not one single vintage SugarCane jeans?!

I'm curious when Neat Style Official's in-house jeans will be sued because of copyright infringements by. They are vey "similar" to Eat Dust https://www.cultizm.com/de/denim/jeans/41940/eat-dust-fit-73-loose-tapered-selvedge-denim-indigo-blue-13oz

The Leepro 101B I own from the Orizzonti era has also just one direction. It's LHT though. But then, hopefully without sounding like a disappointed fanboy: current Denime has next to nothing in common with old Denime. So better compare it with Warehouse if you want to have a reference.

Gave them a cold soak. The fit in the top block reminds me a lot of old Denime XX.

@blooming to add here, the 220A, 221 and 224 definitely used different denim for each pair. Or the batches of denim were so different, I don't know. That's why I think the chart is misleading. Which denim they used for the jackets, I don't know. Never handled them

Cutting the branches after pruning the apple trees in our garden. Also not much to see 😅

I think Devin gave me a copy for free some years later. But I dunno if I still have it saved somewhere

@Topnotcher here you go https://supertalk.superfuture.com/topic/161386-denime/?do=findComment&comment=3389575

In defence to Levi's, it's actual a full arc. The left side is just stitchted with an indigo thread. But I still agree with you

@JohnMIt's the Sorahikohime in their Indian natural indigo. The only pair with a long enough inseam.

@reallypeacedoff I don't think it changed much in the last 4 days until Decemer 31st:

@winteracr The Denime 220A fades when you look at it. it's the quickest fading denim I've ever worn. While the rise is indeed high an also higher than I usually like, it didn't feel this way when being worn. Front pockets or back pockets? Also Freewheelers is not fading this quickly, probably the slowest of the jeans you mentioned.

The AI models from the "Denim Chapter II" are back on the webshop but they were adjusted... So now we can be really sure why they were removed...this makes my pair probably one of the last being sold with the arcuate.

Probably the last video about the 1942

Not yet with you, right?

Little walk to the near by "biotope"

@ATWM now (2 weeks ago or so) all the AI models vanished from the webshops. Wonder what happened? Maybe the big L didn't like the arcs... Anyway, back to your question: honestly I have no idea. I will focus on the WMJ 4-5 days a week and wear other pairs on my "days off".

Good question! I think so

Disclaimer - AI was harmed writing this wall of text This was definitely one of my most irrational purchases – I have to admit that. For some reason, I visited the 45rpm website last autumn and admired their new denim collection. But given the prices, I quickly closed the page. Still, the particular pairs of natural indigo jeans with the Levi’s-style arcs stayed on my mind. In December, 45rpm appeared on the first page of Sufu again, and I found myself browsing their site and web shop once more. The AI models were still listed but mostly sold out. After checking the size charts, I realized that most of them would be too short for me anyway – except for one model with the right inseam length. Of course, it was sold out in what I thought would be my size. Out of curiosity, I clicked on “In-Store Availability” and saw that size 08-34 was still available in three stores in Japan. Slowly but surely, the idea of owning these jeans took root in my mind. I knew I’d need a proxy service that offered “In-Store Pick Ups.” So, I started searching and found a few options. I reached out to several and quickly received a response with a price estimate: 10% of the item price plus 40,000 Yen for the in-store purchase, not to mention the shipping from Japan to Germany and the additional PayPal fees. They justified the price by saying it was the busiest time of year in Japan (the first week of January right after New Year). At that price I could have just bought from the international web shop and wouldn’t have to deal with customs on top of all this. Since that was too expensive for me, I contacted other proxies – some with a decent homepage, some via Reddit, others on Instagram. Some conversations fizzled out, but one offered me a price I was comfortable with. They were based in Tokyo and called the store, if the jeans are in stock. A few days later, they told me the jeans were sold out. Interestingly enough, the 45 rpm web shop still listed the jeans available in this particular Tokyo store. I reached out to the pricier proxy again, as they could also purchase in Osaka and Kobe. I asked if they could order the jeans via mail order from the store or if I could wait until they were less busy (and therefore cheaper). They replied that 45rpm doesn’t do mail orders and that items sell out quickly – I should buy now. I also asked them if they would call the store before trying to buy in person to verify if the jeans were really available.: they quoted me 2,000 Yen for a mere call. On a whim, I contacted the 45rpm web shop and asked if mail orders from physical stores were possible – and they confirmed it! Immediately, I thought of my go-to proxy, “FromJapan.” I reached out, and they confirmed that the order was possible – for their basic fee of just 500 Yen. To be absolutely sure that the right jeans would be sent, I asked for photos of the label, size, and selvedge line. It took a while for the jeans to arrive and even longer to get the photos. Everything looked good until the last photo in the Imgur album showed a measuring tape indicating an inseam length of 73 cm instead of the expected 79 cm. Actually, I never asked for the inseam to be measured but boy was I glad they did it! I was torn but quickly realized: this wouldn’t work with that length. I asked if an exchange was possible, or if not, a return. After some waiting, they confirmed an exchange would be possible. I asked them to initiate the process and send new photos. Last week, the jeans arrived at FromJapan again. The photos confirmed that they were the correct jeans with the right inseam length of 79 cm. From the initial order on January 7th to their arrival on February 10th, this was the wildest rollercoaster ride I’ve ever had with buying a pair of jeans.

A bit more "formal"

Honestly, I voted for the standard patch/print with the contest design. But I expetced this fancy method to last longer as well. And damn, I haven't noticed he was using different buttons for the small buttons. Gonna check my pair now

Happy birthday @Dr_Heech!
