  1. Thank you @Hopethisoneisnttaken How tall are you? Was the inseam of your pair then also stated as 75cm? I got away with 34 in the 50s and got the S40s in 36. So 34 might be way to go here, considering that they're a quite wide cut. That should still be comfy. Or better 36?
  2. There was some mixup. Got a pair of new rigid/non wash Warehouse 900XX in W36/32. Selling for EUR 179+ shipping. If interested, please get in touch quickly. Otherwise they'll get sent back.
  3. The slanted coin pocket is cool. Is that shrink wrapped? Best storage option?
  4. Overalls- What are the differences between "Cat of the Boss" and "Wrecking Crew" overalls? They look quite similar vs. for example the Tabby or the Handyman. If you normally wear a 36 how would you size in Cat and Wrecking? Also the current Wrecking Crew seems quite short with 75cm inseam. Or is that plenty due to the overall construction with a high rise? The Wrecking Crew are currently available. Not sure, if the Cat of the Boss will be made again. Another question- has TCB done any overalls in duck? I've only seen the Handyman in Hickory Stripe.
  5. How would you compare the fit/cut? And thickness, texture of the denim?
  6. @Broark They look very comfy and well made. No heel slippage?
  7. I normally wear a 34 in most, 36 in Resolute. The 47 is generally smaller fitting. So for me 36 would be recommended, thus for you I'd say 34.You might get away with a 32, but it could be tight. Not sure. edit: I just saw, that there is also a W33 availble. That might your best option. Some retailers have the 47 in non/wash. I didn't find them very stretchy. But of course the o/w will stretch quite a bit in waist.
  8. I think you want. a 36, no? Anyway Stlll many sizes. https://item.rakuten.co.jp/earthmarket/sc49007
  9. It could be these: https://masuya1997.com/item/warehouse-1001xx-1000xx-19471model/ Then it would be DSB. However, the colour of the arcuates seems to differ. The ones at cultizm look orange while the other look lemon. Or it just looks like that on the pic. But even if they're different, I think, the "1000XX" in small letter above "Lot 1001XX" indicates DSB, I think.
  10. How would you guys compare the DSB denim with the Memphis cotton of the 800XX and 1001XX (Heavy Ounce)?
  11. Thanks Pics are not showing for me though.
  12. I wear 34 in most and also have the 0105 in 34. Fits very comfy.
  13. For the 800XX sizing up is recommended, but how much, if you normally wear a 34, just to 36 or even 38? I'm asking because the measurements are very small for the waist: second sunrise for the one wash: 36-42cm 38-44cm selfedge for the rinsed one: 36- 81.25cm. 38- 82.5cm hinoya also o/w: 36- 84cm 38-88cm Most of my jeans measure 90cm (flat measured x2)- so the 36 would probably stretch to that , the 38 would be more comfortable. It just seems a lot.
  14. Any idea, how the Lot 220A (previous XX, right?) would compare to the upcoming 47 and 54 models?
  15. I think, the confustion stems from the following. One assumes, that 66 model refers to Levis 501XX made in the year 1966 as a blue print. Howeve it seems, that the definition is that the 501s produced from 1973 to 1980 are referred to as “66”. The name comes from the fact that “© 1966” was printed on the flasher. The 66 model is again subdivided into first half and second half models. Same same, but different is the Big E- model. This refers to the 501s produced from the late 1960s to 1973. After the Big E the red tab showed “LeVI’S”. Also the lot number was changed from “501XX” to “501”. According to this Japanese Denim somelier "mtk0058" among others the v stitch at the top button was used until 1969 and the parallel stitch from 1969/1970 onwards. There were also changes in the arcuate stitch colours and a switch from from back pocket hidden rivets to bartacking. So, I guess, when a 66 model is offered it can be one with Big E, first half 66 and second half 66 characteristics. And the cuts were probably also changing over the years. Clearest would probably be the following three models: 1. Big E with parallel stitches 1969-1973 2. 66 first half model and 3. 66 second half model There are probably other theories about this. But this is the info I had found on the insta of mtk0058 and in this article.
