I'll give those a shot, thanks. It's not that I don't have more, it's just that I don't want to spend more. I mean, is the quality of premium denim that much better?

Its alot better.. levis are great for the price tho.

What jean would you recommend that has a fit that is in between Levi's slim straight and skinny?
Would like a few non-raw answers if possible too

would i need to find a really legit, professional tailor to get a 3" hem and maybe re-taper on my APCs? or could i go to an independent alteration or like the Men's Warehouse tailor?

if anyone could reply with a PM that'd be really dope, i'll probably forget to check back here

as far as i know, unless you skate/bike/do some sort of very active sport with your legs in your denim, you won't get awesome fades from Cures within a short period of time(<1 year). i think they're just a good pair of raw denim to have

out of ur list cures will prolly give u the best fading, but cures is a pretty different fit compared to slim jims and wierd guys, definitely not wierd guys they'll be a pain to get some contrast.

how does the effect of an ocean wash
differ from a reg tub soak
(does salt, and whale sperm have a dramatic different effect)

Not with a bang but a whimper
