Those are some levis jeans my mother brought for me(told by her it was some slim fit) it's those jeans which doesnt stretch at all. im really interested to get a nudie. but im kind of lost between a TF,a GT and a SJ. My actual waist size is 33. im actually looking for something around that fitting but a tigher fit around my thighs and calf. (but not something as tight as a skinny jeans.)

picture is with a Leg opening of 7inches.

Can u gets help me. I'll provide u with any additional information if needed. I cant get down to my locate store and try as they do not have actual stocks. :( HELP ME PLEASE :roll:

Easy, go to a shop that sells Nudies and try some on for size. Problem solved mate :) Just remember that if you're getting raw denim with lycra/elastane in them you'll want to start pretty tight on the waist, cause they'll stretch out like a bitch eventually.

Other than that there's really no other risk-free way to get a perfect fit IMO

Read the whole post starscream ;-)

If you're looking for just a slim fit, then I'd say a Slim Jim would be your best bet. It will be tighter around the thighs than most Levis, but doesn't have the skinny look that the TF and GT have. If you do like the tapered leg, try the Grim Tim (the thighs are the same on both fits). A 32 waist seems like it would work fine.

I did man! But still it's hard to get that perfect fit that you want without trying some pairs for size... Well IMO at least.

Very true, but sometimes it's just impossible to find stores that sell Nudies in some places (I know I've never gotten to try a pair on).

I guess yeah... Totally agree dude :)

@kmart: what do u mean by the thighs are same on both fits.? which one are u talking about? im looking for something slim fit to the tighter side. maybe like a GT? but slim jim's leg opening is huge.

@starscream92: Im getting those online which is very troublesome due to it's all guess work atm till i actually order the jeans and try it out. if it doesnt fit i'll have to ship it back. which means i'll need to wait longer before i can actually wear my nudies.


Anyway do u guys have size chart for GT's? all i have is this: http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/8160/nudiefits.jpg


How true is it? i was told by my friend that if i were to get a TF in size 32. It'll slowly stretch into a Slim fit after some time.? Which doesnt make it looks so skinny.:?:

Hm, in THAT case, go with the GT. What I meant by that was that the GT and SJ are very similar, except for a few key differences: the GT has a button fly and a slightly smaller leg opening.

I wouldn't get TF if I were you, a 32 would be way too tight (probably not the fit you're looking for).

I got mine. They are fcuking tight. I can barely close the top button. I guess theyll stretch a lot, tho.
I have 32 in GTDDO and in this one I got a 31. I think they are cut about the same.

Both are Exact same models i was interested in. after reading that i felt really lost again. Are there any actual difference? eg. Stretch, comfort and sizing?



If u could also help me:

He just said it, there is no real difference. The only reason they were tight is because he sized down from his other pair. :-P

Size 32: Waist 43 cm, LO 19cm front rise 25 cm according to nudies webshop. I had Finns, Jims and Tims and wore one size smaller in GT/SJ as in Finns. Finns are a tad tighter at the thighs, but come with stretch material. The SJ and the GT are mostly 100% cotton


Should i down size to 31 or stick to 32 as GT doesnt stretch at all since it's 100% cotton

Nah they still stretch, roughly 1 size.

so do i actually downsize if im looking for something slim? rather then it being loose.

starscream92
28th March 2011, 06:07
I haven't had any experience with 100% cotton jeans (i.e. absolutely no stretch material whatsoever), but 100% of my experience tells me by gut to always downsize at least once when it comes to dry denim. And Friedrich seems to agree with me ;)

damn damn damn. gotten an idea from some person that if i were to get a TF in actual waist size it'll be similar to a down-ed sized GT. How true is it? saying it'l be due to a TF being able to stretch more compared to a GT. Gosh having a headache buying my first nudies without getting a chance to try them out. =/

Relax man it'l work out :p Id recommend the GTDDO or DRS because they're great pairs. As far as the stretching goes as compared to the TF id say GTDDO (no experience from DRS) stretches a bit more but my TF still stretched a lil' bit, maybe up to one size. Questions?

why don't you order more than one pair and send the non fitting pairs back? Easiest and safest way.

Lostsoul

maybe up to one size. Questions?

O.o so i'll need to up a size? but im actually looking for something tight(but not skin tight). my true waist is around 33-34. im considering 32 or maybe 31.
what do u think?

Im not buying online.(or maybe i should) i have a local store in my country but i cant try out the jeans there as they only have a few pairs and they arent my size. what they do is they'll help u order a pair if u want a nudie. which is really f***ed up. :(

No man what he meant by "up to one size" is for you to actually downsize by, at the most, one size. The GT isn't exactly a skinny-fit, so I guess when you downsize once on that fit you'll get the non-skin-tight tight look you're looking for, instead of its factory slim-fitting fit. IMO at least.

If I may, where do you live, Lostsoul? Cause depends on where you live, ordering online from, say, Cultizm.com can easily save you US$50-US$60, even after shipping costs. And with that said Cultizm.com is known for its (most of the time) user-friendly return policy, compared to many other stores they're pretty much more superb at that.

I am a true 33 and wear/ wore:

32 or 31 in SJ (got a 33, too, but the SJDJ stretched like crazy. It's def. not slim)
32 in GT
33 in pre-washed TF, so probably 32 in raw, too.

Maybe this helps.

I live in Malaysia. Close to Singapore. So it'll be more recommended that i buy Cultizm.com. As far as i know they're have an offer now which is free shipping. but im really unsure of the return policy. maybe i'll go read it up. :cool:

Hi, I'm at work right now and can't take pictures, and I don't own the GT anymore. It was a GT dry Dirt Organic. The TF is a pre wash called Black Weft. Prewashed Models run approx. 1 size smaller in waist, so I think that the waist on both was pretty much the same. But the Tims had a wider thigh and tapered stronger, the Finns are tighter from the beginning, but stretch more. IMO the Tim's fit is a golden one, not too tight and not too straight.

Sure post pics when u knock off from work. :wink: I dun want my Tims to look really really loose. i want to to be a little tight at my calfs. Alot of ppl say Tims are similar to carrots. haha. I want my Tims to similar or a little tighter then the pictures i posted of my current jeans. Do u think a size 32 will do it or i'll need to get a size 31?

if you're a true 33? A 32 will be a slim, yet comfy fit. A 31 will be skinnier, maybe hard to buttton, but will stretch out with time. i just don't want to walk around every day with tight jeans, that hurt my sensitive parts. It's up to you to decide :-P
