Ooe-Yofukuten & Co.

@scooby Indigo Proof and Railcar Fine Goods both do mail in hemming

[scooby]

Thought about that but I’m in no rush

I’ll likely be waiting for S&S to re-open since they’re local  

[Broark]

Probably due for another wash next week, I think these might be my favorite jeans of all time.
The stitching on this pair has held up better than some previous pairs that I've worn so far.

[Suitedupmon]

Do you wash them every two weeks- give or take? They are definitely in their prime imo!

[Broark]

@Suitedupmon roughly, I haven't really been keeping close track. Just wearing every day and then washing when I feel like they need it!

[aho]

Missing out on those is truly one of my few denim regrets...

[MJF9]

Denim... the gift that just keeps givin'...

Really hard to capture true colors with a phone, but tracks and roping are 10/10 after the last wash  


 

and I did decide to send my 02s off to indigo proof for a hem after all  looking forward to getting them back and hopefully contributing more to this thread.

@Broark “Favourite Pair of All Time” is a weighty saying for someone with some of the all-time GOAT denim... Looking fantastic though. 

[Broark]

@lophophora no doubt it’s some high praise. They feel just perfect in nearly every single way, don’t really have anything I can complain about in regards to them. That’s why I’ve had a hard time wearing anything else lately!

[Radiohead89]

The ooe denim is super perfect. I’m at 10 weeks exactly on mine. Initial soak only. I keep trying to shift the cuff to different lengths to keep the threads from breaking as they still have the original hem. I’ll probably put a solid month or two in them before I switch back to something warmer for winter.

Gonna back @Broark up here. 

The toughest, most comfortable, best fitting jeans I've worn.

Feel great from day one and take a beating like nothing else. My current pair of 01s have seen some serious abuse. 

I'm blown away at how they've handled it. They look like I've worn them at a desk and I couldn't be happier about it 

[roomtemplacroix]

last update for awhile. i’m pulling these as my main pair for the foreseeable future since i just got some full counts and the tcb contest is coming up. worn 5-7 days a week since late april 2020. probably ten or so washes. 

[aho]

I'm multiple times on record stating Ooe is my favorite for all encompassing reasons (craft, comfort, fit, materials, technique, personality, etc.). Just backing up what's been said above lol

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Yeah, they make some nice jeans 

[Radiohead89]

Quick and dirty fit pic of the OAO1 I have been posting. 

[goodrain]

those could use a hem imo

[owlofminerva]

Saddle Pants.  I was alternating these with a pair of Stevenson Carmels (I'll post pics of those shortly) for about a year.  So accounting for the (very) occasional no-jeans days, I would say 5 months of effective wear.  I wash a bit less frequently than Broark and others on this thread (I think they've had maybe 3-4 washes altogether?), so these are a bit more contrasty than other OAs.  Love these pants.  Stitching in the crotch/butt is starting to rip, so I'll need to get a repair soon.

They were sagging a bit. I’ll probably just Rick these though.

Standard & Strange it sometimes directly from OA, but recently they haven’t been releasing ad much. So S&S.

Also Cone chore coat is headed my way soon. 

[SLAB]

those saddle pants look amazing!

[Dan_F]

Ooe OA01xxs. These were probably close to the year mark before I replaced them as my current daily pair. This is my favorite denim.

The new cone Ooe railroad jacket must have sold out almost immediately (well, only size 40 left 20 mins later). Who managed to cop for one?

Ecru is a little less at $425.
