Evisu is still loved!

[dob]

Awesome, thanks for getting back to me guys  

 

off to search for those 2 posts/threads

 

I came across the (mizuhiki) knot design a few times on google images, but on closer inspection the fragments of stitching left on mine didn't match.

 

Looking forward to seeing a brand new pair!

[dob]

No luck finding those posts guys

 

- reputation points for me!

 

I did find these in this very thread though...almost the same

Ive seen these jeans described as a ww2 model before . It would make sense given the doughnut buttons and pocket bags ,I know they have coin pocket rivets but so did many ww2 era levis

do they have a frayed (unfinished) crotch seam on the inside ?

Probably produced within the transition from Evis to Evisu.

No.2 fabric

Ill have a look tonight, they don't have a green cast like the pictured knot jeans which is odd

The ones pictured were Evisu international though, different stuff.

appears to just be a standard crotch seam...this gets odder and odder

Had something in the post this morning for my growing collection.

Anyone have any info on what the tab reads?

 

Hi long time lurker of this thread. Your label reads エビスヤデ = EBISU YA DE. It's Kansai (Osaka) dialect. Basically, Ebisu "it is". Very cool, I haven't seen any before.

Samurvisu - thanks for the info on that! Sounds like your a big Evisu fan too ha

[cheapmuthafukr]

Evisu no1

Couldn't decide between metric and imperial?

^haha it was more exact than "11.417 inches" and "8.07 inches"

[CrashTestBrummie]

Did anyone off here pick up the unpainted Lot 2000s that were on eBay last week?

 

I toyed with the idea at the last minute but went for a pair of Left Field chinos and a Barbour/Norton & Sons collab wax jacket instead...

I was watching them Crash but didn't pick them up for two reasons, first not my size and second shipping almost out weighed what they were gonna go for at $56 vs starting bid of $99 I think! Edited February 2, 2014 by dant87

^Actual waist was a 33 according to the seller who clearly had no idea of what she was selling at all. I passed because I wasn't sure how many times they'd been soaked or washed. And 'cause I'd splurged a decent wedge on some non-denim kit...

[dant87]

33 really? Didn't see that in the description? Did you contact the seller? I think they may have stretched a little too far for me all the same even with that measurement tbh. Someone's got a bargain though!

Sorry in advance for what is probably a silly question but I scrolled back about 7-8 pgs and couldn't find an answer.

 

When ordering from Evisu.jp, the "Inseam (length)" pulldown gives only measurements from 82cm to 60cm... is this an estimate for the post shrink inseam or is this the raw measurement? I assume this is raw measurement but 82cm seems a bit short for a maximum pre-shrink option.

[bod]

Those are length options for hemming which they will only do after a wash / dryer.

[ColdStorage]

Ah... so if you are ordering "no wash" then you have to select "without increasing length"...? As in, they will not hem an unsoaked pair...?

I suppose that is the safest route anyway, although I prefer to just hem before a soak because once I get wearing underway its usually agony to part with em even for a few days...

Thanks!

[bod]

Yep

They're only jeans, mate. Like all natural fibres they will really benefit from being rested in between days of wear, just the same as a wool suit or leather boots.
