RESOLUTE by hayashi-san!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

You are absolutely right

The same pair with higher shoes and without a cuff

[propellerbeanie]

Did something I didn't need (but wanted) to... Measurements for those interested:

Waist 40cm
Front rise 28cm
Back rise 38cm
Thigh 30.5cm
Knee 21.5cm
Hem 19.25cm
Inseam 78cm

I'll take some more pics and a fit pic later. Definitely my slimmest pair, but still a welcome addition

[Max Power]

Startet my next pair, same size as before. 

Postwash vs raw

[Max Power]

Just saw that leg twist was discussed. My new pair had non (of course) in raw state but it developed the typical strong twist after washing, at least on the left leg.

Great pairs @Max Power 

What inseam do you after wash on a 36 model (both jeans 36?)

[Max Power]

@unionmade

It shrunk from 91cm to 84 cm. I think the final length is 82 to 83 cm

[Cold Summer]

Those look good @Max Power, are you going to do anything differently as far as washing goes to try to get a different fade from your first pair?

[FeloniousMonk]

@Max Power damn those are beautiful! Amazing that the patch holds up so perfectly intact after what must be quite a few washes as well. Would love to get a pair faded to that very light blue for a summer jean.

It really says something when someone wears a piece of clothing for so long, and then get the exact same thing when it wears out. 

[HGS]

Nice pair, and nice shirt.  Even a killer has to get paid.

Agree that it's a strong statement.

 

Maxpower, what makes this pair so special? I've seen you thrash many pairs of samurai, warehouse, etc...but it seems like you wear resolute the longest?

[propellerbeanie]

@Max Power Relocating the red tab for this pair or leaving as is?

Nice one Flo! The denim on this picture looks quite darker and streakier than the denim looked on previous versions.
Ed said something that Hayashi-san changed the denim 2 or 3 times already so maybe this pair will also turn out different than your old pair

[Max Power]

In fact I thought the denim looked a bit mory hary and streaks but otherwise feels the same, also the reaction of the denim is similar. We will see... 

I'm sure that I will rebuy this model over and over.

Yes, I will do that on this pair as well.

@Cold Summer

I will try to wear them a bit longer before the first wash as my last pair came pre-owned. But I will still wash it as often as they need it. 

@HGS

Cheers Mate! 

 @1fookntitefd

What I like about the pair is not only the denim and fading but also the cut. It's slim yet comfy and I just love that they are some sort of an understatement pair. And they fade just like back in the days, roping, leg twist and colour are on point. 

It says a lot about hayashi that he keeps making this his main model and not trying gimmicks like heavy denim, neps, golden buttons etc.

Well, I just ordered a pair of 710.. I hope they fit now

[propellerbeanie]

I have been wearing my 710 for a few days now. They're the one-wash version, but I reckon I might chuck them in the washing machine and dryer to soften them up. I've been busy so I'll take some pics over the weekend.

Crossings fingers! Your first pair? 

[tigerstrom]

Yeah it's the first pair of Resolute! I sized up to a 36, then I can wash them more often and not worry about shrinkage @Max Power

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Where did you buy from? Looking forward to some fit pics!

[Max Power]

If it doesn't fit I might take them off you. Which length did you go for? 

[tigerstrom]

I bought them from Frans Boone in Netherlands. I've never bought anything from them before but the price was about the same as if I ordered them from Japan (if they get stuck in Swedish customs, which they always do) 

 

I think they might be short for you @Max Power I got 36/33

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Yep, best option for buying when you are in the EU.

I also bought from them recently (same size as you). It's nearly the same price if you buy from Japan and when you get hit by customs, it's even cheaper to buy from Fran Boone.

[Max Power]

Yes indeed, they would be too short

Nah Flo, not for the real Hayashi-San look!

[JohnM]

^ Right b_F, but does Flo have a pair of Alden cordovan loafers? ;-)

[Broark]

I’d like a pair of 710’s someday, need to thin the collection out a bit. Probably would pick up a 38x34 and wash how Hayashi-San recommends. The rise on the 710 is higher than the 711, correct?

[Bobbo]

Neat! Lots of Resolute love lately. Rotating my 710's now as well. Such a good fit and soft fabric.

Yes, as far as I know. I find the rise to be perfect, just in the middle between too low and too high.

I had pairs of both in my hands today. FWIW took very quick rough measurements (*so  definitely need validating elsewhere*) - on one wash pairs the rise was just on the 11 inch mark on both.

711 much wider and straighter. 710 slimmer and tapered which, to my eye, seemed more suited to the rise.

Sure this is more accurately covered above though!
