Got this dirty elephant 20oz Type 3 as a late birthday gift from my family. It's an XL but it seems that they run pretty big compared to IH and the measurements are not very accurate. When I first got it it fitted like this:
I warm soaked and cold washed it then (no spin) and it tightened up a bit and I like the fit better now. Water was really dark after the soak. Still not really a fitted T3 but that don't work for me anyway
Fabric is really stiff and nothing like 21oz IH denim. Will wear it around the house a bit and see how it breaks in!

looks good!!

@Salted-Racer Thanks! It's a cool piece. Not as perfect made as IH but an interesting side quest.
-
@FlavourFade yeah no the lefty trucker type thing but a cool change —rock it hard brother

elephant 13s & year of the monkey vans today

@Jord I almost pulled the trigger on those too, but couldn't get over how shitty the selvedge line looks. I knew every time I picked them up to wear them I would just go to my Samurais or PBJs instead. I did just get their Indigo Sugiaya pants this week, which are great.
The texture is cool on the MIJs though!

@blue2gnt Yeah they do weird stuff with their selvedge ID's, I feel ya, luckily these will be going to get hemmed soon as I don't normally cuff. They are super nice though for the price and 19oz, I only buy their elephants/MIJ stuff.
I actually posted on this thread awhile back that I always go back to my IH, after seeing your recent post about joining the IH army I think you'll feel the same soon enough, IH is just the best

@Jord 100%. I bought something like 12 or 13 pairs of jeans when i was in Japan in December and since I got home with them I've worn non-IH for a total of 4 days. Two days on some Oni's and two days (including today) on a pair of Samurai's

@Jord the texture is awesome on them. I ordered a pair too but mone are in the mail still.
