Ooe-Yofukuten & Co.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Oh I am very happy with size 36 I bought

 

And I have to correct myself. The denim is more similar to a mixture of my Evisu No.1, Red Cloud and Neutral jeans. The more I wear them, the less they remind me of LVC '47

[Max Power]

Where are the goddamn pics now?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Check your smartphone dumbass!

[Broark]

Echoing Max, I want to see some pictures!

Still really would love a pair of Ooe Yofukuten jeans, just need to pick a model and do it already.

Those look great b_F.

Just curious if those measurements post or pre soak?

If so I could go true to size...

Stop tempting me damnit!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

measurements were pre-soak. They shrink from tag size. So better size accordingly (which means, size up )

[Broark]

Yeah I was surprised and thought those looked big for post soak!

I'll still plan on sizing up 2 in. or so. 

[Bobbo]

Fuck yeah b_F!

[Flash]

Great fit mate , slim but still really comfortable looking and they look good both cuffed and uncuffed

[aho]

Damn good stuff Til!

 

I'm still waiting for a cinch back model!

[volvo240thebest]

Beautiful fit, beatiful freak!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Thanks everyone!

 

The more I wear them, the more I love the denim. Now it is really fuzzy And after only two soaks, the roping is already strong.

That denim has a lot of shrinking potential!

[Somar]

Nice fit mate!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Thanks again!

 

Regarding the OA-Denim: does anyone have more info about it? Origin of the cotton, produced in which mill, etc.

Don't wanna bother Ryo&Hiro (as they are busy enough) if anybody already has more infos about it

[aho]

^Unfortunately I know nothing of the mill and they never really said where any of their fabrics were from before, however I believe this was made to their specs at a different mill from where they previously sourced their fabrics? You'd have to ask them to be 100% though!

 

Til, any updates on your pair; have they stretched out at all? What with the current exchange rate I might just get an OA02XX for the long haul...

[Broark]

Thinking the same thing as aho here, with the current exchange rate the OA02XX seem really tempting.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

@aho yeah they stretched back pretty easily. But with the high rise and my recently increased belly they are not 100% comfortable. The denim seems pretty stubborn

[beautiful_FrEaK]

My OA02XX could use some more variation in thread color.

That's all, thanks!

[aho]

This is stupid of me for posting/blowing up the spot especially since this will be a small run and hard to get, but DAMN if this isn't the pinnacle of repro's, the Mt. Everest of jeans:

Yawara Miura of infamous YM Factory fame (he's one of, if not THE goto guy in Japan for vintage denim repair; we're talking people that wear cinch back Levis etc. who use his services) is collaborating on this beautiful pair of Ooe's although no purchase details are out yet...

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Finally a cinch-back pair for you, eh

More color variations is good in my eyes!

 

Is it me or is the initial "hype" about OOE's online shop slowed down? The first offerings were sold out pretty fast and now they have full stock on all 3 cuts. (or can't they sell out since they would produce them on deman if necessary?! )

You are probably on their spam-filter

 

Na, please no sanforized fabric! Although they offered those in the past..well. I am sure they will find plenty of options to use their old stock denim

But the webstore is still open for you...so no excuses anymore

 

What do you wanna know from them?

[Broark]

I feel like the hype has died down a little bit, I keep pushing back the purchase of a pair of OA02's for one reason or another.

I still would kill for a custom pair from them.
