In case anyone is intersted, I picked up the 714 in 33/30.  Gave them a hot wash in the machine and hung them to dry, inseam shrank almost 1/2" and all other dimensions 1/4" give or take a bit.  Inseam right at 28" now.  Wore them 1 day and what needed to stretch did so fairly quickly.  Lovely denim and cut.  I wear the 710 in 34.

Do their jeans come washed or raw?

Denime S-Type. Size 33. Orizzonti Era 

I’m pretty sure they’ve never been worn. I’ve only washed them and stored them.

$200 but open to offers!

 

Measurements please?

Anyone with the 714 and 30 length (tag) can measure what the inseam is after a couple washes?

If anyone has a size 33 or 34 and can share all other measurements after a couple washes as well, I would greatly appreciate it.

Looking good @shredwin_206.  What is the knee measurement on those?

They come one washed and to be honest those one are not really W34 but closer to a W36 (all my denim are between 36 to 38) but this pair is coming from an older batch without the new tag inside. I know that at the time they used to be not very precise with the size. Maybe now it's different.

The measurement :

Waist 49cm

Inseam (custom made) 86cm

Tight 34cm

Front rise 31cm

Back rise 44cm

Hem 21cm

Do not use my measurement to buy because they should have changed. 

Thanks!  Mind sharing the knee measurement please?

@mk3radial measurements of your size 34 would be great, please include the knee.  
 

Do they come raw or one washed?

i have my Roy stuff on the Bay if any interest.

I had the joy of visiting A&E recently after i was in a hit and run with a black cab.. i'm too tight/northern to pay for parking so i left my car in one of the nearby 'disadvantaged' neighbourhoods.. in other words, rough as fuck!.. I got to the entrance and there is some young workman in hi-viz pacing up and down bleeding from a bandaged hand wound.. i got in there and it was packed! I checked in and sat down on one of the few remaining seats.. after an hour or so some dude walked in and pushed himself to the front of the queue demanding they give him the results of his blood tests.. they informed him that his results would go to his GP which caused him to flip and he started shouting at the top of his voice that Jesus Christ will bring armageddon onto the reception staff (i'm not sure what passage from the bible he was quoting) unless they gave him his results.. they said "we don't have your results.. you need to go to your GP" so he flipped out again and said that Jesus would bring the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse to reign terror upon A&E... this went on for a good 1.5hrs (it kept me mildly entertained) until he looked at his watch, said he had to be at his brothers by 12.30 and he'd be back for his results tomorrow..

 

Next.. some dude called Piers (fucking Piers!) came in and explained that he was a student from darn sarf studying in Sheff, he was renting a flat above a kebab joint and some kebab smoke had escaped through the vent into his bathroom making him feel unwell (fucking millennials!) he had a petition to have the kebab shop closed down and a letter from his father ... i though he'd just come for a moan but they rushed him straight through and he came back with a BP monitor and an oxygen mask.. wtf!.. I'm sat here with a broken wrist!

 

Next a farmer turned up with a bag of pears, crook in one hand and two spaniels running loose.. A&E was packed, the dogs were jumping on the charis, they jumped onto some terminally bewildered old woman in a wheelchair... he started trying to give the bag of pears away.. "i've got too many pears" he kept saying.. "i've brought them here to give to people"  but he also looked like he'd recently shit himself with a big brown smear around his arse, he might have sat in a cowpat (i like to think he had) i've since found out that's it's almost impossible to give perfectly good pears away while you're covered in excrement.. he couldn't give them to reception because they were behind glass so he tried giving them to the woman who was mopping up the blood from the previously mentioned workman..eventually leaving them on a chair..

 

Next a young girl came in with her parents.. it was really upsetting to watch.. i'm not sure what was wrong with her, possibly a neurological condition or a complete breakdown.. she looked like any other 12yr old girl but she was fighting invisible demons (both mentally and physically) the staff couldn't calm her down, she thought the nurses were in cahoots with the demons.. i've seen friends flip out in a similar fashion through substance abuse but she was 12 and from a traditional muslim family, i'd be surprised if she was allowed out after 8pm nr' mind indulging in recreational drugs on a school day.. i hope she's ok.

 

The bleeding workman went to be stitched up and the seat at the side of me became free.. a chap in one of those white v-neck cricket jumpers asked if he could sit down, he asked if i was ok?.. (by this point i had been there for 5hrs and he'd been there for 6.5) I said yeah and I started to explaine what had happened...

He said "tell you what i recommend... Haldi Doodh!.. he went on to say.. "Pfft!.. y'know.. this modern medicine has been around for what? 200yrs.. these traditional medicines have been used for 2000 and they work just as well" the irony of him being in A&E was probably lost but i was charmed, he said he used to play professional cricket in Pakistan and suffered from a lot of hand fractures.. he would drink Haldi Doodh (sip it, slowly and don't get the milk too hot) and after a good nights sleep he'd be as right as rain, the fractures miraculously healed.

 

Eventually after 7hrs and 20mins it was my turn, i was x-rayed, referred to the fracture clinic and released.. when i got back to the car the previously deserted street of terrace houses was heaving with close to 100 people, Romanians of all ages clustered in family groups (i appreciate, a different social culture) behind my car was double yellow lines and a Skoda with its hazard lights flashing.. i walked up to my car and one stocky dude whistled to some other dude down the street and i was instantly surrounded by folks giving me grief... for what i don't know?  they was speaking Romanian.. i can only assume that i'd parked in someone's spot for the last 8hrs and they'd taken offense to it.. last thing i wanted was to be in a fist fight with 100 Romanians.. at least not while both wrists were in splints.

 

 

Huf! what an exhausting day.. i'm glad i don't venture out very often..

 

Anyway... Stay safe out there super-peeps!

I thought I had it bad in Narnia, the Bahamas.  You are right there too.  
 

Hope you heal well.  Enjoy the tea!  Lol

Hate to ask this again, but anyone know if these be on sale via normal retail at all? I'm still looking to get a pair but seeing as I am not hype enough to know about pre-orders (esp if it's not posted here) I never know about this stuff. I messaged them awhile back about a pair, but Ryo told me that I couldn't order them since I didn't already own a pair - it seemed he was sure I'd mess up the sizing. 

Not sure if the same jeans but I think Standard and Strange is supposed to be receiving a new OOE shipment soon. 
 

I told Ryo the jeans I have now and their sizes for this order as well.  I went up 2 for all.

Finally got a chance to wash my new OA01XX after receiving last week. Probably the all around best pair of Ooe's yet IMO (though 03 cut remains my favorite fit). Fabric seems to have fairly fast fading properties based on some crocking out of the washing machine, but it's a perfect weight for all seasons:

Also gave my 02's a wash, as they'll be relegated to random house/chore wear now that the 01's have arrived. Around 8 months of effective wear, and countless washes:

The two together:

Hey, those OA01’s are the new XX4 denim correct?  How did you wash them and how much shrinkage did you get?

I picked up mine today.  When going through the ordering process and emailing OOE a few times, I got the impression from them this denim shrinks a lot.  Ryo suggested up to 4” on the inseam.  

Any advice how to repair a gouge/deep scratch on a work boot?

Heading out to watch FA Cup final.  YNWA!

Brand new Pras Shellcap

they do look a lot different with some wear back on them.  much better and they are coming along nicely.  

i am on my second day with mine.  they do stretch quite easily...may have to wash again to try and shrink a bit more.  liking them so far though

Decided to give my S601XX a wash after about 3.5 months of 4/5 days a week easy wear

Would normally wait about twice as long to wash but they felt like they needed it.  I expect to hang on a good few months until the next wash, wherupon it'll be interesting to compare the denim to @Broark's fine-looking pair above, given his monthly washing regime

After this second 40C wash, the measurements reverted to the same as after the first 40C wash

The first two pics are pre-wash in sunshine; the rest are post-wash under grey skies

How did you wash them?  They look like they changed a lot, color and shape.
