  1. Thanks for the info gents, sounds like a good idea to me. There are some green things in there that look like cabbages and I’m sure there’s a banana too!
  2. What’s going on there? A load of food stuck on a wallpaper pasting table or travelling along a conveyor belt? I’ve never heard of a seafood boil, please explain…
  3. Well done @Geeman! Did you specifically request your year of birth as your race number?
  4. What line of graft are you in @bod?
  5. I thought we’d made it clear that the Levi’s and/or third party factories don’t make the denim or any of the other materials, they simply use them to make the jeans. In most cases US-made LVC jeans use Cone denim, although some of the earlier models have used Japanese denim. I think the White Oak label was only added to the later pairs from something like 2015 or 2016, I’m not sure of the date. I hope that all makes sense now.
  6. As @beautiful_FrEaK mentioned, the factory code on LVC jeans buttons represents the specific Levi’s or third party factory responsible for assembling all the materials (denim, thread, hardware, patch, pocket bags) into a pair of jeans.
  7. The factory code for those is 643M, which I think is a third party. EDIT: I think it was the Taylor Togs factory in North Carolina.
  8. Surely those Warehouse are just a version of the Levi’s 1910 Lot 333.
  9. Look at the queues to get up Mt Snowdon/Yr Wyddfa! 🙄
  10. They’re looking good bod and they seem to have a nice green cast to them.
  11. It looks good on you. What size did you buy @Cold Summer?
  12. They are 47 501s made in autumn (fall) 2006 in USA. LVC HQ used to be in Europe, either that address in Brussels or in the old Olympic stadium in Amsterdam.
  13. River junction I think. I got a couple of cinch buckles from them. You’re right, the shipping costs were ridiculous, I think someone from the US proxied them for me. I’d forgotten about them, not sure if they’re still in business.
  14. Not as old as 00’s Champion but I bought this reverse weave hoodie in ‘90 or ‘91 from Interstate and have barely worn it this millennium. My son wore it for a bit and gave it back to me as he has plenty of his own that fit him better. It’s more faded in real life than these iphone photos suggest.
  15. Are they not still available Neal? Or is it a matter of exercising self restraint?
  16. I like those arcs. As a non-purist, I prefer arcs that are Levi’s-esque but not quite Levi’s, like those on Full Count, old Sugar Cane or Samurai, or even upside down ones (eg via selective unpicking of the Warehouse double arcs). I also like that pink colour, which LVC repro’d on their ‘44s a good few years back.
