if gap online says its selvage, it will be selvage.

corporation that big is not going to 'pretend"

i know that gap did release some selvage 1969, but that was back when the guy who designed for Paper and now earnest sewn was head of their denim section.

still waitin on those pics johninger...

need my denim porn fix!!

hahah

nairb49

it seems to me like those are really similar to levi's blue...

maybe black is the japan only version of blue?

just a guess

nairb49

i'm not too sure about this, but if 1969 is Gap's premium line, which it was at one point, not sure if it still is, then it is definitley NOT selvage.

in fact, i actually went in today because someone mentioned that they were making waxed jeans, and checked out a few pairs.

none were selvage, but the waxed pair had some kind of folded over white material that made it look like selvage.

pretty deceptive, if you ask me, but i guess thats why gap rakes in the cash from uninformed consumers.

mackage is a quebec brand

make some really nice wool coats with leather accents. pretty sure they're sold in most Holt's, will set you back something like 800 if i remember correctly. pretty hot in montreal last year, i expect quite a few will turn up again this year.

have seen a bunch of knockoffs at random places, i'm pretty sure any wool coat you see with leather accents on it copped that idea from Mackage.

^^whoa, never realized that 55s were THAT different than 47s...

or are those quite big in the waist too, witts?

nairb49

just ordered a pair of Imperials, the black washed selvage deadstocks that Haptronic has...

hopefully they fit alright.

i wear a 30 in the RRDS, and they recommended that I get a 32 in the DUKE.

haptronic-are yours pretty true to waist size? and how much did they stretch out?

will post pics once i receive them, which should unfortunately be in the new year...

as stated, looking to buy a pair of sugarcanes from someone

if anyone has anything, i'd be interested...

nairb49

don't mean this in an insultatory way at all, i'm just amazed that with 700 posts you haven't seen those before, either here or other online stuff!

learn something new everyday!

nairb49

yo witts, how was it?

and where were they playing?

nairb49

good choice,

unless the am1s are a really special colourway, they're everywhere here in montreal, going for 120CAD ish

nairb49

forget mo851

maybe rudsak on sale?

nairb49

they look fine on, but if you feel like the waist is too big, i don't see why there'd be a problem in taking it in.

seems unecessary though, just wear a belt

nairb49

hey johninger,

you ever gonna let us see pics of your imperials?

they sound like they're gonna come out real nice-like and all...

nairb49

mo851 in montreal makes really nice ones, but whats your idea of insanely expensive?

nairb49

yellow with a big black skull on the front.

don't know if anyone has any for sale

looking for a pair of apc new standards in actual size 31, whatever the tag size may be.

figured i'd post here before ordering online.

let me know

nairb49

i doubly and triply support ^^

especially filippa k

have a pair of their dry denim, suuuuuuper nice, and really great understated details

nairb49

yes!

good guess

though, i guess they only really have a few...

but in any case, mine is white, and i don't know why but along the breast pocket mine has A.A.J. stitched in. obviously we know what that stands for, but the ones i've seen online etc. have nothing.

what colour is yours? the silk hood is such an amazing detail
