You are right, that sounds totally reasonable  

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Some more info on the XX, they should be released in the next few days.

[pomata]

are we placing a group order for these or everyone gets his own?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

No group order possible it seems. So better order yourself and be quick

[JohnM]

^ Should these sell out quickly, more will be coming -- i.e., standard stock, not limited, right?

 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Nobody really knows but I expect more production runs judging how quick they sell.

Celluloid1984 and Barnstormers are other possible shops and so should be Delbombers 

[julian-wolf]

Really interested in these, but hesitating based on the apparent slimness of thighs

Any speculations as to how they might fit, in practice? 

[Maynard Friedman]

@julian-wolf I looked at those thigh measurements on Bears and then looked at their thigh measurements of other jeans I’m more familiar with. In conclusion, I’m fairly certain that their thigh measurements in general are either (a) too small, or (b) correct when measuring the thigh lower down rather than at the crotch. I know some brands/retailers measure at 10cm below the crotch for example.

I’m not buying a pair by the way, just curious.

Bears measures 10 cm below the crotch. The other measurements look in line with typical WH jeans like the 1001 (mainly the rise).

[julian-wolf]

The overall shape looks great based on the photos—more so, qualitatively, than most Warehouse jeans—but even at 10 cm below the crotch seam those measurements seem dangerously slim (for me)

Also Ragtime and Rogues stock them.

Does anyone know, if Pants Shop Avenue will stock them? They had offered Denime before and still have some old stock.
 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I asked Naoki some months ago and he wasn't sure back then so I don't think PSA will carry them anytime soon.

More measurements @julian-wolf

[blooming]

^Thank you for that- ordered in a size 31 from Bears and it validates my choice. Don't currently have an XX-style* so these will be a fun addition.

 

*Unless you count Resolute 711, but those have a short rise so I don't feel redundant with this.

Since no group order was possible and everybody buys a pair on his/her own, is there still interest in a "group wear" (not a real contest)? If so we could gather that in a separate thread if it's worthwhile.

[ranonranonarat]

i did end up buying a pair but because i haven't purchased denim in what must have been the last 7 or 8 years, completely forgot about export models and the red tab policy. any idea if they are going to come with the red tab?

I think you should leave it in this thread for better reference. It’s not a competition specific thread and in reality is not likely to generate a huge amount of input, particularly after everyone gets their pair and has done the initial photos/discussion. After a time it will likely get lost and drift down the pages, so better the info is all in this dedicated brand thread. Just my $0.02

You are probably right @Maynard Friedman

@ranonranonarat I don't think you have to be bothered. I have never encountered a problem when buying from Japan.

[pomata]

my pair is on its way but I don't know if I'm goin to wear these or the bigE type first. I'm in in any case 

[Maynard Friedman]

Are you buying both new models then @pomata?

[pomata]

I'll check measurements and details before but most likely yes

[indigoeagle]

That was quick- Bears already sold out.

Ragtime and Three8 among others still have some.

[indigoeagle]

The BigE Lot 221 seem to come end of October.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

So plenty of time to decide and for the SO to calm down

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Something I never noticed but saw dscribed here on Eartmarket (have a look at the selvedge line):

The denim is right twill and only the white part of the selvedge is reverse twill (left twill). This is what I thought at the time that the hit of the ear would come out strongly.

 

Just checked my WW2 I'm wearing today: yep it was done that way. I don't even know how it's done though  

[cusswords]

Hinoya is selling them categorized as Denime by Warehouse. All sized appear to be in stock. 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

If someone wants to pick up some old Orizzonti ones, the 10th anniversary pair.
