  1. Re: Sakurastyle-Kobe on Rakuten. I have bought a pair of Samurai Jins couple of month ago as my HWDC pair (too small for my fat ass now, regretly), denim was pristine, great, very pleased. Excellent service from them, received them within few days to EU without any custom tax, pp accepted, great service. Would use them again for sure

  2. Great post and collection, Youthxattak.

    Can we see your 130 fit pic as well? Your slender body looks more like a 129 type, regardless I believe you make them 130 look fabulous on you

  3. So, this is my woad 129 after 3 month.

    As I said before, cotton stitching is really weak, sadly. I see this issue on every used pair posted here, mainly on 129s (even on 1.5 month old Henry Wongs pair, page 34).

    Originally I opted for Tender jeans for HWDC2 but considering this weak chain of construction, I would rather avoid them. I cant imagine stitches will last for two years and I do not really want to restitch myself whole jeans.

    Anyway, personally, I will wait for polycotton stitching with my next purchase of Tender jeans.

  4. Hello, I would like to share my experiences with Tender jeans. Unbiased view onto both the products and also sellers.

    I have four pairs so far, all bought new from official retailers. I am located in EU mainland.

    Pros: whole idea, denims, cuts, slow but deep and strong evo

    Cons: soft cotton stitching, non consistent sizing, not so perfect retailing

    1. Goodhood UK, type 130 woad, size 3. All good, fast shipping, no letter from William received.

    2. OEN UK, type 129 woad, size 2. Perfect, fastest delivery, personal note from store, great email comms, letter from William received

    3. Hickorees US, type 129 HillSide Ed no.2, size 2. Worst experience ever, real nightmare, had to urge them one week to ship, received after more than one month from my payment. They use most horrible international shipping service, Priority Mail (slower than basic First Class), had to pay custom fee GBP 100, no letter from William received. Sizing on this pair size 2 was way too small, 2 inches smaller than woad dyed same size and same 129 type pair, useless

    (comparison to Blue In Green in NYC is insane: I received my jeans from BIG via EMS within 3 working days w/o any custom fees)

    4. Goodhood UK, type 130 wattle. Ordered size 32 (according to their offer), expecting size 3, received huge size 4. Fast free delivery, perfect service. No letter from William received.

    I am a huge fan of Tender, William and his work. Anyway I would prefere direct sale via Trestle shop for EU customers. Also accurate sizing chart to each type and pair should be more than appropriate.

    Stockists could spoil your business, William... I would never order from Superdenim for example, they even substitute dye type of your jeans in their descriptions...

    Writing all this just as a feedback helping you improve your business idea, no disrespect or anything.

    Good luck and thanks for reading
