  1. Of the ones I've put some wear into I'd still go for the Denime 66XX, new owner or not. I love the XX denim, it feels thick but cool to wear. It's starts off smooth and hairy but as time has gone on it has become more slubby to the touch. These seem to fade fast and I love to see that electric blue popping through. And in the 5 months I've had them I've not noticed a single thread breaking.

    Evisu No1 denim is worth every penny though in my opinion, very rough to the touch. I just from time to time find the fit uncomfortable. Again though not a single problem with the construction.

    Resolute though I've grown to appreciate them I find the waist too big for the thigh. Sizing down is the way to go if the thighs will work as the waist stretches a lot.

    I wouldn't have bought another pair apart from the meeting with Hayashi San and getting signed pair, but I think that the size down will work well.

    The denim though is just so different to what I am used to from Japanese manufacturers. Once the hair has gone you are left with flat, thin feeling denim, like a smoother APC. Honestly I wonder why some of these Japanese IG bloggers have 4-5 pairs. Sounds like I'm not that keen on them all in all but they are my most worn pair of all my jeans so there must be something about them that I love.

    Studio D'artisan cut is nice enough and they always make quality stuff. The denim on these feels quite open and almost woolly to me. Always feel hot when I wear them.

    Fullcount is the 1800, so it's the 1108 cut with different denim. I had these tapered as they looked like flares on me. Just average for me, nothing special.

  2. Those sugar cane have been on my list for a while now. I remember seeing a worn in pair once and they looked fantastic, as do those above.

    Evisu 2000 No1 denim. I love the feel of No1 denim, but for me the fit is a bit weird. Love the fit on the legs but generally by the end of the day I find them a bit constricting on my man parts.

  4. OK, I'll put some photos up as this goes along.

    Starting with Resolute 710.

    The worn in ones are size 34x34 and the new ones are 33x33, which I think will be best once worn.

  5. Vintage Nylon that I found in a market in Bangkok. I first saw them on here from, I think, capsicum fried meat.

    Anyway I've decided to bring these into rotation now as I just felt like something new.

  6. Hope you enjoy your them Mr Freak.

    I think I said this before but Hayashi San told me that resolute denim also comes from the same mill as his old denime denim did.

    The denim is obviously different to most other brands and is almost boring at times, but I've grown to love the difference compared to other jeans in my wardrobe.

    They are definitely similar to the 20th anniversary pair, maybe if he'd have stuck at Denime this is where he'd be now.
