I got them brand new off eBay for £225 from another SuFu member, LFC4EVA. Best bet for Yuks if you live in the UK or Europe is to buy them from the States when reduced. Even when you get hit for customs it saves you a decent wedge.

thanks for the tip. I have a few friends stateside so will be having a chat! How do they size up?

Notoriously unreliably! A lot of people size down half a size on the mocs from what I can tell but I have one foot wider than the other so I either go TTS or size up half a size depending on what I'm looking at and what's been available. I often wear an insole in my left boot to compensate for the extra room on one side.

Best bet would be to ask about specific models in the boots thread on here - but for the Maine Guide Boots, you could down size a bit if your feet are normal width.

Triads have some good stuff in their sale at the moment amongst other sites - because of the price of them it's fairly easy to find older stock at reduced prices online.

Legend! thanks as always CTB.

No.1 Lot 2000 in natural light.

Fading in well, very comfy...

[Foxy2]

a rather interesting Awa pair from the past:

https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b173659852

wouldn't be surprised if the selvedge is purple...

[devilva]

No.1's at about 4 months, starting to show signs of wear. I know its been said quite a few times but the softness in these, especially compared to No.2's is incredible.

[i_denim]

What type of fit is it as the leg looks tapered?

[devilva]

These are 2000's

New old stock Lazy S jeans picked up last year. The snow is very unseasonal.

I’ve stumbled upon a pair of Evisu heritage jeans. Painted red tab but otherwise unadorned back pockets. The seller didn’t know much more. Does anyone know what fit they are and if they have potential? I read somewhere that they’re supposed to be a Levi’s homage but they don’t seem to be stf.

0001 fit I think, and yeah they were a kind of nod to Levi's. Check the inseam length though because they have been hemmed.

Thanks! Yeah i saw the inseam, its actually a perfect length for me. Just wish it was hemmed with a chainstitch.

You can always get it chain stitched at the same length. I've done that before.

Havent posted in here for quite some time, but i figured someone in here might be able to help

So Ive found these Evisu No 2 with the gold daicocks, I had the exact same jeans back in ‘10! But they Seem a bit supicious to me

https://imgur.com/gallery/9XEPZ

1. The leather tag seems “plastic” and the font seems too “boxy”?

2. The selvedge is “Rising sun” which AFAIK only was used on No 3 denim? The No 2’s have red selvedge?

3. He has No receipt or tags, he blames it on hus mom who had the jeans stores since 2011

He’s asking a price that would make one believe they are legit. And the pics I have Seen of fake “Rising Sun”-selvedge are far Worse than these. Actually seems like legit Rising Sun selvedge, just on the wrong No..

I have never dealt with fake raw denim before, so Can someone Tell me if this is just a weird EU version that I havent seen before? 

 

Thanks!

Just ordered a pair of No. 1 Specials from Denimio. Got a size 38....sized up 2 from what I normally wear. Super hyped and hopefully the sizing and fit will work out.

It'd be good to see the inner tags/buttons etc, but these look legit to me. When these were made, Evisu intl was just using No2 to mean all pre-shrunk denim, including this (D85/Rising Sun, woven in China) No3 was a later name for the same fabric, when No2 started being used for sanforized Japanese redline selvage. Hope this helps!

Those are evisu  heritage. Made in Macau probably.
