BS United Oni Denim Pics

Shameless plug for a spare brand new pair of 517s that are sitting on my rail pining for a new owner who will show them some attention ;-)  Size 32. PM me for details or head to that well known auction site...

Oni's newest headlining denim - Aizumi ('indigo ink') - is launching today!

[Niro]

Only in the 622 cut for now though. 

[mikecch]

^ There's a jacket coming in the same denim, and I'm pretty sure other cuts will follow too.

 

Lol, all sold out in the first 6 hours.

Broke my Oni duck today and ordered a pair from BiG. Fingers crossed they fit.

About 19 weeks of progress on my 546zr Black Secret Denim Oni’s. These are entered in DWC2 so cant wait to see how these turn out in 2 years.

Also just got on Friday the new Aizumi’s to add into the rotation. You can see the color against the black 546’s...they are inky but not black. Will be a fun wear as well.

Fit pics on the Oni Aizumi’s, overall very close to the 546 fit just slightly smaller leg opening and wider leg/top block.

any words on denim itself?

Not to be cast with any stones but there is only subtle differences between their normal 16oz denim. Construction was no noticeable difference from any other Oni denim in the same price range. As of now, Weft is beige instead of white, indigo went for a black dye process after it was dope dyed. Now there was mostly likely a lot of work put into the process but that is lost in translation to the consumer. Which will all add into the fading experience. The denim visually does not look any slubbier or any more texture to it. Hardware was powder coated black and a few different colors in threading used. 

To answer it simply, are they better than Oni’s Secret Denim, Indigo or Black, no. Are they a good pair of Jose I’m to purchase if you would like to start a fade project for 2018 on a reasonable priced pair of overdyed denim, yes.  Now if the process they did for these jeans transfers to the Secret Denim, then we have something special.

Anyone have experience with the Oni 536 12.5oz denim? Any fades or pictures? Any brand recommendations for lightweight?

Aizumi fabric is very rough and hairy.

How are you all sizing the Aizumi? I usually wear a 31, but going from measurements on Denimio it looks like I should / could go with a 28... any thoughts / suggestions? Thanks!

Best ask Denimio staff for sizing advice since they gaurantee free exchange if they suggest a size and it doesn't fit you.

All Oni models are sized differently. I got the Aizumi 622 cut in a 29. Whereas l got the 575 cut size 31 and a 271 cut size 28.

Awesome - thanks for the input. I went with a 28, but, as is always the case, getting them on will be the true test.

(First post!) Just picked up my first pair if ONI (Aizumi 622) ... So inky & slubby...

Interesting the comments on the ONI's being less durable due to looser weaves etc... In my experience, most denim I've owned has only lasted 12-18 months with 3-4 wears a week. Japan Blue, Warehouse, Sugar Cane, Tellason etc.. all of them have had similar patterns of deterioration, crotch blowout then mobile pocket tear etc.. 

Looking forward to breaking in these ONI's

Kinda want a no fade, so guessing iron heart would be the one to go for

Looking at Oni 612-Old 14 Jeans as my first pair of Oni denim. Is it fair to expect they stretch back out to tag size after all the initial washing and shrinkage?It seems they vanity size as tag size 35 is listed as 38.6" on denimio. If this is correct and they stretch back out, it would be perfect. Else, I could size up to 36.

Oni have a lot of stretch and are sized well under tag size. From experience the 14oz denim is not that durable, the 16oz is better and doesn't feel any heavier to wear.

I am confused if a tag size 34 is actually 32 or 36? 

[Geeman]

Sorry I meant over tag. I usually wear 31 or 32 and wear 30 comfortably in Oni. 

[i_denim]

Thanks @Geeman. My heart says to go for the slubby/neppy Oni pair but my head is saying to go with Warehouse 900 for the banner denim. I will post later tonight as to who won the game. Oni looks almost like PBJ, irregular/hairy and everything I seem to like. Denimio also threw in a free size exchange offer to make it more tempting.

[i_denim]

How is everybody coping with Oni having only low rise jeans? Their jeans seem pretty popular on this thread and I haven't read about anybody complaining about the rise being terribly low. However, when I look at the measurements on Denimio, most Oni pairs have a rise not more than 10 inches. 

[zwer]

I finally fit into my Aizumis, just in time for summer.

Yay to losing weight, boo to being a fat bastard to begin with.

Low rise is fine, but like anything else, if you don't feel comfortable wearing it, then don't. Otherwise you look like a trend following idiot.

Thanks man. I don't know what trend are they part of LOL. I am just very interested in their loose weave slubby denim. I guess I will never know how I feel about a low rise till I get one. Pulling the trigger on a pair of Oni's then.

Some very dirty Oni 546 20oz here! Worn almost a year, maybe 10-11 months just before their 6 wash i think.
