I have both the okinawas and the 47s, and both of your information is right. basically there is a very slight difference in rise and thigh - okinawa having a slightly lower rise and slightly wider thigh, BUT when you wear em, you can't really tell the difference at all, and they look pretty much the same. so you could say that visually they look the same when worn.

Cool, so which do you like better?

Does anybody have experience with Sugarcane's bootcut model? I'm looking for something similar to a Ralf.

And out of curiosity, can what's the difference in fit between the Okinawa and the 47? Some sites say that the Okinawa is a lower rise and a wider thigh, with both jeans being similar from the knee down, while other sites say they're pretty even.

Sounds like Crate James III/IV would fit the bill perfectly.

Amazing jeans, nice price. Somebody needs to buy these!

Just FYI, both belts would work best for someone with a 29 to 31 inch waist.

Thanks Thomas, PM sent.

The Denime are slim for a Japanese semi-repro, but are not as slim as Dior or APC. The Calis have a hem that measures under 18cm, so they have that skinny thing going on. They have slighty more room in the seat and crotch, and can be anti-fit depending on how skinny you are.

The front rise on the Cali is 10", and the back rise is 14".

Morning bump for jeans

This morning at like 5:45 as I was eating cereal before work, lol.

real interested in the slim jimS!

You should be, they're great jeans for cheap .

Springbag, the Diors are sold. The Denime are the only other jeans that have been altered. They were hemmed to fit me.

Looking for a pair of jeans or pants that are slightly loose in the thigh, yet fitted in the calf/hem to create a drapey/creasy sort of look... or something. I'm currently wearing New Cures so I'm looking for something different. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Califonias might fit the bill, or maybe a pair of Even Stevens?

Japanese Reebok Skate Shoes

My Dad bought me these back when he worked at Reebok. They're a Japanese model never released in the US (as far as I know). US size 11, but they run small, more like a 10 1/2. I'm an 11 in pretty much everything, and these are slightly too small for me.

Due to a combination of new job where I can't wear jeans, and changing tastes, I have a bunch of jeans I don't really wear all that much. All prices are shipped in the US. Add $5 for international. All measurements are done like BiG does them.

Those look great on you. Any idea what they measure at the hem?

I'm dreading the day my razr bites the dust, because I don't really want another one but its put a very strong vertical fade line on most of my jeans.

No, I'm not married to Japanese brands. The Kings are a good thought, but I thought they were a very similar fit to the Ralf, and I absolutely hate the size of the back pockets. The stitching is cool by me, but not the giganticness.

I would grab a pair of Rescues in a heartbeat, if they made them in my size! Arg, why APC? Why? I'm a 27 in the New Standard.

What 'relaxed' jean should I buy? I'm skinny as shit, but I've been on a kick where I wear my size 11 boots a lot lately. Skinny jeans just aren't cutting it. I have a pair of RRDG, but I was thinking something Japanese and more straight cut would be a nice alternative.

I tried an SD-303 a ways back, and I was swimming in them, even though they were very tight in the waist. You could see zero definition in any part of my legs. So I'd like something not too big/relaxed in the seat and thigh area, but still maintaining a hem of greater than 8 inches. Specific, I know.

Samurai s5000vx - I could size down one and a half, to a size 28. The rise and thigh measurements look like they would work with me, but I'm worried that them hem and calf area might shrink up too much (BiG list the raw size 29 as having an 8.5" hem). Also, I live in Texas, so 17oz denim might make me want to shoot myself.

Skull s5000xx - Bigger hem than the Sams, but also a higher rise (higher rises do not really compliment my body type, in my experience) and maybe slightly looser up top. The denim is lighter weight.

PBJ XX-006 - According to BiG's measurements, these fit much slimmer in the thigh than Sams and the Skulls, but have a bigger hem. Seems like they are very straight cut. The size 28, however, is listed as having a 32" inseam. That's raw, but I'm kinda skeptical they they'll shrink up that much. I like my raw denim to start out at 29", and stretch out to 30". My jeans that have done that usually fit me best. Also, the XX-005 didn't really fit me right, even though they were the correct size. Weird around the crotch and the seat.

Fullcount makes a lower rise straight jean, the 1614. It looks good on paper, but Rakuten models are shaped so differently than I am, it's impossible to tell how they would fit on me. Same goes for the Denime type 66.

What jeans should I buy?

EDIT: A SSDS would be very close to what I'm looking for, but I already have a pair I've beat to shit.
