@roomtemplacroix hello fellow coffee person. I worked in the same town for a handful of years. Now I’m back in my hometown still working in coffee. We have a puqpress and I’m significantly less covered-in-grounds after work these days.

@busterthehuman i worked in it for about 20 shifts and then washed it. going to maintain a similar pattern. i'm not sure how this denim will look with frequent washing so i'm apprehensive to the jump the gun

 

@roomtemplacroix: I have the same shirt, wearing it right now, bought it in August 2017. The shirt keeps it’s dark colour, it does not fade fast. I believe SDA denim is known to fade slow/keep its colour. But my guess is you are beating the shirt up more than I do, which is good for nice fade. I Will post a pic, all the best from the Netherlands

I have the workshirt version. It's a really nice fabric, but it takes for ever to break it in.

I’m looking for a pair of SDA D-1507 RAW in size 34. Anyone have a pair for sale or know of a retailer who still has stock, let me know. Thanks

Laundry day led to taking some photos of my 47s and then the lightning seemed good so swapped them out to take pictures of these sda wwii jeans. These have a bunch of washes and a couple trips to the dryer.

Dumb question but does anyone know how to order from their site while living in the states? There are a few shirts that their online shop has that I can’t seem to find anywhere else. Sorry if this isn’t the correct thread to ask!

Unless this hasn't (recently) changed, you can't order from SdA's own webshop if you are outside of Japan. They have their overseas partners.
But if those don't have the stuff you want, the only way I see is to use a proxy service to buy it for you from SdA's webshop.

 

@neatcool don't use SutoCorp. Much too expensive. They charge 8% on the total costs. Use Zenmarket or FromJapan. With From Japan you just pay 300 Yen for the basic plan.

Thank you dude! I’ll check out FromJapan

Crossposting from waywt, thought this thread needed a bump.

are these SDAs considered vintage by now?

[beautiful_FrEaK 1,676,101]

^how old are they?

[Thanks_M8 3,586]

^definitely pre 2007, so 15 years minimum by now, since they got the old arcs and Tab, but don't have any more Info on them, no tags left as I got them on eBay.

stitching seems to be poly if that might help...

[LazyS 1,365]

@beautiful_FrEaK I gave the D1708 a couple more hot washes and they fit really comfy now

[IDIOT BITCH 386]

hi sufu. it’s been a while

D5602 with some wear on it

 

[JDelage 5,952]

Does anyone here have put some use on a G3 denim pants? I have the G3 overalls, and I'm loving the texture they're developing, but I am not wearing them that often unfortunately.

[Ahlvahroe 159,330]

I wanted a new pair but I was looking for something quirkier than usual. I’m not a good photographer but I’m really liking these. 1890s style repro with some SDA twists. 

[swiss-jeansfreak 296,441]

Öiibing great in you Ahlvahroe

I picked up an SD-D01J "The Origin" jacket, it's really nice.  My new go-to type 1.

[indigoeagle 1,121]

Looks great.

How is the length?

And do they sport a T back on all sizes or just the bigger ones?

Not sure about the length I will measure it during the week. T back was a pleasant surprise to me I didn't see it in any images before.

[Maynard Friedman 570,908]

I like it. Is it dyed with natural or synthetic indigo?

The jacket is great, recently got its second wash, I will post an update soon.

I’m not sure about the dyeing

[JDelage 5,952]

The 14oz work shirt. It takes forever to break…

 

[Geeman 3,791]

That looks great @JDelage

I've had my eye on that shirt for long time

 

[JDelage 5,952]

It's the perfect denim work shirt as far as I'm concerned.

[Geeman 3,791]

I see  SDA jeans have all gone up in price in JP stores.

On the subject of SDA fit offerings in the evo thread, I was talking to Rudy @ SOAS a few weeks back and he was saying that they don't actively restock SDA jeans anymore due to their change to releasing everything in the 108 cut. He feels there are to many options in that cut and the likes of oni do it better.

(Personally 108 works OK for me as short inseam reduces the pronounced taper) 

Perhaps with wider fits becoming more popular again we will see SDA releasing more of the original fits.

Cuts aside,  I'm very much considering the SDA leepro they have just released. 

 

Also when in Birmingham Moor Street Station the other day, was the first time I saw someone else wearing a pair of SDA in the wild!
