No. But if anybody is at work making fakes of Dirty Thirty they're wasting their time. These things will be slangin' on Ebay for fake-level prices within days.

I do not foresee the value of NWT Dirty Thirty jeans dipping below $50 in a well-listed auction in the near future.

Yeah,
150 dollar profit? Sounds like a good deal.

How is everyone's Heeven/Matic stretching? I just got mine today and the Heevens are quite tight for being my Zathan size. I am wondering if they will stretch any. If not and someone wants to trade their 32 for a 31 let me know. Is this cut meant to be stacked too? I usually wear the 34 length, but these are 32 and come to about the bottom of my bare foot. I will most likely wear boots with them so I am not sure it matters.

I got mine today too in a 30

I'm going to need to try and find somebody with 29's that wants to trade otherwise I'm out of luck...

Or I might trade for some R&R taylor's

From all the varying accounts of tightness and/or normalcy with 8UJ I'm convinced that each pair is different. The 26W Matics that I sold measured about 14.25" flat, but I saw another 26W on eBay that measured an inch more than that.

The cut is meant to be stacked. Far as fit, I think these will stretch - I got them in my 71J size and the waist is a smidge on the tight side. Of course, yours could be strangling you. Dumb thought but maybe, just maybe, you should just seek out another 31W that measures on the larger side... if you catch my drift.

Oh I gotcha. Who knows how much I will wear them because mine hardly have a stack to them, but maybe when they stretch out I can try and sag them slightly. Oh well!

Don't they shrink again after the first time washing them?

wow, talk about inconsistency in fit/sizing.. That's what Diesel gets for trying out Romanian denim construction!

I think they did this not only to promote brand awareness, but also to see if anyone gives a crap about Diesel jeans not made in Italy to an extent. I don't have a ton of experience with non-Italy Diesels, but it seems in general that the sizing does vary alot more that Italy releases.

Has anyone successfully wet stretched the length on these yet? I am going to give it a whirl this evening.

yep. I've seen it done various ways. You get the bottoms of each leg wet and step on them and pull up and continue to work them. We aren't talking like huge length stretches but it does help. I saw a pic on another forum of a guy that hung a weight from each leg and was able to get a 10cm stretch.

I got my Matics yesterday and I'm sort of let down. They really don't live up to the hype IMO. They definitely feel cheaper than normal Diesels, plus the wash doesn't wow me. I'm keeping them becasue they are Matics and they fit well, but I wouldn't have paid a dollar over $60 bucks.

Same they are so loose from the knee down its baggy and doesnt look how matics should fit. The denims also really thin and looks like it would rip, not what i thought they would be. Im still gonna keep them though.

The fact that they don't fit like regular Matics is probably why I like them. But I wouldn't have paid over 50+ tax either.

These don't fit like regular Matics?

The xXx don't fit like reg Matics? How so?

This is my first pair of matics-I've never even tried on a pair before this b/c I'm not a fan of the butt crack-rise (however these are a 7 inch rise so they're not so bad), but can someone please, in the detail oriented form that I've come to love and expect from HF, outline the ways in which the xXx matics don't measure up to regular matics?


Thank you

N

Maybe this should be it's own thread.

The difference between them are:
From the knee down they are not as slim so they are more baggy in the calf than on regular matics, normal matics are more fitted and skinny from the knee down, not like the XXX ones. Also the denim on matics is normally stretch and if its rigid its more durable and comfy than the XXX denim. I find on these XXX ones the rise is a bit higher than on normal matics and just normal matics seem to be cut slimmer all over.

^I actually kinda like the fit of these. I like that the pockets aren't halfway down my ass and the fit on the legs is actually pretty flattering, BUT...

I struck out twice! My particular pair is too tight AND too short! And I just can't get past the sperm, either. I guess I will be selling...

Man, that would be a job....having to sperm on each pair. Think about the manufacturing process for this pair.

Heeven has an ovum and Matic has a sperm so when you get both of them together it forms a Diesel conception and rebirth.

It's actually supposed to be a birthday balloon though.
