@Collin crushing it. I really like those jackets.

@vIGGiou riou damn buddy what a view.

@Planetarium I had no idea! Learning something new every day.

Another to illustrate the texture @lee porter yes that is correct, but the shop they came from lists them as "tight silhouette"

Anyone know about the relationship between L.C. King and Pointer Brand? I know they’re the same company, but wondering what makes Pointer so much cheaper than the former. I’ve had a hickory stripe chore coat for years (actually bought from a member here back in the day), and just came across a BNWT hickory chore coat from L.C. King today, which I bought. Is Pointer like, the son of L.C. King?

@Muck Dynasty These are unsanforized, at least from everything i've read. Looking forward to getting the shrinkage out at some point, but that wont be for at least a few months.

@1fookntitefd whoops hem is about 7in. I really wish these had shrunken more, but they fit nicely, considering the thigh has slimmed down a bit. Maybe I’ll post measurements when I wash them next but that won’t be for at least a few months. These are listed as “tight silhouette” but in my opinion they are much more of an aggressively tapered leg, which is what I noticed upon viewing the posted measurements. The thigh is much roomier than my other “tapered” fits, and I have big thighs! edit: Another thing I noticed right off was how the ink printed on the patch (“Petero 18” and the lot no.) have almost completely been washed away

Eviso Petero 18 (EGD2000TH001) Size 35 Measurements in inches Pre-wash: Waist - 34.6 Front Rise - 11.4 Upper Thigh - 12.8 Inseam - 32.7 Hem - 7.1 Rear Rise - ? Post-wash: Waist - 34 Front Rise - 11.2 Upper Thigh - 12 Inseam - 31.5 Hem - 6.9 Rear Rise - 14.8 I hot washed these at a laundromat, but it looks like they could absolutely shrink more. A little puzzling. I did also walk in them about 5 miles while they were still slightly damp, so I'm sure that contributes somewhat. Anyway, the laundromat has front loading machines, but my washer (currently out of service) is a top loading machine. I theorize that they weren't in contact with hot water for long enough to yield a ton of shrinkage. No problem! The texture is incredible, and it’s interesting to feel the ridges that travel vertically along the fabric I think I'm gonna throw some oil on that patch This is my first pair of Evisu, and I'm looking forward to a nice adventure with them best

Petero 18 showed up today. I just finished hot-washing them, and gave them a hot dry for 15min or so. They're just the slightest bit damp. Man the texture on these is pretty incredible and I imagine the vertical falling will be out of this world. Pics to come.

Im sure a philosophical discussion would fit in quite nicely in the appropriate thread within Superculture. :——^-)

Question for folks in the US.. Have you made a return/exchange with Denimio? if so, how long did it take to get your new pair? I'm just getting anxious, and the fact that the DHL courier is still not here over an hour after scheduled end of pick-up window adds to the anxiety lol

Thanks, surprisingly, these were very snug in the waist, and I am opting to exchange for size 35. edit: I plan to (as with all my unsanforized pairs), wash hot and then hang dry. The main thing I'm concerned with is the length ending up too short. I have a feeling it'll end up perfect though. They're back in the bag they showed up in, waiting for a shipping label! I'll post pics when I get my size 35 :)))

@Planetarium these just showed up. How much did your pair shrink? Length and Waist

@Planetarium good to know! The measurements make it seem more like a heavy taper than an overall tight fit, but we’ll see. I hope I sized correctly. Thankfully I can return them if not. I’m a 33 in Samurai’s S0511xx, and picked a 34 in this Evisu.

Anyone messed with the 18oz Petero18 fabric? I just ordered a pair of the "tight silhouette". That fabric looks real dope though. I will post pics when they get here.
