  1. Yeah I'm kind of heartbroken about selling them, but I'm relatively convinced I could never get back down to <32.

    Also, I forgot to mention that the Canes are actually a 33x31.25". They were hemmed shorter by the previous owner. Edited to reflect that

  2. Hello all,

    Getting rid of 2 pairs that I wont have time to give any love to because my work has limited jeans to fridays only.

    NWOT FOB Factory F151 32x34 - 175$ shipped stateside

    Got these early 2007, been hanged up on my wall ever since. No wear, no wash, still have that cardboard stiffness to them. The F151 is a slimmer 47 cut. Not supposed to stretch much from what ive read.

    True measurements- 31.75"x34"

    5 button fly, red selvage, including coin pocket, hidden back pocket rivets, "original" arcs, red tab, apache patch

    Onewash Sugarcane Persimmon 33x34 - 80$ shipped stateside

    Got these used over the summer, no indication of the actual model number, but it say lot 285 on the patch. Im sure its a 1947 replica on the cut though, just with the natural persimmon dye.

    True measurements 33"x31.25" Hemmed from 34" by previous owner

    5 button fly, red selvage, including coin pocket, hidden rear rivets, levis arcs, red tab.

  3. hey john can you give measurements of your pair now? i bought a pair of 151s a long time ago sizing down 1 (to a 32). It was discouraging to see that pre wash they were already 31.5, as well as reading the recomendation of sizing up 2. so can you give me an idea of how much they stretched and how long it took to stretch? i knew i wasnt selling these for a reason!

  4. you really can do anything, one friend in law school finished with a bs in mech. engineering, while another just did pol sci. law was gonna be my pursuit also, but the length of schooling and the apparent and eventual raping of my soul turned me off on it.

  5. if youre wearing your jeans while soaked, then hot or cold it wont matter since you cant keep the water warm. welcome to the future, please read the stickies to expand your knowledge and post small questions in the small questions thread.

  6. this is what im set on so far...

    redline 15 oz fabric from cone

    dior 21 oz cut, slightly modded.

    painted green tag

    superfuture tag inside (still havent got word from wayne so this isnt 100%)

    leather patch with jeans pulling apart a person

    blue and black stitching

    green pocketbags

    green halflined back pockets

    not sure about rivets or back pocket stitching yet

    still accepting ideas for other details.

  7. you can file a claim. that claim will then go under investigation and a ruling will be made. if its between 2 personal accounts however, the most they can do is withdraw funds from the wrongdoers paypal account, not the bank account it is linked to.at least thats what happened on my last claim i filed.

    the best you can hope for usually is a moral victory. reversing payments made by credit cards i hear is a lot more common than pp reversals.

  8. too dior-ish i think since itll already be a 21cm cut, or at least based off it. what if we alter the lee lazy s instead of levis arcuates? i really like samurai's adaptation of it.

    id probably be wallowing in a pair of 1945s if i didnt know about adsurgo or cheeps projects. must ...not... buy new denim while i wait for these jeans.

  9. there are services like escrow.com that acts like a middle man if you want security. havent used it myself so i dont know how much they actually rake in per transaction, but it sucks that so many people try to pull shit making these sorta things necessary. especially here where the community isnt so large and threads like waywt build a kind of camaraderie between members.
