up on the Bears site. They look like your standard 66 cut, but I think the patch is amusing.

real mccoy and denime are relatively unknown on the board, but a mainstay of collectors.

I thought them two were rather well known, just not bought or worn often.

[40ozprophet]

^^^ Second'd. especially Denime.

sounds like the same thing to me...they don't get much noise around here.

John - they look great. So cheap(ish) too! Mad fabric.

[fre-co]

I really like the look of those locomotive jeans. I take it you didn't buy them in the end?

Still waiting. I thought they were supposed to be slim from the measurements, but all the pics look fuller. I might just get them anyway.

[Pandemonium]

just rebumping on the 'groovers' patch.

i found this

[ZawBanjito]

Dude, those Locomotive jeans are made in Tajima. That's practically local. Ooh, they have a dealer in Osaka... that's even local-er. Another one for me list.

I love this freakin forum, there's like years of research here.

[fade to black2]

anyone familiar with Anachronorm? I've only seen washed jeans from them, but outside of 45 RPM they do probably the best washed jeans i've seen out of Japan, even better than Kohzo or LVC. Kinda pricey though...but nice if you want that fresh out of the coal mine look and don't feel like spending years breaking a pair in.

Rather badly designed website... "William H" may enjoy an unwashed model, ANB-033. Hard to tell.

EDIT: Scratch that. Definitely had some work done on it.

They don't look as slim as I initially thought they were, which is weird because the website says they're a '66. Perhaps they weren't soaked in these pics.

[fade to black2]

thanks for the link...yikes, that website gives me a headache. A for effort but a D for execution.

i think the models i saw were the one you mentioned, and actually the William H models overall...it seemed like LVC distressed stuff but with more details. I liked the last dirty wash jean on the Will H section. But now that i've seen more of it, it seems rather hit or miss. Some of the stuff is a bit overdesigned.

[aaronmetcalf]

did anynone try out the ninja jeans? they look like they fit like new cures, but with japanese denim. love the color as well. thinking about diving into my first over seas order.

[Chponglasia]

Yeah, that would have been better.

Agree with almost everything said here, just wondering what the think they're doing with that double yoke thing on the jeans? Can't imagine that looks good and can't seem to find pics of the stuff worn......

[wEstSidE]

hey guys, how can i buy those racist jeans????!!!

[knucks]

proxy? i want them too

[ZawBanjito]

Ah! Someone else admitted an interest in these jeans... I'd buy them but would I ever wear them? Have to keep them in the closet as a guilty conversation piece... anyway http://www.rakuten.co.jp/borubic/285272/ is the only store I can find that stocks them consistently.

[knucks]

dude it's just a patch. if you can't stand it that much or are worried than just take it off.

i emailed the store about shipping overseas..lets hope they do. i'm soo getting them if that's the case..

[edmond]

guuys look out!!! look at these..

[LaiShin]

[edmond]

[horriblyjollyjinx]

[gimmegimme]

They claim to be "20 times dyed 100% natural indigo" and uses Zimbabwe cotton. The company is called Tsurugiya. They're sold on Saddleman as well.

[wEstSidE]

[ktouran6923]
