Totally forgot about that. I read it and was going to post the link but only did the one above.

THIS THREAD NEEDS A PICK ME UP!!!

PICS!!!

Are all Evisu Heritage line jeans baggy/relaxed/loose?

O yeah I got some pre-distressed jeans from the site as a gift from my gf, though I'm sure no one here cares for pre-distressed denim lol.

[heflys]

They make slim and regular fits also.

Found a pair of Evisus. Bought from Italy, would like an authenticity check on them.

Things I noticed are the lack of yellow seams and that some buttons say Style Craft on one side and Evisu on the other.

Interesting pair never seen this b4

[CrashTestBrummie]

They could well be legitimate, as some of the models produced in Italy under license didn't use the 'usual' Evisu lot numbers, as far as I'm aware (I'm assuming that those are Italian-made, of course). I've got a pair of Italian Evisu from sometime in the 90s where the lot number is 10XZ, and whilst they're made of selvage denim they're not on the same level as Japanese or Heritage Evisu.

The ones I have show 'Evisu' on the buttons and top rivets, with 'Cobra-I-Original' on the rivet backs.

The gulls look closer to arctuates than the present-day designs too...I'll try and get some pics up when I get a chance...

[keelink]

They also have a black marking (from a stamp I guess) that reads LZ87T8 (first to letters are a little worn/blurred). The stamp is located on the inside of the jeans, abote the back left pocket.

[jyoni]

^ I wish I'd thought about washing out that lot number right away. The ink bled right through the denim on my current pair.

I'm thinking I might already need a crotch reinforcement. Seems to wear off a little more each day. It's at the point where fabric is really pilling off. Sorry for the bad pic.

Anyone know of a good diy tutorial, or a tailor to recommend?

although I wouldn't be too confident in my own repair skills and would rather leave it to professionals. I found an old pair of Heritage jeans in a thrift shop way back when, and have kept them specifically for any future repairs that I (or someone else) may need to do.

I'm going to have similar problems I think with my Lot 2000 (yeah, the ones I said I was going to wear next year...). I soaked them a week and a half ago to see what I could do with the waist as it was smaller than tagged size. I managed to stretch it out nicely and the fit is superb, but the crotch is tighter in relation to the waist and is fading/wearing at a very fast rate. Going to be some lovely fading in no time at all, but it's definitely going to be something I'll need to keep an eye on...

new evisu deluxe jeans up on evisu.com

click here

DELUXE FIT SINGLE NEEDLE NATURAL INDIGO IKEDA JEAN

100% cotton dark wash jeans is constructed using a unique Japanese selvage denim woven for Evisu Deluxe prefecture, Japan,by artisan denim weavers Kuroki. The result is a depth of colour and richness worn of patina which cannot be reproduced with standard industrial dying. The jeans are cut in the new D0024 block,which has a shorter , skinny leg tapering from a vintage round hip and seat.

[lmaozedong]

that denim looks interesting, but i'm not so sure about the cut.. i'd have to see it irl to decide..

[CrashTestBrummie]

^^ I handled those recently in London, I believe.

The denim feels like nothing else, but wasn't feeling the cut at all. It was like an exaggerated 0005 cut. I didn't even bother trying it on, as I can only just wear the normal 0005 denim.

I'd jump on them in a 2001 cut though, just for the denim...

pics aren't working at the moment

*thanks again for the info Crash ~

[Topik]

how does the fitment run on the #2000 No.1 that BiG is selling? i have a natural waist of ~31 and ordered a pair of 32s from BiG hoping that after shrink/stretch they should be about right. do these really shrink the whole 2.5 inches that BiG claims? the only other remotely close size available is a 29 and i'm thinking that would be way too small. any help here? i wear a 31 in eternal 811 (fairly loose) and 29 in warehouse 660 if that helps at all.

[CrashTestBrummie]

^You should be fine if you stretch them whilst damp. I managed to stretch mine to slightly bigger than the pre-soak measurement, although it wasn't the most comfortable afternoon I've ever had...

[ILHE1S]

What's up everybody!!! It's been awhile since I been on. Great to see that "Evisu Is Still Loved"! I'll post some pic's soon.

[chambo2008]

Greetings! Been lurking around as a guest for a while.

Any way here's some pics of my evisu with purple gulls.

Just basic even fading, I just wore them and washed them - didn't know anything about raw, selvedge etc. I just knew that they were quality jeans.

[coleslawyum]

^^^I had the same problem when I bought a couple of No. 2's from their Osaka store a few years ago. Fades look like dogshit. Worse, I even original hemmed one of them. Dark, dark days.

[Setone]

I thought I would share some pics of my Oki-Ni Evisu Katakana.

Don't really wear them that often. But I like how it fits on me.

Tag size 30 (My true waist 32 or thereabouts)

Cuffed:

[Casper]

^ Wanna sell 'em?

[Setone]

^ Wanna sell 'em?

No!

I prolly wear them like once every 2 weeks.

At the moment I'm alternating between S5010 21oz, and ALD Prescott.

You. Suck. Haha. Nice pair though, and goodluck with the 510's. I wore mine to the ground and still love them.

[chambo2008]
