Halloween party last night. Paris, Texas became one of me and my girlfriend's favorite movies when we watched it after someone posted stills of it in the iconic denim photos thread.

1933 jacket... bought one-wash... and not washed by me yet... the lighting isn't great... the denim is darker and richer than it appears in the photos... slowly slowly developing character

1922 jeans 1927 jacket

Freewheelers 30s tux, cinched and beltless / Buckweat

@Broark asked for a comparison of the 1922 denim so here are some shots. 1922 top, 1937 middle, wwii on the bottom.

A couple more recent purchases. Rick Owens high top Ramones in stone coated denim. Super comfortable, feel more like boots on foot. I like the side zip for convenience. New Balance x Kith 990v4. Been on a big NB kick the last couple of years. Honestly I didn't expect to win these when I entered the raffle.

I think Duke's mentioned before that the "standard" denim is dyed different shades of blue depending on year?

You know you're old when your repros of vintage have become vintage themselves 🥴 Right there with you @paulm, it's not a dig

Gave the 1922 freewheelers a wash and dryer today. Looking like straight up vintage jeans 🔥

I think the 506XX ‘22 is new denim - not the same as the 601XX ‘22

^ '22 (jacket) and '37 jeans are the same denim developed specifically in recent years; 47 (jeans) denim is the FW 'standard' denim which is different Note, from the posts following later, that the '22 jeans are in 'standard' denim.

Just realized that today marks 2 years since I got these and wow natural indigo is stubborn! Not exact 1873 SDA repro. You can see some minor fading in the crotch and it’s kinda cool how there’s some fading where the back pocket should be. Took em out of the dryer like 5 minutes ago, so they feel real clean. 5 or 6th wash I think.

FW '20s tux FTW!!!

You guessed right mate. Just looked this up - avenuewebstore states the '22 jeans denim is the 'standard' as used on the '47 jeans. I also rechecked elsewhere (for sanity's sake) and the '22 jacket uses the same as the '33 jacket and '37 jeans. So the '22 jeans and the '27 jacket are matchy matchy on denim. The '22 jacket an outlier. Would be interested if there was any FW logic to this (other than the timing point)

Wow So we got in those years: 1937 XXC- red cast denim 1942- WWII denim 1943- "standard" denim, OD HBT pocket bags 1944-45- WWII denim, OD HBT pocket bags 1945- WWII denim, red (not sure, if several colours) buffalo check flannel pocket bags 1947- "standard" denim I think, FW hasn't released a 1946 pair (yet)?? Edit: I've just seen, that there was also a 1946 pair. Released in March 2020. It has the same fabric as the 1947 one. But with all yellow stitching, iron buttons with clear finish vs. the later white painted ones and also with buffalo check flannel pocket bags but in a mustard colour.

I'm guessing the '22 jeans follow the same line as the '27 jacket, which feature the "standard" denim (i.e.: '43, '47, '51, '56, etc.). Think I just read your post from the wrong perspective @MJF9, all good! All that said, FW sure do love some nuance around their denim don't they? I'm back in the '42s, going to stick with them until the WoM contest. Hoping it cools down at some point so I can wear the jacket as well...

That's what my post said mate... I have the '27 jacket too - it's the 'standard' denim. I don't have the '22 jeans (as you say released years ago) and for clarity can't say what denim they are. My earlier post could have inferred it was the same as the jacket (good spot Austin, thanks). That said, it seems a bit odd to have a '22 jacket that is different denim to the '22 jeans but it may well be true or not! Calling @Duke Mantee

Yeah, super fast any time I've ordered from them. For sure looks better, ha. Dunno why I didn't try that first. I did have to cuff the sleeve as these are pretty long and my arms are pretty short. Having never worn a denim jacket, I'm surprised at how much give these pleats have on the chest. Much more freedom of movement than I anticipated, honestly.

This has become the Full Count Denim Thread Thread.

Good! I wear them a few times a week. But I'll probably be start wearing the high tops more often if it ever decides to cool off here.

Now y’all have me even more confused. I’ll just stick to thrashing all of the jeans equally. Hahaha

So, the 43 is standard denim. And the other WWII models- 1944-45 with the OD HBT pockets and the 1945 with the flannel pockets- are the slubbier denim (stronger vertical fading), same as the recent 1942?

I have the 22 jacket Shred and it's the same denim, as per FW, as the 37 jeans and 33 jacket that I have.

They really are fading very fast. I haven't worn them much. But they're probably my most faded pair of the <than two years' ones. Indigo neoprene suit?

Early 1960s paper tag 2002XX. First time ever wearing a denim jacket. I have mixed feelings so far but just not used to it I guess. This was purchased unwashed from Cultizm on Monday night. In my hands in the middle of nowhere California on Thursday, washed and now it’s dry Thoughts on fit? It feels good so far, but I have very wide hips so knew I’d likely never be able to do anymore than a couple of buttons up…

DD1003xx ‘46 after another wash. At this point repairs have been done to yoke, crotch, cuffs, pocket stitching. Pocket stitching needs yet another one. For the wear, this amount of repairs are a bit much. Got these in 2020 (?) - probably not more than 15 months total wear. Just a few times a month these days. Color is more accurate in the close ups. I do really like this pair, the denim is still quite stiff and crunchy given the amount of washes now (probably 10?) - the cut still works well for me too. Just wish they felt a bit more robust overall (I’m a broken record on that at this point I get it).

Warehouse vs Shins Type III Jacket. It took the Shins jacket about 17 years to fade that way. I'm sure the Warehouse will do it in less than year.

DSB 1947 model Just gave this thing it's second hand wash a couple of days ago The denim is so coarse and crispy I'm worried the armpits are going to blow out just from the fabric rubbing. Sweat without a doubt exacerbating this

Just got a dead-stock pair of 1954ZXX, the date on the tag is 4309, so assuming 2009 Just a couple of things are throwing me off, first is the 1996 date on the flasher The back of the waist button is blank No pocket bag print Everything else checks out on them and they smell old Thoughts anyone, or does anyone still have a pair from this period to compare with mine?

Finally trying a pair of these Sols sneakers, they're pretty nice! They actually made a pair in size 29 cm. this time so I had to try them out (all previous models only went up to 28 cm.) I think they're loosely inspired by Purcell's, there's 5 layers of rubber on the toe cap which is kind of impressive.

Since we're all doing updates, here is mine after a little over a year. Changes are in bold. FW 1942 to be added soon, thinking about selling all my WH jeans if anyone is interested. I just haven't been wearing them at all lately. If you happen to see a pair up for sale that sparks your interest hit me up, haven't properly listed any of them yet (besides the Boncoura and At Last).

Something completely out of left field. Swung by the new Self Edge Austin location last weekend for their opening day and picked up a pair of Rick Owens sneakers. If you would've asked me 5 years ago if I would wear Rick Owens I probably would've laughed at you.
