I did. But in the Blunders thread

I was thinking the same. Another thought: We know he trains his 2nd and 3rd generation who are supposed to produce the M-54 and M-66 jeans for example (and lots of other stuff). We don't know if he also let his trainees do the M409 items as well (but I think he is honest when saying only he does the stuff).

He only takes orders when you go to the store in person. But I'm sure Neal could persuade him to change his rules

Looking for those fades...

I agree with many of your sentiments. CSF was never about "high quality" in terms of construction or sewing, the only focus was on "authenticity" (whatever that means when copying). They are probably still the best, original feeling Levi's repros out there (although I don't know if this also applies to their cuts/patterns) but if the new price will really be 60,000 Yen that a price hike by nearly 50% and that with all due respect is just excessive.

What's the difference between the two? The Specials' arcs look more like modern Levi's arcs

Do the 50s also use this new Warehouse denim? edit: just saw they don't. Here is another shop with the 46, size 31 or for you? https://www.e-cream.jp/item/WHS1001XX-25-NONWASH/

Here you go: https://crossovers.shop/items/5f1286c84adba01c77dc82e2 Maybe they sell overseas?

First time ever I had to repair this area...(the outer line of the fly stitching, if it isn't too obvious) Crotch shot...you're welcome

Interview/introduction to Shinya Mills by Ryo from TCB https://tcbjeans.myshopify.com/blogs/ニュース/shinya-mills

Anypone else saw the price for the new M47 "Grand Opening" jeans? 60.000 Yen is a statement. I'm sure they will still sell though...

No. Just wear the jeans until the rest of the fabric catches up

It's the same one I bought from as well. They do state "tax included" but that is wrong. Their prices are in fact shown without tax.

Which store of them did you use? I paid 15800¥ which is the price without taxes and it was displayed this way from the beginning. Otherwise you would pay 17380¥ for the SC42021 when tax is included

Ah thts is interesting to hear. Haven't seen any info about them changing the Pioneer denim. Do you happen to know what is different?

I really dig this elegant curve on the sewing of the back pocket on these SC42021

The difference is one inch. Here you can see the different measurements in cm https://www.sapporo-base.jp/smp/item/RESOLUTE_011.html

I would measure your preferred inseam length and buy accordingly. Do you want to be able cuff? Add the size of the cuff to the inseam length. Which inseam lengths the correct one is totally up to your personal preference

If you want to shrink them more, yes the dryer is the best option. Either this or just buy them in a shorter inseam version to begin with

Yes, the 710 runs smaller. You have to pay attention to the hip and thighs measurements. Stevenson jeans are notoriously vanity sized so going up several sizes from SOC is normal. What do you jeans measure in the waist and thighs?

The earliest pair ever

I bought this stuff from CitronJeans https://www.etsy.com/de/listing/549890481/100-baumwollfaden-fur-vintage-jeans?ref=shop_home_active_60&crt=1

You could try and ask Rivet&Hide. They used to sell those jeans and might still have the measurements somewhere
