To be honest, I think a lot of people have given the "as much as it pains me..." speech and it kinda waters down the sentiment. But these pants are easily the best item of clothing I own. My personal problem with them is unfortunately three-fold:

- They're slightly big on me in the waist.

- I don't really have the proper wardrobe to support them (esp. boots that work with them).

- I don't have many opportunities to wear them.

If I were older and had a more developed wardrobe, I'd probably have no problem keeping these around as an icon of avant-garde fashion and a testament to the genius of Takahashi. But I'm only a college kid who happened to have enough money at the right time to buy them on impulse. And the pragmatist in me is saying "you don't have a decent pair of shoes, a leather jacket, or many of the other basic staples to a wardrobe." So it is with great uncertainty that I'm putting these up as an interest check or for trade.

The details:

Mens Fall '05 ("Arts & Crafts") Collection

Handmade in Japan

100% cotton

size: 2

waist: 16"

rise: 10"

inseam: 32"

They're in excellent condition and look like new. I've barely worn them. And to be honest, after seeing a lot of images of other pants, these are by far my favorite combination/location of rips, thread colors, etc.

Obviously don't bother with lowballs, please. I'm not desperate to part with these and I know what they're worth. As far as trades go, I'm interested in a lot so offer whatever (reaaaally looking for CCP derbies or a leather jacket). I wear a 44/S or 41-ish in shoes. I could possibly offer some money towards a higher ticket item once I graduate in May.

Thanks, all. We'll see how it goes. Like I said, I won't let these go for nothing out of desperation.

haha thanks. Yea I've had offers come in later but refused them. I'm going to keep them around a bit longer and see how much wear they get once I move to NY at the end of this month.

Thanks for the support.
