Anybody know of somebody doing a repro (or even just a jacket that is a similar style) of these? 

 

 

 

Mister Freedom Mururoa looks pretty similar

I wear a 9.5 US in converse and have a pair of 9 US denim Lofgrens and they fit well.

Question regarding the cinch back.  Is there a right or wrong way to use it?  Meaning, i see some people tucking it behind the belt loop and others over it.  Just curious if there was an intended way or if its user choice.  

 

 

@Foxy2 gotta say im really looking forward to your updates as Moscow (and Russia really) really interests me

If you want/need to wear a belt you kinda need to put it behind the belt loop, so that's the way I did it even though I don't need a belt. Not sure what the 'proper' way is.

Quick fit pic on the way to the gym. They felt nice and crispy after a hot soak and hang dry but the fit was too sloppy so I have em a super hot wash and machine dry. They're really soft now.

Just paid up, hopefully not too late. My paypal email is one I never really use/check so I just saw the invoice.

Here's my Evisu no. 0s hang drying after a hot wash.

Hi all, I'm going Japan this September. Do you know anywhere in Tokyo I can buy resolute jeans? I have check the main website, all the shop seems to be outside of Tokyo 

Either hinoya or americaya had resolute when I was there last August. I forget which shop they were in, but they're right next to each other on the same street.

I'm curious which brands you guys are buying still on Rakuten? 

I just ordered some Iron Heart stuff from rakuten before they stop selling it on there. The price difference is pretty crazy, $190 for a flannel vs $345 from US/EU stores, $145 for a pull over hoodie vs $295. Of course I'll buy from a store if I go there and try something I want on, but otherwise rakuten is usually way cheaper.

I think shops that do a lot of collabs is the way to go, offering something not available from Japanese retailers.

Whats esl bm?

ESL means English as a second language

Got mine the other day and the thigh measures 11.5" when the size chart said 12", was worried about something like this as I opted for the hand felled inseam. Other leg measurements match the chart though. Not too big of a deal they still fit and I was going for a slimmer fit with this pair anyway.

Got my tracking number yesterday

Yep they sold out in under 15 minutes. I was refreshing the page all day and managed to nab a pair.

Question about the s0500xx jeans. On BIG, the difference between the RAW vs OW on the leg opening is .25in but it says 4-6% shrinkage. Has anyone gotten .5in off the leg opening when trying to shrink these jeans?

 

Im debating which fit might be better for me but don't know too much about how much Samurai jeans shrink/stretch. Currently debating between the s0511xx and the s0500xx.  

My 0500s measure 7.75" at the hem after being hemmed to 30". Lot 15 waist 31, many hot washes and machine drys.

What good is a coin pocket where you can't reach the whole way down... have to do a handstand to get your coins out :D

Yeah I have to use 2 fingers, one to scrunch up the fabric so the other can reach the coins.
