8YE looks like a crappy version of 8RI. Again, why does Diesel feel the need to come out with variations of the same wash techniques... just re release the badass ones and work harder on releasing a few unique / new ones each season, try that shit out. I think they'd make a lot more money.
I actually kinda like 8WW, much more than any other distressed wash I've seen lately, especially the darker versions of 71J like 73J etc.
But I think you'd be better off finding a pair of Thanaz you love, wash + pockets, and fucking them up yourself.
Fuck screenprinted pockets. I love screenprinted textiles, but denim ain't the place Diesel.
I'm looking forward to getting 8WN.
I want Zatiny 8IW, 8YM and Safado 8dk, 72t (brown), 61e in 31x32.

8YE looked so bad it made me cry.
Do these Zafs make me look fat?

They're cutting of the bootleggers by making the fake jeans themselves.

The wash itself is top notch. If you took away the scratches it would be a bona-fide epic wash.

I should amend my prior comment - If you took away the scratches and holes it would be an epic wash.
It's really sad that there's not some kind of creative direction cop over at Diesel who could save great washes from being ruined by self-indulgent details or - ruined by being limited to just one or two outer-fringe cuts.

I think we'll see heaps of 8WW for half-price at Gilt by season's end.

re: 8WN, whoops. well 8WM doesn't yield any results either at this point.... hmm... the wait continues.
Any Zatiny fans as excited as I am about these? I must say though, gray washes seem more suited to straight legs than bootcut, so I'm not sure how I'll feel. Very good chance I'd be visiting my tailor with those.
I was this excited about Safado 8HU until I got a pair and realized how blatant the stitching patches were.

and pretty pricey too. Matic goes for £180. I think Thanaz is same price.
