with a retail $495 they don't resemble the original idea of the No. 2 pieces... they feature a somewhat strange belt loop position, at least for 501 predecessors https://hypebeast.com/2025/3/levis-vintage-lot-release-info

So after more than 15 years of what I recall it's second run in LVC history, Levi's eventually drops the 1920s No. 2 Denim waist overalls and jackets within the next days. I had sold the second iteration years back and were lucky to get my hands on a pair of the Valencia versions recently... anyone knows if they use cotton threads nowadays?

I would have expected a crazy leg twist with those long inseams, assuming they had been fully shrunken

to me these look similar to my pair 1880 pair which had been dropped 2016ish, it was made from the very last Natural Indigo Denim recreated by Cone Mills right before they shut there factory down for good... we would need to have more pics of the the inside labels though to verify.

@willi I'm a little confused regarding those late 40s. Did TCB just update their WW2s or is their a new model in the line. Just asking for I couldn't find another pair online other than their ww2... On your photos it seams they don't feature a red tab, which was one thing I like TCB for. Could you confirm?

@indigoeagle thanks al lot for the insight! funnily its easier getting my hands on a pair of at last&co repros than on a real Lee archive pair in Europe... 20 years ago you could find the hair on hide pairs every now and than.

Bronson Mfg 1936 I am curios if they use cotton thread, otherwise a decent pair and who can resist these arcuates... they come in right hand rather than left hand denim. Can anyone tell, if Lee used left hand denim exclusively ?

@HGS some decent train tracks!

I'm aiming for a late 30s pair to be released by Denime/Warehouse. 😔
