The LVC website is updated with the fall collection. They also created some videos showing how to buy raw 501. They can be seen on the historic 501 timeline. Website seems a bit more useful to me with more structure and links to the collection from the main page. Seems like they are getting really serious with their themed releases. I know, they did that for some years now, but aside from trade shows I never really found much about the collection and how it came to be..

If anyone is interested in a tailored chino in sz. 34 with cone's beautiful indigo selvage canvas, have a look at my supermarket thread...It's a shame but I am currently selling quite a few stuff in order to raise money. 

 

edit: sold, thx.

nothing for sale at the moment

I am selling two LVCs on denimbro - 1947 36/34 nwt. It's a bit of a shame but I am eagerly trying to raise money for another bass guitar, so...

 

I hope it's not forbidden to post a link here. If so, please delete my post.

What to expect from the 1978 black overdye 501? Is it going to fade nicely and reveal a mixture of black and blue tones with wear?

Roping looks good. Quite aggressive fades, but I like it.

BTW, caliroots.com is having a pre easter sale. If you have an account you get 20% on all stuff, incl. LVC. They still have a few sizes of the 78 501 (one " oversized) and nearly all sizes of the 54 501.

just edited a post above... dr. heech is right, they are about 1 inch bigger. Sorry for bringing in a bit of confusion. The denim feels really nice and thick and quite starchy. I hope they bring them in more often from now on. Paul T, some measuring shure would be great, as sizing seems to be consistent at least for the last 3-4 seasons.

This video surfaced on some blogs a few days ago. Seeing this I wonder how exactly the XX group is organized now? Did they just take all the people and bring them to SF or is there something going on in Amsterdam as well?

The 55 is not that huge anymore, is it? I think they changed that after fw09.

caliroots, for example, shows the new run as being 2 inches oversized.

edit: They now adjusted their measurements, but not for good, it seems. They are now tts. dr. house is right, they ae about 1 inch bigger than tagged.

They are 2" oversized, right?

Thank you gentlemen! I should have done more research (=reading), as warehouse has a extra button for overseas shipping under each product description.

Those 1100 look good! As I also prefer shorter inseams, I really like your fit.

b_f, would you have any suggestions, how to get a 1100 to germany?

edit: problem solved.

Is anyone interested in a roy rn04 size 36/34? It is a reeal pity, but I just can't make the top block work. Fits quite good in the waist, but thighs then are too big for me. I would let it go for quite cheap, so please PM.

Ok, I see now. Arcs are higher up, as well. And I would agree with you, looks better. Thank you for clarifying.

What is different from other seasons?

A short article about LVC at Inspiration.

The 55 always has had very narrow lops with nearly no fabric beside the seam, I think. I had a look in my closet; the 47 from SS11 still had wider loops. But I certainly don't want to argue with you here . And yes, it's a pity they changed that.
