  1. thanks... they're about 3.5 years of wear. they hit the 4 year mark in november, but around the third year i started rotating them with another pair of jeans...

    I'll take better picts when they hit 5 years of wear, but that'll be a while

  2. First day wearing 710s, was painful at first but the waist has loosened already. Opinions on fit? I'm a bit worried about the ole kneebags, but I guess that's a common sight in the first week of wear.

    i think they're gonna shrink too much

  3. Am I correct about the samurai element concepts? that the weft are different colors so that when they fade hard enough they will be those colors instead of a plain white....

  4. ^im trying to buy that same jacket! whered u get it! how much!?

    came out to like 370 usd with taxes and shipping...

    got it from ratuken....

    I like it because its a little longer than most raw jean jackets from japan... most of them seem to be short so that you usually have to tuck in your shirt or it looks akward

  5. although over time some of the indigo in the less abraded areas of the denim will eventually wash out, it's no where near as much in the worn areas. that's where contrast comes from. if what you are saying is true all of our jeans would be completely a uniform color after a certain time. if the denim was made with a quality dye job the indigo should be noticably darker in the lesser worn/crocked areas. that's how old vintage jeans still have some blue in em'.

    this past 2 or so pages has been off the rocker

    i agree... worn areas show more indigo loss... But if your going for a more constrasty look its better to delay washes.. different strokes for different folks...

    side question, what model are your 5 year old samurais in the 2year+ thread?

  6. anyone know anything about the momotaro 2105 jean jacket??

    I usually wear a 38 in most jean jackets, u think this would be fine for this particular brand?

    Anyone with any info on this jacket would also be appreciated, or Momotaro vlothing sizing in general
