The verdict

Hickory-stripe selvedge in a straight, neutral fit—bold visual without compromising wearability.

Fit

True Guy is straight and roomy through the hip and thigh with a natural break. Hickory stripe adds pattern; expect a vintage-leaning aesthetic.

Quality

Selvedge hickory is well-constructed; the straight fit suits the pattern well, offering durability and classic visual appeal.

Price check

At $202, fair value for a selvedge variant in a versatile, wearable cut.

Best for

Denim buyers wanting pattern depth and authentic selvedge without a trendy fit.

Care

Cold wash inside-out; hickory patterns fade gradually and beautifully with wear.

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.
