Evisu is still loved!

[ColdStorage]

You are trying to order from evisu.jp? 

 

No overseas orders direct!

Yeah, I know that. I was going to use sutucorp. Thanks for looking out though!

 

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.

 

 You'll be relieved to hear that I have half a dozen pairs in rotation and they are all well rested, often seeing a week or more off between wears. 

 

It was just a bit of hyperbolae anyway, I don't actually agonize over sending my jeans off for alteration. All i meant was, it's exciting to get a new pair and I prefer them to be ready to go into action instead of having to soak em and turn em away for a hem job. Does that not seam reasonable?

 

I'm not the type to wear a double or triple cuff and since my actual inseam is 29" it means I usually can't wear an unaltered pair. 

[devilva]

I had my No.1's hemmed raw to 33" off memory and 32" for my No.2's. My leg is probably the same as you're (29) so I dont have too much stacking for the No.1's and the No.2's a little longer so I could cuff.

havent loggined into this forum in a few years but my latest project is some No.1 Lot 2000's that i bought off a DD+1 world tour member that got a free pair a few years ago.

 

before and after

 

 

 

 

[devilva]

Just got my No.2 2000's back from a repair. Gave the guy a few off cuts and he patched up the bigger holes for me. Back story is I was helping a friend out and I got battery acid on me and didnt notice so the next day I ended up getting lots of burn holes throughout my jeans :/

 

I snapped this photo when it happened but the holes just got bigger and bigger so I had to do something about it.

 

 

And after the repairs...

Devilva - Those are sweet mate

[devilva]

Thanks mate, I was pretty bummed when it happened but anyway... at least they are patched up and I can wear them again.

[dant87]

You made any near/deadstock evis/u purchases recently?

[devilva]

There was 1 I was tempted in a while back but I havent bought anything for ages now. In the back of my mind im thinking about a trip to Japan in the not so distant future. Have a look at some denim house's and things like that so I might wait until then unless something ridiculous comes up .

You just let me know if you need to raise some funds and off load some of your w32/33 collection into some very very caring hands won't you......haha

[bod]

Jeez check out the inseam lengths on the latest batch of 2000 No.1's - 83cm!!  Thats me sized out of a new pair

[beautiful_FrEaK]

damn what where they thinking?

[EdwardBear]

I only hope that it's an error on the sizing charts, as I'm heading to Tokyo at end of April and had some new 2000s and maybe some 2011s on my shopping list....

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Well...at least then you can confirm

[Warakia]

2011 is an interesting fit, strong taper but roomy thighs. 

 

Shameless plug but I'm selling 2 pairs of Evisu No.2 in the marketplace.

Doesn't look like it, its consistent across 2000 & 2001 No.2 as well (84cm) + the washed & hemming length options

[EdwardBear]

Damn, well at least I can try some on raw and gauge the shrinkage, but looks like I may need a plan b- probably Full Count to keep it in Osaka 5 posse.

 At least FC's sizing is consistent considering the amount of evisu's i've been through

These were announced a while back but now we can finally see the details:

Yup, Hidehiko Yamane x Evisu x Warehouse jeans...I would say these would be strictly for collectors purposes...a bit overdone and tacky to wear IMO...

[dant87]

Any idea if they are no.1? no.2? Or if they will shrink or not really I guess.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

It uses Warehouse's 1001 denim

[dant87]

Thanks b_f

Time to rotate this into the mix, trying to keep things interesting...

I gave it another really hot soak + cuff

 

 

 

Feeling pretty good about the fit so far, quite tight on the waist though

might need to re-cuff one of the side, abit uneven right now...

[bod]

Look good, classic fit!  Mine are just starting to break stitches here and there after a good 18 months of solid wear.

[bod]

BTW i'm trying to offload a pair of LOT 2005 No.2, soaked but not worn as they're too big. Tagged 32 waist but measured 36" raw and they're 34" after a a soak.  Red Tab + Black Handpainted Arcs. 35" leg.

[redragon]

Thanks you freezie!

[dant87]

Look great redragon. Love the rear pocket too.

[paulm]
