Ooe-Yofukuten & Co.

It's a cruel universe!

Just last night I promised myself that I will work my PBJ and TCB pairs and not add another pair to the rotation. However, this is everything I have been looking for. Single pocket, suspender buttons, no belt loops, high rise, tapered leg. God!!!!

I would hardly call these tapered (I know it says it on the product description) as the it looks like most pairs lose only half an inch from knee to hem.
But if you're expecting them to be tapered like a pair of PBJ and tight around the calves and ankle you're going to be surprised.

The new Hercules overalls and a bit of sunshine encouraged me to pull out these Ooe x Bandanna Almanac. Bought last August and intending to give them some wear this summer. They are similarly sized to the new ones - very high rise, plenty of room in the leg and wide(ish) leg opening (to Broark's point). Dungaree denim so should be interesting to see how they develop over the coming years.

They look fantastic Foxy. How's the fit and feel?

haven't put them on, yet - hopefully, they don't shrink too much and stretch a lot. otherwise I have made another sizing mistake...

@Foxy2 Please post some fit pics. Those look lovely. Did they come from S&S or all the way from Japan?

they came directly from Japan (from the first, pre-washed lot) - it's faster that way.

did a quick dress check this morning after the soak/wash & stretching - they stretched out nicely, the rise is high and they are meant to sit around the waist or, probably, higher. denim and colour also benefited from the wash/soak.

will do proper trial and take pics over the weekend...

@Bobbo they're on the back burner currently, but wore them to lounge around on a lazy Sunday.
If you look closely you can see the threads along the back middle seam are disintegrating, so they need some repair work before I put more wear into them.

foxy: they look smashing

like very much the check cloth you have it paired with in post-soak pix...

Thanks everybody!

that would be from one of the more recent WH button-down shirts.
