    It's a really nice wash, got it off eBay but ended up chatting quite a lot with the seller.

    Apparently it had some sort of resin coating originally which was designed to make it fade quicker/in a nicer way.

    I've actually got the matching 47 501s, just waiting to get them hemmed as they're pretty long. Another pair that have been in storage that I can now fit into :D

    Absolutely love the jacket though, very few LVC denim jackets that fit big enough to be loose on me. Got a Valencia Street one too that fits quite a bit shorter.

    Three cheers for fitting into old denim again! Same boat and I'm swimming in vintage jeans .

    I'm hoping the jacket turns the same colour as the dog

    Great photo and great fit. Jeans have that perfect iconic shape and I love the leg twist and rr tracks. 

    And that jacket will look even more amazing with a few years on it. 

    Plus a cute pooch. 

  3. Recent vintage Levi's 501s.

     

    Tag reads 33 x 30 but they measure 34 x 28.  Made in USA. 522 button. 

    Red tab cut off or worn down,  crotch completely blown out, denim washed down and broken with bright blue indigo and a yellowish cast.  And maybe the best fitting pair of 501s I have ever owned. 

    Bought these already trashed many years back at Salvo but only recently fit into them.

    Can't wait to see the evolution on those double dark Mister Freedom.   The fades I've seen from that denim are stunning. Great fit. 

  5. I know this is mostly a denim thread but I have a soft spot for LVC sweatshirts and Tees. The cuts fit my short stocky ass better and they can usually be picked up at a hefty end of season discount.

    I know they aren't as hardcore faithful as some of the loopwheeled Japanese repro brands but I love the freedom sleeves and very wearable fabric weight on the crewnecks. And the design of the 1950s hoodie is like nothing else out there. I also have one in black with some of the nicest heaviest French terry ever.

    I'm always a sucker for vintage inspired details on sweats. But a kangaroo pocket and padded elbows on a crewneck?  Yes please.

    great fit on th ejeans and nice shirt too.

    My Tweeds....

    I like how they are coming along. The color is best represented by the lap picture. The tweed yarns are really popping out.

    These have enjoyed a room temp soak and a room temp hand wash with bronners at 4 months. They are currently riding on 5 months.

    some of the coolest jeans ever.

    maybe they will make more?

    edit: just noticed they released another run of these while i slept. fuck.

  9. ^^nice job. you should continiue to get some shrinkage out of those too fyi.

    the 505's i picked up... I'm 99% sure these are raw, gonna soak them today:

    i really hope you didnt size up too much on those because your shrinkage will be very minimal if any. 505s are sanforized or pre shrunk and not shrink to fits.

    nice jeans still but they will not shrink much.

  10. Today I saw an industry expert who told me a little more about what's happening with LVC.

    Whatever else happens, I'm looking forward to lots of new intriguing items.

    didnt want to quote the whole thing again but great news!

    Am I reading into Paul's post that LVC might do some (purposely) non-authentic selvedge jeans. I'd love to be able to buy some Japanese style combinations of vintage elements. For instance a 66 style jean with hidden rivets on the back pockets and decent arcs (I hate 66 arcs but like the cut). I love the vintage repro's and wouldn't want them to go away but I'd really like to see them also treat selvedge jeans like a living, evolving, thing for modern bodies without getting as far out as the Levi Red engineered stuff.

    you just described my ideal pair of levis. 66 cut (button fly of course ) hidden rivets, proper arcs. heres hoping.

  11. i agree. pound for pound ande makes some of the best stuff on the planet with his own hands.

    even at the higher price you are getting your monies worth and supporting a true artist and gentleman to boot.
