^do these levis make everything blue???...i mean my dry nudie kims make most things blue....and when i wash my hands the water is blue....these must be a nightmare????????

[mildseven]

yes they do! I was leaning towards a white wall and after I got off the wall was blue-ish lol. But I guess it's slightly better now than when I first started wearing it.

[bull.flag]

any other place besides Levi.com to buy imprints? are these available in any stores?

Brand New


As a present




After 1-2 weeks of wear (approx 15min of wear everyday)
I dont know why the left pocket is faded more than my right cuz i put nothing on the left whereas i constantly put my wallet on the right. Anyways I do feel the colors are coming off abit too fast but I'll wear it hard for 6months or so and see how it turns out. Btw imo it fits very much like my tfds (31/34) except the leg opening is not as small.

I agree with b_F, fast fading denim is poor dyed (and that's one of the problems with Nudie e.g.).

But at least nudie is one of the brand who "opened" peoples eyes and also a good gateway to start for a young denim enthusiasts all around the world imo. thats what happened to me. if its not because of nudie, i won't know anything about the greatness of denim.

For anyone that owns a pair, can you comment on the sizing for me? I'm interested in buying a pair of Imprints as a quick fading fun little project. How would you recommend I go about sizing them? If my true waist is 34.5ish, should I size down to a 34 or size up to a 36? I've read that the waist might shrink after washing and I'm afraid of that happening. I'm also afraid that if I get the 36, they will be too baggy on my legs. I'm looking for a slim straight very similar to the SJDJ, which I'm hoping the 514 will offer me.
