Findings - Levis bootleg dark jeans

Back Pocket Slim Boot leg cut 507 Jeans  in clean Coated denim from Levis.

WHY: well first of all its Levis and with the respect to all other million jeans makers nowadays...it all started with Levis. but for me the catch was the fit, i love Bootleg with slim waist and hips fit and i think it is the most manly fit a guy can have on...especially with boots (hence the style name). I also like as far as color either a raw denim or a real dark blue wash like these, its much more sophisticated it can be dressed up more nicely than a washed jeans and i rather let the pants get worn and washed from use (by me off-course) than pretreated. I also like the back pocket with the zipper and  the leather string (although i will admit from wearing them the last 2 weeks the leather strings did not last and eventually i lost them...). in short my last pair of jeans that i bought was the Nudie and in the last God only knows how many years i made and still making my own jeans cause it was really hard to find the perfect jeans i had in mind....so I'm glad Levis thought so too and with the addition of a reasonable price tag (as oppose to other trendy jeans line that are $200 and up) it makes them into a great FIND!

INFO: Back and front pockets with a deeper scoop give this slimmest boot-cut

My style Journal - Week one

Ever since I can remember I loved clothes and enjoyed dressing. Eventually, this led me to a career as a fashion designer. Over the years I developed my own individual style. To describe it in words will not do it any justice since, literary descriptions are not my strongest skill (and here I am writing a blog and expecting you to read it, ha?). But since my goal in creating this blog is to inspire you to discover and develop your own sense of style and create your own unique voice I feel that the best way is to lead by example. Therefore I was looking for a creative way to communicate my style to you (after all, I will first need to gain your trust in my credibility before I can suggest and advice you). Well, unfortunately the idea I came up with is not as creative as I hoped for but it’s definitely one that will get my point across and hopefully will inspire you the same way others out there inspire me. So today I am starting my style Journal where i will post a weekly photo with my favorite outfit of the week for your review….. I highly encourage you to leave your feedback and would love to hear your thoughts and input …whether it's good or bad! Cause recognizing what you like and what not is the first step in building your new wardrobe, I hope you’ll enjoy it and hopefully together we will inspire others…..

Dry and raw....yet soooooo beautiful

I love denim, it is one of my favorite fabrics to wear and to design with, yet I haven’t bought a pair of new jeans in forever and the reason is that for the last 10 years I just did not like any of the jeans in the market.…. The denim market had a great run especially in the premium market but with all the million developments of different washes, stitches, and styles the classic cool looking denim that I like disappeared from the shelves. Luckily for me I made my own jeans for years and waited….. About 4 years ago while in a department store looking for a jeans for my wife my eyes landed on these beautiful pair of RAW denim, they were dry, heavy and stiff like a cardboard, the fit was tight and almost uncomfortable, the price was sky rocking ($275)…… but man these jeans LOOKED GOOD! It was a pair of Nudie! This Italian brand has a real true passion for denim with inspiration drawn from everyday’s life, they use Japanese denim that ages beautifully, their raw denim is to be wore for at list 6 months before its first wash to let the body form its shape by letting the body oils and everyday life settle in the fabric and form into a second skin. There are about 13 different fits on their line from the slim “Thin Finn” to the looser “Easy Emil” in different washes but my favorite is the classic 5 pockets “Regular Alf” in a dry selvage denim, it’s a bootcut that can be worn tight (the way I like it) or baggy. For a clean and sharp look pair those with slick button down shirt and dressy shoes or for a cool and easy look add boots and a worn T….
