  1. What's the difference on those to the 47 model? It uses the same Baner denim (from the 1920s/1930s). So probably just a slightly tweaked cut and some other thread colours?
  2. Nope, the shipping is 3000¥ flat on top. They ask 10% over the domestic price. So basically as if they wouldn't deduct the VAT. I asked them about it.
  3. And their overseas price is higher than their domestic price
  4. Neal, you are thinking in extremes I think in this case we were talking about 0.5-1". If one really needs that extra length it could be achieved through sagging. Would I base an online purchase on this? Never. But if the jeans can be tried on before the purchase and it works for the individual, why not? I will just keep on hiking up my higher rise jeans ever now and then before I step on my hem (Bodies are simply different and what works for one doesn't necessarily work for another one).
  5. I am not sure what a picture of Britney with obviously low rise jeans adds to the argument of wearing high rise jeans lower than intended but then I'm not a native speaker as you know so it maybe just went over it head
  6. Well he has his standard model, and then builds the western version on top of that (in a standard way). And then yes, you can still ask for some alterations which are not too far away from the original pattern. It's best to contact him on his rebuilt.jp account
  7. Well, there is some truth in it. I have experienced it every so often that some high rise jeans just tend to sag to the usual spot where I wear my jeans and since they are worn lower than intended, this adds to the overall length/Inseam. That's also why i often don't like some high rise jeans, they will simply fall down (even with a belt).
  8. @malik or you could go the semi-custom route. Libra Pondus Lb40s. https://rebuilt.jp/lb40s_size/ Ono-san offers a Western version which is basically 2 sizes up in the rise, hips and thighs. So you would look at a W38 but with rise, hips and thighs of a W40 (not pictured here but you can extrapolate). You would need to get in touch with him via IG and see if he wants to do it.
  9. I wore the 47 denim only for a brief time (in the 2021 model, my 1947 are unworn) and yes, this 46 denim fades quicker.
  10. Available on a German site: https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/jeans-sugarcane/2853625601-160-17302?utm_source=sharesheet&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=app_android Dunno which model and a small size. If you need a proxy...tell me 😅
  11. Yes, Simone is working together with a friend on a special patch design.
  12. @Broark did you cave in already? 😉
  13. Now, the long and boring wait begins. May it be filled with unnecessary purchases.
  14. Looks really better than the contest pair back then.
  15. Actually just one hand that depends on when the new SC1945 is really released. Already pre-ordered them some months ago. I just found it interesting that this worn-in pair from the book and the deadstock pair the 1943 model is based on are actually made at the same time and both survived the time.
  16. I bought these several weeks earlier. @julian-wolf I'll go with a W36 in the WMJ contest. That's the healthier size I need to go back to and to fit all my other jeans comfortably.
