I'm definitely in, hopefully with a little more room in the thighs than the 3001.

I'm pretty excited for the waxed raws with the burgundy tint, the ones with green tint could look pretty nice too. I got a chance to see the swatch, very subtle.

The SA at Dior BH sold me they'd be in in September. Think they will be in the $600 range though.

He's a kid. I'm pretty sure my parents wouldn't let me blow $200+ of my own money on a pair of jeans at that age either.

Give him the description from the AI-001

Here's a shot of our beloved FH 3001 with its temporary brother's and sister's. Since my photography skills are lacking, I figured I could at least show a pic that will give you an idea of how they are looking relative to other stuff in my collection

Top: 45rpm Suminando (31), StyleForum X 5EP (33), SUFU660 (31), FH3001 (32)

Bottom: Afro Samurai (S5000BK) (32), PBJ AI-001 (32), Dior MIJ 19cm (31)

I haven't been updating too much, but I've pretty much worn them every day (give or take 1 or 2) since I've received them.

They are tighter than anything I own. The stupid zipper seems to like to make its way down every once in a while, seems like the upper part of it is a little distorted. Reminds me while I stick with buttons

If they haven't stretched after 80 wears, they probably won't...

was this before of after shrinkage?

Before, basically I tried on the waist that fit me since they were raw in the store.

If I were actually going to buy them, I would take it up to a 33 or 34 to account for shrinkage. I was using the 32 as an estimate of the post shrink fit of a 34.

I wouldn't really worry about the thighs being too tight on these. I tried on a 32 in Japan (32 is my normal waist) and had plenty of room in the thighs. I don't exactly have small legs either.

Here's a small fit pic, excuse the lighting

Tight as hell, as you can see.

Good choice, there is little benefit to the raws anyway.

811, because you're 6'2". 34" inseam post soak on those Evisu is probably cutting it close.

I was saying I thought that raw is sold only in the US (i.e. rby45rpm.com). The Japanese online store doesn't stick the Jomon at all, and I thought that in Japan all 45rpm was one wash. I could be wrong though.

You sure they are raw and not one wash? I thought they only sold the raws in the US.

Kinda curious what you mean regarding the U.S store having an issue with sizing too...

I don't think the Jomons are especially lightweight, probably no less than 14 oz.

Places to get Sammies in Tokyo, Nagoya or Osaka?

Also, are they still doing Arcs?

Americaya in Ueno, and yes they have tabs and arcs.

Well, I gave them a quick wash when I got them so they shrunk back down.

Just took a quick pic of it

Belt color has changed significantly since it was new.

And holy crap these jeans are tight Its kinda funny though, I get the feeling that they've been too small for a bunch of you guys because I can see how the stitches on the outseam are showing.

Looks like the 30001 is one of those jeans you want to size up on

I'll post some pics of it when I get home. Its gotten surprisingly dark

Sounds like she didn't have them inside out and the washing machine beat the crap out of them.

Goddamn these got tight

17.5" only? :/

Pics as they showed up, notebook and belt not in the shots. Will get those later.

Fit pic... pretty damn tight in the thigh

Gonna put them in for a soak and then get things started tomorrow.

They got here today, thanks adsurgo

I was under the impression that the 34" tour ended because someone had their luggage lost by Heathrow airport.

I think kiya gave them another pair and it continued

Haven't gotten anything yet. I pm'd him to see if he sent them again.

I guess it ends whenever we're done with all of the people on the list, depending on what happens with Prof. So looks to be another 3-4 months...
