Orslow was one of the few japanese denim brands where i was actually able to find something big enough for me.
Really?? What size??
I've always been disappointed with sizes I see online
Really enjoyed my 105's for a while there, but the lower rise and shallow pockets have prevented me from reaching for them.
I spent a lot of time searching for selvedge type 1 and orslow was the only japanese brand i could find that made one in a 24.5 ptp
Its become one of my favorite wardrobe items, the denim is really great looking
good times
I used to be very orslow curious but then I just started buying the stuff they were reproing
type 1s are super cool though
and that denim overshirt thing that smiles has
love my orslow sumi dyed linen fatigues. they have great movement, straight silhouette, and amazing interesting color.
I love that jacket and have looked for the same thing. I need a 27" p2p right now, but I'm glad it worked for you! Killer piece!
also very nice jeans, once i stop my abusive relationship with levi's i'll probably convert
I think this is their max size unfortunately but still impressed they even went this big
Yea. I'm making a little headway in the gym for my wedding so, we shall see 😎
I only have one orslow piece but overall i think they are a really solid brand. I think they make some of the better repro stuff out there and seem to stay pretty true to the source material.
Took me until this month to finally really crack the code on the black stonewashed og107s I got this winter but now that I have I can’t stop wearing them
Love everything about Orslow except the way the clothes actually fit on my body
I would like to experiment with orslow, but their clothes are expensive and they do not make them in my size
but all their shit looks really cool
I love Orslow, especially their pants. Currently, I got the regular fit fatigues, the ripstop New Yorker pants, the used wash 105s, and the yellow corduroy French work pants. All of them get pretty frequent wear. The fit works well for me as a bigger dude. 36” waist and I’ve found that both 4 and 5 sizes can work pretty good. They have really good fabrics as well, everything I’ve handled from them feels great. I hope to acquire their denim popover, chore coat, or type 1 this year.
i gotta get new fatigues. i loved my 107s in another era too, the denim is super nice.
i would love the 101s/"dad' fit in a black, wonder if they make that, no i will not google it (I will later)
No I think there’s only rigid and one wash indigo options currently
I would love to try it in black as well
I want the 2 year wash in that cut, the seat/rise on the 105s just doesn’t work for me anymore
it looks like they only make the black 101s in the stone wash
I have 107's in a light wash I never wear anymore, used wash shirt I wear constantly in season. Hard worn 105's, dungarees, a coverall in moleskin, a coverall in denim, slim fatigues, and regular flannel lined fatigues. Love me some orslow. The denim fabric is nuts on the dungarees and coverall but I think the 105's and 107's may have aged out. If I wasn't a hard convert to the straight cut sugar canes I'd take a run at the dad fit / 101's. I do want those sumi dyed fatigues that's next on my cop list.
Orslow makes a lot of good pieces, particularly trousers and outerwear. The main point for me is that the build quality is just really high. Every time I put on one of their pieces, it just feels really solid and comfortable.
Also I find their seasonal collections are a really good mix of their staple items that everybody knows absolutely kill (jeans, denim jackets, fatigues), but also a limited yet very interesting selection of more unique items or variations on the staples. It's a strong mix.
For example my shirt from today's WAYWT is a cotton workshirt from the 2024 SS collection that is a really interesting shade of a more mellow pink. I really dig it
What the FUCK these are so good
Damn dude I already loved these but seeing them in motion really sells me on them
I have the dad fit 30 waist in black. They’re pretty soft. Canoe Club had them last year but I haven’t seen them anywhere else since.
