Denime

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Founded 1988 in Kobe. Nevertheless it is one of the infamous "Osaka 5".
Denime had a few different owners over the past years (Orrizonti, Shins). Now it belongs to McCoys.

Denime is loved most for its XX denim, which has a very great fading potential. Just google for 'Denime XX' or check out Ruedi's pair of the XX/66XX contest.

I own a pair 66XX (Shins), a XX type (new owner) and XX type 1951 (Shins)

My 66XX (too tight for me)

XX-type (after one soak)

and the XX-type 1951

Some more random impressions

See you later

details and fit are great looking T.

Yes indeed. One of the nicest denims out there. What a sham that we can't see if the new ones can keep up with the old ones.

well Flo, I should get the XX back in rotation. But you know we both are busy with other stuff

plz don´t…would love to see you rock the 710 and the 0500 (if they´ll ever show up!) this year...nothing else!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

thanks for keeping me on track R 
0500 will show up, that's for sure. Question is when.

Well, I could wear the XX as sweat pants in the evening. They are wider and lighter. Might work

and if you want to wear´em…just wear´em as your PJ´s, like seul is doing with his 801

The first Japanese brand of  denim i came across was Denime around the latter part of the 90's. I 'd be damned if i can recall the model i had as i can remember is that they had a beautiful handle as well as rather strangely a wonderful smell about them, lol!

aren't they nice?

Some impressions of my Denime XX type

Normal colored rivet

Discolored

And I found the detail my 1951XX also has. Selvage pocket bags?

The fit of my new Denime 502.

Size 34 (SDO)

[rocket]

looking good

[beautiful_FrEaK]

thanks rocket!

they are totally different to what you guys normaly like. and also totally different to my usual taste.
paper patch, zip fly, light sanforized denim…all that stuff I normally not fancy off
but I love them for what they are. a try to reproduce a levi's 502 from the '60s or '70s

[rocket]

your right with that and I wouldn't wear them, but as always that doesn't mean it can look good, btw non cuff look better here imo
