But unfortunately all of them are straight / regular cut. It had the 'Made in Japan' word in the tag, but doesn't mean that all tag with 'Made in Japan' was selvedge. haven't seen MIJ levi's in the flesh before. need to dig up some info on it. But before this, they sell LVC which are the MIA 501 jeans. QUOTE(danny_sp15 @ Oct 12 2014, 07:20 PM) Just sharing my uniqlo's slim fit straight jeans (selvedge). » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Nothing to shout about, but I'm kinda proud of my first selvedge. Not sure if they're raw though. Made in Bangladesh, so I guess these are pretty much the low-ends of selvedge jeans. No mention of Kaihara, but likely the fabric is sourced from there. At day 4 of wear: Took this pic as reference, to compare after a while. Still very early, but can see some distinct creases. Probably cos I wear them pretty much everyday, morning till night. Whiskers not forming nicely cos I'm putting my phone and wallet in the front pockets. But I'm the kind of guy who prefers function over form, so I don't really mind. I gave it a brief cold soak to soften it before the first wear. Dye bleeds pretty badly into the soak water (considering it's really cold water cos it was raining that night). But still safe I guess, still looks sorta raw to me. And it shrank a bit, almost an inch in length. Careful if you're wearing white sneakers or white shoe laces, the color will transfer. They're really light and soft. Even my cheap Edwin (not raw, not selvedge) feels much heavier. Not complaining though, they're really comfy, despite being a slim fit. And really easy to slip into. Unlike my other uniqlo pants, the zippers are pretty rough. Doesn't go smoothly all the way to the top. Protip: zip your pants first, then button it. Planning to give it a quick warm soak after 2 weeks, just to shrink it a bit more, and then decide if wanna alter or not. I'm not really a hardcore jeans enthusiast, so I'm gonna wash it after about a month or so. Gonna post some pics after the proper wash if you guys are interested. nice purchase! please keep us updated on the evo/progress. QUOTE(Grimm @ Oct 12 2014, 09:20 PM) Dior Homme raw 19cm MIJ, around 2 years old, rotated with 2 other pairs » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « welcome back master! So what's the other two pairs in your rotation?

The only selling point is perhaps MIJ. They're available online too, now that Levi's has opened an online store for Malaysia. All right. didn't know Levi's had an online store for malaysia. I was interested in the 511 selvedge i saw at their online store, but only for the US.

They have a retail APC shop in Lonsdale St. Anyone heard of Flux denim before? It's a local brand, how's the quality and fitting? Thanks Dakota 501 at chapel st. Either that or apc at QV near melbourne central. But seriously, i dunno where else you can find any place else. General pants co. Doesnt have any nice raw or raw and selvedge denims. Just hate the fact imperials are really hard to find.

The 'bater Debater Senior Member 1,118 posts Joined: Jul 2008 From: Ur-anus	QUOTE(HateFakers @ Nov 22 2014, 12:05 PM) Hi, may I know whether the waist of raw denim typically shrinks or expand with wear/wash? I'm having a tough time making a decision because 28 fits just right and 29 is just a tiny bit looser but requires belt. To be safe, wear true to size. You can gamble by buying one size smaller for sanforized denims. It wont expand a lot, as long as you can button up all the way, then its safe. QUOTE(arthur5011 @ Nov 22 2014, 11:08 PM) think i should go for PBJ / momotaro.. not in to heavy oz denim.. too hot to wear it here.. hehe. Just to clarify, Pure Blue Japan (or PBJ) is not the same as Japan Blue (JB) under the Momotaro brand. So as you wrote "PBJ/momotaro", i hope you are referring to the right brand.

PBJ has a embroiled leaf at the edge of their right back pocket. Hehe. Btw yesterday I went to tryout the sizes. Somehow I felt momotaro fit me better. But I just wondering what is the Lot number referring to. The one I tried is 0702. But when I research online. It also have 0702SP, 0702BR. Do you know what it means? Arthur Not sure bro. Im sure google can explain better or a forumner can elighten you. Just get the one you like most.

Man those Thais are really kicking arses with selvedge denim stuffs Had some interesting convo with the proprietor of Nama Denim located at Terminal 21 Bkk a few months ago, he did mention Ceremony Fine Wear wanted to do a collab with them but the deal kinda fizzled out... Yup, pronto carnival in Bangkok. ahh, never knew CFW wanted to do a collab. too bad it didn't work out.

[attachmentid=4269727] Flathead? Awesome bro. People over here will most likely to use samurai soap to wash the jeans. For me, any detergent is good enough. Just dont mix it with other clothes.
