    But they are wrong about saying the denim is 15.5 oz as it is 15 oz.

    Here are some 1101XX EX 25th anniversary revival jeans alongside my 1108XXs which I have been wearing evenings and weekends for 27 months.

    This is what Fullcount Denim blog said about the 1101XX EXs in October 2017. I'm not sure what zara is but assume Serubitchi means selvedge.

    Anniversary.

    October 5, 2017

    The Tokyo store where the arrival is continued. 
    We introduced 25th anniversary items as well. 1101XXEX 1101XX_25TH_REVIVAL ¥ 26,784 This is the first full denim original reprint of 1101XX. As it is the design, it is an anniversary item which adopted technology which could not be done at that time, such as strengthening the feeling of zara from the time at the fabric . The patch used Deer Skin which reprinted the design at the time. Pleasurable needle stick buckle on buckle back. The hip pocket design also reproduces the stitch of the time. Bare rivets are also good feeling. The color of Serubitchi is red, you can see the strength of the zara feeling when you up the fabric.

    Here we go again! Not convinced by the arcs but couldn't resist ordering 2 rigid pairs (size 30 and 31) while you can still get them.

    My 1101 XX EXs have now arrived safe and sound from Joe's. Beautiful 15 oz raw denim. Stockists only seem to have 1 pair for each size where they haven't already sold out. I'll post some better pics when there is good light.

    did you measure the inside leg of the 37 before they were washed? I'm thinking the 34 leg may be too short post soak after reading this

    I couldn't find any L36s in the 1937s anywhere so I am giving them a miss. Someone said previously that they're not being made to save Cone denim. Waiting for my raw FC 1101 XX EXs 25th revival to pass through customs instead though they lack a crotch rivet.

    Did anybody get the 1101 25th anniversary XX EX jeans. I have only seen posts on the 1108 EX. Having decided against them, wearing my 1933 LVCs has kindled an interest in 1101 XX EXs given the rear rivets and cinch and the fact that the 1101 fit is better for me than the 1108. I would like to see how that denim has evolved.

    I bet no one dared say that to the Duke in 1939. He wears ‘em like Brooke Shields wore Calvin Kleins.  :rolleyes:

    I read these were 1937 Levi brand but I can’t see an arcuate?

    I can see exposed rivets on the back pocket which would only be 1937s if the denim covering them had worn away - The Rivet's Still There.

    I agree with this, however, maybe he just wants to become known by his new name...

    I really think that the Moderator should disallow posts like this and the others which are off topic and about people they don't know and have never met and not about denim and how it looks. It is fair enough to comment on whether you like or don't like a particular denim look but personal comments are hurtful and are unacceptable in my opinion. They would not be tolerated in school or  in the workplace where they would be called bullying.

    @Dry  I think it's safe to say that you shouldn't soak those... they may be un-wearable after.

    Well after 3 40C washes, I'm pleased to report that these 1933s have turned into a comfortable and soft pair of snug jeans, which is how I like them and the L36 is well down on my shoes unlike the first editions of 1933s when they were half way up my ankle! I just wish they had done W31 or W32 L36 in the 1st editions of these. I have received no adverse comments or criticisms and the thighs are fine. I don't wear them with a belt.

    I might be able to take your dick outline and Crocs in separate posts...but all together?? I am dyin' here! 

    That said, if you want tight jeans – and I certainly have a few myself – you've got 'em. Nothing wrong with that, if that's what you're after. But you are deluded if you think that is a "regular" fit, or ever will be.

    @428CJ Thanks and it is good to know that you also like tight jeans. As I said in my 24th August post 'Not how they are intended to be worn, but so what?' I deliberately sized down and didn't  expect a regular fit. The creases should make for nice whiskers and the tight thighs for good fades - a characteristic generally lacking from 1933s regularly worn. I would be surprised if nobody ever wore them like that in 1933, particularly growing youths, though contemporary pics may prove me wrong!

    @Dry They look like they are hardly comfortable at all. I would sell and upsize for a better fit. 

    @kicks79 it's OK. They are well comfortable. I tucked in my (lovely thick 14 oz SDA) shirt to show the high rise of the 1933 model and suspender buttons. Also I had my arms bent over and was stretching out to take the selfie. These are size 31 and I bought a size 32 at the same time 'while stocks lasts', though if Kaihara replicate the original denim in a couple of years' time, it may be irresistible!
