Lovely @silencejoe why is it your last purchase may l ask?
-
Thanks but alas l am not copping. With the Reverse yoke model it seems that only the year 1941 is used to describe it , not 1940-42. So a very brief experimental period for the manufacture of the 501 then? I did try and find out years ago about the csf war denim but drew a blank. Maybe it's a secret? Edit. Also looking at your above query, traditionally levis 501 had 3 button fly plus waistband button until c.1936, when they gained a fourth fly button.
-
That's fine don't worry. Saw a pair of sz 32's on their site and they had four fly buttons. Won't be buying them anyway certainly not at 260 quid plus whatever import taxes etc as well (l thought originally they were 200ish). Got stung pretty harsh on my last imported denim with import duties. They look great and all but l will have to wait until your forthcoming buckleback photo-bomb and live vicariously through you instead mate.
-
Thanks for that, yes that's my understanding up until now but l wanted to be 100% sure as a ex-Lvc fan l still have nightmares of button fly inaccuracies compared to originals 😂
-
Love these tiny salesman samples and wouldn't normally bother posting but for it's rarity l just had to this once. And just for the record, l am not Dr levis.
-
What size did you end up ordering Grant? Looking at the pics, that size 31 only has three fly buttons whereas an original would have had four plus the waistband button. How many has yours?
-
Really tempted by these Hinoya exclusive 1941 DSB model despite owning the CSF 1941 model already. I need another pair of bucklebacks like l need a hole in the head. Luckily l'm a bit skint atm and when l do finally get round to having a bit of disposable income, they will probably be sold out in my size 😁
-
Wondering what in your opinion is an unreasonable amount of jackets?
-
That would fit me perfectly, unfortunately l already have a vintage M-51 field jacket which is similar and l alteady don't give it the attention it deserves.

@CSL Seen these shots a dozen times, father and son l believe ^.

Absolutely., although they did quote the source (via denimbro). -
Denim Blunders, Reflections and General Nonsense.

I was honoured by Heddels years ago when they "borrowed' some of my denimbro pics, explaining the difference between the V stitch and the waist chainstitch 501's. Probably still there. -
'Come on chief, just put the ball In the basket' Good shout @MJF9
-
@LazyS Many thanks for sharing all your Stay brave photos.
-
Thanks mate, knew someone here would be organised enough 😉
-
Ahh yes, similar to my CSF WW2 pair l think - based on pair #24 in the book?
-
Thanks. Looking at the previous page l think there are 5 contestants who are donning the 30s pairs, so just four more.
-
@beautiful_FrEaK So which contestants are rocking the buckleback pairs again? @Broark and @MJF9 surely ?
-
Jinkies! etc
-
I don't know but l think he would have got away with it if it wasn't for you meddling kids !
-
Looks like another legend in the making @scooby
-
Happy birthday @mlwdp, you don't look a day older than 39.
-
Looking sharp Carl, and l'm not talking about the microwave.

Green Giant? 😂

@indigoeagle here is a YouTube video of the forthcoming SC42 model and they discuss the differences between the Levi's 37, 41 and 42 models.
