Dior raw 19s and 21s - have vanity sizing and are labelled as two sizes smaller than actual size

Edwin Nashvilles - size down 1" - quite a different fit to most jeans out there though (massive rise, loose at thigh and comparitively tapered at the leg).

Anyone ordered any jeans from Gustin?
If so, how much did you get stung for import duty/VAT?

Anyone picked these up?

£35 for a pair of chainstiched, selvedge raws
just wanna see how they fit

think you'll find its the other way round gbh

certainly not for me as the 2 pairs of slps i've owned have been much better than all the dhs i've bought over the years. with that said i'd advise anyone to steer clear of last season's black pairs in 16 and 17.5, proper shit.

^ sorry if they're what you've just pulled the trigger on toomuchcoffee

makes me feel a bit uneasy when jeans sit on shoes like this;
need to be at least 3 inches longer, looks better with a bit of stacking so they're not straight down. not saying you have to go full hedi DH with the stacking…

End?

my thoughts exactly. but with everyone commenting on how it's "better" or "the same". got me thinking if that's just a bad stock pic. maybe?

This whole Hedi stacking thing is bollocks anyway, majority of his runway collections have the jeans cut right and not stacked and he even wears his not stacked. Was only a few style shots/runway shots that ever had ridic stacking.

It all really depends of the the shoes/outfit that is worn as to wether stacking looks good IMO. Stacking with a trainer/hi top can look good but the jeans have to be cut perfect, way to many wibbly wobbly stacks out there. Stacking with more formal outfits/shoes looks off and messy, it really all depends on the footwear and the rest of the outfit but most stacking looks shit. Nothing wrong with having you jeans cut right. I get mine altered and cut all for specfic footwear Im going to wear them with. Some are longer some a little shorter depending on footwear.

Im so over stacking. Going dead level now. Changed my leg length purchases from 32 to 30

I also hate having jeans hemmed now as well. Reason ive stopped buying apc. If they dont come in 34/30 i dont buy.
