so, i'm having a pair of jeans made . . . .

[stresMaldo]

@stresMaldo: What kind of denim did you get?

And thanks alot man! I really LOVE these and I can´t wait for them to get more evo, but I also want them to fade slow since the dark indigo is extremely nice.

I honestly can say that these are very comfortable for being 21 oz. I did have BIG problems buttoning them at first and my thumb hurt for a few days, but when they set in they are just incredibly comfy. And with that in mind, these actually stod by them selves whan I first got them...

Suprisingly I haven't chosen yet.. I haven't quite placed my order just yet. Working through the final details, one being the denim type/weight.

What I'm really waiting on right now is the bingata samples.

Bingata hand bags...yup!

Amazing thread! I just found it and read through pretty much the entire thing again... amazing! +rep for Miz for documenting the process to well!

[stresMaldo]

^Talk about urayamashii....Wish I was buddy buddy with k-san Beautiful pair though, they fade very nicely!

[cander49]

Wow, just read through a good chunk of this thread; these jeans look amazing. How much is it at this point to get in on this and what would the wait be? How many pairs has he made for sufu people so far?

Damn! That´s a serious christmas present! Enjoy them to the fullest man!

These are some great jeans and the denim is sooo nice, very rigid at first but then gets softer as time progresses.

I looked at the pics, I saw these about a week back but had no idea they where for you.

[stresMaldo]

Ryan - those look AWESOME, homie!

The rivets are craazy! I know he's been using black ones like that too..

I reallllly think I'm leaning towards making mine with 21 oz. as well.

lets get it!

Don´t lean, DO!!! hehe...But serious man, go with the 21oz. They are some serious heavy, rigid yet soft denim that will make you happy!

[stresMaldo]

^ Okay, you've convinced me! : )

I'm allll in

That´s what I´m talking about! Awesome choice!

You having any specific details on your pair? Stitching or something like that? Selvedge beltloops maybe? Selvedge backpockets?

If you think halflined backpockets are something you might be interested in, go for it. i did and it´s really great to have some reinforcement there, since I got my wallet etc in the backpockets.

[stresMaldo]

Right now, I'm going with:

21 oz. denim

47-esque cut

bingata handbags

Waldes selvage zipper

I'm requesting lined back pockets...yup

gold stitching with red accents on the fly and that small seam on the outside of the front pockets

requested to have the small red tab with the R, placed on the left side of the coin/5th pocket

I'm also going to get 'Maldonado' somewhere either screenprinted or embroidered.

I also sketched up some arcuates

selvedge beltloops sounds really interesting.. I have those on my SEXFHXRRs and I love em..might have to inquire about that!

You should get those in on the heavyweight denim contest if you're planning on putting them in the rotation soon.

[kit99bar]

Are the 47, 66 and 19cm cuts every cut currently avail still ?

[stresMaldo]

^ Miz would have to confirm this but, for what its worth, I'm pretty sure every cut is still available.

Boy am I glad I stumbled upon this topic... I'm a US Marine stationed in Okinawa and it's great to hear about high quality custom work being done right here. I'll have to look into getting a pair soon, too bad I'm working on two others currently... one more can do I guess.

[itylerstewart]

I'd love to get stationed in japan. i'm stuck in tx...
