Oni Denim

@weftyarn those 602s are pretty bonkers, nice work. I will be happy if I can get anywhere near that with my indigo invitational pair.
-
Yeah those look great, nice green blue colour

Thanks, guys!! It was hard to let go of them, fade-wise they were my absolute favorites. But I just can’t handle these low rise cuts anymore. It’s to be blamed on the 888, which really made me love high rise.
@68degreesorless Im pretty sure you can accomplish such fades!! Just rock them heavy and don’t forget to put them in the washer here and there - works wonders. Mine had like 20 washes in the end
, the first one after ~50 wear days. -
Hmm. I am thinking of doing this exact same thing @weftyarn
I am fading a pair of PBJ Indigo x Black right now and while I love the fades this low rise slim taper stuff is not working for me anymore. I think I would much rather wear a more forgiving cut like the 888.
-
@GardenState The 888 really is an awesome cut, if you’re looking for a high rise with a slight taper that is not as extreme as the Oni 902 for example.

Think I’m going for the LHT. Slubs and new 21ib are both interesting too

I've had some great pairs of ONI over the years. Here's the 546ZR and 546 22oz natural indigo.
Either ONI change their fits (or the designation) often or it's become difficult to get them in the UK. The last pic is the secret denim sold as 'rinsed' vs the raw in the first pic. The raw wasn't available at the time and I was never able to get the same contrast in fades from the rinsed version and the denim had a totally different feel.
-
That bottom pair of Onis is sad in comparison to the top. I just did some searching and it seems all the secret denim is sold with a tempi wash first. Sort of sad.

My heavily worn pair of ONIs look similar to the bottom ones too. No matter how much I tried to beat them up they never developed any contrast, still super comfortable but my disappointment in them is what eventually pushed me towards IHs, so thank you ONI, I guess
-
Yeah it’s a shame as I’ve had some incredible pairs from ONI but the rinsing of later models is one the reasons I moved to IH.
I’d been wearing ONI since about 2015 and have had six or seven pairs, three of them secret denim but only the most recent pair was rinsed as new.
The rinsing process totally changes the characteristics of the fabric and how they break-in. I picked up a Type-II at the same time as that pair in the bottom pic and it’s not rinsed, even after a wash it feels and looks so much nicer than the rinsed pair ever have.
It’s hard to tell if it’s just an option and raw is still being produced as I’m not sure what stock is new and what is leftover.

@Mizmazzle is the the OG secret denim? I always wanted a type iii in that (but no I won't trade for my lefty haha)
My only beef with ONI is that I can't find a cut of jeans that really compliments my body type. I realistically don't see myself buying anything other than IH 666s since i discovered how well they fit me.
-
Just wanted to share some of my ONI Secret Denim fades. I ended up indigo dyeing these so it removed some of the greencast but hopefully still a cool look.

Enjoying the XX

Can anyone recommend Oni cuts for people with large thighs? I have a pair of Oni 612 Old 14s that I had to have the waist taken in significantly to wear. I've really only been able to fit into Iron Heart 888s and some Left Field Atlas cuts. I love Oni's texture and fades but almost all the pairs I've tried on are not forgiving for us big thigh folks.
-
@Nashville60 679ZR 'Mid Rise Relaxed Spike's might suit you.
Very roomy up top with a sharp taper. Can't compared to 888 though, as I've never tried them.
