I visited the Evisu shop in Ebisu when i was over there and that place was full of surprises, especially the denim. They sold a lot of strange stuff that surprised me golfing clothing/accessories, fishing lures, and fine suiting. I didn't really know too much about Evisu before but their denim was super nice I would've considered buying if i hadn't already bought a pair of Fullcounts.

Do you know if the denim that Evisu International uses for their No.1 denim is the same as the MIJ No.1?

Not sure if the fabric is the same, but mine specifically state "made in Japan," "Japan made," and "hand painted seagull."

^ those are gorgeous. Do you happen to have any thigh, knee, hem measurements?

thanks all! they're tagged 38x35. Here are the measurments:

waist 35"

thigh 13" (3" down from crotch, 90° from outseam)

knee 10.5" (14" down from crotch, 90° from outseam) 

hem 9" (hemmed at 29.5" inside leg, so the hem opening might be a bit narrower pre-hemming)

they've been worn plenty of times since their last wash, so I'd say these are fully stretched out

Soaked a no 2 2001 red selvedge cold soak with agtation amd hang dry

See measurement difference

What color is the selvedge? The twill direction is very pronounced like I saw it on some LHT denim. But those are RHT, right?

They're RHT and I would call the selvedge color copper. Maybe someone else would call it caramel (that person being my girlfriend haha).

Here's a photo in natural light. 

Does this bring any more information to light?

^^ wow. 2 inches of shrinkage on the waist with No. 2 denim with only a cold soak...I wonder what No.1 denim will do. Thanks for the data point!

Hey guys, 

Found this today. The denim seems to be non selvedge and raw, but wanted to know if these are real or just a well-made knock off. Thanks!

Whats the cut on thise hayaoki? Hows the shrinkage?

Posted

not sure about a named cut- there's no lot number etc. the fit is pretty wide and straight. They're tiger selvage, and from memory they didn't shrink, so I'm assuming they're similar to, if not actually, No2 denim from the same era (about 2005)
