I think, there a lots of videos, articles and discussions on luxury goods, that state that they were "made in Italy" or "Swiss made". Apparently sometimes whole suits were made abroad except for the buttons, which were then finished in Italy and that was still enough to call them "made in Italy". But what if the act of attaching the buttons in Italy is more expensive than sewing the suit somewhere else, so that part would be more than 50% of the cost of manufacturing?

In that discussion anothers case gets alluded to. Amazing in many ways. https://www.bostonmagazine.com/news/2021/07/13/richard-hajjar-bianca-de-la-garza-alden/

Yes, interesting fact. They're writing, that 9oz in the old linear yard standard equals 11.6oz in loomstate and 12.75oz once sanforized. So the 10oz that is on the Levi's labels would translate to 12.9oz and 14.17oz resp..

Great boots

Actually I have the 1101 in XX and the 0105 in the 13.7oz. The back rise isn't as high with the 1101 and the leg isn't as wide. But it's still a pretty relaxed fit. It's a bit similar to the Denime Lot220A, but the front rise is a bit lower and the leg a bit wider.

The denim of the gardener is really dark. The SC45's denim is quite dark already, but in the direct comparison the Gardener is even darker. Or is it more due to the fading or light?

I've also made that experience. I got both the 0501 and the 1101 in 34. Comfy fit with both. Having heard that the Smooth ones fit large I got the 0501 in 33. But somehow they were different. So I returned them and got the 1101 in 33 instead and am happy with them.

I understand.

Any hints on what will be released in terms of jeans and denim jackets?

No, sure. Good idea. I had been thinking that myself a few times. When I had made the thread, I didn't know about that.

Yes, the Ueki one is perfect. It also depends on which side you cover. In the pic above you can see the left side. But don't the tabs something roll up, so that the right part is shown? Perhaps then it's closer to the original template.

Isn't this year Warehouse's 30th anniversary? Has anyone heard about any releases?

Cover it halfways and have a look what it looks like- kind of.

Yes, it works really well. I had read, that some, I think, sociologists had postulated, that a person's name is a not insignificant factor in a person's life, for example which career they're following and so on. I was travelling and talked to a fellow guest in a guest house about this. I asked him for his first name, it was Attila or Hannibal. And it turned out, that he was a history professor. So, in way, it seems that providence decided that Mr Ueki would go into the repro business. Not many names work so well on that tab. For many years I couldn't understand, why Warhouses tab says "GENUS".

Two years ago or so, the 501XX book was already sold out everywhere, but the jacket book was still available. I just had a quick look and it also now seems to be sold out everywhere. Hopefully they'll do a rerelease at BerBerJin or so. https://www.hanmoto.com/bd/isbn/9784846500283 Someone is asking JPY 20,000: https://item.fril.jp/27fae705bc77fcc1b56b35c9ac459603
