    • One sample is hardly enough to base the whole era on. Regardless, the back pockets and hems are pretty sloppy. Plus baby jeans are probably easier to keep straight on since the seams aren't as long.  Here's some war era lees that it looks like they botched the waistband topstitching. The back side of the waistband shows the needle missed the inner edge of the waistband (pic 4). I'd say that isn't on target. Most other seams look pretty okay, but the backstitching in some places looks just as sloppy as the SC levis repros (check the pocket bag picture where the coin pocket stitches are apparent) .  https://denimarchieves.com/e/vintage_and_old_denim_bottoms/lee_101b_wwii_en.html Lees of that era would have been union made where I don't think Levis ever was union? I wonder if that had an effect too? If you're union you wouldn't feel the same pressure to churn out pairs of jeans no matter the quality that non-union workers would, so quality may have improved from that? Purely speculation here. 
    • Hi Guys Anyone having info which online shop is having Warehouse 1001xx 13.5oz banner denim pair in stock? 
    • That's the direction I went, Shredwin & I'm not disappointed although I will say I liked the fit of the TCB contest jeans better, and also the old LVC model. 
    • Those look pretty tight compared to the highly asymmetrical SC jacket. I see some overlapping stitching where they've run out of thread & started over, but all the lines look on target.
