- If you guys are watching this, then it is a good bet that you know Carl Murawski. He is one of my favourite TH-camrs with videos concentrating on good quality, solid men's style. A couple of weeks ago, carl did a little skit on buying a pair of selvedge denim jeans. It was pretty funny. And the thing is, it was just so damn well done. So on point.
Buying your first pair of selvedge jeans is a bit of a leap if you are coming from normal jeans. There are a load of questions that need asking and that need answering, so that’s what I’m about to do!
If you are about to take the leap into your first pair of selvedge denim jeans, check out our ever-evolving store list here:

Absolutely brilliant man! Thank you for taking the time to do this, you had me cracking up with the perfect cuts!
THE MAN!!!!
Haha, thanks Carl. Was super fun to make!
Can one or both of you touch on Wranglers rigid 13mwz jeans. They don't get any love, but I think they're still a very well made jean (still being made with US denim) and definitely an American staple. I'm curious what a pro like yourselves thinks of them.
@@andrewc9790 Their cheap 😂 Honestly I see why some people only wear them. I personally am just a Levi’s man from my childhood. The biggest con in my opinion is the pockets are two shallow
Just wanted to chime in and say that I’m so used to “reaction” videos being youtubers dunking on each other. This was both way more classy and informative. Nice collaboration!
Just found this gem. I mostly love denim for the myriad of textures and tones rather than for the fades. Makes me smile wearing different jeans and reminds me to simply have fun with my daily clothing choices.
And that’s the best way. Have fun.
Thanks for all the information on your channel mate. Have binged watched most of your videos now. Got my first pair of raw selvedge jeans today, edwin ed 55 rainbow, brand new off ebay for £80. Looking forward to breaking them in over the year. Take care 🙂
Nice! Such a good pair of get started with.
This was a very good piece as usual
Carl was hilarious
11:37: “direction that your denim has been woven in.”
Me: looks down at my duck canvas pants
“... both?”
Haha. That’s 1x1 weave. So no direction. Both. Either way. Beautiful fabric.
Fabulous detailed information about the whole current denim attraction/intoxication/obsession!
Appreciate the kind words 😊
Great fun...thanks Matt (and Carl).
One of the biggest shocks I had, moving to Ireland, is the “youth” love boot cut jeans here, especially worn with square toed slipons 🤨
😳😂 did you move to Ireland in 2001?
Great job! Very informative!
Thanks mate. Appreciate that.
As a jeans noob (if you put aside the fact that I've been wearing them for around 45 years, which is clearly irrelevant) I really enjoyed this. And I LOL'd on the FCUK boot cut comment - I've been saving a pair from around the time they discontinued them (2010?). Must be about time I started rocking them again... 🙂 What fascinates me most about this niche within our culture is that this level of geekery (and just in case that's misinterpreted, it's in no way a slur - I'm a software developer have been known as a geek for several decades) would never have developed until people were connected via the Internet. Subbed.
Thanks Graham. Appreciate it buddy. Geek is a fine way to put it. I think anyone with a passion for anything wouldn’t mind being labelled a geek in relation to whatever it might be. And you know what. Rock that bootcut if that’s what you’re into.
Big fan of your videos dude (and Carl's) keep it up. P.s on the mention of denim specific detergent, any European/UK brands you recommend or do you use a supermarket off the shelf detergent?
Love your rings too man! Can you do a video about vintage rings etc?
I am chatting to a dude in Mexico city right now, he has quite a collection. And I was thinking to try and do something with him.
Thanks, I learned a lot today ! 👍
You're welcome mate. Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Matt that was great. The perfect symbiosis. P.s. watched your vid on the Levi’s 1944 501 Perfect Imperfections release before Christmas....they were gone off the Levi’s website within a day, but a few pairs re appeared there in mid-Jan! So managed to get a pair! Got #18 of 101. They have a one sided red tab, the painted arcuate is upside down. Pocket bags in denim fabric. The only really disappointing things is that there is absolutely no way of identifying the denim as being Cone white oak! Doesn’t say on any of the tags or even on the little letter your get in the back Pocket. So the only way I know is by virtue of the small hand written tags inside with the pair number #18 of 101, which links it back to the Perfect Imperfections release.
Nice. I'd love to see some pictures. I guess that Levi wants to keep it as repro as possible... Back in the day they would have no label with the cone mills... But it's such a good buy. Will be one of the last release with white oak
@@CeeAreDee I’ll upload some pics to Instagram over the coming days and send you a link. Yeah a nice purchase. Pricey, but it was the ‘last of a dying breed’ thing that made me click ‘order now’! A bit of me wants to wear them, but the rational side of my brain is saying ‘do not touch’ and keep safe! We’ll see.
Thanks for the knowledge bro! 👍👍👍
Any time! Actually learned a lot of it from Carl 😂
I’m grateful for this video
You’re welcome.
Great video! 👏
Thanks Henri :)
I really enjoyed that video of Carl ,and your video too ,just one thing ,no one talk about the repair of the denim 😅 , big thanks I always enjoy your video ✌️
He’s done a video of repairs bro
Thanks Mohamed. Super happy you enjoy the vids. Lawrence is right. There is a video all about repairs.

Just realised that may have looked rude Mohamed, apologies if it did. The video is well worth a watch as always my friend.
Love the broken twill though ,not for any particular reason but out of personal preference for how it looks.
It does look vey nice, right.
@@CeeAreDee In my opinion, yeah broken twill looks great,feels really good.
How much should one account for shrinkage? I was going to cut mine a little at the tailor. I dont like it too bulky. Thanks!
Great video, nothing new there because you rock! But 25oz on a pair of Iron Heart jeans is perfect comfort, no problem whatsoever.
Love the video but might I ask why you haven't reviewed or talked about brave star selvedge
It's usa made with a few options using cone denim
I have 13.75 ounce denim jeans with cone selvedge
And a denim type III denim jacket with 15 ounce cone denim and I highly recommend getting either before there cone stock is all gone
Hey Christian. They actually get a mention on the video I've scheduled for Friday. But the reason ive not done a deeper dive is that they are almost impossible to get in Europe. The delivery options on the site are really discouraging for international customers which is really a shame. I'm super curious about them.
@@CeeAreDee we also need to look out for vidalia mills coming out with a left field collaboration
Matt's looking like Walter Sobchak in those glasses
Brilliant!
Cheers mate 🙂
Also bootcut cut won’t hold the cuff very well as the bottom is wider than the top so it won’t hold itself, if that makes any sense
Totally does. And youre right. Would make a little upside down flare shape. Weird.
Are there any selvedge bell bottom jeans?
Just grabbed my first pair of 21oz from brave star and they feel it! 32oz now thats insane must be like wearing carpet!! 😂
I have the 25oz Sumo III and it feels brilliant. I'm a bit scared to switch back to my 14/15oz Bravestars. Think anxiety will vanish when the temperature rises ;-)
Their 21oz is more comfortable than the lower weights for me. Jonathan, you'll be amazed at how soft they will get. Still breaking the 25oz ones, we'll see how it goes. So far a lot more time to break in than the 21oz.
I actually like that they come long, I'm a tall dude, but if they were too tall for me that's also feeding the tailoring industry for me to have them hemmed.
Very true.
Great video. My suggestion to you please.
Can you build an image! The theme of the subject is -“Rugged”.
What jeans
What jacket
What boots
What .....,,
Makes an image of a man “Rugged”.
Cheers Michael
Good plan Miki. Going to put that on the list.
Hola, disculpa que despierte este post, mi consulta: meterlos a la lavadora con centrifugado incluido o solo hasta el enjuague?
Sorry Carlos. My Spanish isn’t that good. What was it ?
@@CeeAreDee to wash jeans in the washing machine, does it hace to be a full cycle including spin?. Or are they taken directly from the rinse to hang?
Very good channel, by the way I see the videos that hace subtitles. Congratulacions!
Btw, the coin pocket is actually a watch pocket. What? You don’t have a pocket watch for your watch pocket? 😉
I’ve got a pocket watch. Too big for the watch pocket tho.
Dann finden Sie einen etwa kleiner. Sehr edel 😎
Naked and famous has a 40oz denim in the works
We no longer have need for knights.
Really... Guys are nuts 😂
No joke, they can only run the looms for like 20 minutes at a time.
Hey man, I am new in this selvedge raw denim scene and would be really grateful if you could point me on some online stores in EU which have good quality raw denims for fair price.
Hey! I'm a beginner as well and I got my first pair of selvedge denim from Benzak. They do really cool stuff also not too expensive. I have another pair which I bought from l'exception (French store). They have pairs from all kinds of brands. Edwin, Nudie, Naked and Famous... Let me know if it does help!
I like boot cut like levis 527
Boot cuts are making a come back for sure!
How far from "raw" is Levi's shrink to fit and Wranglers Rigid 13mwz???
Before the shrink. Levi’s are 100% raw. Even after the shrink they are 99.99% raw. As for the Wranglers. Not too sure. I don’t think they have any 100% raw jeans in the lineup at the moment sadly.
@@CeeAreDeeI could be very wrong, but if Levi's are considered raw prior to shrink, I'd think Wranglers "rigid" is as well but it's sanforized. I've seen some pretty awesome fades from them. But, from old guys who don't care and just wear them to death. Thanks!
@@andrewc9790 wrangler is a very different brand over here in Europe than the US for sure. It’s more of a fashion brand over here. we don’t have all of the models so I’ve never come across the rigid.
Sorry no idea who this Carl is, I will check him out.
His channel is like mine...if like, my channel worked out, could hammer up dry wall and rode a Harley.
Story of why Mexico produced big rings ??
What are big rings?
I'll put that in a q and a soon;)
Everybody wants to pretend like they didn't wear boot cut? Please. . . I went to the high school through the JNCO years. I had jeans with pockets large enough to carry a skateboard.
Haha. You and me both.
Boot cut? You don know from $#|+ until you wore bell bottom shrink to fit.
Where would one find them. I’m curious 🧐

Love roping
My inseam is 38 Hahaha
americana avengers
Assemble!
Your paying AT LEST double the price and you can't get the inseam measurement you want?😂
When you put it like that. We’re all nuts 😂😂
I like your videos, they have helped me out loads, but you need to cut down the length.
You know that thing that you do? That I really like? Well do less of it.
Sheesh.
Bahahaha. Brother 🤜🤛
The Friday vid is 12 mins. Short enough?
Bootcut jeans are great though. Skinny fits are the worst. I guess if ur into it it’s your thing. I personally can’t stand them.
Haha. Different fits for different folks
Skinny aka Rockstar jeans need to go.
