BS United Oni Denim Pics

[ssheat]

Yeah, its definitely a pair you can size down on for a slimmer fit because the looser weave and lack of tension in the weave allow for tons of stretch.

[scoki]

I'm 90% sure those aren't Shoai's. Those are more than likely the standard dyed Demon Armor Denim 19oz Oni's. I had a pair for a while. Very similar! But not dyed to the core (yarn) hence fade-able.

Very good work still!

this is true.

[Dudebro]

How comfortable do onis turn out to be after some wear? I hear they are terribly uncomfortable when you first get them, and for a long time.

Whats the consensus on this?

[chantheman]

they break in like any other denim. the slubbiness is cool

[wahwho11]

it's a bit harsh from the slubiness but it settles down. great denim

[wahwho11]

they big pics but don't give a fuck. 1 month old? took these pics a month ago. realized i didn't take any front pics oh well(pics were just for comparing later on)

[Quinnskimo]

nice updates with those pockets. my old blues don't have that. i like the change. what happened to rome and his 2 year old Oni Blues? WTF ROME

[Guest lecool]

any feedback on the blacks?

i've had blues for almost two years now, thinking about buying those new blacks at BiG

[chantheman]

do it and post some pics of your blues

[rome1]

I'm gonna get around to posting pics soon I've got those and a pair of 710's that went 8mos with 2 washes that I have to shoot. just been wearing not documenting. (laziness) I know...

[Flash]

post soon , i cant wait for more oni pic's

[Vanquish Gold]

Got em today.. its a shame I wasn't feeling the pockets.... Sz 30 in marketplace now.

[hysteric]

Oni Reds at over 6 months..ive lost track of how long exactly..

[blm14]

This brand isn't getting enough love. Texture is so sick.

Oni red, got 50% off from BiG like 2 years ago and been wearing on and off. Haven't even remotely kept track though:

agreed tech - reversed my initial position and decided to get my shoai tapered... denim is so sick but just wasn't feeling the cut enough to give them the proper wear they deserve.

Come on...no post for the 1001HM model?

^ Copped a pair on sale - should be here next week!

Oni is my fav. brand right now, other than ROY of course

[chambo2008]

found these online worth checking out

[LFC4ever]

Sorry for plug but I'm selling a brand new washed unworn pair of Oni Shoai from 2006 run. Slightly too small for me. Check signature if interested.

Also want to get those 1001HM's but GIG out of my saize at the moment. No Japan retailer seems to sell em in raw.....anyone help?

[Solix]

Blah. I'm still fiending for a pair of the Oni Blues! If anyone has a pair in a size 32/33 (the larger preferable) LMK!

[mikecch]

Got the 1001 Hand-Made today...

The single-stitch construction is very neat

The denim, as always for Oni, is f*cking awesome - so loose and slubby!

Didn't like how the patch looked though, the leather got a bit crinkled in their factory wash:

So I did some rescuing

Fit pics to come!!!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

great pictures!

looking forward to the fit pics. Maybe I should get some Onis too in the near future.

You bought from a Rakuten store?

PS: thanks for you e-mail!

[mikecch]

Cheers b_F! Yes, from Vari - there were having a sale with 10 times Rakuten points

You definitely should try one - the denim Oni uses is unlike any other!

By the way folks, they're no longer called BS United anymore.

P.S. You're welcome! Hopefully I'll have another update after next week.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I hope so too. And with a positive answer

I really might looking into these. Vari has a lot in stock, Frisbee is nearly sold out. Is this a limited run or a regular model?

And I thoght you wanted some Samurais again, like the new 8000 with 18oz LHT Texas Cotton

[mikecch]

Me too. I'll never need to find another source if he says yes.

Yep - the Sammy cinch-back or Whiskey Cat's in October

Haven't decided...but in terms of the denim I would definitely prefer the texture of the 18 oz Texas cotton.

I think these 1001HM have the same 14 oz denim as the regular Blue & Reds, just different stitching and details, but yes this single stitch/fell seam jean is a limited edition. Come to think of it, I think you'll like the regular editions better b_F.

On topic:

Misc. Oni fact~

The owner of Oni is the son of the founder of Canton, the oldest denim pants maker in Japan!

The 'BS' in BS united refers to Big Stone, or Oishi in Japanese, the family name of the Canton founder.

[HOLY]

Got the 1001 Hand-Made today...

Saw them in BiG and i didnt like the pocket stiching, kinda regret not taking them tho.

Yeah, you're quite right. The stithing on the yoke (It's also called a french seam, right?) and so looks weak n my eyes. I'm sure that isn't the fact but it looks so fragile.

And yeah, I like the standard more. So a normal Blue or Red should do it, if the denim is the same.

I was surprised that these HM aren't that expensive although they would use a lot more manual labor...

[apples]

Are the back packets really that big? They appear to be enormous! And that is the only thing that is putting me off getting a pair.

Got the 1001 Hand-Made today...

[mikecch]

Yep, proportionally they are slightly wider than the average back-pocket (which is good for my monster wallets!)

[wahwho11]

^^get them, stop nit picking and love the handmade product =)
