Interesting indeed...Not sure what the final product will have but I forgot to mention that this special run is to commemorate YM Factory's 4 years of being in business.

This is stupid of me for posting/blowing up the spot especially since this will be a small run and hard to get, but DAMN if this isn't the pinnacle of repro's, the Mt. Everest of jeans:

Yawara Miura of infamous YM Factory fame (he's one of, if not THE goto guy in Japan for vintage denim repair; we're talking people that wear cinch back Levis etc. who use his services) is collaborating on this beautiful pair of Ooe's although no purchase details are out yet...

 

 

let me know boys if they start selling this pair!

[garden gnomes in space]

LOL Hog needs a proxy to ask questions...

Re: YM pair; I'm in touch but there's actually no determined details just yet. I'll update as soon as this changes!

[garden gnomes in space]

you gonna cop Aho?  seems to be right up your alley in terms of what you wanted in your grail OOE pair...

[aho]

^you bet! I've been lusting such a pair ever since I failed to buy the 10th Anniversary Warehouse 1004XX years back but I covet Ooe's more than anything else these days (boots aside). Really a perfect build; the OAXX fabric matches pre-40's Levi's the best in my opinion...

^Can't remember if World Tour was #35 (or somewhere near that?) but the Ooe Contest was #91. #43 is one of my favorites and is a lighter shade of blue kind of similar to the 15th anniversary WH denim. Aside from OAXX, my picks would be either #43, or #78 (which I believe is sold out, not that they make custom anymore...) which I refer to as the "Grandpa fades" fabric...

[beautiful_FrEaK]

#35 was the Travelling Pants denim, you are absolutely right aho!

 

And from what I read on here, from several members the '43 is close to WH denim

[Max Power]

Was 41 or 43 the heaviest of the fabrics? I liked that one best.

[Flash]

Think it was 41 mate

[Max Power]

I think so too. Still regret not getting a piar made of it.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I think many regret not getting a custom pair when it was "easy". Me included of course

But now I got at least the same craftmanship and cut and know where to get back if I need anotehr one

I still lament the grinding halt on #44.  It's beautiful stuff after you beat the living piss out of it for a while.  Shame it didn't get out more around here.

Again, you're killing me hog.

Oh how I wish I could've gotten a custom pair.

What really kills me is the neps all but vanish anyway.

I'd take pics of my swatch but if hog gets the ex-girlfriend metaphor, then I get to do mine with upskirt/cute cashier angles

I can't imagine Ryo and Hiro would be upset about sharing those at this point.  Kind of moot now, no?
