Wasn't expecting non-Levi's DSB's so these Cowboy's really piqued my interest: https://www.instagram.com/p/DFuS8wnTjVM/?img_index=1

Unexpected third wash due to a little slip and fall into icy mud today...Still drying but will post pictures if there's any notable changes. Was hoping to hold off to set in the whiskering 😅

I too had a period, let's call it 2016-2022, when denim was put on the back burner for more comfortable items like stretch waistband Uniqlo slacks and easy pants (styled with outdoor/tech wear), but also came full circle. Things got a bit too cosplay and stale for me if I'm being honest. Now I'd say I sort of just mix everything, with a focus on comfort, but have to admit that paying attention to trends and mixing in some of those "fashionable" items has kept things more fun, if not admittedly more capitalist lol. For example, I don't think I've ever loved a belt as much as my OUR LEGACY 2CM belt. I still mix in the odd Arcteryx jacket etc. for practicality (spend a good amount of time outdoors), but maybe layered with some army surplus, reverse weave sweatshirts, and some Alden's to clean it all up. But yeah, I'm definitely happier with my outfits now and have basically settled on this "look".

Genuine question, isn't this just what we used to call "anti fit"?
-
Agreed, this is fabulous! I'm an XXL kind of guy 😂
-
Clocking 46.5cm (BiG style) after two hot washes, but I wear them loose and figure they'd stretch if someone was apt. Gotta say these may be my favorite fitting jeans in a long time though. Looks like I'm going size 40 on everything moving forward 😂 Missed it too but Happy 6-0 @CSL!!

Don’t have a proper setup, so iPhone in the Levi’s dressing room fit pics it is 👍 This is my ideal fit! Glad I went up to size 40. Paired with FullCount Type 1 (15.5oz)

Crosspost for posterity: Into storage with the start of #WOMCON: OA01XX at 2.5 years, 5 washes, around 1-1.5hrs of dog walking wear per day only

Have a feeling these will be one of my best fitting pairs, despite sizing up to size 40! As for the denim itself, I think they'll be fairly fast faders, something about the crunchiness that's hard to explain, but something I think we all intuitively understand having handled dozens (if not hundreds) of pairs over the years 😆 Construction is on par for what I'd expect for someone emulating 1942's (I went with 411S), a little shoddy here and there in a good way, I think he did a great job! Also a big fan of the hardware used, particularly the hidden rivets on my 42's. It's been a while since I've had a new pair, but this really invigorates my love for the hobby again. I'd place them somewhere between TCB and Ooe on the vibes chart, closer to TCB but with a bit more personality. Will run them through the hot cycle twice and air dry. Probably going to avoid the dryer in general this time around if they crock as fast as I'm expecting and also want to go for a more 40's vintage fades look this go around. https://www.instagram.com/p/C6s4sbRPF_6/?img_index=3

Mentioned before that my package was half opened and only now just realizing my WMJ Flasher is missing 🤷♂️ I can only assume that Levi's secret police are out there, but luckily they left the marinara intact 😆

Lucked out! Received my pair today (package half opened, no less 🤧)

^Lovely family photos! Does he still have the jeans tucked away in some random attic, etc.?
-
Not in a rush at all, but wondering if anyone else's shipping is showing an estimated 16 more days til delivery?
-
^Excellent progress! This is some seriously stubborn denim, at least compared to my other Ooe pairs. Will post mine once I receive the WOMCOM jeans. Mine have 4 washes at over two years of wear and they still have years of life ahead of them and still super dark.
-
Flying blind on the fit, not sure how oversized they'll be (size 40 is new territory for me lol), so depending on the outcome they'll either be my dedicated all day every days at best, or my new dog walkers at worst. Either way I do plan to increase to a more normalized washing routine as I'm doing the no wash thing on my Ooe's which has caused damage to the crotch stitching. Excited to get this pair though! I will hold off on any other jeans purchases (excluding Ooe; Did I mention them enough yet?) through the duration of the contest in solidarity.

^Never got a good fit on any of my pairs either, but they finally make a size 38 so I'll eventually get around to it once I'm in Japan. Purchasing from their international shops is also way too rich for me, though I love basically anything/everything they do from a fashion brand perspective. Staff in Japan are always so incredibly nice as well

THIS OR THAT? (Use me for all your Should I Buy...? questions)
aho replied to tweeds's topic in superdenim
It's unfair but I've always been biased against Pherrow's because of the branding 😅 That said, I still like the Deluxeware better here. I like that they're sort of out in the middle of nowhere Akita doing their own thing but still making a premium product. Always wanted a pair but waiting for something less than 15oz (if it ever comes, or maybe it has and I'm not paying attention). -
More Inspiration Tokyo footage, this time from team Berberjin

Really kicking myself that I didn't pick up the 220A's while BEARS still had my size in stock. Didn't think I'd have enough time before the WOMCON/WOMBAT but the extra month with the contest delay would've worked out 🥲 Looking at the 220XX-47 now too, @Alec Leamas appreciate your updates! Can't believe how far they've come alone in three months

Whoa whoa whoa, what's with sufu legends dropping in suddenly from the ether? Horribly off topic, but @horriblyjollyjinx would love to see your Ooe's all these years later supposing you still have them?
