I'm also really tempted. Whats the thigh measurement on the 34 waist BiG-style, b_f, if you don't mind, please?

I've got a pair of Tag 34 in the mail en route right now. I can update in a few days. Likely not until after the weekend.

I emailed Naoki at Pants Shop Avenue yesterday and he said March or April.

Those look fantastic. The size charts seem to be different on the same page. The one on the left you scroll down to is a universal 81cm inseam on all sizes, but the link on the right has different inseams depending on the waist size.

Looking at picking up a pair of 50s and was wondering if someone can confirm they are quite stretchy. Pretty sure Tag 34 is for me, but I would need it to stretch to 34.5-35 in the waist.

I think they are all the same.

As a comparison, I have the OA02 in a 35, and SC Okis in a 33. The SC is roomier, but not by a ton. I would feel ok going to a 36 in the OA for a little roomier fit.

Good stuff @mpukas. I did an instacop of the same shirt (same size too!). Its so amazing in colour. The Deep indigo/electric blue really pops accentuated by the white and tan stitching.

I also dig how thick the yarns used are. The only flannels I own to compare are an IH UHF and a Two Moons. I thought I was a snaps guy (I probably still am, but not the dealbreaker I thought). I'm excited to see how this ages too.

@mpukas. Oni has never struck me in any particular way, but something has always just been not up my alley. Those particular ones actually caught my eye a bit. Care to share the shrinking results? I'm between a 33 and 34.

How old are they? How many wears? Comments on the 36 v 35 fit?

Looks great julian-wolf. Love the colorway, and the little change purse is a nice touch. Wish they did a western version with snaps. You buy direct from japaneseselvagejeans?

That's like asking an artist to not sign their painting.

Never done a contest before, but anything in the realm of OA02 has my interest, especially given that there's nothing specifically drawing my eye currently. Look forward to size charts.

Great shirt. the Labour Union stuff looks pretty swell. Mini-review?

Fullcount appear to be releasing a new R denim? Pre order on their site but little detail. 

Well, the R is for Rough and it uses and American/Aussie blend. This the first non-Zimbabwe denim they've made?

anyone else really feeling the new Olive Whipcord type 3 jacket?

And how! I've forced myself to take a break on new jacket acquisitions unfortunately.

2.5" in total meaning 1.25" when measured laying flat? And we talk about a one-wash/shrunken pair and not stretching 2.5" past the raw measurements?
If the answer to above is yes, then yes, the 13.7oz denim usually can stretch that much.

2.5" past the one wash measurements and total. Meaning would a 32" go up to 34.5"

How stretchy are the 2 mainline fabrics? If I wanted to size down 1 in the 1101 for a slightly slimmer profile, would the waist stretch 2.5 inches?

I have the Chambray workshirt. Great shirt, fit and details for the price. OD's measurements were spot on.

As I spend the majority of the day on my feet, boots can be a little much sometimes. I usually wear Chuck 2 lows but also recently picked up a pair of Buttero Tanino lows.

Sounds excellent Bobbo. Been wanting a pair of Ooe's for a while but the 02 cut is a tad on the slim side for me and they ahven't done an 01 in a while. Just hoping the post-soak inseam is longer than 33" and more inline with the Saddle Pants.

Edit - to add: Emailed S&S and they said they are going to be raw with an inseam length of 38"

Here's a couple shots of my D1728. beautiful_freak was asking about progress a little while back.

4 months/ 4 washes

Love it. MF really nails their jackets.

What shirt is that?

Anyone has some evo pics of the D1728? How is this soft fabric evolving?

I have about 2 months of wear on mine. They are quite resistant to fading. Just a little bit in crotch and on the back pocket where my wallet is but that's about it. Nothing that pictures seem worth it for. I can attest to the softness of the fabric. The back of the top iron button has developed some rust already which is interesting.
