Evisu is still loved!

I have a blanket lined type I & a stormrider. Suppose you're choice should be determined whether you want a winter jacket or one for other seasons. The blanket lining does make a huge difference to how warm it keeps you. That said the lining in the jacket you've posted looks a bit aged and so may not be as warm as a new one & so could be a useful middle ground.

One thing I would say, and this probably shouldn't sway you either way, is that if you want crazy arm crease/fades it'll be difficult to achieve with a blanket lined jacket. I think only Swiss Jeans Freak can hammer a blanket lined jacket! Given the jackets you've posted have a nice bit of natural ageing to them anyway i guess you're not after that.

Edit: both are v nice. Good finds!

Didn't spot your location. These are probably a breeze to come by!

Jackets are in the loft over summer so these are some old Iphone photos I've dug out so apologies for quality.

I'll be in Tokyo and Osaka starting next week and all this talk of Evisu is making want to buy a 2000 in the No.1. I just can't decide which denim to get but leaning towards the Gatagata which is supposed to be the most slubby among the the No. 1 denim. Is that correct?

So I'm thinking of buying a Evis (/no u!) denim Jacket. What cut do you guys recommend? I'm pretty small so maybe a size 34 would fit my arms best.

 

I was looking at this:

Not bad for ¥9300...

 

This would be nice for winter...

Does anyone have one of these lined jackets?

 

Little bit of evis history...

I've got a type 2 Evis jacket (lot 1507 I think, the patched is fucked). I wore it earlier for the first time in ages. I'll get some pics over the weekend...

Anybody got experience on 2000 No.1 17oz Tiger Selvedge !? ... SU2 ?

How's the denim in these?

When I asked denimio about the 17oz they said SU2. I bought the 14.5oz instead so I can't help you more than that.

Edit: I did the fourth wash on my 14.5oz and they shrink alot even now. I like the slim fit but if you want them loser I think it's possible to su3.
