I didn’t pick it up in store myself I got one of my relatives in japan bought it and sent it to me.
If you get a chance, is the fabric composition the same? On my No 9s, theyre 81% cotton and 19% linen on the denim / stitching, but my No 7s are 100% cotton on the denim / stitching.

I haven’t check it yet but it’s probably the same, I believe the mud dye sashiko thread is linen instead of cotton like other CD versions that where the 19% linen comes from.

Anyone have or try the okagilly pants? Measurements are all over the place, some say TTS with a high rise and others say it fits small.

Is the size up advice for practically all denim (regardless of fit) for the brand?

My okagilly pants (bone denim) fit so big in the same size I used to do in Kapital pants (34) that I had to take it to the tailor to get it taken in. Plus to add into that the rise is insane. It's meant to be worn as a drop crotch I feel.

Heading to Osaka this summer and plan on stopping by the Kapital store there.

Any other recommendations of shops to stop by in Osaka (first time visiting)?

So, I recently got a pair of Rat Flare jeans and man do they have a long inseam. It's much longer than the inseam on any other Kap pants that I've had. I don't know how one is supposed to wear these without hemming them... 🤔

Choices are hem them, or let em stack/drag/pool. Both looks are probably fine considering the style.

Are you completely sure that those are the only options? 😉

Anyway, drag/pool is not an option imho if you wear your pants while walking outside at all.

Yep, only options!

Also everyone used to drag and pool there jeans in the 90s/early 00s so your call. I'd probably let em pool and hem em just enough that they don't get under my shoes

That's basically a grail for me. Wow. I really dig century denim, and got a denim jacket in it, but that's just a whole other level.
I actually made a YouTube vid on it in case you want a closer look at it. Super unique.
