So over at Sufu we want to do a bulk order and hopefully get a discount on these jeans. There are 3 styles as far as I know, DJ-501xx (501 style),ROUTE430 (slimmer fit), and 10年JEANS (distressed but have a cool leather thing around the hem).

http://denim-junkie.com/main.html

The DJ-501xx jeans run $206 before any type of shipping.

Let me know if there is any interest. I am currently communicating with the maker to figure something out. The hope is to drop the price below $200, somewhere in the $175 so that the price is under $200 after shipping fees.

I wonder if the 430's and the 10's are the same cut but are black vs. indigo. I wish I could get better shots of the 10's since it didn't look like all of them were distressed, ie

. The detailing looks pretty nice and the denim very hairy. Let us know what the prices are on the 430's/10's when he gets back to you.

Cross post. From what I've seen on the site, the 10's also come in non-wash, I believe. Same reason as Whodini, the leather thing around the is cool. Perhaps some pics of them being worn, the cut looks O.K., but I'm wondering what they look like being worn. http://supertalk.superfuture.com/sho...9&postcount=18

I'm looking into the measurements and these actually may be too tight on me (and that sucks because I wanted a 501 style w/ a lower rise...)

I'm still going to be part of this if it goes down, so no worries

you should check out the special levi's japan reissues of the 47, 66, 55, etc. They dropped the waist on all the cuts and are available in one wash. Limited over there, best bet is to get a physical pick up. They looked ******* amazing. Too bad i blew my wad in Ueno a few days before, otherwise i would have gotten a pair.

There are worn pics if you navigate the site with a translator. http://64.233.179.104/translate_c?hl...language_tools http://64.233.179.104/translate_c?hl...language_tools I'm still trying to figure things out as i may be interestd in the 430. To knucks since he seems to know the most about this thing. What would the price be for the 430 after the bulk discount and shipping? Also, what the hell does "* The below-mentioned size has reached size of all washing later" mean? So are these raw or 1 wash and will they shrink or not. Oh silly translators. People, for pics of them worn go to the links i put up there + the specifications icon on the left + Silhouette/two size fitting.

'Order from foreign country'
About 2 cases from the foreign country “is overseas dispatch possible in these 1 weeks?”With the mail of the gist which is said it did, is, it went. Because calls Internet the [do], from the foreign country order did not expect enters with as expected, of method was not devised completely.

It is both to be from the American ones, but when you try hearing, DJ-501XX being introduced somehow with a certain sight, looking at that, it seems that asks.

DJ-501XX crossing America which is native country of the jeans, if to American one DJ-501XX is made to wear it can do you think that honor it is thing very. However perhaps, steady thing if the individual (Japan) the anti- individual (the United States) with just it can dispatch to the world even little by little with manner of dispatching which is started, as for that when it is very big thing for me.

Payment method and rate and dispatch method etc etc you must exceed, several hurdle as for that [do], doing the challenge which becomes new, overseas dispatch, you think as like.

from his blog..

bad translation, but I think he said that getting two emails from Americans about his jeans is a huge honor and that letting people know about his jeans is a huge step for him? By the way, I was the person who emailed him "two americans". YESSSS. I want these jeans. Badly.
