The 5 key points to achieving this are:
Denim Weight: 0:01:27

Am I high or did this video not discuss the best selvedge denim for beginners
Nope! 😂
i wish they brought the dislike button back
😂 Love your content big fan!
I have a tip when it comes to fit, not only for jeans, but all mass-produced clothing, including footwear. The fabric for jeans is cut in piles by a machine so the pattern pieces vary in size. Then the pieces are sewn together, adding more variation. So when you go to buy a pair of jeans take as many in your size as you can and try them all on. If you want to be thorough take some in a size larger or smaller, especially if you are an intermediate size. This is especially useful with shoes. It drives the shop staff mad, especially when I take the right shoe from one pair and the left from another, but I end up with footwear that actually fits.
Mate. I’d never thought of that but you’re totally right. That could have a lot of do with it. Good suggestion
I bought a pair of Naked and Famous selvedge jeans of Nordstrom Rack for $20! It was a 14.5oz, the fit is perfect, and I love them as a starter pair into the denim world 😍
THAT is a steal!
Damn! That is an amazing find!
Dude, that’s crazy cheap!
Lmfao. I remember finding some cheap ones at a Macy’s or something a while back and decided against buying it because the logo looked weird.
Way to go Dude!
Whoa just watched your old series on getting into selvedge denim and then clicked on this video. Your videos have come a long way production wise; way to go dude.
Thanks buddy. Appreciate you saying that
love your content!! always super informative
I appreciate that! Cheers for the support, Andrew :)
Literally just got my bravestars in the mail. Great stuff!
Nice, happy with them?
Great video, always enjoy your style.... great to see Benzak on your list, not enough is said about those guys, the B-01 are some of may favourite denim, crisp fades and have take to sashiko repairs rather than retiring them; that's got to tell you something! I think Hiut deserve an honourable mention nice modern cuts and good ethos.. their non selvedge is great value too!
Good call! Yeah Benzak is one brand I really admire. Been a fan right from the start. With the Huit. I really try to have had my hands on the jeans at least once before I make a call on them. adly I have never seen Huits... hope that will change soon.
Yeaaaaaa budddyyyyy! Look forward to the vids all week bruh! 🔥
More to come! Need to write the script for tomorrow but feeling lazy 😂
I recently came across on a pair of second-hand Tellason’s. I had never heard of the label prior and when I tried them on, I wanted to just get rid of ALL my denim jeans! It just fit like the perfect glove and very, very high quality craftsmanship. The 511 Levi’s have always been my standard and my first pair of selvedge were Evisu’s I purchased at Herrod’s in London, which yes, were very hard to “break in”. These Tellasons are a perfect gateway to the more prestigious selvedge, hard break-in quality denim to get the feel of that coveted aged patina on high quality denim
New to this and have been learning via trial and error about fit (thanks Ebay). First Ebay selvedge (Taylor Stitch) taught me the importance of back rise. After figuring out what fits me specifically, I bought some brand new Grim Tim Dry Selvage based on your recommendation. Love them so far. Did the first soak based on your other vid. Thank you for your expertise! Been appreciating the knowledge you bring to the table.
Takes a little time to dial in your fit. I had the same. I found I’m much better with a higher rise. Thanks for the kind words mate.
I got a pair of GAP "selvedge" jeans, and they fit pretty good. This was before I really got into selvedge. I look inside the tag and it says "made in China". So then I started my quest to find really good selvedge denim. Its been 3 years, and now I have a pair of "Big John's", Momotaros, and "Bravestars". Surprisingly the GAP jeans have some decent fades now.
Just got my first pair of raw selvedge jeans last weekend. Momotaro 0605-SP. Maybe on the higher price end for a first pair, but they really are FANTASTIC so far
That is a NICE pair to start with!
Just starting to think about raw denim…great info thanks!
Welcome to the fold.
Great picks! I would add Unbranded or Naked and Famous as well
I just ordered the BraveStar “Mystery Jean” (it’s not my first pair of selvage jeans), can’t wait to see what the surprise will be!
So they send you a surprise?
@@CeeAreDee yes, you pick the cut and size, but the fabric is a total surprise. It’ll be interesting to see what they send me
Shockoe Atelier is near my home town in VA. Like a 20 min drive going 85 in a 70. I meet with the owners (very lovely people) and got some stuff made for me before hitting the market. There’s always a bit of magic about something when it’s made close to home
Very cool! I have heard a lot of good things about those guys and interviewed them for Rope Dye back in the day. Seemed like nice hardworking folks.
Edwin wins hands down, the Ed 55 is my favorite fit universal suits all shapes, Ed 80 also nice, shop around, there's bargains about at the moment, I bought a brand new pair of Ed 55 from an eBay seller, £50 including post brand new with tags. They arrived today, delighted 👌
That is a good deal... Yeah, kinda lost touch with Edwin recently but they used to be one of my favourites
Ahh I remember my first pair of Selvedge .. DENHAM "Razor Slim Fit Jeans " ..... the first cut is always the deepest!
But what a fantastic journey! - Great content as always
Candiani
I think it was a toss up between the Razors and a pair of RRLs... I think the Denhams were a better choice tho.
My first pair of selvedge denim is an unbranded UB401 and I love them! I might recommend the UB101 to most people as the only reason the 401's fit me so well is because I am stick thin, but they are priced so unbelievably well it's silly! RHT, 14.5oz denim, sizing all written out for every fit, well priced plain old indigo jeans, if you're looking for a 'regular' pair of jeans they really do work well.
As a fellow stick figure thanks for the suggestion lol.
I want to try their relaxed taper, but 32" is too short.
for some denim heads that think they know it all its still good to look back at the start and regain knowledge like in what this video talked about this video isn’t for beginners its for all who have had raw and are interested in raw selvedge denim
or*^
Fran, I appreciate that. Thank you.
My way into raw denim was full of mistakes too. The very first pair I got was a left-hand twill 21oz skeleton skinny by Norse Projects. It started to fade incredibly fast, but it was also due to the fact it was way too tight.
Ooft, yeah, that will be uncomfortable. Must have looked great after a while tho!
Love RRL from Ralph Lauren. Can’t beat them.
What would be a good fit for a guy that is 5ft9 and 210 lbs? Many times I feel that jeans are too skinny for my body shape.
I was a welder by trade, so I love denim a LOT. I just got a pair of Gustin jeans and I love them! They fit me like a glove and I love it. 💘 oh good, I was wondering if they'd shrink too much and not fit me once I wash them. They're the perfect fit right now. I don't sweat, so I don't wash my denim often. I find it just degrades them. I also am doing shasheiko to repair my old pairs of regular jeans. I get frustrated when all the rack regular jeans have knee holes, well I have oddly long thighs and those holes are way too high. I don't want pre worn in jeans I want to do that myself. I also find men's jeans fit me better. I'm very thin so I don't need all the added curves they put in womens jeans.
Anyways, got a pair of Gustin jeans for $58! I love thick thick jeans. When they break in, they're heavenly!
love your channel, what shirt are you wearing? Love it?
Best & recomended raw denim for beginner/newbie is uniqlo selvedge jeans 👍
What are the top Japanese denim brands?
Great stuff...love your videos but unfortunately can't afford to buy a pair of selvedge jeans
You can get some great ones for under $100. Even less if you are lucky and find one second hand.
Which jeans cloth is best when it comes to washing without fading its colour?
And also tell me the brands with affordable prices.
Thankyou

@@CeeAreDee Are selvedge jeans not fading its colour even though if we wash 2 to 3 times per month?
What are your thoughts on Kato?
Just got a TCB 30s type 1 jacket for my first, I really want to get some naked and famous MIJ7s sometime soon.
NICE! TCBs are amongst my favourites right now.
What is your opinion on APC selvedge? Nice video btw!
Hmmm. They are not that great. You are paying a lot for the name. For that price there are far better options.
How about the Levi STFs?
Would be highly appreciated if you could also pick out some denim for us European folks, dont really want to pay customs fees to import the denims listed above
Benzak is based in the EU :)
Bravestar selvedge. Everything made in the USA with some Japanese denim for only $98. You aren’t going to beat that. Only brand I’ll buy.
Everyone I have spoken too that has a pair loves them. They seem to do a great job.
My experience differs greatly. I bought several and thought i was a fan until the seams on the outside of the legs didn’t hold up to 1 month’s wear and the company completely ghosted me. Which is weird because they responded to my emails when i was considering the purchase. But when there’s a problem, they will not help you.
3sixteen!!! Go! 😊
Isn't Levis stf compulsory, for the maiden pair? They are the true original jeans after all...
Yeah, I see your point... but there are just so many possibilites out there these days.
Would you recommend selvedge jeans for guys over 50? Or, will this look like I am trying to look younger than I am?
Selvedge is just a mark of manufacturing quality, age means nothing, go grab a pair
Currently breaking in a pair of Billy Reid 10oz as my 3rd pair. My Gustins for some reason NEVER faded. Wore them guys for 10 months like 4 days a week and nothing but a wallet fade and a crotch blowout.
10oz, that is a nice weight. Guess the fades are a little more vintage?
@@CeeAreDee it’s even better considering Alabama is hot like 90% of the year! And I’m not quite sure yet. I wear them about 4 days a week and I’ve only got a slight knee fade on the right leg from where I prop my other leg.

I started with Edwin ED-45 for 150€ and went on to Bravestar. They are not the most perfect fitting jeans, but on the budget site. I just slimmed the waist in my own (if i can). But next I'd like to reach out for the more superior stuff ;-) It's just not justified, until I've worn out all the other pairs...
Very true. I have way too many jeans that sadly dont get worn
I tried clicking on your links in the description and i got "Page Cannot Be Found".
Those glasses look great on you. Which frames are those?
Those are ace and Tate. Kinda bargain basement but still nice and good quality.
@@CeeAreDee well regardless of price they fit your face perfectly.
For first pair of selvedge jeans what do recommend Edwin ED55 or Benzak B-03?
Thanks
Theses ones for sure. benzakdenimdevelopers.com/collections/jeans/products/b-03-tapered-13-oz-indigo-selvedge?ktk=UEdKczZRLWE1OGQwNDA2MTQ1
@@CeeAreDee Thanks a lot for your help
Question. Looking for a selvedge Jean that WON'T fade quickly. I love deep blue Jean. I do prefer a zipper. I wear slim straight in Uniqlo selvedge which fits well. Don't want slub, but looking for a jean with personality. Thanks
Great info dude
Appreciate it!
yo, any recommendation for white selvedge denim? what brand. thanks
From personal experience the only ones I have worn are the Benzak’s. benzakdenimdevelopers.com/collections/jeans
I had an eat dust jacket that was totally sick too and it was the same denim as their jeans.
@@CeeAreDee thanks mate. ive checked the link and am not sure if its white. in my screen the color looks like egg white. or leaning towards light dust. but thanks heaps.
@@allgamestotal6773 yeah. When I think white denim I think ecru. Which is natural cotton. For white denims that are selvedge. I’m not too sure.
💪🏽💪🏽
:)
The story of Japanese denim is fun
It’s a good one.
I get my jeans slightly loose around my waist
They’ll probably last a bit longer that way.
@@CeeAreDee its the most comfortable for me, I just require a belt to make it work
Please can you review these ?
Herzlich willkommen bei Montana Jeans-Hamburg
Wouldn't Unbranded be a good way to dip your toe into the Selvedge Denim Jeans world for the first time?
Certainly. They make good jeans.
I think I want to try to get into this lifestyle.
I can only recommend it
Who is 'we'?
It's the Royal "We" ;)
@@CeeAreDee Years ago was leaving a job and and during that afternoon I was giving salutations to colleagues I'd likely not see again. I stopped by the cubicle of this beautiful older nurse, with a personality of gold, on whom I had a crush. After a bit of chat she ultimately gave me the perfunctory, "We are going to miss you," and all I could think at the time was, 'who is "we", fuck them, what about YOU?' lol
english speakers also have a version of "jain":
"yesn't"
picture is worth a thousand words, and you don't have a single picture
Yeah. But there’s a couple of thousand words there, so that’s at least two pictures.
Here's my advice. Buy preowned. Let the other guy pay retail. There's plenty out there barely, if at all, broken in. Save money.
yeah, you can get some great deals that is true.
i'm not a denim head, i'm tired subscription and cheap garbage, i want quality items. i don't care if it costs more if creates jobs and commerce and lasts
🙏🏻👍🏻
Skinny fit all the way lol.
Who knew that hipsters were good for anything?! The denim market that the emo kids broke is finally getting fixed.
We’re good for all kinds of things.
