The verdict
Fit
Super Guy is a roomier straight-leg cut, comfortable through the hips and thigh. Expect it to stretch a full size after a few wears; size down one.
Quality
Typical of Naked & Famous selvedge at this tier: solid ring-spun construction with consistent indigo. Not museum-grade, but will hold its shape and develop honest fades over time.
Is the price fair?
At $181, this is mid-tier for domestic-quality raw denim. Fair price for an American brand with selvedge and ring-spun yarn, though not a bargain.
Best for
Denim enthusiasts who want a straightforward, room-to-move silhouette without premium pricing.
Care
Wash cold and infrequently; raw indigo loses depth with heat. A 6-month first soak is typical practice.
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.
