  1. I have done some searches, Google and the such, on what the purpose of half selvedge is and I have never been able to find anything helpful. So,what you are saying is that it is only for tapering purposes; is that it? I always thought that it might have been a way to save on selvedge material if that makes sense. Oh and while I think that full looks better, half still looks neat, like on these lees.

  3. I agree that it’s an acquired taste, because those you posted are not good, but I would stomp on some family members to get a pair of the grey and reds. So, to each his own.

  4. I am pretty fat so I would probably never consider a girls jean but I am wondering arent they a girls cut, in other words wouldnt everything be all smashed up and uncomfortable.

  5. I was wondering are Yens, the redlabel, are sanforized ? I was doing some research but the google translations of the Japanese sites are a bit vague sometimes. Thanks in advance.

    you see.... the 1 2 3 4 5.

    1 is tight. 5 is loose.

    Whenever I did the google translation, it would show that the scale is between thin and thick, so I assumed that I was how thick the denim was and not how wide it was. Yours makes more sense, thank you for the clarification.
  7. I have never owned a pair of Evisu but I have also seen that people hold, held, it in a high esteem. I was wondering if it is just over commercialized or has the quality really gone down. I also want to know if you can still get a high quality pair in Japan or is it over commercialized there as well. I hope that made sense.

  8. Thank You for the chart but that is actually more detailed than what I was asking. I wanted to know how High the pockets are in relation to the jean. Some of the lee pockets look they are kissing the waistband, and that is a higher pocket position than I like to wear. Its a great chart and very descriptive pictures but not exactly what I needed, but thanks any way.

  9. I know this is a little off topic but I thought that because of copywrite laws most Japanese brands could not be sold in the US. Such as, how most have the red tab and what not, it would infringe in the Levis trademarks. Or maybe I am misinformed?
