BS United Oni Denim Pics

[PG2G]

These Onis have never had back pocket stitching. They do have a tab though, which I guess BiG removed.

I got mine! Haven't tried them on yet. Boy, these are streaky...more than the AI--001s

glad you got the john, let me know what you plan on soaking, etc..interested in what you think seeing you have so many other "standards"....

thanks poly! you, me and crisis are the original oni brothers. hahaha! i'm actually planning on following how you did it. I will give a review once I'm done soaking them. I'm so stoked by this pair! Pics to follow.

poly, indigo is lighter than what i expected it. will it grow dark as the weave tightens post-soak?

[john11f]

You know what, haha, i feel the same way too. My girlfriend knows who you and john11f are, and she thinks it's crazy i talk about your jeans.

crisis, this is so funny but thanks for the compliment!

thanks for the comments ayn, john11f, and TiP. I'm gonna keep wearing them, so hopefully they keep getting nicer. I've had the jeans since march last year, wore them for a month, stopped. Then started wearing them again around September i think. I really forget the exact dates, or even months haha.

when did you wash your blues the first time? how often did you use them when you

John11f, are you going to switch your main pair to the ONI 19oz you just got? or keep on with the edo ai's?

will stick to my edo ai's for a bit. they're beginning to develop fades. but these purples will have time.

they get dark as shit after a soak. The streaks also even out and blend more with the denim. I'm basically trying my hardest NOT to wear these yet. I'm probably not going to hem them (yet) just to hold me back from wearing them. This will be one tough nut to crack...

[jooky]

I wish I had the cash to drop $500 on a pair of jeans, but those Onis look amazing. I think I'm going to pick up a pair of the regular Oni Blues because that fit looks exactly like what I want.

[Tarmac]

I wish they didn't even out so much. I like the irregular color pattern when dry.

[blm14]

Don't worry it will eventually return with wear I think.

[PG2G]

I think after wearing something these Oni or the PBJ AI-001, most other denim feels wimpy in comparison. Its the reason I can no longer touch my Kicking Mule (i'd assume the same would be true of stuff like apc, nudie, and dior). It sets a new standard for denim in your mind It did for me at least.

[shinobi2000]

streakiness subdued with only one soak? that's amazing, can we infer anything as to the fading times based on this?

[ktouran6923]

umm the top button just burst out of the rivet of my jeans when i was trying to stretch them....if gordon doesnt help me fix this or get me a new pair i will be seriously pissed and forever a selfedge customer....

[Dick Danger]

hhhmmm, trying to get him to beg for your business may not be the best way to get things done

superfuture sizing?

[480]

I just placed my order for some blues. I decided to stick with a 32 (i own a 32 in nudie rrds and lvc 47 501) even though I've heard they stretch a good amount after the initial hot soak. I'm pumped

ummm.....call him tomorrow dude...i'm sure he'll straighten everything out...did you size down? I sized down 1 and it was tough to button before the soak, after the soak, i just stretched the band by putting them on the floor and putting my feet in between the waistband and stretching...not fucking with the buttons...no problems with mine...yeah, call gordon...

I can see how you might confuse the unevenness for wimpiness, but for me the difference was the cut. The AI-001 at least when I tried it on was not nearly as nice of a cut.

The denim on these is SO stiff at first that I could see this happening. I urge everyone to lay down when buttoning them in the beginning. The first time I put mine on a seam tore but gordon chainstitched it and they stretched out so much in a couple of days that I can button them standing up now.

I think you may have misunderstood my point. I'm saying the denim in these is so crazy that many other pairs now pale in comparison.

My bad! Yeah I'm wearing mine now and they almost don't feel like denim. I really hope they soften up...

[ktouran6923]

thanks for all the responses guys, and as always the ass hole remark from dick danger is appreciated, yeah i contacted gordon and wasnt surprized that he can fix the rivet, so yeah I still love BIG with a passion

and yes this time I'll try pulling them on on the floor

[giantreptile]

the length on these guys shrank up more than any other pair i own (almost 4 inches), and that was without using the dryer!

to add, i don't know how you people are 'sizing down' on these. i bought my true tag size and they shrank accordingly. give you downsizers 5 years, when you develop guts, and see how much you can 'size down'!

[ktouran6923]

yeah these shrank like crazy, i dont care, these are one of those "I will lose weight" jeans

[blm14]

hahah I'm so glad I wore mine during the shrinking and drying process (had to slide around my apt on a towel to avoid getting blue dye all over the floor). They were so tight to begin with... The stiffness and the cut conspire to make for a very fitted jean.

[john11f]

I'll be soaking mine today. I'm glad that I sized accordingly. It seems like they shrink a lot. I just hope the inseam wouldn't be shorter than the 33.5" poly reported.

[ktouran6923]

to be honest i love the look sizing down two gave me, im very excited when I get these back as according to big measurments sizing down two is almost exactly like sda 103 cut

[poly800rock]

keep in mind i did a very hot soak, hottest out of the washing machine, stopped 2.5 hours into it, then drained and repeat...

[john11f]

Holy transformation! The streakiness disappeared post soak. Lost a lot of indigo during the wash. Soaking it right now still....

[john11f]

PG2G, the purples have a longer inseam than the AI-001s, fyi.

[wtap dat ass]

The streaks come back once they dry....or at least thats what happened to mine
