Capsicum Fried Meat

It doesn’t matter that you wear your jeans  prior to the starting date for a couple days. As matter of fact, I believe any Japanese contestants will get the jeans before us. So you won’t be the only early bird.

Fit is great. More comfortable with lil bit room. Try dude ranch shirt next time.

The selvage ID is faded pink color this time which is different with it used to be on the oxidized denim used on several model.

The idea is the same to reproduce the dead stock jeans found in a warehouse in Wyoming. I guess the treatment method  is still the same. Maybe optimization on the process this time. New denim, same concept.

For sure. I need to post my warehouse jeans again since all the host links are dead.

Needless to mention the faded tab. Everthing is just so good. It is TOP CLASS. The oxidation fabric jeans are so rare back in the day. You cannot miss as a hardcore Warehouse fan.

This is the biggest 25th anniversary release. It's so good to see the 1000XX coming back. Ths oxidation fabric.

Hey Caps, hows the old denim collection going? i remember you having a pair of Porky's? any chance of an update in the unknown JP thread?.. also do you still have the old Nylon war model?

I do have lots of old denim. But I ended up sold most of them because of the force of nature.  If I can't fit into the jeans I just sold them. I don't like to collect.

I do own a pair of NYLON FN087 WW2 model but I can't remember if I sold them or not, either way they still be new. I think volvo owns the Porky's, not me.

Incredible collections.

^ guess what I tried for years?

I've seen small sizes like 31 and 32, so hard to find bigger size like 34 and 36. I guess you couldn't fit into size 33.

You need to source a pair of Kyoto model which is vital to Hayashi and Denime into your collection.

YES. That's what I proposing for when pocket fabric option revealed.

Eventually.

@Duke Mantee Thanks for sharing the historical info. Really helpful.

Plus, here are two blogs from a japanese collector, showing the result of calculating the weight of original WW2 Levis jeans. Seems like there is no big difference on weight between WW2 denim and denim before this period. No proof for such 14oz denim theory. Atleast from the experimental results.

THEY ARE MADE OF SELECTED TEN OUNCE AMERICAN DENIM.

So there is no theory saying relatively heavy weight denim been used during WW2.

They should toss all different kinds of pocket patterns into bag or box and mix them up. Then pick up two no seeing before sewing.

The paint is indeed continues on the under part. Check original pair of S501XX.

I even thought that shirt was real. Well done.

With heavy weight denim or raw jeans, it’s relatively easy to get the honeycomb fade.

Does the total number of japan contestants include several ppl registered here on sufu? If so, the total sufu number should be deducted.

THIS IS HUGE

The patch design is so great and lovely.

Salute to @Nayuta.

Correct. 23:59 Japan time
