those nudies are SICK good job!
thanks! it is a little bit more subtle in real life, but they definitely look like a totally different jean.

Honestly I love dry denim and I always have a pair laying around now. They're my ultimate "beater" jeans because you literally don't have to give a crap about them at all. Stains, mud, scratches, who cares? This is a far cry from me freaking out over every little stain on some of my more detailed washed jeans.

As far as I know, Nudie jeans are made in Sweden. They do use Italian and Japanese cotton (dry and veggie)

yeah, I said screw it and just pay up instead of buying them on ebay or some shop in Europe. I originally wanted FGs but 33s were too small for me so I exhanged them for RRDS.

How did you treat/care for the jeans? Friction and rubbing will wear any garment, no matter the quality

No mine didnt get ripped, I'm wearing New standards now. Check the page before this. I've also heard of several people on superfuture, mynudies who have had theirs ripped. Some guy posted a question about a ripped bootcut old on the nudiejeans Q&A.

That's why I never bothered buying them outside the US. Mattias responds very quickly and ships quickly.

I've seen plenty of people ripping their Nudies @ mynudies.com but they wore it very very 'hard.' I agree with talk_show that it will rip no matter what as long as you wear it like crazy.

yeah, hence why you shouldn't care about some rips...etc as long as the seams stay tight then I won't complain.
