Make it out of an old Star Wars blanket. That's what Ultra V. seems to have done.

Brad Pitt - Definitely feeling it, looks good mate.

There are only 1200, I know. I have 1 of them.

But, what's the point in limited edition when the same company produces something exactly the same around a year later excluding minor differences which aren't noticable (like a little Swedish flag, being made in Sweden, a book and having MADE IN SWEDEN stamped on the inside of a pocket).

Edit: Just looking at your post again. When I said the old svens, I mean the plain DS ones, not the Svenska style denim. If they're producing only Svenska style now, the old SSDS should be somewhat rarer soon.

Edited by Tabris on Mar 7, 2006 at 03:09 AM

So, in essence. The old Svens could potentially be rarer than the Svenska style denimed SS?

I'm sure Levi's suggest 2 inches on the waist and 3 on the inseam for all their STF stuff...or most of it at least.

Holy Shit. Panda-Z merch. Gimme.

The SSDS for this season are the same as the SSLE from last year albeit Made in Italy rather than Sweden and lacking in a little flag.

Crappy for the owners of the LE (such as myself), but good because the LE are really nice and it'd be great to get another pair.

Edit: RnR, are they selvage or not? I just want to make sure so I know how much Nudie has kept the LE not so LE.

Aah, that optical illusion t-shirt. It's bad enough looking at it on a PC or on a piece of paper, nevermind a t-shirt. Looks cool though.

nudie SS has slight bootcut, around 1 inch narrower around the knee than the hem.

No it does not. The Straight Sven is completely straight all the way through the leg.

--- Original message by minya on Feb 20, 2006 03:16 PM

i measured my 30x32 sven's, laid flat the hem is 9 inches and knee is 8.5 inches... not as significant as the bootcut on RR's..

--- Original message by kumo on Feb 21, 2006 01:14 AM

My SSLE seem to have the same measurements at the knee and hem (was only a quick measurement though)

i dunno i could see like some museum of some type picking them up. itd definately be an investment! how about everyone from superfuture pays like 100 and we'll share it.

i got dibs. my house the first week

--- Original message by showbiz00ditc on Feb 24, 2006 04:29 PM

still not enough. don't forget the shipping for the shoes...

--- Original message by aitsuka on Feb 25, 2006 05:54 PM

If every member that has ever been on Superfuture (5226 apparently) payed 100 dollars, we'd have more than enough. I doubt that more than 10% are active though.

I'd hang it.

I have to admit, some of their stuff looks great.

I also live near the area "Goole" mentioned at the beginning of the catalogue. I deserve a medal.

It really isn't hard to edit without photoshop.

No photoshop either:

Maybe if it wasn't so 'loud' and a little more subtle.

It was posted in the Sugarcane denim thread...

That lace-up part is actually the back, and if you look closely, you'll see that the jeans are made from 2 different kinds of denim (notice the different selvage edges)...

--- Original message by minya on Feb 28, 2006 12:03 PM

Yeah, you can see the difference in colour too.

alright so i've been reading around, searching around through the forums trying to find answers to my main questions but haven't had any real luck, and any answers would be very much appreciated

now i've noticed that most project jeans people have are on the more expensive side, limited levis, nudies, apc, etc, now is it possible to get similar results from wearing, say a pair of levi 505s from sears or will it come out like crap haha.

also on top of that, say i do pick up a pair of higher end jeans, do you basically just wear them for extended periods of time as much as possible or is there more involved.

any answers would be wonderful

thanks

You don't need to spend a load for fantastic results.

Well, if you were a massive corporation, and you were making a shit load of money wouldn't you "sell out" too? Think like a massive multi-national business.

Apart from the second, I think they're quite garish.

Sorry, I was having a bad day. I was facetious anyways. But I hate perfumes. And maybe they should return to the root of their centuries old art (natural essence combinations) instead of making synthetic scents that make my nostrils feel like they are getting raped.

To each their own. I like wearing cologne, even though I only wear it about 50% of the time (usually forget or just cba)

Can anyone recommend a scent for me?

I want something that smells, sweet (but not floral or citrus), spicy, and a little masculine (but not musky).

--- Original message by heartsandcrafts on Feb 21, 2006 07:25 PM

Just pick what you like the smell of.
