@FAB FOUR 1946? How is the fit, especially in the top block? I was wondering how the back rise works out. Fit pics would be good if you get chance.

@Broark top shirt, looks great!

^ lovely picture postcard back yard @lance

^ top find!

Yeah it’s on the steep side... but they do look good... seems like no-one of Sufu has a pair to comment on...

^ ah yes so it does... pretty fine looking material underneath them collars though eh...

Anyone rocking the Brycelands 133 jeans? Interested in hearing about fit, how they wear in etc and any fit pics... cheers...

^ yeah it's the same fella. What a business model. Also benefiting from operational cost efficiencies.

Ha yes... previous post edited with parentheses for historical accuracy!!!

@Maynard Friedman yeah... made a(n embarrassing) u-turn!!! Took me a little getting used to

Lot 162 On and off gentle wear over the past 6 months... in rotation with others evenings and weekends Not much going on yet Tho the popping blueness on the back belt loop promises much

Thirded... lovely shades and serious leg twist!

Measurements are as follows on the type 1 as promised... apologies bit tardy in getting them through... Size 46 Raw - Post 30C wash in cm Shoulders 52 - 50 Chest 62 - 57.5 Length 65 - 60 Sleeve 67.5 - 60 Opening 57 - 52.5 Size 44 (turned out too small for me) Shoulders 51 - 49 Chest 59 - 56.5 Length 65 - 59.25 Sleeve 63 - 57 (yes 57, not uncommonly short in type 1s of the period I understand) Plus Konaka's official chart for comparison Significant shrinkage and variables to navigate if you're planning one - good luck! Not sure if my 46 will shrink much more if I wash on 40C - anyone tried?

A result at that price!

Did you unpick the cinch? If so, looks neatly done.

Ha yes mate. This working week malarky is obstructive enough before we even get onto non denim working weeks!!

For comparison, I have an At Last Lee ‘44 repro size 44 which is short and boxy around the waist but with no cinch. The 42 was similarly boxy in the waist opening - minor difference, but tighter in shoulder and chest so didn’t look in proportion. Worth checking out Denimbro if not already done (Lee thread, page 1) Dr Heech (I think) is wearing one with cinch pulled tight but still relatively boxy. Looks really good imo. Depends on where you want it more fitted but if it’s the lower waist area, an hypothesis would be sizing down might only have small impact and result in more fitted top section and not look as good as your current fit. Also, as we know, the measurements are often up and down for the same size so who knows if that cm will be gained or maintained! Initially on mine, the boxy fit niggled me. After 6 months, now I just roll with it. I like the look and think that’s how it should be on my frame, so f-it. Your height makes the longer TCB body work for you. I reckon it’s looking good mate. A bit of a ramble and no hard conclusion but thought I’d share some thoughts!!! Keep us posted...

@Aries does tightening up the cinch help?

@Broark very nice! Interested to see wabash fit pics
