Evisu fit?

[Seething Tortoise]

I just got a pair of 32" Oki-Ni Evisu collab jeans (Indigo Carpenter) and they seem a little baggy around my arse. I briefly had a pair of EU ED jeans before I returned them so I forget if the baggy ass fit was normal.

I haven't really measured my waist recently, and some companies seem to size differently to others so they could be a little too big for me (they just hang comfortably) so maybe I bought a size too big?

I dunno, I'll measure myself sometime soon.

So basically. If you have Evisu's, do they have a baggy fit or not?

Edit: My waist measures at 31.5"

Depends on which ones. The '2001' line is similar to 1947 or 1955 501's, so rather baggy. The '2000' line is similar to Lee Cowboy or maybe 1966 501's so quite a bit slimmer. Sounds like the 2000 line would suit you better.

You think that I'd be able to fit a 30" if I'm around 31.5"?

I was thinking that'd be a bit tighter on the ass. Normally I wouldn't care since I don't mind baggy clothes, but it's because it's just the ass that's baggy it's kinda wierd (I may get used to it though). I guess the fit for me at the moment is kinda like anti-fit levi's.

Cheers.

I bought a pair of EEE's recently, and they did fit very baggy, from the ass all the way through. they are a size 40, so it was desired, but I was somewhat shocked at the same time

The 0331 evisus are the only slim fitting ones that I know of. They were made in Hong Kong in about 2000-2001. They don't have a crotch rivet and only have 4 buttons on the fly.

This is off-topic, but I just want to say that it's good to see you back Serge.

Is this style still made? Or is there a currently-produced (Japanese) equivalent that has the same fit/cut?

I've been wanting a pair of Evisus but I want a slimmer fitting pair.

Any idea where they can be purchased?

[witts]

zoo village had some i think? i know theyve got some slim fit evisu. the evisu concession in london selfridges hadnt seem them before when i walked in ther before, i picked the up from a local store called ONU. theres some slim cuts on there http://www.bagitup.co.uk/BrowseStore.aspx?brand=14&category=42 never used that site before though just came up on a search on google. another thing the evisu 0331s i got smell real nice, im not sure if its the denim or the starch i put on em but they smell GOOD!

[minya]

Aren't those (the ones on zoovillage, etc.) from the Evisu EU line though? I'd like to avoid that. I'm mainly interested in the Japanese-made ones.

[witts]

not from the EU line, there not jap evisu ive not seen jap evisu in slim cut for a very long time. there european made evisu but not from the crappy eu edition line, check out the heritage line on the evisu website (www.evisu.com) ive checked the rakuten sites, cant find any on rakuten

I was looking for a pair of evisus myself and I was wondering if this would help at all. http://216.239.37.104/translate_c?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&langpair=ja%7Cen&u=http://www.rakuten.co.jp/kobori/153170/153651/&prev=/language_tools

From what I can tell the picture is a pair of 2000 on top of a pair of 2001 to show the comparison of size.

Hey Serge

Which jeans in your collection fits like the Evisu lot 0331. I like the Evisus, but want something with less Bling. I was thinking of Levi 501 66s. Am I in the right direction?Can you please help me.

Thanks

[takashi]

Try the '2000', either in No.1 or No.2 denim.

As for bling -- you can get the evisus without the painted gull wings. Not easy to find, but you can get them.

[Serge d Nimes]

I painted my gulls black. The closest I have ever had are maybe the older apc or the new old standard which is probably better because they are square in the hips, or Denime 66's. Evisu is much better quality than denime IMHO. Levis will have a bigger rise.
