used, according to cultizm they both use japanese denim. The fading properties might be different, i havnt spent to much time on looking at faded nudies. Stitching is different for sure on the backpockets. Quality wise im sure they arent too far off because they call one "dry japans"

How much do the Dry Black Coated stretch out? Im planning on getting 2 sizes down because I want a slimmer fit then the slim jim offers. I was gonna go for a 30, a 30 in APC fits me fine. You guys think ill be good with 2 sizes down?

i've got both... and here's a comparison:

-both are raw with slightly different shades of indigo - ercu's appear to have a deeper blue
-SJDOEE have white stitching & SJDJ have orange stitching.
-SJDOEE denim uses organic cotton and elastane which gives it that softer and stretchy feel to it.
-SJDJ denim is typical 100% cotton. Slightly more rigid and slightly heavier denim than SJDOEE.
-Although both are slim jims, fit wise, SJDOEE are more fitted throughout, whereas the SJDJ is more loose fitting in the thighs and leg openings. People have reconsidered sizing because of the differences.
-SJDOEE typically require lots of patience and are known to take awhile before seeing wear and fades
-Like with any basic raw denim, SJDJ will break in fast with regular wear.

if anyone disagrees with my input, feel free to contribute.

otherwise good luck with your purchase, and hope this helps
