Evisu no2

I recently lost some weight, and I can fit back into all my old jeans! Pulled on No1 Special silver selvage 2001s this morning (tag 38, more like 35"). It really is lovely fabric. I'm not sure how muc

Crash, as requested. A rare fit pic, channelling the '90s. I think both the jacket and 2513s were bought in '97.

I've always loved Evisu denim...I dont know why, some piece's can be a bit gaudy and the 'wannabe rude boys' almost killed the brand (a bit like the chavs almost killed burberry until Christopher Bailey turned things around) but there's nothing better then a weathered pair of evisu genes.

Just thought I'd post this article about the re-launch of the brand for the evisu lovers that are still out there

And you should totally know that Evisu is so last year and Mister Freedom is what is in. Now head over to that thread and join us on the beasting.

Not sure what I was thinking exactly, was really tired at the time I read that and somehow my thoughts went "Evisu being painted...Japan version available somehow, maybe?"

I now realize that this is thoroughly unlikely.

Sadly very unlikely.

I'd imagine it'll be the same as before, i.e. Lot 0001and Lot 0005, although they may showcase some of the new stuff...

I'll pop down and have a look anyway as the venue's only ten mins walk from my place...

just got my pair of lot2000 no2 from japan (handpainted white and pink gulls, yay!) and I have an unspeakably newbie question. Slap me now.

Do I need to soak the no2 denim? I've seen some places that say "sanforized" and others that say only some of the actual threads are sanforized and that there will be a fair bit of shrinkage... Thanks!

I'd soak it, too.

The Japanese website says that there'll be some, minimal shrinkage and probably best to try and get it out of the way at the start to avoid any surprises further along the line.

Pics are an essential part of the process, of course... :)

I've just started wearing my No.2 jacket again, now that winter's drawing in, and am loving the subtleties of the fading...

Good stuff :)

You gonna be giving these regular attention?

Probably not in the short term. My current project are the samurai S5000AI-10SP which are unbelievably slow to fade. I want those to at least look like 6 months worth of wear before I retire them to occasional use.
