    Does anybody know about the fabric on the 107 jeans, if it is loose or tight weave? Now that I realize my PBJs are loose weave and keep stretching even though I am just sitting on my ass, it's important to know about the fabric.

    Also, their "One Wash" is simply raw/rigid denim washed once and they haven't tried to fade/give it a look? 

    No way is Orslow mainstream. It may have more stockists than other brands, but that doesn't mean anything. Some brands may only decide to have very limited stockists for whatever reasons, while others do not.

    The denim is normal weave? There is give in the denim, and waist can stretch easily enough

    Anyone happen to know the status of the 20th Anniversary S710XX16oz-18 release? Everything I've read made reference to the end of February. 

    They've arrived at stores. Mine should be with me next week

  3. You can say that about any artisanal brand.

    Orslow has a certain aesthetic to it. Clothing is mostly all based on classic military and workwear pieces, but with their own slight interpretation of it. Designs are simple, but often simple is the best, and that's their speciality. They don't really have a set fit, it seems to differ from piece to piece. I really like the fit of their ivy fit jeans, but do not like the fit of their button down shirts at all.

    Also I believe most of their fabrics are custom made, including their signature denim, which I am a big fan of.

    Guys what rakuten stores ship to USA and have a good product offering from orslow? 

    Pheb International

    They stock a lot of Orslow and also do collabs from time to time.

  5. I just collected my 727s from Rivet & Hide sale couple weeks back. It had already been washed by them, which saved me the trouble. I can see why people are such big fans of their denim. The greencast colour looks really good and overall it looks smart & sharp, but then looking close, it's hairy. It feels lot more hairier than it looks.

    Waist will easily stretch back out. Thigh is bit tighter than I would like but apart from that, I like the fit.

    Also I think those back pockets and belt loops are the best i've come across yet

    Thanks, Foxy2, for answering my question. It has become a moot point for me as I’ve learned in reading that the jeans are Sanforized and I do not buy Sanforized cotton garments. The only Sanforized denim I own is the Blue in Green/Momotaro collab; Ai dyed with silver buttons, aluminum rivets and an indigo dyed patch. I’ve worn them twice; there is just something about the feel of Sanforized cotton, probably all in my head!

    Sanforized at first can feel 'meh', maybe feel not much different to the mainstream jeans, but gets a lot better after a wash or two.

  7. Every now and then I think about the Joe Mccoys pair of jeans I came across at Pronto last year, the lot 904. Pointless, but I found some more info on it.

     

    "Five pocket denim with a cut similar to the 905 regular straight. One of the classic Joe McCoys models. The left hand twill produces a striking denim that will fade very nicely. The orange stitch looks great too. - Left hand twill denim - Orange stitching - Deer skin badge - 14.75 oz denim - Made in Japan. "

  8. Thanks man.

    From Hinoya measurements, they don't seem to have shrunk much then. If a size 29 is 31 inch waist, then I would need a size 30 I think (as i float around 32 inch waist), but thankfully for my wallet that size is sold out.

  9. Yea just properly soak it, or if Danny at rivetandhide has given you advice, then follow that. 

    It's potentially gonna be a very tight fit for first lot of wears, but the denim will stretch back out in the waist.

    Also once you soak, you wouldn't be able to return even if it still has tags. Not sure if this is what you were implying.

  10. Finally got my pair of 66xx today. Love me some hairy denim!

    Fit is good, but slightly big in the waist. This is where belt comes in handy. Probably will need to hem.

    Also the buttons on this pair of jeans is a right bitch. It was a real struggle to do the top button, and I gave up on the other buttons. The button holes seem slightly too small for the button. Anyone else have this problem?

  11. You should probably ask in the same questions thread. People who are interested in other brands and could recommend choices other than PBJ might not be checking PBJ thread.
