Could you describe the cut of the 47 as a little boot-cut like? How is it compared to the 55?

Do you think there will be changes in the '47 next year? In many online stores it is sold out and i am wondering what could be made more autenticly than today.

theres a book by him? I know, I am asking a lot of question, i hope you don't mind.

for how long is lvc around? '99?

yes, absolutely. as long as i can get them, i don't care if they don't have a big community in the us or anywhere...

i have the feeling that the levis cutsomer service doesn't read the mail they get very attentively

so levis really should listen to their customers-maybe they would see that they are making mistakes. this happens so often. you think of a company 'well, can't they see what's wrong' I mean, most times, they are not stupid and know what theuy're doing.... (like the discussion if the iPhone should have a real keyboard ) it's my first selvage jeans and so I searched the web for lets say 2-3 weeks and found out there's a community of people being addicted to the stuff. it's ike sneakers or just so many things. what really got my attention on those '47 that I own 2 pairs of (is this correct english), is the cut. I mean those modern 501 aren't what I was looking for (cut and the style...). But I guess it's gonna be interesting the next months/years...

yes, would be interesting. though the lvc line could be advertised like nothing else. it's like coke, only premium. like levis says on their website: the spirit and heart of the products nowadays. shure, thats pure marketing but I think (I am not an expert) they could make more out of this. as s.o. said. some might not even know that there's sth. like LVC

Is Europe a better market for LVC and why? Because US is where it all started?

EDIT: OK, the money, I see.

whats the deal? all of the levi stores stop getting ALL lvc. anyone know US stores that still have em?

yea, that's really annouying. hopefully no sign of stopping to produce them...

"10 is usually it". Do you mean 10 percent? Or

So..I just did my very first soak! my 1947 went from 34/32 to about 31 1/2 / 30. Just Perfect!

Edit: Will there be more shrinkage over the next washes? because I am going to wash those let's say every 2-4 weeks. i don't want them to have those huge contrasts as others have.

@airfrog. well, thats the type of style i want to get. Wahsed kinda normally? so every month o2 two weeks?

thanks

Again a newb question:

What's the difference between a soak and a wash? Soaking menas shrinking? @airfrog: How often did you wash the soakes jenas?

What's the best way to soak? Sit in the tub for 2 hours an then get out and wear your jenas?

But the -now- vintage 501s came in the dark indigo originally?

Newb question:

All those vintage jeans have this dark indigo as there was no bleeching or sth in the factory. My question : Until 1983 (last year the jeans were made from the vintage selvage with redline etc...?), was this dark indigo the only colorway that was available for the buyers ( would be logical). ?

What is the best way to get a brighter colour out of a new and unworn 501 1947 rigid dry jeans? Washing or Soaking or both?

so let's hope, that Levis will produce them in the future....

Oh. Well, i think it's my fault. Its the GB store and GBP. So 135 pounds should equal the 179 USD at cultizm.

Here the link

OK, thanks. I though have one question. Why are e.g. the 1947s at cultizm pricier than at the Levi's online Store. There, the 1947s cost 150 bugs. Or is there a difference between those?

I once bought a 1947 vintage 501 with big E and redline for 90 GB Pounds. Maybe 120 USD.

Why should Levi's discontinue them? This would be very..well...I don't know^^

Wangen. It is near the Lake Constance. In the more or less beautiful Allgäu!

Thanks for welcoming me!

Good, old Germany ..

PS: Ein Hamburger, wenn ich das richtig lese? Guten Abend:D

OK, so this forum won't fall asleep

As I am not a nativ speaker, maybe I don't understand the ironic part?

Hi,

is Levis poducing a LVC collection this year. I read this here but I'm not quite shure. I asked this before but there will be lvcs next year?

Thanks again

I am new to this forum and to Levis LVC.

I have a question about the general availabilty of Levis LVCs directly from (online-) stors. Will Levis maybe discontinue the LVS line?

Because I am relly in love with my 1947 501s and I'd like to have a chance to buy them in the future.

Thanks very much!
