To be honest, I thought this was going to be a quick little 10 min vlog. It was only when one of my cameras shut itself off that I realized I hade been talking non-stop for 30 mins. What can I say... I have a Denim Problem. There are worse addictions to have, I guess...

[@soccer171717]

Hey man just want to say that im glad this channel exists. Its really hard to find good or really any youtube content on raw denim and its nice to kick back and watch some content on raw denim rather than always reading about it on forums.

[@CeeAreDee]

I appreciate that! Really, thank you for your kind words.

[@Wsherwoodking]

Love the collection and love the passion dude :)

[@CeeAreDee]

Appreciate it! Cheers, Will.

[@Adovian_]

very good, varied collection. I'm of the mind that the best denim is made around the world. I've had my Nudie Regular Alf Raws for 6 years, still pristine. LVC/Made&Crafted/underrated

[@chawenhalo0089]

Enjoyed that I 'm up for Momotaro, given you've got a few different pieces. And good luck tidying that up.

[@CeeAreDee]

It was not that bad in the end. Was good to delve back into a few of the bit in there. And dust them off 😂

[@mikeyc5018]

Cracking video... impressive collection! Love denim jackets but I live in jeans so always worry that if I go with double denim il look like Shakin Stevens!

[@CeeAreDee]

Haha, I just roll with it ;)

[@electricbamboogaloo2]

Thanks for sharing - I'm very appreciative that you shared brands that I never thought of or heard before - I'm fairly new and seeing this gets me so excited to know I don't have to stick to Japanese brands to try!

[@CeeAreDee]

Amen to that. There are so many amazing brand out there. Japanese are amazing for sure but it’s not the be all and end all. Thanks for you’re kind words.

[@davidallen346]

@@CeeAreDee What if your significant other esp a female partner makes fun of your denim collection or even putting you down for wearing denim on denim , either make or break up a relationship you think ?

[@CeeAreDee]

@@davidallen346 I guess if things are that fragile in the relationship then it would be time to reevaluate the situation. At the very least have a cogent discussion with the person and let them know that this is your thing and to leave it at that. Or leave.

great video - thanks for sharing!

You bet! Thanks for watching :)

[@devinchong442]

haha, I've stopped myself from buying another denim jacket because I still have a really good one in my closet, interesting to see you have that many denim jackets

[@CeeAreDee]

Yeah. They are kinda my thing 😂 it’s too many to be honest

[@devinchong442]

@@CeeAreDee I'd love to see your take on how to pair denim with denim, how to double denim, smurf out! I know a lot of other fashion channels on youtube like to say you have to contrast, light wash jeans with a dark wash jacket for example, but I love that uniform look with matching jacket and pants, I'd love to see the video you'd make about matching denim

[@CAFEAE319]

What a great collection 😵

[@CeeAreDee]

Thanks! Took me a few years but growing it slowly. :)

[@thoneykcastillo]

I have a question - how do I spell that Spanish brands name who made the longer length jacket & vest? I have a lengthy torso & arms so I could use that. Also what brand is your green shirt you're wearing? Thanks! I love the videos.

[@CeeAreDee]

It’s w-rod and I think that’s an old arm surplus shirt.

[@nasaspacemanwho6711]

Really enjoyed this. Good vibes man. Good vibes 😁👍 by the way. What do you guys do for storage? Hang full lemtgh, hand folded or fold away in a drawer.

[@CeeAreDee]

The rotation ones are hung on hooks. The seldom worn ones are folded and stacked. The really well worn archive pieces are in vacuum bags.

@@CeeAreDee bought 2 pairs.

[@sscordo25]

Can you post pics of the fit of the Big Joh 008s? Ive been on the fence between those and the 009s.

[@CeeAreDee]

Here is an in depth review I did on them over on the old site :) Hope it helps. As far as I know, the 008s are a 47 like straight cut and the 009s are more of a slim fitting jean.

[@Stevesaav]

What clothes rack is that from and links to it?

[@stonehouse1]

Wondered what your thoughts are on Iron Heart (noticing that you don't have any in your collection)?

[@CeeAreDee]

I am a huge admirer of what IH do, really. It is just that I am not much into the heavy denim side of things and yeah, they do some great jeans and other items in lighter weights, but just haven't as yet got hold of any. Sure it will come one day tho :)

[@MrKsann]

Edwin- and Nudie-Shop in Berlin do repair their own jeans. Got a few Bravestar denims. Can you recommend (a) place(s) here to get those fixed?

[@CeeAreDee]

In Berlin? There is DC4, I believe Daniel does a repair service with a darning machine. Also Anna Tittel Schneideratelier on Max-Beer-Straße in Mitte do a good job of repairs. I think the Burg & Schild guys use that place.

Damn dude, I was a welder for a living and u almost own as much denim as me lol. I just bought some 15oz denim I'm going to make myself a full length dress out of I can't wait to wear it in! I also do sasheiko

[@CeeAreDee]

Haha. Yeah working in the denim industry over the past decade. I’ve piled up quite a bit. How’s that dress coming along?

[@penelope-oe2vr]

@@CeeAreDee I am making a corset first to go under it. Then make a fitted kirtle dress that laces up out of it. I have some 15os raw denim, and the selvage, not sure which to use for the dress. I figure it will wear in and be AMZINGGGGGG to wear! I wear modernized historically inspired clothes. That's my thing. I am lear.ing about this denim through you, and I'm totally into it! Yassss

[@penelope-oe2vr]

I have a huge collection of regular jeans. I was a welder and jeans were what I wore to work alot bc they were best for not catching on fire. My mom says my jeans collection is atrocious, but there's nothing special about it, I just love denim and wear it alot.

[@TheJPCFilms]

What is the highest quality Japanese denim brand? I'm torn between Momotaro, Full count, Big John etc.

[@CeeAreDee]

Ooft, that is a good question and to be honest... almost impossible to answer. It really depends on what you are looking for in terms of details and denim. Momotaro, Full count and Big John are solid options tho. Persoanlly I would be very tempted to go with the Big John Rare 008s. or 009s if you want a slimmer fit. It is hands down the best fast fading denim I have ever had and they are not too common in the West, you would be getting something quite "Rare" ;)

[@TheJPCFilms]

@@CeeAreDee what about Benzak?

[@modemarcoj8026]

[@lymn2002]

What style is that green shirt , isn't that denim ? I found saucezhan on aliexpress it looks interesting

[@CeeAreDee]

Green shirt, you mean the one from Butcher of Blue?

[@rickberkelmans9335]

I think you are referring to the orlsow militairy shirt you are wearing

[@CeeAreDee]

Haha, Rick, just had one of those "D'oh!" moments. 😂 That shirt is a deadstock HBT military shirt that some hippie brand got hold of and put their own labels in... Beautiful shirt!

[@rickberkelmans9335]

@@CeeAreDee ahhh I could have sworn it was the Orslow shirt. I have the camo version. The buttons looked really similar as well, only there seems to be something different with the pockets so I wasn't completely 100% sure :D anyway. great shirt! The camo version is my favourite shirt ever and got me into denim / workwear / military wear a couple years ago.

[@MikiBlue]

Can you review black denim jeans please?

[@CeeAreDee]

I will put it on the list, good thought.

[@CeeAreDee]

Haha. Going to treat myself to a new one when I hit 10000 subs. I’m not sure why it’s always the crotch that goes on my jeans. Just my body shape and lifestyle I guess.

[@koskey06]

If u dont want to wash good quality jeans....I understand that....but atleast soak them and if u cant effort for them to shrink a lil, then wear them in the tub and while they dry....or just BUY A BIGGER PAIR AKA THE SIZE THAT ACTUALLY FITS YOU AFTER A WASH!! I wash my Jean's, not after every wear "unless I get them crazy dirty" but I wash them when I feel they NEED it! Norm after 5 to 10 wears.
