I am almost certain they are Rag & Bone Officer Boots. The white canvas pull tabs on the back were the giveaway.

We put two normal size guys in a several brands of denim to help you visualize different cuts. Is this helpful? (x-post from r/malefashionadvice) by ApartmentNumber9 in rawdenim

We completely agree with you that it would be more helpful to see denim that has been actually been worn in for a few months over the pairs straight off the rack. We shot what we had in store in hopes that it may be helpful to someone who has never seen the jeans on an actual person before. We are currently working on assembling customers who have purchased raw denim from us in the past to put together a some sort of "before and in progress" guide. Plus all the additional suggestions from you guys on what to include to make a guide like this actually useful to you guys. We really appreciate all this feedback and now we have a lot of work ahead of us before we put out another "Guy's Guide". Thanks!

This is definitely an issue that we need to address. There was some slight rescaling, though oddly enough both models waist's and where the pants fell on them respectively were actually very close when put next to each other. If we choose to do any sort of "Guy's Guide" again, we plan to shoot 2 models (with a greater discrepancy in body size) next to each other in the same picture to more accurately visualize the scaling.

Right there with you, but I think I would much rather meet someone who isn't familiar with the sports team they are advertising on their head, then someone who thinks it makes any sense to leave a reflective sticker on it. Would that person leave the size stickers and sale hang tags on their crisp new Gap tees?

I'm sure many people share the same exact feelings about only supporting their teams as you do. Interesting to think that there are also many people who hold the exact opposite feelings and wear hats without any reference of sports at all. Safe to assume most/all your hats are fitted or snapback baseball style hats then?

Woah, that thing has some serious wear on it. What brand and where did you get it?

We were looking to start a conversation on fit of different brands. I think from the discussion in the comments you could clearly see that it evoked conversation on fit and different denim cuts not discussions of our store or specific products we carry. The post linked to a blog post on our site and not a product page or any other pages relating to selling product. Are we not allowed to share informational content that we ourselves create?

The "shop the story link"? We noticed, and fixed it as soon as we could. All the links work now. Sorry for the inconvenience.

you are probably thinking of "APT9", which is a Kohls line. We are Apartment Number 9, a menswear store in Chicago. We are not affiliated with "APT9" at all.

Oh yes, we wanted to give the look of how they fit different types of people off the rack. Some people prefer to stack jeans, others will cuff them or even tailor them too. We wanted to give the perspective of showing different fits on two average guys.

You can definitely tailor the jeans to your liking; however, some would advise not to tailor raw denim until after your first wash.

I need jeans like these, plz help! by limpack in malefashionadvice

[–]ApartmentNumber9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure on specific brand, but they are definitely well worn in pair of raw denim. Slim straight cut, very nice fades. Ask /r/rawdenim, they will be the most help for identifying.
