okay guys, I want to buy the oldest RMC jeans anyone has. please post photos and let me kick back and select the ones i want. the brand is now 7 year's old so there must be some beaten beauties out there.

Any particular size or are these for collection purposes only?

I can source a pair of 2005 Tony Magnetic pink wave RMCs. But they're size 32, heh. There were a lot of old school "vintage" rmcs in HK in the old 1001 store before they closed up. But I'm sure those are still available in seleven.

really just looking for pieces to collect. rough, ready and rare

I have a pair of RMCs from the very first line. The ones with the tsunami wave on the back. I have only worn them about 3 times and I still have the wooden box they originally came in.

If your genuinely interested in buying them let me know and we'll see what the deal is.

The Tsunami waves is indeed rare, I believe only 50 were made ( across all sizes) in lots 1001 and 1002 ( 100 total) and again this was repeated again the following year ( using a slightly different selvedge). I have this design too and its amongst the best ever made in my opinion. True Vintage RMC

When Did Red Monkey Start. I Mean How Old Can The Jeans Be?

Strictly speaking 2002 given the 6th anniversary pair were released last year but I expect you will be hard pushed to find any 2002 pairs outside Asia because back then the releases were mega limited and very different to the RMCs you see today.

Mine were 100% from the 1st lot to hit London.

As far as Im aware there was one shop in London that sold them and they had 4 pairs of the tsunami wave ones. So the 50 pairs made sounds like a good estimate.
