about the people who felt the need to insult nudie: their selvage jeans are great quality. they're not to expensive so the're well worth their money. they have a lot of different cuts and washes. the washes are in my opinion unnaturel so i would stay away from those. but their dry denim is great. and for the people who said it's not '' in '' anymore: they are not a fashion brand, and they still make quality jeans so you're pretty ignorant if you care that much and rather buy a crappy quality pair of jeans because the're '' in'' . as for the backpocket stitching: i agree it's horrible, but it's really easy to remove. so that should never be an argument not to buy those jeans.

as for acne: i like a few cuts and they are pretty cheap where i live. i do have my doubts about the quality......

i've recently seen them in a store for 110 euro, that's cheap considering a normal good quality jeans starts at about 150, this means i'm not including h&m, g-starr etc. etc. etc.

my girlfriend has a pair of the hex's -- i think theyre amazing.
as long as the cut is nice, the price is decent and they keep it simple i don't much understand how a jean can get 'over-done' or 'played-out.'
like faust noted...theres not much point in looking for innovation/originality points when its comes to jeans.
just keep the cut nice and avoid dumb decorations.

Acne jeans seem to be the most overpriced abroad company!!

Here in Paris, a pair of unwashed starts at 160 euros, all the way to 200 for distressed. I was shocked when i went to visit my gf in stockholm, as they were only around the 100 euro line over there! I ended up buying 3 pairs lol..

Today i kind of regret that though, since i have discovered Dior H jeans. They are truly the perfect skinny jean. Acne's are nice looking but as another guy mentioned, there is so little room in the front crotch area, its really quite unconfortable compared to DH skinnies. I tried on the Max ones the other day, they are almost like leggings which is kind of cool, but the crotch part was SO tight, my,um, package, was clearly visible !! It's like they are tailored for women !

So its back to DH only for me, they are real skinny yet so confortable, the tailoring is just truly genius, and of course the distress and stitching top class.

By the way, the hex do look STUNNING on my girl, i'd recommend every girl to try a pair... best skinnies ever..for women !

That is insane.. they barely cost what is equal to 1000 HKD here in Scandinavia...

Talking about huge markup
