could we get a front/back shot of somebody wearing these??

Quality looks great but it's hard to see the cut from those photos!

[esef pure denim]

Eric (corter) is esef's photographer, He will be shooting these for fit pics and product shots with in the next couple of days. I fit is the same as the oris, i'll post a picture in just a sec. Definitely check out Corters wallet collection, they are all hand made.

[james nicolas]

i'm pretty sure it's the same cut as the oris

just go back to page one of this thread to see some fit pics

and is the sizing going to be the same on these as the oris?

and i don't think you said it in the post, but these are 21oz right?

The sizing will be the same as the oris. The sky is the same exact cut as the ori but in a 21 oz. Only 60 pairs will be made for this collection. As of now, this will be the only run for the skys.

[corter]

yep, i'm gonna head over tomorrow and shoot these for everyone, hopefull we can get some comparison shots of the denim thickness etc. i can't wait to see the samples, they look really nice.

I recommend you not to do any pre-order, meaning not to take anyones money until you have the jeans ready to ship. As you can tell from the outcome with the oris jeans, there has been alot of unsatisfied customer. The reputation of your business has decline.

[esef pure denim]

Indeed the wait was very long, but 30 out of 33 people have been completely happy with their product.

[IM SOLE CRAZY]

Yeah dude leave steve alone its hard to run a company by yourself....I just wish he would respond more sometimes when people get stressed the fk out :-\

[james nicolas]

honestly, it's hard not to, but you can't really make up your mind about a business after the first run, and as im sole crazy pointed out, especially when it's a one man company. there's always going to be things that come up that you weren't expecting that you need to deal with, in this case, he had to pay for most of the shipping himself and the sizing wound up off. i'm hoping he learned from the first run and will have better communication with people, a constant sizing chart, and faster shipping the second time around. but if he didn't, and the second run goes the same way as the first, then you can say that his reputation has declined. people that got a pair of the oris know it's a quality product and people that have talked to steve know he loves what he does. i just hope there are still people willing to pick up a pair of the skys despite everything that happened with his first run.

It would help if Steve answered his emails more frequently. There was some good correspondence a week back, and now nothing. I'm still waiting for my exchange pair of Oris, or at least an email to tell me they are on the way. As for the Sky's, regardless of whatever discounts he puts on them, I don't think there are many people who would trust the brand/company enough to put in a pre-order again. They look very interesting, but I'm going to hold off purchase until a) my 34 Oris come in, and b)the full run of Skys have come in and can be shipped right away.

btw, this isn't to try and say anything bad about the company and all, but if 30 out of 33 people are happy and 3 people aren't, that's still a 90.9% rating on ebay (assuming all 30 gave you a positive review after the long wait and lack of correspondence they had to go through). I wouldn't normally buy anything off ebay from someone with less than 95% positive feedback. Then again, it sucks how some people didn't pay shipping and still expected their jeans (and didn't post up pictures here, either). Can't please everyone, I guess.

This is bullshit. He had absolutely no reputation on which people could base a decision about whether he could be trusted. He didn't communicate with his customers, and he took well over a month to ship his jeans once they came in. He also basically lied to people in this thread about having already shipped out their jeans. The postmarks on packages were often way after he claimed to ship jeans. A bunch of people don't appear to have gotten the size they ordered (look at all the sizing confusion a page back).

It is clear that he's trying, and that he means well. It also appears that his jeans are being sold for a very good price, and fairly impressive price to quality ratio, but as a new business starting out, he needed to fucking be responsive, clear, honest, and direct with his customers. Look at what happened to Jimmyc. It is clear that ESEF dude hadn't gotten around to wrapping/spraying/receiving/whateverthefuckhewasdoing jimmy's jeans until well after he promised they were shipped out.

If he had the common sense to be clear with his customers, and the decency to communicate with them, he would have had a much better reception. Maybe these are teething troubles, maybe the next round will be silky smooth and the deal of a lifetime (god knows, 21 oz denim doesn't usually come cheap). But, his nonresponsiveness and misstatements definitely turn me off buying them. Which is a pity, because I'm sure he's struggling to get a business off the ground and wants to sell denim people are excited about.

What's the estimated date for the arrival of the SKYs? I didn't have any problems with ESEF customer service at all, I'm down for a pre-order.

[esef pure denim]

No release date yet-

60 will be made of the Sky. Because this is a small order, people will have the option to pre order. If your jeans do not arrive by the date posted, We will refund you half your jean cost. People will have the option to pre order, If you want to be safe and reserve yours you can. Just emailing us your name is good as well, but will not guarantee your spot in the 60.

[TyCooN]

so we can do our pre orders right now, Steven?

[JFleshman]

The Sky looks good! Reminds me of how the SEXIH01 fit.

[corter]

I just saw the 21 ozer's tonight, and they're super nice. Looser weave, so they get more airflow than even the 15oz ones. The denim is so soft, I was really surprised about that but it's going to feel so comfortable. I can't wait to get a pair, this fills out the heavy jean spot in my closet.

Word on the street is they're coming in a 36 this time around too.

[indigo_junkie]

My 34s finally arrived. Put me down as no. 31 out of 33 people who's now satisfied. I did a bit of altering to them as well. Chain stitch to 33in and sewed on a red tab (just for the heck of it).

I'll be down for the Skys too... when they arrive. "No release date yet- " doesn't exactly fill me with confidence, but once they're here, I'll definitely be up front ready to purchase.

[JFleshman]

The ori's are shipping much faster now.

I convinced a class mate of mine to drop the money on the jeans, and it arrived in about a week.
