x-post from samurai

Nothing much, but haven't seen anyones USA's up in here for a while... 14 months on and off (didnt wear em much while I was in the Army)

[Whodinihimself]

Levis JP A-Type 606 -- 1 soak, 1 wash -- I lost count of how many days worth of wear went into these. I don't wear them very often nowadays, but they're my main beater jeans for hard labour, yardwork and outdoorsy stuff...the patches aren't as noticeable when worn

[salaami]

goddamn, so many hot jawns(&mr.freedom shirt) the last few pages, i don't have enough rep to spread. khoiphan, those bitches ain't done yet, they ain't falling apart! they only get better(you to, klutz!). i was just about to ask if someone is still on the sam USA models, and i get blessed with pics. the evo thread has been the shit the last few weeks...

yo lendo, i dropped by the other day to drop off your LVCs since i was in the ole' hood with a sack of nuggets, but you weren't there. i should've called first. i'll have em back to you in a skinny....

since noone else will say it, this is fucking unbelievable. great fucking job. i can't rep you.

[salaami]

those blacks are sicko!

a noob was talking smack about cotton thread, so i asked someone who would know about it, here's my question:

''hey gordon, i just have one small question....what kind of thread is this that you've been sending me? this shit is incredible. i've been searching here in town for cotton thread, and none of the shop workers have ever seen anything like this. its not as shiny/lustrous, its tighter-spun, and thicker than anything i can find, so i can only assume its japanese(has to be). do you get it from one of the labels you deal with(FC/WH/oni) and if not can you tell me where i can procure a roll from? thanks. --salaam--

the response:

That thread is from Japan and was given to me by some of the brands (WH, Sam, etc.) and is not sold outside of Japan. Its made special for jeans manufacturing, down to the fine detail of leaving the core of the strands white to assist in color fading, same as how the indigo threads of the denim is dyed. They use only the finest cotton, spin the thread tight, and twist it in such a way as to create a beautiful braid not seen on your average cotton thread and with a smooth finish. I wouldn’t be able to get a roll of it for you but could supply you with small amounts as need be.

Regards,

Gordon

vivo cotton thread, bitches!

3 months wear

3 months later and i've given them their first wash. I'll tell you what, i am pleasantly surprised at how well these are holding their color. There are definite subtle differences in their appearance, and they are considerable less hairy. These are going to be very hard to fade, but it shall be a labor of love!

just a word on any "adjustments" made to the pictures: my camera's a bit iffy on representing the true color. any adjustments made are to try and get the true darkness of the jeans.

Take 5 x Momotaro, 6 months - 1st wash:

[Lendo]

[salaami]

when i drop off those LVCs, i need pics like these! porn is over the top!

[M.O.A]

i just cant get down with momararo detailing/aesthetic

[greasypeanut]

i personally love those take5 x momo jeans and would instantly buy a pair if they were available new in my size

[panthermodern]

Snapped some photos today. TFH BSP Size 30, 7.5 Months. 4 Soaks. 1 Wash @ 6.5mos.

[78]

since noone else will say it, this is fucking unbelievable. great fucking job. i can't rep you.

Really? I find them overwashed without enough definition...

[Planet Mental]

I dunno what pair he's referring to, but jeans can still look good without all the honey combs or whiskers and the like. Sure those are cool to look at, but it's not a necessity for "good wear" on jeans.

[kromophobic]

JR Cali 4-5 months of wear, multiple washes couple repairs, for some reason i can't post the front pic...

WH 700 couple weeks, more pics in the WH thread

Club Monaco Made in the USA selvedge, 2-3 months, several washes

[iGIT]

Here are my dry bones.

[klutz]

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to iGIT again.
