i guess its like killing to birds with one stone by getting nudies in van since you can meet the needs of Vancouver fashion as well as the needs of good quality denim...
bleh ppl that wear washed nudie denim disgust me.

Sad to say it but although u may be right about people wearing Nudies for the brand and logo... they are NOWHERE in terms of quality. Most of their denim weigh in at less then 15oz and are not selvedge. Not to say if they are over 15oz or selvage will make jeans automatically quality but crotch blowouts are known to occur on most Nudies jeans.
IMO quality would be looking at brands like Skulls, Flathead, Imperial, Samurai, Pure Blue Japan, Momotaro. Otherwise, I would still rank Naked and Famous and APC over Nudie in terms of quality. You lose the Nudie backpocket stitching.....oh well.
