What Diesel are you wearing today? - Page 834

Hi Lee, hope your hols are going well.

Well best if you find a cafe or pub with an open wifi. I use my email in box and click the link on a Denim Blog notification to come direct here.

But using phone it only allows you to put a url link up for a photo. So upload your photos to facebook and get the link, then put it in Denim Blog. I've just done a screen shot off my phone in that manner to illustrate it can be acheived as under:

An experiment in double denim. Not sure if I like...

Thavar 801C

Diesel T

G-Star Jim Smart Shirt

Diesel Kunha Boots

baltimore, no shit... those are too good to be true

LITERALLY THE BEST DARK WASH ON THIS PLANET.

but im afraid those cost too much cuz you know, MIJ and prolly japanese denim too. they can cost a fortune!! two thumbs up for the best dark wash anyway!!

if you keep showing off your fit pics of those, one day i won't be able to hold myself from getting them lol

Marcus I wonder if there's a group buy!?!?! man Baltimore that pair is too delicious....

Today wearing not as cool but still loved, DBG 8ML.

Back in the States...

Thavar 888P

Allsaints Kenmore shirt

Oqer tee

i recieved my Thanaz 885V yesterday.

with a tank top

not an epic wash like 8GZ or Baltimore's 8BT

how do you guys think 'bout the fit?

Since you seem to be one of the only, if not the only, guy to have these exact jeans on here, I have two questions about care/fading (just got these in yesterday from Yoox):

1. Does the black rub off on other surfaces and do I have to be careful what I sit on while wearing them?

2. To what degree does the black "coal" layer come off in the wash and the jeans "fade" to the dark blue color underneath?

Thanks.

lee, they look way better IRL!! the back pockets are  smaller than thanaz's from earlier seasons (i mean 06/07/08) and i like them that way. HUGE back pockets make your butt look terrible lol

baltimore, i ordered them a month ago and i made the same mistake as you did. i gave Cultizm the wrong address so i received them yesterday... pretty happy with them tho. but you can never compare them with your DBG. they're killers

I have Krooley 8v4...

To your questions:

1. No, you don't have to be careful on what you sit

2. you shouldn't wash any diesel jeans...and if you have to, then 30 degrees or handwashed. not more. 8v4 is a wash which does not loose much of its spirit after been washed a few times. nevertheless still looks better unwashed:P

Thanks. Other than a few pairs of "beater" jeans, I wash my jeans very infrequently. When I do have to clean my nicer ones, I tend to stick to dry cleaning. However I don't wear my jeans for anything gross, and if I only send my suits to the cleaners once a year then I don't see any harm in doing the same with my jeans.

My biggest concern was the potential for an $80 pair of jeans to ruin a $1,500 sofa. However I was also curious about the black coming off because I once had a pair of Diesels with a dirty clay-like substance applied to give them a vintage look and that came off in the wash...

i have 884c. but trashed them already i think the only thing they have in common is the label on the ass. i kindda like that. for anything else, 885v is way better!! more rigid, and the wash is cooler too. if you're seeking for a pair of basic everyday jeans, do not go for 884c... they'll kill your dream lol. 885v is better!!!!!!!!!!!!

thavar 805q is the only one left on my wish list for this season. the fade look really sick!!! man i gotta have those when they are on sale. i'll prolly have to wait

hah!! imagination always works for ya when you're deciding whether to buy something or not :P but actually i have a concern, i wonder if i'm doing the butterfly style training, will my legs grow too strong for thanaz/thavar ??

thanks for the confidence on me:) i wanna be one hell of a monster:P i was really afraid of fitness training will kill my diesels lol
