#75 Okayama Standard

"Excellent quality and style. Customer service is top notch. I recommend these jeans highly."

"This is my second Gustin pair after the 1968. It took me all of one minute of breaking in that first pair using Sally O'Malley kicks and stretches to decide I wanted another one, and the Okayama was a logical choice. It arrived just in time for my Christmas trip to Chicago, and all I could think of was all the honeycombing that 8+ hours of sitting in Economy Class would bring. I'm really happy with it -- the fabric is beautiful and the piece is just so well crafted overall. I could be happier, though -- just a couple of minor quality situations on the left leg. 1) About 1" of stitching on the outseam failed and was coming undone, which led me to notice that 2) from the knee down, the leg was about 3/16" tighter than the right. I let Customer Service know about issue #1 and was taken care of right away with a reimbursement for repair. Issue #2 is more of an observation than a problem. Still giving it 5 stars."

"Beautiful denim, but 1 extra inch in the Front Rise (Slim cut) would make them so much more comfortable when seated."

"The standard for a reason. Has all the beautiful imperfections that give character. You can feel the purpose of each stitch (not just flat decorations like in most brands), which provides an excellent body sense (ie. What my body shape could be). Break in took a week of wear after initial wash, about half inch expansion at waist (I'm overweight). Fading is juust starting after a couple months office wear, but i can already feel the whiskers are going to be beautiful. If only every pair of Gustin jeans could match this level."
