    Nice pocket bags, and looks like they adjusted the cut slightly (at least on the larger sizes.
    Waist is a touch smaller, thighs are bigger and rise is significantly lower.
    Admittedly I couldn't stand the fit of the S40s contest jeans, so it's nice to see some revisions.

    Looks really better than the contest pair back then.

    @beautiful_FrEaK will have purchased 4 more pairs by the time his WOM come...

    Actually just one hand that depends on when the new SC1945 is really released. Already pre-ordered them some months ago.

    Apparently there are only a handful of vintage war jeans with flannel pockets.

    TCB has just started a pre-order for their new pair. They found a pair with different ones.

    I just found it interesting that this worn-in pair from the book and the deadstock pair the 1943 model is based on are actually made at the same time and both survived the time. 

  3. Thanks for compiling and reposting the shrink data!

    In terms of sizing, in this contest we have way more info than on the other contest I remember. 

    I might go with a W36 again...motivation to shed some lbs and thus keep fitting all the other jeans I own 😅

  4. Makes you wonder if they are really vintage and not just made by Sugarcane to then make a repro of it.

    Something CSF was "accused" to do at one point over on the...other forum... 😅

  5. I might have missed that or must be stupid but these #23 jeans from the Levi's 501 book have oddly familiar pocket bags (sorry if it has been posted before)

    Besides Sugarcane and CSF, the Chinese repro brand Mobilization also uses this pattern.

    This reminds me: I assume we can post whenever, and there isn't an EOM window. Since there are only 25 of us and no one is cheating, it seems more fitting that we post when we feel like it. Plus we have 10 judges to crack the whip...

    Definitely! No mandatory monthly check in. Post whenever you feel like doing it (best: daily).

  7. Hello again 👋

    Simone is working on some more detailed description of all the models available for this contest so it will be easier for you guys to decide!

    Apart from the customisation listed earlier (e.g. hidden rivets on the 311 optional), there will be no customisation or non-period correct details, e.g. herringbone twill pockets bags on the 5150.

    Let's wait and see what he works out!

     

    Of course, it's an old-school Sufu contest and the action plays here. However, if you are active on Instagram and want to promote this contest and Simone's work, we suggest the following three hashtags:
