well, it's the main store of the brand kapital as i'm sure you know of. located in ebisu and it will blow your mind. well, it blew mine. you've seen a lot more of this crazy vintage/workwear/and-everything-in-between than me but from the moment i stepped into the store i was baffled, amazed and inspired. i don't think i left until i'd touched everything in the store three times.

plus they have a few other stores focused on jeans and other things. internet and horriblyjollyjinx know more.

You basically want to live in the Kapital stores. They have three stores close to eachother in Ebisu. I spent like 5 hours between them the first time I went. I still haven't bought anything there though, feel so bad about it.

Yeah, lets do a meetup.

who do you think is going to buy your jawns if you dont study hard and learn how to make small leg openings

Really interested in these - thanks for posting HJJ - can you say what the difference is in the fabrics of the 001XX and the 1301XX and, are they a similar cut to the AG1101XX? Thanks!

Thanaks everyone who said thanks!

The 001XX and 1301XX are the same cut with slightly different detailing. The 001XX has sanforized denim while the 1301XX is shrink to fit. They're the same cut as the AG1101XX.

The 001XX comes in true to size, sz 30 will measure 30" measured the BiG way.

The 1301XX sz 30 comes in at 30" raw but shrinks to about 28", but should also stretch a lot like my 1101XX did.

Basically they fit very similar to the LVC 47 like I said in my post. They pattern comes from an actual pair of 50s 501s that they cut up and not from a repro though.

Bijan, Warehouse still does the Dubbleworks 1000xx(or whatever the name is, they have some loggers on the patch) and the Warren which are both the same cut, so you could get that. But its fun to try something new.

The 001/1301/1101 are a little slimmer than the 1000xx and have a little lower rise. Its like the LVC 47 compared to 44(not exactly but sort of).

Try on the LVC 47 and order the Ooes if you like it. In my pics my jeans have stretched a lot and are sagged a little, so they look quite full. After the first wash they were more snug and I wore them higher so they looked slimmer.

Like k449 said they ship overseas and take paypal. Did you get a pair already, k449?

Btw, I handwashed my pair yesterday eve, after a little less than 2 months. They smelled a lil bad, I'm a dirty old man, you know.

I don't expect them to change much at all, but hopefully shrink down in the waist. All washing machines are cold or 30*c here in Japan so the first wash was just that. Should be some additional shrinkage now.

More of a response to your blog hjj, but damn, thats actually a pretty cool prize:

I don't doubt you'll win, btw...

Actually you dont win the frame but your pair will be displayed in the frame if you win.. Or maybe im not recalling correctly and you do win the frame.

I dont think I'll win though because the fading has been so slow so far. Wasn't motivated enough the first month, but I guess I could make up for it. But I feel 6 months is not enough.

Yeah, those 1850 duck pants are awesome. Its like the best duck pants I've ever seen from any brand and they're so accurate and detailed, and cheap!

I will get the duck and the denim version eventually. You can find a pic of them worn on their blog.

Finally got my ass out of the wagon to post about Ooe. I've been way to lazy to take a wearing pic, so im glad they did it for me.

My favourite brand. Definitely up there with Warehouse, LVC.

rajio don't sweat it, you'll find something.

anyone go see the whip DJ at warehouse last night?

whats a whip dj? i went to air last night, the dj did a 7hours set and was awesome.

the place is terribly hot though.

Urban Outfitters is cool, Top Shop is cool.

Oops, blew YOUR cool!!

ive never been to kapital blue

what do they carry?

they carry kapital. and yeah the kapital stores are the best ive been to so far. i spent about 5 hours between the three kapital stores in ebisu.

ive yet to go to 45rpm tho, one of their stores is supposedly like and old traditional japanese house.

btw, tfr is so so.

i have no idea what that means, sry.

postpostpost

dont let the korean thread beat us! so, what are you doing this weekend? whats the best thing to do on sat? im thinking legato, ageha or unit.

my moneys worth 45% less since the first of august. im living off of the 100 yen stores!!!!!!!!!!!! and i drink like a japanese person when i go out, nothing.

im gonna apply for a scholarship at berberjin and warehouse

they have frequent monorail service from shinbashi eki, which is on the yamanote sen. thats probably the easiest way.

thanks, this will probably help a lot. they have a supersmall map that im not able to read on their website.

me of course. by the way, how do i get to odaiba? and when does this thing start. and how much is it..

e is international. エクスタシー

Sufu lunch tomorrow (Saturday) in Tokyo?

Let's do this shit..

Pick a place... I'm staying in Shiba but can get around easily.

sleeping~~

i decided to go to the fetish party tomorrow. cu~~

I take back my earlier statement that I would be voting for myself... I'm voting for Nader. Mccain and Obama are two sides of the same coin. peep who the #3 receiver of campaign contributions from fannie mae and freddie mac is - barack obama!

also horriblyjollyjinx... let's dial down the rhetoric. you've got a point about the subprime mortage crisis not entirely being the fault of the bush administration but you sound without validity when you blather on about killing all "hippies and liberals"

what you gonna do, neg rep me? liberal!

i have yet to go to womb. don't feel like paying 4000yen cover though.

work is fucking slow and this rain isn't helping. tgiffffff

kyou tokyouni sugoi ame desu.

kyouWA?

yeah 4000 sucks but today its like 3000 with a flyer plus i really have to go out and it seems to be the best thing going on tonight(that i know of, not really connected yet).

by the way, BerBerJin is the BEST. im gonna be arrested when i get back to sweden because ill be looking crazy. and probably be, too.

2 minutes from my home is a small bar with an A+ crazy people clientele. needless to say, it effects my performance in school, and attendance.

womb tonight, look out for the hammerpants.

"why did i get a tattoo?"

profile shot

A++++. I need that tattoo in my life

Employee of the month today goes to....

for being a strawberry marshmallow man, and showcasing his flesh light collection

iphone exist in his hand. expensive cloths.

he must be baller

anyone notice the levis red tab in these pictures. motherfuckin jewish bankers buyin up the us of a n bribin ze politicians. the ambience in tokyo is crazy, tense waiting for the atomic bombs to fall unless denime stop producing red tab jeans.

anyone voting for mccain is ridiculous, regardless of whether its the cool or not cool thing to do. wtf @ anyone complaining that obama has reached celebrity status. It should be a good thing that the majority of a country is behind a soon to be democratically elected leader, that means he's doing something right.

Mccain and his party is part of the reason why a lot of people who typically vote republican are losing mad money in the stock market right now. everyone knows he's got all kinds of ties with the bush administration. So no, really I think everyone is voting obama unless you're blind to the REAL issues going on and focusing on small time shit like same sex marriages and abortions, or you're one of those old people who are still racist.

Yeah and I didn't even start on sarah palin, cause that's the last nail in the coffin anyway.

cunt ass liberal, you know nothing about economy so dont bring up the subject. what about the clinton administration giving house loans to everyone with 2-4 legs and no money through fannie mae & freddie mac and cutting interest rate to 1%? this debt is the culprit of the SUBPRIME crisis that you might not have heard of.

republican and liberal, its all the same nowdays. but trust me, liberals never did jack shit for the economy and never will.

im not voting for anyone but myself, ever.

i fucking hate those liberal and republican scumbags. kill all hippies, liberals and republicans.

that looks interesting. i want to dress fetish-y.

going out on the 31st, some gay roppongi club. oh well. 6 girls so it'll be fun either ways.

sufu meetup?

why dont you go to tfr instead. roppongi???

btw im going to legato on the 1st for sure, late halloween party.
