That's seems to be exactly the problem. Not enough people

Rumor has it that Kurabo is closing mills and therefore the Warehouse x Kurabo work for Denime will stop. They are releasing a "special edition" Denime 220A. Just the 220A but sealed in a plastic bag. Seen here https://www.instagram.com/p/DKonKoNJMGh/?igsh=ZDV3OTBuazFidHZl The other pair looks like a 20th Anniversary model, no idea why it is posted here as well.

For scientific reasons, right?

This FAQ text is a bit more...open to interpretation let's say https://help.japanrabbit.com/en/articles/5299521

Damn...I was hoping they still would

Re marbling: yes it has a tendency to marble quite easily when machine washed. But not as bad as the denim from the Denim Bridge contest. Last day at the beach. Cold and windy

Without knowing any details but have owned the 66 model at one point, I'd guess they see themselves rather as a fashion brand and just have higher margins. It's not like the jeans feel 10k ¥ better. But maybe smaller runs with special fabrics also contributes to the higher prices? Who knows? But between Boncoura or Freewheelers I would chose the latter and it feels also better. But of course, in the end you have to take what you like better and what fits better.

My source was not totally sure but probably he left in good terms and is probably getting the denim from Collect Mills.

Because of a sick kid, we nearly cancelled our trip. Driving through whole Germany to reach the Dutch coast today. Now staying in this "tiny house" for a week.

Totally right 👍

Yesterday there was a Wrangler repro on Yahoo Auction. One-wash, size 34. 1000¥ and 3 hours running. Anybody from here bought it?

@Maynard Friedmanit represents the Orizzonti era. In 1998 the tag was changed to Orizzonti. D-HG-1118 was before that

Lee Archives really does a great job in reproduction. Certainly better than LVC but we kinda know that 😅 And also fairer priced.

@Dr_Heech what i wondered, the guarantee ticket still says 10oz denim on the above pair and obviously on the other WW2 models as well. Yet all WW2 models use a heavier denim and often say, heavier was used during WW2. Did Levi's just didn't bother to update the ticket? And when did they change that?

And some impression of the 1942 i got from the second run:

You can also buy Del Bombers from Gleem (who also seem to have their own in-house brand) @chicote Here your pair in question, not much info there though https://gleem.ocnk.net/product/251 And Del Bombers is also a shop: https://delbombers.ocnk.net/product-list/36
