The verdict
Fit
Super Guy is a relaxed-straight fit, roomy through hip and thigh. The added stretch makes it more forgiving than traditional rigid denim.
Quality
Naked & Famous cuts genuine denim—the selvedge detail is there, the construction is solid. At this price you're paying for brand heritage and craft, not luxury finishing.
Is the price fair?
Fairly priced for mid-market denim that won't feel stiff out of the box.
Best for
Buyers who want selvedge denim without rigid break-in and don't need heritage-brand pricing.
Care
Selvedge denim should be washed cold and infrequently; expect natural fading.
What owners report about Naked & Famous jeans
Owners treat the line as a first stop for Japanese selvedge: reviewers report solid construction, an unusually wide rotation of fabrics from Japanese mills, and fast, high-contrast fades at prices roughly in the 130 to 230 dollar band. Recurring criticisms are vanity sizing (one reviewer measured a tagged 31 as a true 33), fabric that stretches out considerably between washes, indigo bleed when pairs are new, and occasional loose threads showing up within the first couple of months.
- Strengths
- Reviewers consistently say the line delivers Japanese selvedge fabric variety and strong fades at a lower price than most raw denim they compare.
- Watch out for
- Vanity sizing plus noticeable stretch between washes make first-purchase fit tricky, and new pairs bleed indigo; some owners also report loose threads early on.
- Sizing
- Sources say tagged sizes run big and the denim stretches with wear, so go by actual measurements rather than the tag; several cuts also come with very long inseams that owners plan to hem.
