  1. Yup, must have picked them out of the wrong container. They're a totally normal 1947 in every other respect.

    I was there a few years before, when they were producing the Capital E reissues that predated LVC; I remember a big plastic box with the red tags, and being tempted to pick up a handful. There weren't that many people sewing there, maybe a dozen. I wish I'd had a camera with me.

    Astute observation everyone :D

  2. If they are a LVC Japan 54 replica,than it should be a 55 cut instead of a 47? The inner tag should give more info.Anyway,very nice purchase!

    Thanks. I paid $149.00. I didn't realize that it was a '55 instead of '47, but thanks for the correction!

    Here are some more pics:

  3. Quick question...

    I bought a LVC 1947 (with a Big E red tab) on ebay.

    Thing is I remember Paul T mentioning that the 47's only had LEVIS written on one side. My LVC 47's have LEVIS written on both sides. Plus it says 555 on the top button. Does this mean that my pair is fake? Can somebody help me? :confused:

    Thanks.

  5. studite, it looks like your pair has been tapered. try measuring the hem, my NS size 27 is around 7.5 inch at the hem.

    Yes it has been tapered. Hem is 6.75.

    Does this mean it's not fake then?

  6. Does anybody have a wide selvage on their NS?

    I got it from ebay, could be fake?

    Mine is size 27 fyi

    Here are some pics of what I am talking about:
