I don't think it can be remedied. You could try soaking and pulling the legs whilst wet to get close to the original length. Other than that just embrace it. The jeans are far from ruined and I'm sure this has happened on many a true-vintage pair of Levi's. [edit] Broark and Volvo quicker than me. Wot they sed.

I think you've answered your own question I'm afraid. I can't imagine the repro makers that this forum tends to follow would bastardise a cinch with slim jeans. You could always size down and taper - but that would cock up the intended fit A guess would be SDA as they're more experimental.

Cucoo, I saw those on my Instagram feed and my first thought was this thread. Clearly the wise old denim craftsman sitting atop Mt. Fuji who only works when there's a temperate north-west breeze (or whatever tosh they came up) has too many left over scraps of selvedge.

It's probably worth sending an email through to the website as I guess they'll be able to do a direct comparison between the bush pants and the new 50s. We had a few sizing issues with the ranchman shirts. I think Inoue's tape measures are configured differently everyone elses! Does anyone know if the website uses circular or lay flat measuring method?

Mason, Washed will be a one-wash and rigid will be, as you suggest, unsanforised. I think it's pre-order for shipping end March.

I'll be intrigued by the hem measurements. A 60s cut would have been good for the shaft of engineer boots but I fear these may be too slim, let's see how it goes. Clearly the existing 50s fit would be optimal but experience has taught me that anything wider than a 60s fit just doesn't work for me. I might revisit measurements IH, what is the hem of your modified jeans 50s (which look great by the way). Or did they leave it alone?

This makes promising viewing for the slimmed down 50s. Cheers IH, great score.

Perfect fit Erk. Updates on my 50s jacket and ranchman. Jacket hasn't had much love recently but hopefully I'll up it over the spring & summer
-
Awesome, really nicely worn in. Love a long boot strap like that. Thanks Mason
-
Cool. Crazy to think they're already 25+ years old. Enjoy mate
-
Hey Mason, welcome. Your engineers look great, could you chuck up some more photos in the Boots thread please?
-
Never had a problem either. I suppose when sitting the pressure doesn't come from our lower back but upper and naturally the arse.
-
Fantastic. Interesting patch placement, assume that's from the original. Are you you planning to wear these more or keep them hauled away?
-
Looking very dapper in those chinos. Great pick-ups.
