That’s the shoe that let’s Magic do what he was born to do!

I support this decision. You’ll never again be this young with this much time off from work. Take the opportunity and go! It might cost a bit to get there, but the weak Yen will make things affordable once you arrive. I’ll bet Hoosiers would welcome a visit if you made it to Kyoto. It would definitely be the trip of a lifetime.

I am looking to move a few pairs of jeans, hoping that some of you will get good use out of them. I've posted these for sale elsewhere and dropped the prices for this SuFu listing as a "pay it forward" for all the great info I've received from this community. I'm also open to reasonable offers. If you see something you like, let me know and let's see if we can work out a deal. I'll ship internationally with the actual shipping costs added to the sale price. I'm happy to answer questions about the jeans, too. All measurements taken using the BiG method.

I think contact via Instagram is the primary option for Tilden, currently.

Me too. Zippers and snap closures are anathema to lots of denim heads. Roy posted an IG story saying that he sold his remaining denim stock to Tilden. That would include whatever black seed denim he had left, I suppose. Having a pair of jeans made with Roy’s White Oak Cone Mills denim might be selling point enough for some.

Long shot here, but does anyone have an unworn/gently used pair of the Warehouse x Hinoya 2021hxx in size 36 that they’d be willing to part with? I’ve had my eye on Yahoo Auctions for a bit and have only seen smaller sizes turn up. Would love to snag another pair if I can find one.

With the 800xx, go by the measurements, not the tag size. Recent lots of the 800 have been undersized compared to lots produced 5-8 years ago. The measurements you posted illustrate this well. Size 36 measures 84cm at the waist according to both Second Sunrise and Hinoya. The 14oz denim will stretch some, but it’s not as forgiving as the Banner Denim in my experience. Getting the waist to stretch to 90cm is possible but it won’t be comfortable to wear the jeans out of the wash and they may not ever get to 90cm. The 800xx lots produced in the mid 2010s were much more consistent in sizing. I had a couple pairs in size 36 that measured 47cm across raw and shrank to 44.5cm after multiple washes. With wear, they stretched to 45.5cm but were still snug in the top block. If I were to get a pair of 800xx now I’d go with a tag size 38 (my waist measurement is still 45.5cm).

Bravo! Those look incredible.

My first thought seeing your pics was “those buttons look noice!” Looking forward to seeing everyone’s fit and fade pics.

Oh hells yes! Great news!!

As the end of the year draws closer, I'd like to reserve a pair of Imperial Jeans in size 36 for January 1, 2024 when you start giving them away for free. 😁

My wife and I visited Japan recently and made our way to Hoosiers while in Kyoto. Those who have purchased items from Seiichiro in the past already know this, but he and his apprentice, Hinata, are absolute gems of human beings. They went above and beyond to welcome us to the store and get me fitted for some Freewheelers denim. It was cool to hear stories about the Japanese denim world from someone with insider knowledge. Plus, Seiichiro and Hinata are a great hang. Best dudes. One of the highlights of our trip. I highly recommend a visit when you're in Kyoto.

Same jeans aside from the inseam length and the details you noted. The Self Edge version of the 800 was special ordered and had a longer inseam, roughly 34” post-wash. The 800 currently for sale on the Warehouse website has a raw inseam measurement of 33.8”. That will shrink to around 31” after washing/soaking.

Looks like they are in stock here. I’ve never ordered from this shop so I can’t vouch for it. https://www.whitefeathermfg.com/produkt/lot-800/
