First to catch my eye when unpacking the jeans was the quality of the denim. It felt heavier than 12.7oz and quite rigid. It’s a tightly woven fabric, almost black in color with dark brown cotton stitching. I can image after a few years of wear, the denim will naturally fade emphasizing the contrasting stitching.

The fabric is very smooth to the touch. It isn’t slubby or neppy and has a very slight sheen which really gives it an expensive feel. The finishing of the button holes, the stitching of the leather patch, waistband and hems are so well constructed that the jeans really ooze quality.

The buttons are silver in color and have ”Naked and Famous” in raised embossed lettering circling around the button’s edge. The rivets, also silver, have ”Je t’adore route nue” - ”I love you naked” stamped into them and are very good quality.

The leather used for the patch looks almost un-dyed and is probably 3 or 4mm thick, according to the description it weighs 5oz so it’s pretty chunky. It’s embossed with the brands logo.

Attached to one belt loop with red cord is a folded cardboard tag again with N&F’s logo, the colored Roy Lichtenstein style pop-art design. Inside is a brief summary of the brand’s concept.

Adhering to jeans tradition, there is another thinner piece of cardboard in green this time, folded into the right back pocket with ”Scratch-n-Sniff” and details of the model’s weight, denim origin and dying technique in print.
