Interested in the slim 50s. Do they shrink when washed and how much do they stretch post wash. Thanks!

Thanks mate! Levi’s said on this particular model to go TTS in waist and take a larger inseam. But i went with a 34/32 cause 34/34 was sold out and ik could just pick this up for around €110,- so i just took the shot. 
 

gave these bad boys a hot-soak, let them dry for around 2 hours and start wearing them these day, damn tight in the waist but after a few hours they already are a little looser. 
 

overall fit is great i guess, normally i wear slimmer jeans but as a started collector (again) a lieve of LVC can’t miss.. see the fit for now 

Just curious how much these ended up stretching in the waist for you.

 @beautiful_FrEaK Thanks for the info man. I'm just gonna go tts and see. What's the difference between the 900 and 900xx then?

@Lazerr Thanks for that info. Nice to hear you have a pair of the 900s, they don't get enough love imo. My best guess would be the 900xx is the three cotton denim. To the best of my recollection the old 900s were a single type of cotton. All I know is I'm getting a pair of the 900xx's, now I just need to figure out whether to size up one or go tts.

I've heard it's best to size up on the 900s but do they stretch out at all?

Nice dude, thanks for letting me know how you soaked them. Love the fit on those. Hopefully they loosen up in the waist for you  

@Heavy_blue Nice to see somebody give the 84 501s a go. Did you size up at all? Did you hot soak or cold soak?

Anyone know if these are still being made? I'm looking for the 5010xx model. Denimio says they don't have a restock date. Thanks

Actually grabbed some one wash 105s yesterday from Canoe Club last week with a lot of enthusiasm and excitement because the things are just so neppy. Like for real. It was great and I felt great about my kop. 

But then I wore them and things changed. I'm not so into the fit anymore. I'm thinking 107s now. Anyway shameless plug the 105s are up for sale if anyone wants a pair of few hours old size 5 o/w for cheap tags in hand

who knows of someone stocking one wash 710 38s in 32 inseam and maybe 33 inseam?

As far as I know, they only make one inseam length. 

Here is the inseam length for the 107 from size 1 to 5

29", 30", 30.75", 33", 33" 

As mentioned previously orSlow states that you can expect some pairs to vary slightly by up to half an inch.

Only half an inch? I dunno, I've seen up to 34" as here

https://www.thebureaubelfast.com/shop/9983/2-year-wash-107-slim

and as short as 32.5" here

https://www.alphashadows.com/inventory/orslow-107-slim-fit-denim-2-year-wash

I get that there's variances in the length, sure, but 1.5" seems like a lot. Oh well I think I'll just go for the ones from alphashadows, as they have the shortest inseam I can find and I'm after a sort of hayashi look

@peter1 They're definitely not cheap. And yeah I'm sure I could find a similar wash, I'd just never seen that type of oxidation on the rivets before so wanted to share. I guess I just like rivets. But no you're totally right, ebaying some 501s would be the way to go if I'm after something like that wash and that's it.

I dunno, I just thought the rivet coloring was cool/unusual. 

Anyway, I'd be happy to find a short inseam pair of 107 two years. I see inseams ranging from 32.5" - 34" but nothing shorter for a size 5. Does anyone know if they've stopped doing the short inseam on these, or was 32.5 as short as they ever were? 

Canoe club has a new sort of wash in the 107 

https://shopcanoeclub.com/collections/orslow/products/orslow-ivy-fit-denim-107-2-year-wash

Theyre calling it a two year wash but it's not the typical two year. Way more washed out and no lap whiskers like the typical two year. It's also got some very cool oxidation going on with the rivets, looks like gasoline in water or something. Sadly they are not selvage but I don't care. I'm hoping they can get a 5 in

Apparently there is a 'used' version of the two year 107. Looks more faded out in the lap area and the inseam is about five inches shorter. Also heavy oxidation on the hardware. 

I got a pair of 5s from End so we'll see how they look in a few days

Tried the 105's in the one wash and two year at canoe club the other day. They were tabless and look so much cleaner imo. Not the most flattering fit on me however, so I'm going to hold out for the 107s and see if they do the trick.

We're getting a good number of their flannels this winter, just got the black/navy houndstooth and getting 5 more in about 2 weeks. Not seeing a black/green one from my notes though.

Kiya, I'm guessing all the work shirt flannels (non pearl flannels) have the cutaway collar this year. For some reason I can't get behind the look. Nice to see xxl's available in any case. 

Nice, no tab is better than where they chose to put it imo. Should look cleaner.

Anyone have experience with the loop wheeled hoodies. How are they? 

How are people sizing the one wash 900s? I've read the banner denim stretches so I'm wondering if I should size down or go tts.

Didn't have a chance to call them today, Berkeley Supply, but their site doesn't mention anything about hemming. Looks like Indigo Proof it is then.

Well I'm in Colorado. I'm looking to send them in somewhere in the states, either coast I'm guessing, as I'm skeptical there's anybody in my neck of the woods who does this sort of thing properly.

Who do you trust stateside then?

What's the consensus on where to send denim to be chain stitched? Is it advised to go with a Union Special machine for a good amount of roping or are there other ways?

Thanks!

I was told by WH that 'OR' means raw, don't ask me why. 

I like roman pros, they were always the anti new era cap to me, but can't get behind the leather sweatband. What team @cheapmuthafukr? 

So I came across another listing that had this
 Wading about 28 cm (※ Thigh width of 10 cm inseam part) 

Lol, sounds like 10 cm down from the crotch, across the leg. In which case these should work out, stoked.
