Hey Dr,
Great to hear from you. I may me mistaken, but did LVC Japan use all cotton thread on their denim? The thread on my LVC Japan 1937's is fading nicely and breaking in some places, very much like cotton thread..

My sister has some mad skills at repairing the pocket bags of a pair of old San Antonio made LVC '47's. Back in the day, LVS had notorious weak pocket bags.
The old LVC Cone Mills '44's have worn well over the years. I like how the painted accurate has faded despite only a couple of hand washes. These have to be over ten years old.
