    The Sneakers we wear with our jeans

    They fit the same as any pair of Nike sneax (forgiving) .. the AJ1's are a little narrower than the 2s 3s 4s 5s ect but find a pair of Nike that fit and it's all gravy..

    Makes me realise my Arizona have never been nourished... probably explains the leather splitting in places

    Shoes that look better with age...

    Joining in on the Birk love, this is a pair of Bostons that I've had since maybe 2016. Worn mostly to take the dog out or for quick errands. Don't really do much with them in regards to care, just lathered them up with some Obenauf's as they were looking a bit tattered. And a pair of Rancourt Ranger Mocs that I got back in 2020 when they were running a crowdfunding promo. Similarly to the Birks I don't ever do much with these, these are also freshly coated with Obenauf's. Probably would look nicer if I put shoe trees in 'em, but I can't be bothered...

    Thank you very much. Just out of curiosity do you know which factory used blank button backs at the time?

    Chiming in on the Birks chat... Meet my slippers... super comfy footwear Had these about 10 years, worn most days over that period, starting to fail but reckon there's a plenty of life in the old dogs yet I also have the Boston clogs (comfy but not the best lookers imo) and Zurich which I like a lot more

    Exactly that. Big E labels were still being put on garments until 1973, when the small e/batwing logo took over. I think that most generic type 3's with big E labels made between 1969 and 1974 have either 521, 52 or sometimes pock-marked/blank button backs as there were only 3 factories making that particular denim jacket at the time.

    Should have a few goodies to share soon, including the 504XX. Will post some photos soon. 601XX-C 1937 due for another wash soon. Been washing a little less frequently to develop some more contrast. Really like the grainy denim used on these, but they do get pretty loose after a couple weeks of wear. And I know most people probably think these are lame, but I get a lot of use out of them since it's hot as hell here. 601XX 1951 cutoffs, washed every couple of weeks and sent through the dryer.

    Anyone want to trade a ( pretty much brand new ) freewheelers 506xx ( size 40 ) for a beat up faded type 1 or 2 ? I'm open to pretty much any brand but it must be heavily faded , be short in the body and size 40

    Thank you, a 70505 with this label and no stamp on button is consistent with an original vintage big E? I know that the care tag was introduced at the beginning of the 70s when big E ended but maybe for a short period the two coexisted?

    I don't know mate , I'm pretty much the same size in every brand I wear so maybe pop into a footlocker and just try on a random pair of 1's to get your size right then go from there

    Thanks. Only had maybe 40 or 50 wears since the tour end and only one quick wash.

    Only used in original vintage type 3 jackets as far as l'm aware (especially with the first type care tag sewn in underneath). Lvc only repro'd the c.1967 type 3 (70505) and the earlier 1962 557xx.

    @Geeman I would just ask the shop to measure the specific pair for you. Use the charts from BEARS or Sapporo Base as a starting point

    Hi, do anyone knows if this label for a 70505 type III jacket was used also in some LVC repro or only in original vintage? Thanks

    Great pair, I wore them on my trip to Tokio that year, should be a soy sauce stain on there

    Does anyone know where the Closed Front Jumper is being sold?

    I've had these Bootleggers 601xx since 2016 (They were gifted to me by Duke at the end of the tour over on DB) I don't wear these that much as they are soo perfect as they are, l just want to occasionally wear them and enjoy them. When l do wear them, there is always someone who asks "are those vintage levis?" to which l normally reply "what do you think?" Great hardwear and denim, various different gauges of cotton thread and rainbow stitched back pocket arcs. The coin pocket rivets were removed.

    Where do I find the most reliable measurement charts for Resolute? And how much additional shrinkage should I expect? (I feel like sufu 10 years ago asking for sizing)
