i didn't really take measurement, but you can see the drastic changes. bF and I had a tad conversation regarding the new66 cutting and stuff, and what he said is true about the 'slightly bigger in waist', because I found it so. And lastly, I'm gonna get it hemmed soon :)

Will do, b_f-- denim is still hairy, and some nice wear peeking through. Working on grad school apps this week though... trying to incorporate the concept of wabi-sabi into my essay... haha. minus the reference to denim sub-culture, of course. i don't want the admissions committee thinking how weird i am for having a weird fascination with fades...

Honestly, I swear I love the 13oz fabric. It's very comfortable for Asia's weather. Not as hairy as my samurai tho, but I like the fact that the creases won't settle easily. I'm really taking my time to see the changes.

good fit grooveholmes...

'66 cuts are so nice, but it's a shame leg openings are so small for us bigfoot people.

keep wearing that '51 tillmann, wish I could find a deadstock pair in size 32, even a normal old XX would be cool

I will till the Samurai contest starts but then it will be less wear for those...

i wanted to ask you about your pair. did you wear it after the contest? and how does it look like now?

and why a 32? did you lost a lot of weight or did your style change? :)

haven't worn my pair since the contest because they're too big...

I shoulda gone with a size 33 back then, by now I think I need a size 32, I'm wearing a size 34 in Ooe's WWII cut, 32 in MF Californian and Momotaro 1005sp nowadays...

So I guess these days my true waist size is about 32-32,5"

I guess I also have grown up (older) and don't wear jeans oversized anymore.

as I know how Denimes (at least the Shins ones behave) I gave the top block a little soak to freshen up the denim and threads.

The whiskers nearly set back in at the old spots

I've worn them for almost 2 months (90% of the time) and maaaan...they are sloooow faders.

Here's a shot of the backpocket, but already some weeks ago.

bf, definitely not feeling the price tag of 105,000 yen, either, for orrizonti era, but if there's a niche with buyers, it's understandable... just working under the assumption that it's odd that a retail store would have something on their shelf for 4 years and not mark it down. but retail is different from country to country, so it very well could be set up like a "vintage" store.

Great find, but 4 years?? They should have marked those down!!

actually on that time (4 years ago) the price is around 300-315 US$

and now when I come back and saw them still in the store so I ask for it (first they not gonna sell this but I'm a good friends of them)

So I beg them for 365US$ and a cup of coffee :D
