Can't wait to get a pair..I want to keep a wallet in one of the pockets and get a nice square shape faded on em. It'd be awesome if I get this wallet and the big Diesel D becomes part of the jeans..hehe.

Do they make these jeans for women? and if so where?
I think the idea is really cool. I would love to see how my jeans would come out if I had a pair.

this is one of the main reasons for the prevelence of slim straight and or tapered legs amognst people who are heavily into dry denim.

, but will they stay that way after they are washed?

Yep, I think they will be faded and have some of the crinkles leftover but not as distinct as they are unwashed.

haha well wash maybe once every 4-6 months. but that type of fade can definitely not be reached in anything under a year from what i've seen.

yeah those jeans must be at least 2-2.5 years old. if all you do is walk around in them, it's going to be a long project

The Levi Vintage Collection, or better yet, a pair of Sugar Cane 501's will wear like that. That's actually the inspiration for Nudies and just about every other brand that makes dry jeans (APC, JR, etc.): a very well worn pair of 1947 era Levi 501's.
Oh, and for women, besides Denimbird, I'd suggest getting a pair of Earnest Sewns, they're available in Dry Selvedge in just about every cut (I'm personally breaking in a pair of men's Fulton one-rinse selvedges).
