RE: B.O.T.&co
@FlavourFade In terms of custom jackets, there are not many from the top of my head. At least not of brands doing WW2 repros.
Maybe "Sakura Overalls" or "The Revised Blue" would do it. And Shingo-san from Denimbridge is also an option. -
RE: B.O.T.&co
@Broark has a pair of his jeans. His main market is Japan and he just recently opened the orders for overseas customers. This is a reason you won't find too many Western people with his jeans and jackets and the main info can be found on Instagram.
One thing that turns me off, is that he charges more for overseas customers.
His WW2 jeans would cost 36k Yen (without tax, which would be normal for overseas sales).
36k Yen is approx. 250 $ + shipping, yet his price for overseas customers is 330 $ + shipping. And if you are located in regions like the EU, sales tax and customs will also be on top.His work looks nice though and you could buy his stuff also through Neat Style Official which might end up cheaper.
But I would prefer Libra Pondus aka rebuilt.jp for this price.

@peter4-ptv
I already answered you on Reddit.
About the Lot#: this has nothing to do with a specific model. It is a code when the jeans where produced but I can't decipher it. -
RE: Freewheelers and Co.
601XX 1951 model in W34. I much prefer this fit to the 1947 model. The lower rise in these is better suited for my body.

RE: Fullcount denim
Waist will (always) stretch. Back rise usually as well. The rest will usually slim down a bit more over the course of future washes.

RE: OOE YOFUKUTEN & CO.
SOA03XXD paired with a rare Type 2 jacket, also made by Ooe Yofukuten.

RE: Sugar Cane
Back to some fancy stuff, Okinawa. Worn in 'summer-modus'

RE: OOE YOFUKUTEN & CO.
Back from the dead
Their latest WW2 cut, the SOA03XXD in W36

RE: Denime
One of the rarer Denime models, a repro (so a Leepro) of the 101-B. Given the crotch rivet, these are likely a 1948 model or so. Found them deadstock, they were likely to be made between 1998 and 2004.

RE: Freewheelers and Co.
Freewheelers 601XX 1947. Size 34. Bought raw and washed by myself. Still some shrinkage left. Cuffed high to save the white shoes

RE: Sugar Cane
Good to see this thread back in action.
Looking forward to the release of these new 1943 and 1946 models:

RE: Denime
Good question, I honestly don't know
But I think it was more targeted at brands that had also arcs (also AFAIK the red tab is not a registered trademark in Japan so it's ok to use it there).
Furthermore, there were only very few shops outside of Japan carrying Denime at that time (I can only think ofTake5 in Hong Kong) and now Son of a Stag is also somehow carrying the brand.I do remember, Denime produced overseas models in the late 90s or so and those had blue or black tabs. But never had arcs.

RE: Denime
Some more details of the Denime XX pair from above. Turns out they are from the Orizzonti era so at made in the 90s or early 2000s.

RE: Denime
And another pair of Denime XX-type. This one is a deadstock pair from the Shins-era so at least 13 years old. Again a Yahoo Auction find.
Paired with a Denime Type2 jacket (also from Shins and made also from XX denim)
