Everything about them is great, I just have a problem with the 2008 cut. I'll grab the tap measure... Mine are 29's
Waist: 15.5in
Front Rise: 9.5in
Back Rise: 13.75in
Upper Thigh: 11in
Knee: 7.75in
Leg Opening: 7.5in
Inseam: 33in
So theres a slight tapper but look how low the front rise is..
Hmm....Slimmer than I thought. The jeans are similar to a "tight straight" pair from the Momotaro.
As you've stated, I think your main issue is that the jeans are too slim. As evidenced by the low front-rise.
If the 2008's are really slim, then I'd hate to see the 2010. Still like the fit, though I can understand that it's not to everyone's taste. If I get another pair of International Evisu's, it likely be the 2000 cut.

Fit looks good to me. Might need to be hemmed ( or cuffed). They look slimmer than those PRPS' on your blog. I imagine they'll stretch though.
How's the denim itself though? Nice construction/details? I have a pair of the green-cast, but according to the site, the denim is heavier with this version.

LOL. They all look legit to me. One just doesn't have selvage, which they do sell. I imagine the pic for the 2nd pair on the official store is a better indicator of how the jean's look.
Good luck your purchase.

the seller will've got away with daylight robbery if anyone buys that off him
They probably will. If the success of high-priced fakes is any indication.
I came across these faded No. 3's a while back; not sure if anyone has seen em before:

100 pounds for a "custom" made shirt that evisu likely "custom" made a 100+ times?
Awesome! I'll be more impressed if someone actually bids on that.

I still haven't decided if I am going to forgive evisu for liquidating their US market. Now we have to pay penalties for currency fluctuation (stupid weak dollar), and last time I checked evisu international still charged us 17% vat, plus obscene EMS shipping. Grrrrrrrrrr
No VAT, but $27 for shipping. Plus, there's the possibility customs might charge you a fee, since Evisu wants to use Fed EX or DHL. Some stores mark items as gifts or pay the customs fees.

The waist is slightly bigger (an inch). But no where near the craziness of the 2005 version.

Might wanna email them for exact sizing.
I'd get em. LOL. The fit is probably good, if the pics of the 2008 are any indication. You better hurry though, they appear to be selling. No telling when they'll do this again.

Oh well, must be a lot of short ass's in Japan
I wouldn't be surprised. Ha.
BTW, I came across this. Not sure what the hell it is.

I'm not sure either. Can't find anything on the deal anymore. All the International brand yacks about is the ethos of the Japanese brand. Nothing more.
You'd think Yamane owned the international line too.
At least the website does a better job of explaining the denim now,.

wonder
wonder if yamane now regrets selling the rights to market his brand outside of japan...
Nah, I don't think so. The international brand seems to maintain the ethos somewhat/particularly in terms of the gaudiness of some the pieces. Some of the Japanese pieces (IMHO) can be worse.
However, he might be upset at not having expanded the brand himself in the international markets, if that's what you mean.
LOL.
BTW, I realized these finally released on the site:
