Could someone guide me on Evisu jeans? How are they sized, do they shrink (didn't someone just say that?) and how baggy are they? I really need some new jeans, and they look quite good!

I have had several pairs over the years and the rule for me is that they shrink a full size so I am a 36 so I bought the 36, BEFORE I knew of the shrinkage!!! went down to a 34 with a wash! Always turn em inside out and cold wash them, without any detergents.
Complete pain the arse if you ask me!

I see... Never had any problems with jeans shrinking before. Why do these do it then?

Raw Denim, not pre shrunk or anything! Dunno either, only that my mate scored for a jacket & jeans once, and that was a nightmare!!!!

my advice: don't wash your jeans. especially raw denim.

Do they really shrink 3-5 cms in the waist?! That insane! I'll try ordering a pair of 34/34s and see how they are. I can return them if they are too huge (before washing of course).

raw denim is dangerous stuff to wash. i bought a pair of levis 501 shrink to fit and lost at least 2" off the length and 4" off the waist.
still pissed that i washed them at all as the raw denim finish was lost forever.

how dirty do you get them? you don't have to walk through mud and puddles, do you?
i've got two pairs of japanese selvedge jeans - neither ever washed, 1 pair almost a year old and one pair 6 months old. if i get any crud on them i give em a quick wipe off and that's it.

hello, after weeks of trying to find a website, let alone a store that sold these jeans, i stumbled across an auction website claiming to sell 8 different styles of jeans. the guy sells all different sizes.
I was extreamly weary and was pretty certain they would be rubbish or just a con. but i fell in love with the jeans and took a gamble... the gamble paid off and i received an amazing pair of jeans at an all right price. and come with all original packaging and genuine labels inside.
the guy told me he has a retailer in Japan and he buys them in bulk to sell to UK. im sure he wont mind if i give you his email... krisdixey @ hotmail . com
check it out, well worth it!
