The following models have the thin X on the patch according to photos in that Lightning Denim Book. There may be others but the photos are too small to tell: Tokyo Kyoto 1988E new 505 new WW2 15th anniversary 606
-
Also, the thin ‘X’ on the patch rather than the thick, outline ‘X’ that represents XX models indicates that they’re not a 66XX pair doesn’t it? I hope that makes sense 🫠
-
That’s a great catch Tilmann, they’re in amazing condition. I had to refer to an old Lightning Denim Book from 2006 to find a picture of them! Did the listing describe them accurately?
-
^ 15th anniversary pair from 2003?
-
I’m surprised no-one has snapped up these W33 Kyotos for an attractive price. I can’t quite tell from the photos but they look nearly new.

Denim Blunders, Reflections and General Nonsense.

@Broark you could always spend some reflective time alone in the wilderness, like John the Baptist, or Aaron Rodgers. -
With the recent chat about ONI in the Unknown Japanese Brands thread, I thought I’d post these deadstock Oni Reds for sale on Yahoo auctions. I think they’re the ones that BiG used to sell about 15 years ago, alongside the Blues (both now discontinued) and are a wider, vintage cut, unlike most of their modern offerings. They may interest someone on here.

Denim Blunders, Reflections and General Nonsense.

Congratulations @Geeman, is your new job something similar to your old one? Congrats too @Broark! -
Oni thread - all the way back on pg 5. I quite liked them years ago when BiG sold the Oni Red and Oni Blue models but haven’t given them a second thought since. BS United is a pretty funny title though! 🤣

SUPERDENIM SMALL QUESTIONS THREAD (Use instead of making new threads)
Maynard Friedman replied to minya's topic in superdenim
^ I’d say it probably depends on the quality, type and thickness of leather used on the patch (I’m sure @Duke Mantee and others here can give a more informed view) but from my experience I wouldn’t go higher than 60°. Anything higher and you can turn the denim bland too - boil-washed jeans! -
Freewheelers, Bootleggers Reunion, Bubo, etc.

I think he may still be around but not active under a different username -
@MJF9 has one, not sure which fabric or size though.

SUPERDENIM SMALL QUESTIONS THREAD (Use instead of making new threads)
Maynard Friedman replied to minya's topic in superdenim
The Eternal Type II (if you can still find one) is a modern cut with longer body and sleeves and fantastic denim. -
^ That I really don’t know mate, hopefully someone who does can chime in.
-
The lack of a red tab on your jeans or any Sugar Cane items manufactured post-2006ish is almost certainly for ‘other’ reasons. I’m sure you’re playing with us here @MJF9 😆
-
Who bought the 43s then? Shredwin?
-
I’d send them back and ask for a new pair.
-
Regardless of the intercontinental price differential, what do owners of the new SC WW2 garments think? How do they compare to CSF for example, which have (price and sales policies aside) been held in high regard by many on here for their attention to detail and period accuracy, etc?
-
Time to start a new thread for TCB rather than leave it in the "Unknown Japanese Brands" one as it's very well known now. Post all your TCB non-competition stuff here.
