  1. Quick bump for a great brand.  I think these are new (unless I've missed it while browsing their site previously).  UES 400Z. 

     

    I just re-read what Lee from UES wrote on the first page of this thread about how UES measures.  You have to add 3cm to their rise measurements to get an accurate BIG style measurement.  The 400Z look to have a higher rise than the 400R/400S.  So for a pair of Size 32, it's 26cm, so add 3cm and we're at 29cm. 

     

    Anyway, the details look really nice on these:

    Check out the selvage on the cinch back!

  2. ^ From what I could get off Google Translate, yes, sanforized denim.  They have oneversion of the 40's cut and two of the 60's cut with a zip or button fly.  The cotton is a mix of Memphis, Texas, and Arizona.  I wonder what that specific blend does to the texture of the denim. 

     

    At 18900 Yen for the 40's cut and 15000 yen for the 60's cut, they seem to be a decent bargain. 

  3. ^ you're making me hungry...

     

    FYI for anyone interested in the F2206, Type 3 Jacket.  It's currently on sale for 20% off on Rakuten. And as a bonus, if you become a Rakuten Member, there's a promotion for free worldwide shipping up to 5000 Yen at participating stores.  The free shipping deal is through May 17. 

     

    I would have copped but the jacket measurements just look too slim for me.

  4. Yeah...the 400T is not what I hoped and the 400S might be too low rise and slim in the top block. Similar to Skulls

    And the 400R...maybe too "regular" ;)

     

    Ok...sometimes in the future I should own SDA (again) and maybe some more Sugarcane

     

    From what I understand (via the UES thread), the way UES measures their rise is different from how the majority of websites measures.  So I think you actually have to add a few centimeters to get the 'true' rise measurement. 

     

    Anyway, my list currently:

     

    UES 400R

    Porky's 66 or XX (with the old Arcs and 2 pigs on motorcycles pulling apart the jeans patch)

    SDA x Seasir (an old collab with an Okinawa shop that is now defunct, I think) 

  5. Trying to figure out how to size the 0105. Need a bit of sizing advice for anyone who has both the 1108 and 0105. I'm a 32 in the 1108C which fit comfortably. Thinking of getting some 0105. Should I stay at 32 or go down to 31?

  6. does that mean the waistband measures larger on sc? thanks

    you're testing my memory as it was quite a while ago but from what i can recall, the SC (raw) sized down 1 were about the same waist as the LVC. you can check for exact measurements on Rakuten or Self Edge for the SC1947.

  7. I wear a size 30 in LVC 1947 raw. What should I get for a 1947 Type I no-wash?

    Thanks in advance.

    i have both. went down 1 size on the SC47 compared to LVC. there's more diaper ass on the SC which i was trying to minimize.

  8. Buzz Rickson - Mock Twist Chambray. Size 15-15.5.  Worn twice, maybe 3 times.  Beautiful shirt with great construction.  It's just a bit big on me. 

     

    Here's the professional blurb:

     

    The Buzz Rickson's Mock-Twist Chambray Shirt is a garment of traditional quality. Made from premium mock-twist all-cotton chambray fabric.

    These are not fashion shirts made to look like work shirts, they are constructed with all the traditional tailoring spec of a true utility garment from the 1930/40s; seams are properly reinforced with support fabric and selvaged; double topstitching; urea buttons and authentic labelling.


    Nothing like this has been offered since the "good old days" of the 1940s when clothing had to last by necessity. One look and you will be immediately transported back to an era when America was the unquestioned king of goods.

     

    Price: $98

    Condition: Excellent

     

    Measurements (CM / Inches)
    Chest 54 / 21.26
    Sleeve Top 60 / 23.62
