  1. I know they are not the same jeans, I was asking for a comparison. Measurements seems pretty similar except the rise, and I believe it might have an impact. I was basically asking the opinion of people who had bought both jeans.

    Ive been interested in those dubbleworks since that contest thread, let us know if you get the SExDB's and describe how they differ

  2. I cant imagine what mine will look like in two months, had these about a week and a half and already ive got wallet fades, whiskers, phone fades, and even a bit on my combs. These guys are loosin it fast but i guess thats why i bought them :)

  3. My opinion:

    form follows function. Anything collectible now had tremendous utility in its day - hence why old levis work wear is coveted and most people on this forum strive for the urban farmer look. (remember the $1000 ebay cowbow worn levis?) The same goes for those vintage sewing machines. It wont be long until those union specials start ending up in museums.

    My speculation - what low key brand, practically ignored by the fashion crowd exists today? Carhartt. If they start producing special edition hand made highly detailed items, i would jump all over it.

    Nobody is going to want fashionable junk like todays skinny pants just like nobody now wants 80's era parachute pants.

    If utility is a no-go i would bet on the innovators. The hard part about picking those guys out is that it usually requires years of historical context

  4. Hey guys, trying to sell some RRL Japanese selvedge jeans -

    Wore them for about 2 weeks, decided they just didn't fit right on me.

    32x32, "One Rinse" Raw model.

    No major wear or tear. If any fades exist they are slight. The combs had started to form as well as some whiskers. There are some creases at the bottom from cuffing - could be taken out with a little spray of water and a book. One leg has a slight wear line at the cuff before i raised it more. Had to do a minor repair on the chain stitching on the bottom because it began unraveling slightly. see the picture. No washes, soaks or any stains.

    Looking for $90...drop:$80...drop:$60 SOLD!!!
