Not looking forward to this… :-\
What is the concern with the FH/NF collab? Is it that the quality won't be as good as other FH stuff, or that the FH name is being tarnished by association with N&F?
My understanding is that this jean is constructed by FH using FH denim and whatnot, so the quality should be pretty good, yeah?
(Regarding the N&F brand - I've had their stuff in the past and I know it's not in the same league as IH, FH, et. al., but for the price I thought it was pretty reasonable).

Exactly. It's a Flat Head jean with a N&F cut, which is ultimately where they lose out. Pre-soak inseam 34.5? No thank you. I've got some 3009s on the way that I am far more stoked to get my hands on.
Yeah I was pretty surprised about the shortish inseam too. I guess the proof will be in the pudding once some fit/wear pics start circulating.

that.
Momotaro did the same thing and i just cant get my head around why.

Wallmart sells Tees at couple of dollars and for the price its extremely reasonable, in fact its amazingly good value considering i cant buy raw cotton for that price yet i still wouldn't buy it…...... do i make sense?

Can't speak to constructional quality between the two brands having never touched a pair from either, but it all comes down to whether or not the cut works for you. The price is right for more people, the denim speaks for itself, and the cut is personal–maybe it works on you, maybe it doesn't. Construction is the only real measure of quality IMHO.
Personally, I'd like to try a pair of FHs some time, but I'm not sure it's worth it to me to save 50 bucks over the genuine article as far as the NF pair goes. Especially with that short ass inseam. WTF were they thinking? Too risky...

They are so awesome. And so expensive. Are we talking about more than 700$ here?
