    While the site calls -M NYLON STRETCH, there is little to no stretch in the actual fabric.

    That’s New England you’re confusing us with! Or possibly Scotland.

    WMJ getting some miles in the Lake District this week. I thought England was supposed to be cloudy and rainy?!

    Damn 35 inch once washed inseam. Short inseams usually help my impulse control. I like the look of these at a quick glance though. The pocket bag colors are particularly nice. That oxidized Slash Overall denim also caught my eye, but mercifully those jeans are likely too short and too much of a hassle to obtain

    Damn! That’s even more of a quandary My next work jacket is a war model 506 with no flap, the only disadvantage will be the open pocket constantly filling up with wood shavings.. it’s the same with cuffs / turn ups.. they always collect sawdust. When I lived in the countryside.. i’d walk through meadows at this time of year and my cuffs would be full of seeds.. if it rained and my jeans got wet, they would germinate then die from lack of water.. I always fancied watering my turn ups and growing a mini, flowering meadow in the bottom of my jeans

    Ha yeah I guess the tips will curl up and stick out more? Didn’t think of that. I was stuck on the philosophical choice of pairing a Lee adjacent jacket repro with Levi’s style jeans as a ‘matching’ setup 🙃 Glad someone is considering practicality!

    Yes. Channel locks, level, and tape measure on us at all times. They don’t stay in the vest very well so tend to get out in pockets. Never had them burn through the bottom like this before. May need to stuff a bandanna in the pocket to protect the hole. Haha

    Yep, you're right.. good spot! I don't mind the look of them.. but from a practical pov, pointy bits on workwear tend to catch and snag while you're working.. i'd be forever buttoning the pockets.. i have all on keeping my cuffs buttons fastened.

    The type ii looks like a Copper King/ Can’t Bust ‘Em repro https://vintage-mushroom.net/?pid=178886059 I actually like the pocket flaps…

    Dr_Heech replied to johnmc's topic in superdenim

    I would love see a DenimJunkie revival!

    ^ I’ve had to do this on my pair 3 times now. That said, I had to do that on my OA’s too once I was back bike commuting more. I stitched WMJ pair last about 6 weeks ago and have put quite a few miles on since without any issue, though the fabric will need darning at some point, so I’m swapping them out for the ride sometimes. Whiskers on my pair seem about normal for me, fwiw. But pretty much no combs. edit - actually have had to do this repair on basically every pair I’ve ever owned that had cotton thread, so for me, this isnt remarkable for wmj. Except Freewheelers. Are we sure Freewheelers isn’t poly cotton?! Ha.

    Can i just throw my hand on the table and say.. those Gardener 43s look great but that Typ2 looks incredibly uncomfortable with it's high collar and drop shoulders, the nipped waist is only going to push the jacket further up the body.. it'll feel like you're always having to pull it down to get the collar to sit on the neck, hence^^ worn with the top button open.. not to mention those square pocket flaps ..

    Ikr! .. it's like the second summer of love.. we're living through a golden age people!.. i like to think we're a contributing factor. Nobody mention cash grab..
  18. beautiful_FrEaK
    I was thinking the same. Seems to be a trend to revive old in-shop (?) brands. Where they all in-shop brands or independent? Probably a lot more available. Like Levin Scheme, RRR, and many others. @Double 0 Soul knows 1 or 2 more

    First Silverstone Ground-alls and now Gardener. I wonder if there are any other dormant Japanese repro companies out there about to be resurrected?
  20. beautiful_FrEaK
    @Dr_Heech some 1937s for you: https://gardeneroveralls.com/魅力的なヴィンテージとの出会い。/
  21. okimoto
    I noticed the same thing. Maybe they will ship with the tab… no arcuates though.
  22. beautiful_FrEaK
    Saw them on instagram earlier but couldn't find them released. Thanks for the link! In the fit pics they feature a red tab but not on the product images. Interesting.

    Spiral's measurements for the 1943 lists inseams at around 91-92 cm one wash, so closer to 36 possibly. I'm guessing the fella in the photo had them hemmed or else he could have been a ball player.
  24. okimoto
    Gardener's has re-released a 1943 model, all iron laurel buttons, no rust proofing, flannel pocket bags, 35 inch inseam in one wash state: https://store.spiraljeans.jp/en-us/products/gardener_1943xx-コピー and a type 2 adjacent jacket, squared pockets, single row stitched pleats, very tapered: https://store.spiraljeans.jp/en-us/products/gardener_579xx-コピー Both seem to use all lemon thread and same denim. They both look really slick and I'd hope to see them on the forum.

    Snagged these 22501XX from @srudy last month, and by chance started wearing them on 5/01 day I love this denim and lucked out on the fit - they fit me as good as anything else ever has The cut is real good in contrast to the "22501" cut I had some years back - and at a tagged 34 they measure about 31" after a shrink That's barely 1" larger post shrink than the tagged 28 waist "22501" (a different cut but 6 tagged sizes smaller...) Not exactly an apples to apples comparison, but a WW2 501 jean under the same umbrella having such a massive disparity in sizing is... interesting!

    ^ Thanks, no success
  28. Double 0 Soul
    You've got that right.. the denim was still nice tho. If the 98 venture was an overwhelming success, they might not have returned to repro in 03 The denim landscape could have been oh so different.
