Thought I'd share some pictures I took before the Memorial Day washing. Click the Picasa link in my sig for the full resolution.

Ooe 3201, maybe 9-10 months of wear and countless washes/soaks:

^^theyre coming along very well !

my ooe have a smell of old clothing article...sort of the smell you can feel inside of vintage shops..

Ive washed them twice with detergent to get rid of it but after afew wear they still smell like prewash...i dont don any hardwork in them just lounging around the house.. Anyone has tips to get rid of this smell?

drz, SLAB - thanks. I am really happy with how the jacket turned out. I went with this button. Also a close shot of the fabric.

LC Miey - I hope the long soak with soap helped.

Since we last spoke, I acquired a duck messenger from Ryo and Hiro. It was a nice day this morning so I took a few family shots with the bag and my 3201s.

Two washes on the jeans since my last post, I think. I've had the bag for a week or two. Lovely construction and beautiful details as usual. Click for big & you can see a few more pics of the bag at the gallery in my sig.

A blog that i've recently subscribed to has just put up an interview with Hiro & RYO of Ooe Yofukaten.

A pretty good read.

There's some other good stuff on the blog too. Well worth a root around.

where the pics at?

why soak a phone case btw?

[arcarsenal]

Yeah, I've left my phone case raw since I've been wearing it. If it soak it it might shrink up a bit and make it harder to squeeze my phone in.

I'm waiting for my s1203xx, first pair without a red tab for me.

[baldy]

[Snake]

2101XX

Fit pics soon....

[beautiful_FrEaK]

looking nice! can't wait for the fit pics

[aho]

Snake, beautiful pair....My dream pair from them (still on my "To buy" list but I keep buying WH heh) is a 4303XX with no cinch...Someday! Someday...

It's good to see them trying to branch out with that English blog. I've always kicked around the idea of begging them to become an apprentice of sorts, maybe I can get an in by offering to translate their blog for them...

[Snake]

[arcarsenal]

Can't rep you again Snake, but awesome pair and great fit on the 01. I should have sized mine like that!

What did you dig about the #21 denim?

[povatix]
