Today, say hi to Markus and his ONI 512:
Hi, my name is Markus. I am 31 years old, I live in Germany and work at the university (teaching courses, grading papers, writing a PhD… not precisely thrilling).
I started wearing raw denim pretty much 12 years ago. Like so many people, I started with nudie and after 5 pairs of dry denim, I bought my first selvedge jeans from Nudie. But at that stage everybody had Nudies and I grew bored of them and wanted something more special. I read about ONI’s fabrics online and was hooked, the strong taper of the 512 was perfect for me, but the prices of American or British retailers were too high for me… I can’t invest 400 Euro for a pair of jeans. Anyway, I got these from Denimio for significantly less than half of that and Peter helped me to pick the right size (which is tricky, because the 512 runs large). When they arrived, I was the happiest person ever.
These ONI 512 14oz were my first Japanese jeans and I wanted to do all the stuff you usually do. I read that Ruedi (known to most of you know as SwissJeansFreak) does not wash or soak his jeans and I wanted to everything by protocol, so I wore them out of the box. I practically lived in these from now on. I wore them every day to work, when I went hiking, biking, to the beach. I celebrated my birthday, christmas and new year’s eve in these, I even wore them at a wedding, being the only guy there not wearing a proper suit.
After one year of heavy wear, I experienced what so many people go through who do not wash their jeans at all: the crotch blow.
Got them fixed but my tailor was pissed because my jeans were kinda dirty (we might call it patina). So I decided it might be time to finally wash them: in the ocean! Yeah. That was not my smartest decision because I forgot to rinse them afterwards and within a week or two they smelled like a dying whale. So I gave them a proper wash in the washing machine – even bought Samurai thunder soap 🙂
After 18 months, they have been soaked once and washed 3 times all in all. I am immensely proud of how they’ve turned out… At some stage I even showcased them at a family reunion…
I am very thankful that Denimio kickstarted my obsession with ONI and Japanese raw denim in general. Right now I am wearing the ONI 512XX context edition and can’t want to see how these turn out 🙂

世界中から日本のデニムに対して熱い思いを持った人たちのコミュニティを作ることが出来ました。
仲間と一緒に日本デニムに対しての情熱を世界中に共有した、地域社会を作っています。
この先の数ヶ月、このコミュニティから、「ユーザーストーリー」を配信していきます。
Denimioで購入してくれたお気に入りのアイテムと、
そのデニムがどういう意味を持っているかをご紹介します。
マーカスと鬼デニム512
こんにちは、僕の名前はマーカスです。
ドイツの大学（教育コース、グレーディング論文、博士号）で仕事をしています。
私は12年前に生デニムを履き始めました。
多数の人達と同様にヌーディージーンズを5組履き込んでいましたが、
周りの人達は既にヌーディージーンズを持っていたし、
もっと特別なことをしたいと思っていました。
そんな時に鬼デニムの記事をネットで見つけ、夢中になって読んだんです。
その中でも鬼デニム512の強力なテーパードは私が理想とするモデルでした。
ただし、価格は4万5千円…。ジーンズの為にそれほどのお金は出せませんでした。
アメリカ、イギリスの小売業者の価格は、
商社や他小売店が仲介する為、私からすると高すぎたんです。
Denimioはその半分の価格で購入することが出来る為、
カスタマーサポートのピーターに手伝ってもらい、
実際にデニムを履かずに正しいサイズを選ぶ手助けをしてくれました。
鬼デニムが我が家に到着したときは、舞い上がって喜びました。
この鬼デニム512は、
人生で始めて日本デニムを買った嬉しさもあり、
ビーチ、サイクリング、ハイキングに行ったとき、
仕事に行くときも鬼デニムを毎日履き続けました。
さらには私の誕生日、クリスマス、大晦日も一緒に迎えたし、
結婚式にですら身に着けていきました。
おかげさまで、私だけスーツを着ないで式場に来た目立った男になっちゃったよ笑
ハードに履き始めてから1年後、
履き始めてから1年後、
ジーンズ洗ってない多くの人々体験したことを目の当たりにしました。それは股が裂けることです。
早速ジーンズを直そうと思ったんだけど、テーラーに持っていったら、ひどく汚れてたから怒られちゃって笑（緑青みたいな感じで）
どうしようか、と悩んだ末に海に洗いに行きました。
最悪の決断でしたね。洗い流し忘れてから１，２週間は死んだクジラのようなにおいがしたんだからね笑
仕方ないから洗濯機で洗いました。もちろん、サムライジーンズの雷石鹸でね！
1年6ヶ月後、ジーンズを一度浸し、合計3回洗浄しました。
デニムがコレほどまでに変化するとは！と私は感動しました！家族だったり近い人たちに見せちゃうくらいにね笑
僕はDenimioにとても感謝してるよ。
なんたって鬼デニムと日本の生デニムに夢中にさせてくれたんだからね。
今は、鬼デニム 512XX contest editionを履いていて、どうやって色落ちするか待ちきれないよっ！

Today, say hi to Markus and his ONI 512:
Hi, my name is Markus. I am 31 years old, I live in Germany and work at the university (teaching courses, grading papers, writing a PhD… not precisely thrilling).
I started wearing raw denim pretty much 12 years ago. Like so many people, I started with nudie and after 5 pairs of dry denim, I bought my first selvedge jeans from Nudie. But at that stage everybody had Nudies and I grew bored of them and wanted something more special. I read about ONI’s fabrics online and was hooked, the strong taper of the 512 was perfect for me, but the prices of American or British retailers were too high for me… I can’t invest 400 Euro for a pair of jeans. Anyway, I got these from Denimio for significantly less than half of that and Peter helped me to pick the right size (which is tricky, because the 512 runs large). When they arrived, I was the happiest person ever.
These ONI 512 14oz were my first Japanese jeans and I wanted to do all the stuff you usually do. I read that Ruedi (known to most of you know as SwissJeansFreak) does not wash or soak his jeans and I wanted to everything by protocol, so I wore them out of the box. I practically lived in these from now on. I wore them every day to work, when I went hiking, biking, to the beach. I celebrated my birthday, christmas and new year’s eve in these, I even wore them at a wedding, being the only guy there not wearing a proper suit.
After one year of heavy wear, I experienced what so many people go through who do not wash their jeans at all: the crotch blow.
Got them fixed but my tailor was pissed because my jeans were kinda dirty (we might call it patina). So I decided it might be time to finally wash them: in the ocean! Yeah. That was not my smartest decision because I forgot to rinse them afterwards and within a week or two they smelled like a dying whale. So I gave them a proper wash in the washing machine – even bought Samurai thunder soap 🙂
After 18 months, they have been soaked once and washed 3 times all in all. I am immensely proud of how they’ve turned out… At some stage I even showcased them at a family reunion…
I am very thankful that Denimio kickstarted my obsession with ONI and Japanese raw denim in general. Right now I am wearing the ONI 512XX context edition and can’t want to see how these turn out 🙂
