the infamous...!

[ordo]

I would feel sorry for the guy if he hadn't posted the same question on multiple threads.

http://denim-gallery.heavy.jp/eternal/811-b.html

anyone can translate what he's trying to say? google translator tells me he's stumped by the difference in denim as well as the (evident) difference in the redlines.

if this has been posted before i must apologise

[denimdestroyedmylife]

i remember coming across that before

apparently two different runs of 811s; he's noting the difference in tags, fabric, leather patches, selvage line, etc.; he rules out that one of them is a fake as it is such a small brand

[tweeds]

a real collectible jean :confused:

excellent. i wonder how much a first-run 811 would cost (or when it was even first launched)

So I just put my 811s through their first wash, after maybe 1 month-ish worth of wear. They shrank quite a bit, everywhere except the waist, strangely. In particular they lost about another inch/inch and a half in length. So a heads up to anyone considering hemming on the 811s, they'll still shrink some even tho they come one-wash.

With regards to the sizing issue, I also order my true measured size (31"), and whilst at first they were quite tight they have stretched out to about a 32". Another few points to observe; the thighs are quite slim and so if yours are big I would size up. Also If you have long legs I would not get these as mine can without any hemming at about a 32" leg. Something I find a bit unusual for Japanese jeans. I you have any queries with the sizing, I found that the BiG size chart was on the money except for the leg - there will however always be a few exceptions.

If anyone is reading this in the UK and looking to get some eternals I would recommend parachutes. I got these and a Fob Factory shirt which came to £160 for the lot. He even marked the package as a gift so it was tax free.

I welcome any comments on the fit etc.

Quality fit, I've been wanting to get a pair of 811's for a while but I keep getting stung for tax on JP imports. Could you let me know the details for parachutes?

As someone who's been wearing the flame denim all the time, I can say with complete certainty that it's not quite as flashy as you might think. Get them.

HTW just curious how does it look while it fades? and have you washed at all?

[headtowall]

I've had mine about a month, and there hasn't been much fading yet. I posted some pics in the Eternal 868 thread that show the little bit of fading from my wallet. From what's already there, I think they're going to end up a great color.

No washes yet, just a hot soak to shrink when I got them.

Hi Gem,

Cheers for the compliment. The email address for parachutes is [email protected] Hajime is always very quick to reply and will mark your items as low value gift = no tax! Good luck getting your eternals - they're amazing..!

[viv1984viv]

my 868s are my regular jeans now, the flame effect isnt quite as noticable now, I think after a wash they will settle down even more, they seem quite eager to fade, the back pockets are showing signs similar to HTW's - a beautiful hue is showing.

[Chponglasia]

Despite the zillions of sizing posts, I still can't seem to find the size I like the fit of on the 811s. I'm unloading a brand new size 32 (true size) for pretty cheap in favor of one size up. Arrrgghhhh. http://www.superfuture.com/supertalk/showthread.php?t=31455

About one month of wear.

Have some odd creases between the back pockets. You can see one in the pic. Anyone else who owns these have something similar?

[viv1984viv]

HTW - Mine have the exact same thing, I keep trying to smooth em out but they just wont go, I cant notice em when I strike the "does my bum look big" pose infront of the mirror however they are allways there when I take em off... They are fading too. They may go after the first wash.... Ive only soaked mine so far. You have much more fading than me by the way.

[justinbaily21]

Those are a work of art.

[lowrider]

Have you guys tried thicker wallets? Maybe it just needs to be stretched out a bit?

[lowrider]

Hey viv - post up some pics of your 868. How are they coming along?

[viv1984viv]

they dont really have much to show, no fading on the front and only the pockets edges have really faded. Im kinda molly coddeling them at the mo because I dont want to end up with kevlar saddle fades like on my apcs.

[edmond]

do these stretch out alot? and do they stretch out fast? im planning to get the 872's... pls help me and one more thing if im wearing size 33/34 on samurai's what size on these 872's should i get?

[headtowall]

I don't think they stretched a whole lot, but that could be because I got a normal size. Had I gotten a 30, I'm sure they'd have stretched as needed.

They are not a slim jean, so I'd say if you want them more fitted, get a 32. Otherwise, go for the 34. They won't be tight, but they won't be falling off of you either.

[ctazza]

I was bored before work so I thought I would take some photos of my jeans... There's not masses of fading yet but just enough to get me excited of things to come! I can't say enough how amazing these jeans are. Here's a few photos: 1 1/2 months with one soak at 1 month.

ditto for me. I cant wear the same jeans all the time to work so these certainly havent been getting a TON of wear but I've washed them once and man oh man they will acheive greatness.

[freshtakk]

Has anyone bought the 866's? I'm curious for any input or comments regarding the fit

[rome1]

HTW those look great man, highly influencing me towards another purchase.
