Nice, now I have another reason to go to Amsterdam,

Anybody have the "Levi´s® 1936 506xx TYPE I BLANKET LINED JACKET". If so what do you think? That things tempting at $200.

The 55's are back at Cultizm. Are these the new LVC line?

I have one. size S. bought one in a sale last year for 99 Euro. has "made in Turkey" on the label. Denim feels a bit thin. I love the blanket-lining.

Hey,

I think you got your facts a bit mixed up here. Correct me if im wrong. The 1001 does use the 3xxx denim. All the slim cuts are based off of the 3001 (which was the first slim cut that flat head came out with). Only the BSPs and the Inazuma collabs have a different slim cut.

1001 is 16 oz denim

3001 is 14.5 oz

look it up on selfedge yourself.

If need be, I think I would cop from the FH from the UK site... seems as if they have a healthy stock of both.

How significant is the difference thickness-wise? Do you think there's a significant difference to the point of being uncomfortable in the summertime?

And is the zipper/button fly issue just a matter of preference for you? Or does the zipper just suck?

16oz vs 14.5 oz in summer doesn't matter that much, compared to wearing 21 oz sammies in summerweather. I wear my 1001 in summer just fine.

If you like a slim FH cut and a buttonfly then there is no choice but to go for the 1001. If zipper is no issue for you, then go with the 3001 and get guaranteed nice fades with hard wear.

Quick sizing question. Do the 1001s stretch more than the others because of the denim weight? I am a 35" waist. When I tell people that they tell me to get a size 33. But most others say go true to size. What do you guys think?

go down 1" max if you like it tight. otherwise just go true to size. Its even better if you can try them on before you buy.

Do Flathead 1001's stretch a lot? I'm mostly concerned about the thigh.

don't expect the thighs to stretch alot. Mine stretched very minimal at the thighs.

got any pics?

Only got a pic of my Denime. Taken last may.

Suspenders rock!!! I love to wear suspenders with my denime and LVC 1901, both only have suspenderbuttons. Wish my LVC1937 had some suspenderbuttons on them from the start.

Can someone please help me? I have a very hard time deciding which pair of jeans to get....Samurai S5000VX or Iron Heart 634S, both 21oz denim. As for IH 634S, I got my questions answered regarding to sizing. But for the Samurai S5000VX, I heard mixed reviews about the sizing.

According to this thread on the 1st page: http://www.superfuture.com/supertalk/showthread.php?t=48318. It says size down 1 for regular fit and size down 2 for slim fit......but that post was back in early 2008, so does it still applies as of right now?

I think the sizingadvice on the 5000VX was for the 19oz version.

I'd just size down 1 max for the 21oz version.

Hello,

I have a question does anybody known wich type this Denime is how the fit is is it slim/straight or baggy/roomy. and how the quality of the jeans is and the jeans is and how it fades.

their is a blue tab as you can see i think its old.

I have a pair of these. Picked them up for 40 euro last february. Here is a pic of me wearing them from the WAYWT denim thread in May,

They fit pretty loose and suspenderbuttons rock!

its the same guy

whats the word for a garment that is in between a jean jacket and a chambray shirt...?

Ideally, it wouldn't need to be tucked in and could be thrown over a polo if it gets chilly.

maybe a chore coat

god I love this thread

Samurai 5000VX 21oz

size 28

Off to Frankfurt to do some kendo on saturday. Tengucup here I come.

nothing wrong with a machine wash. I threw my lvc 501 1937 in the washer and dryer twice already.

a machine-wash won't destroy your jeans.

Denime I bought for 40 Euro last february. Still don't know what model it is.

lovely weather today.

nice deal! where did you buy them?

At a wintersale of Mode d'emploi. Its a denimstore in The Hague, Netherlands.

I bought these denime for 40 Euro a few months ago. blue tab and suspenderbuttons W30. does anybody have more info on this one, because the tag doesn't have anything printed on it.

thanx in advance

yup, the Netherlands has mother's day on the 10th of may this year.

Decided to give my Samurai 5000VX 21oz some love today. Haven't been wearing them much since I got them in january. Woke up with a sore throat and a nasty cough. went out to get somtehing for mother's day
