The verdict
Fit
True Girl is the women's equivalent to True Guy: high-rise, straight through hip and thigh, minimal taper. Fits narrow at the waist; size up 1-2 for comfort.
Quality
Women's-specific construction on Naked & Famous's standard selvedge. Max Brush adds tactile depth. Build is solid for the price point; tailoring and fit-blocking are true to the True Girl line.
Is the price fair?
At 188 USD, fair for a women's-tailored heritage cut with a special surface finish. Pricing is consistent with Naked & Famous's core range.
Best for
Women preferring high-rise, vintage-proportioned selvedge with a textured finish; works for body shapes that don't fit modern tapered cuts comfortably.
Care
Soak cold before first wear to set indigo; wash infrequently and inside-out to preserve brush texture and depth.
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.
