18oz - Big Slub Selvedge - Super Guy
Naked & Famous - Big Slub Selvedge - Super Guy
We can never pass up slub. It's the thing about Japanese denim that we never knew the name for and could never quite put our finger on until Naked & Famous opened our eyes to its wonders. It's the easiest, and best-looking fade you can get if you want that contrast. It also looks damn good throughout the entire break-in process due to those uneven slub yarns they use in the raw material stage. There are no dull days with this kind of fabric. They've stepped this pair up to an Elephant weight (their heaviest weight series, if you're not already familiar). Normally they only come out with denim this heavy once a year, but we've been lucky enough to get a full-blown, starchy, crunchy, fade-competition-worthy pair at the start of the year. The price is also impeccable for denim this weight. This fabric is actually a reissue from their very first line in 2008. This year is somewhat of a victory lap for N&F as they celebrate their 15th. It was an extremely popular denim back then, and it's bound to be the same all these years later.

Fit Notes: Tommy is wearing a size 33 in the Super Guy Fit. In recent years, he's decided to go for comfort over fit. And ultimately, this denim breaks in so nicely and shapes to your legs no matter what waist size you choose. That's the beauty of it. These seem to have a little more room due to the weight, but we still recommend buying at least one size up. Tommy is 5'10", 170lbs with a 33-34" waist.
*The Super Guy is a skinny fit with a medium rise, a slim top block, and a taper from knee to hem.*
Apparel
In our tenure, we've never carried a sandal or a slide. Nothing ever really spoke to us until this plain weave denim version. The wonderful manufacturers at Malibu have taken what looks a lot like elongated belt loops and created an incredible woven upper to go with their proprietary 3-piece outsole unit wrapped in Natural Malaysian Crepe gum soles. This particular denim is likely the same they use for the 105 and 107 models as it's woven on a machine that can only make 50 meters a day - nice and slow like orSlow likes it. This is an elevated slide for us. It's something you can wear around the house if you like but is meant to be worn on the streets. It's a blend of "our" world with denim and crepe soles and a world we haven't previously dipped our toes in. And this one feels a heck of a lot like the 2-year wash we love so much (we're certain they used a very similar process). The combo creates something incredibly unique that really has us buzzing.

03-7058-61 - Hawaiian Short - Black
It's very rare that we get a pair of shorts in the shop. orSlow is one of the only brands we're willing to grab them from. Of course, we had to grab the green version of these. It's a staple. They fit a lot like the fatigue you know and love, just with a little less leg. They're gonna be perfect for the heat we're bound to experience this Summer. You can't wear pants 365 days a year, so for those other days, orSlow's shorts definitely come in handy.
The New Yorker silhouette from orSlow is an easy-to-wear casual style with an elastic waistband. This time around they've been cut with a military ripstop fabric which could not be a more perfect fit for orSlow. The sumi black steps them up to a whole other level. There's such a lack of black shorts on the market, and these solve that problem. This ripstop is beautifully textured while staying breathable - a perfect mix of tech fabric and heritage design.
These bad boys were a shot at nostalgia for us. They bring us right back to the 90s. After we got the jacket, we couldn't stop ourselves with the pants. You can do a full coverall painted kit if you want. And this time, we really wanted the paint splatter. We had such good luck with the first round of these, we thought, "Why not give it a shot?" And they're done so tastefully that they become a pant everyone wants to rock. These have all of the classic features including that left-hand loop for your hammer and a slot on the right for many other tools. The massive pockets and subtle arcuate only add to the wonderfully fun nature of these pants. And, they're soft as all get out. This is a true workwear fit with enough room to do almost anything.
