1 you should have posted this in the small questions thread.

2 I don't see anything glaringly wrong with them so if they are fake they are pretty good. They're probably real.

3 why are you buying them. If you're goin to do evisu raw denim, go with the heritage stuff thats all made in japan.

In reply to point 3: You don't pick up heritage Evisus for just over 100 bucks.

Welcome to the future, Sergio.

I was in Bangkok last week and I sw so much fake Evisu ... that didn't surprise me so much, but I was amazed that while some of it was ridiculous, some of it was almost faultless. Stitching, details, labels and hardware was all there.

i know for a fact that evisu does scour ebay, making them take off fakes.

I too have seen faultless fake evisu, sevens, etc. I would say one thing in favour of these jeans is where they are coming from. (not asia ) Also guessing by his history he does not sell tonnes of evisu jeans that is also a plus, although these things can be faked as well.

I think they look pretty good but I am also not very familiar with evisu. If someone familiar with evisu's line checked them I think they could give you a definitive answer.

ask for a close up of the selvage line. That's an easy way to spot fakes.
