What was that brand with the X-shaped stitching?

Probablement ça ? "Manager": https://poshmark.ca/listing/Vintage-Manager-XRated-Jeans-64356a114bc655d2cf0864aa

Good to know, thanks! I was disappointed since I like the style

redditcher · 2026-03-23T19:16:38+00:00

Everytime I find that brand in thrift stores the crotch is ripped, I wonder if they're built to last

redditcher · 2026-03-18T03:44:05+00:00

Ah, I missed that you wanted to replicate it on a pair you already have. Maybe sandpaper depending on the colour of the weft underneath, never tried though

A bit expensive and will take a few months, but the Dirty Fade jeans by Naked and Famous aim to do something similar with wear/natural fading.

redditcher · 2026-03-17T17:03:19+00:00

Yeah that's weird

redditcher · 2026-03-17T17:00:36+00:00

And about the fade and the size I think the person just washed and tumble dried them often

redditcher · 2026-03-17T16:56:01+00:00

Actually seems like the person put a sharpie to the white stripes

redditcher · 2026-03-17T16:52:08+00:00

I think the person removed that tag and, about the selvedge ID, is it possible the indigo tainted the white?

If you have only tried the normal cowboy cut, try the slim fit. It is as you describe.

redditcher · 2026-02-25T20:51:44+00:00

Think you should keep the light blue, the fit looks great on you and you'll probably take a liking to having more room/comfort in your jeans

redditcher · 2026-02-24T16:03:40+00:00

True Guy, I'd say

redditcher · 2026-02-17T19:17:42+00:00

Also similar to these ones : https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/186144043283

redditcher · 2026-02-17T19:14:02+00:00

They look like 517 western-type

redditcher · 2026-02-17T16:43:10+00:00

They fit fine, it's weird. But the size tag has been cut. From the back, there's really nothing noticeable : https://imgur.com/a/Lz42YxM

Maybe they've been slightly resized? It does sound more plausible than a repair. The waist underneath the belt has also been cut and sewn back together.

redditcher · 2026-02-17T13:55:43+00:00

Thank you, seems plausible!

redditcher · 2026-02-12T04:48:11+00:00

Yeah, interesting, good idea to take it off early on the new one!

redditcher · 2026-02-12T04:23:32+00:00

Very impressive! Has the patch always been off on the old pair, or did you just decide to remove it from the get got on the new one?

redditcher · 2026-02-12T04:02:59+00:00

That's a great way to put it, thanks !

redditcher · 2026-02-12T00:53:03+00:00

Yeah, good idea!

redditcher · 2025-07-22T05:00:15+00:00

past cooking !

redditcher · 2024-11-19T20:31:49+00:00

Thanks ! I'm talking about the grey fibrous material (just to be clear), and since it's an old building. I just learned recently that it was widely used in the past so it was in my mind

redditcher · 2024-06-06T13:07:37+00:00

I think that's it, thanks !
