Initial Impressions | Ooe Yofukuten

Style #2702, which refers to their #27 denim and their original #02 shape. Shape 02 was their slimmest, and modeled after mid-1960s Levi’s (they are changing Shape #02 to something very different in the near future). They are a very simple shape with limited construction details consistent with 1960s Levi’s (no hidden rivets, no selvedge in the coin pocket, etc.). I chose their #27 denim because it has a medium weight (approximately 14oz) and is a bit unique with brown weft yarns. I also asked them to give me random non-matching plaid fabrics for the pocket bags, and I’m really happy with what they chose. It was nice to have a bit of a surprise when I opened the box. Ooe’s jeans carry a true waist measurement, so I bought a size 34 and they fit perfectly.

    yo dude, I really want to say how much I like the plaid pockets on the inside… what a nice touch. It is all in the minor details.

    I’ve taken quite a liking to yours from the pool. I’ll be looking into this brand for a future purchase. Great pics!
