Selvedge Question

Hi,

Which Edwin and Nudie jeans are closest in fit to 501s?

From what I can gather online its the Ed-55 and the Steady Eddie. if you own jeans by both these manufacturers which do you recommend?

Thanks in advance,

CB

Re: Selvedge Question

The Edwin ED47 are the closest fit to modern 501s, the Nashville are a 50's 501 style
The Ed55 has a a very square top  and can look a bit low-rise as a result.

The Nudie are an odd fit,
they are a definite try before you buy as they can look a bit wrong for some body shapes.

Re: Selvedge Question

CB have you thought of giving Pike Brothers a go.
Great jeans, nice detailing and not too 'nosebleed' price wise.
The 63 Roamer is based on 60's 501/2 (approx 11" front rise and good back rise)
