jealous of you guys. My gf couldn't GAF about what I wear as long as it isn't shorts. But I love shorts, so I wear them as often as possible when she isn't around. Is she anti shorts because of them being so casual? Or chicken legs? no chicken legs here. Shes just really conservative. |

My loomies are starting to fade, they're part of my primary rotation (Z18s, Loomies, and Heavy Carmel Chinos). When I get home I'll check the wear count, I think it's around 45. Just starting to see the creases behind the knees fade a bit, and the outline of my phone and wallet. I would say they fade slightly faster than the Z18s, but I wear them less because I wanted to put primary work into the Zimbs.

Quite a few people I know mark off their wears on the inner pocket bags of raws. I'm not saying it's normal, but it's not unheard of. |

So mine are 36 actually,and it turns out the z18s are 63, so more separation than I thought. I do mark the pocket bags on these two. If I can I'll try and take pictures if the Loomies this weekend to show the fade progress.

The Loomies are back. Wondering about whether I should cancel my backing of the Japan GreyXBlacks (backed before my 90-day no spend) and go with these instead? I have lots of indigo, and I don't have black jeans.
What say the consensus? Back these instead?

If not I would back the Loomies if I were you...or I would go to Rakuten and cop a pair of Onis if they have them in your size. |

Figured that's what you meant, but not locating any such thing on Rakuten. Alright, I did a search on Rakuten for a pair of ONI 517xxbe. This is the pair I have and they are a 16.5 oz, beige weft unsanforized (not sure if they are Loomstate or not) and they are awesome!! They are like the Gustin Loomstate fabric on steroids with a beige weft. It looks like some other fits came up in my search for whatever reason but the first three stores on the top row and the first store on the second row are the ones. global.rakuten.com/en/search/?tl=551177&k=Oni+517xxbeOni also makes a 14 oz pair without a beige weft that I will cop some day and if you'd like I can post a link to those. |

oh and the 517 fit is a great fit IMO. It's comparable to the Gustin slim fit if that's what you like. If not, ONI makes several different fits that I'm sure will suit your needs and their fabrics are just awesome. Construction is not at the Iron Heart level honestly, but it's definitely still good.

Denimio also has lots of the Oni in raw and once washed. I got mine from Rodeo Bros and was very impressed with them.
