My jeans traveled back in time. Left Japan on the 27th and arrived in Oakland on the 26th Hopefully get them tomorrow!

Officially in! Just ordered a one wash 34 x 31. First time ordering a tag size of 34 for me so I'm feeling slightly nervous but this was per Ryo's advice over email so I'm putting my trust in his judgement. He stated that "... we do think a relaxed fit will look much better on this model...", which I can get on board with for the extra comfort. Canadian living in SF so put me down for Canada / USA.

@ReverendGlasseye I'm 5'11" and 170 lbs with an athletic build. I tried on the size 40 when originally purchasing and I wasn't able to wear a hoodie underneath without being restricted. It would have been single layer only underneath.

@ReverendGlasseye I actually have this exact same jacket in the same size. Owned since December 2017 and worn a few times per week since then. Washed every few months. Here are my measurements I took today. The jacket was measured with all buttons done up and has been worn a single time after its latest wash:

Shoulder to shoulder: 19.25

Pit to pit: 22

Sleeve from shoulder: 25.5

Back from bottom of collar: 24.5

I think the difference in the pit to pit measurement is due to the fact that I pulled the fabric a bit tighter (but not too tight). I personally really love this jacket. It's in that sweet spot of measurements for me. It's boxy enough so that I can wear a hoodie comfortably under it without restricting movement, but not too boxy that it looks sloppy. Let me know if I can answer any more questions.

Ooe Yofukuten OA02 x Standard and Strange 2017. Purchased in May 2017 and worn frequently for about 1.5 years. Washed in washing machine and hung dry every month or two. Enjoyed watching these evolve over time to reveal a ton of character. They're feeling a little snug these days so they don't get much wear  DM me an offer if you want to take them off my hands!

That's really cool, apparently, it was just for SS19, the new season has no tabs. Makes me wish I'd copped a pair! 

Ordered a pair of 105s off Denimio about a month ago and they had this feature. Maybe get in touch with them and see if they're still carrying those models

@laismemoir I have the same jacket in one wash. I put it in the washer right after purchasing just to make sure all the shrinkage was out and the measurements barely budged. If its too big, best to size down. I'm 5'11", 170 lbs with an athletic build. I ordered both a 40 and a 42. I could only fit a t shirt underneath the 40 so I went with the 42 since I wanted to layer and have more freedom of movement

Going to be in Thailand soon and want to visit Pronto Denim. Looks like they have a number of stores. Does anybody know what the flagship store is?

Made it to Bangkok and can answer this question! Asked an employee and they said the Siam Square SOI 2 store is their flag ship. https://goo.gl/maps/4pEys6abGr22.

It's multiple stories and they seemed to carry all of their products as opposed to some other stores that just carry a subset. So many collaborations! Picked up the full count x Pronto 10th anniversary pair.

To those that bought the raw EX denim, after shrinking and then some wear did the waist stretch back to raw measurement or go even further? I'm looking at the 0105EX and deciding between the 30 (33.1" waist raw) and 31 (33.9" waist raw) depending on waist stretching. A 33.5 - 34" waist would be ideal.

Standard and Strange says that the one-washed collab ooe models stretch up to 3 inches in the waist and to only size up 1 from your regular size. Does this make sense or would sizing up two be better since they shrink from tag size?

I sized up one from my typical tag size for S&S x Ooe Yofukuten - OA02-510. I'm usually a 32 in most brands and I went with a 33. This is also the highest rise of jeans I have worn. They're around 12" whereas most other brands I wear are around 10.5" - 11". Waist was snug at first but stretched quickly to fit perfectly. It definitely would have been too large if I sized up 2. Legs are a little wider than I expected compared to the model wearing them on their web store but very comfortable.

Seeing these pics of jackets is getting me interested in pulling the trigger one. The measurements I'm seeing on denimio look they have a reasonable sleeve length for longer arms. I'm 5'11", 165 lbs; not sure if I should be ordering a 40 or 42 in unwashed. Leaning towards the 42 for extra chest and shoulder room.

Can anybody comment on the roominess of the arms? They look quite slim in the photos I'm seeing. Do they restrict movement at all? Can you fully bend your arm inward? Can you stretch both arms forward, such as if you were on a bike?

Thanks!

What are the odds you still have these for sale?
