  1. Thank you for the ID and link, WM. Here's some more RM from Inventory Mag—the Sporting Clays look particularly good. Here's a pic:

    I have heard that the Vibram 2060 sole on these wears down pretty fast. Does anyone have first-hand knowledge? Thanks!

  2. Thanks for the comments. I know its sanforized - 1% shrink is the claim - but I have just discovered on the shop website that it should drop one size from 42 to 40 after a wash. In fact something similar happened to a pair of Wrangler jeans I had a few years ago and they ended up too small after one wash. This was probably in the back of my mind when I opted for the larger size. Anyway, I can take a chance on the first soak solving the size issue. But I think I more concerned about the colour and style. I like a deep indigo and my jacket, although still a dark denim, turned up a shade or two lighter than the colour you see in the pic I posted from the shop. And I am wondering whether I should have gone for another model, the 11MJZ (1957 I think). Here`s a pic

    As you can see its a Wrangler again and a very nice jacket too. It`s by Real McCoys and also more expensive. Thanks very much.

  3. I bought this Wrangler 11MJ (1947 model) off this internet yesterday. It`s a vintage denim replica made by Edwin Japan and cost me about 25,000 yen. It`s maybe a little too big for me and moreover I`m not sure I like it now it has arrived. Should I stick or twist: I have about one week in which to return it to the shop. Thanks very much.
