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

I had remembered that a SCSC jacket had the size tag. But then I had a quick look at the Sugarcane site and saw the 43 and 45 ones, which - like you said- don't have it. It's funny- it's a little detail, but somehow to me quite enjoyable. In the Vintage Denim Jacket book there are two mid 30s jackets (Still with the small buttons, National Recovery Act versions) and they have size tag below the leather patch (vs. on the top for the later 506s).

Has anyone visited this town? Sounds good https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14940349/Is-Britains-SMUGGEST-high-street-Locals-market-town-boast-wishes-shops-like-theirs-claim-creative-capital-England.html

Selvedge cloth at the rivet on the inside of the chest pocket. I've only seen this on Freewheelers' 506 and 507. Is this FWs taking artistic licence with this little detail or are they the only ones to have bothered to replicate? The original Levi's jackets have the size tag above the leather patch and I have also only seen that on FW's jackets.

Very interesting. That would answer the question, if I understood it correctly. My TLDR: Before the fabric was categorized by the weight of one piece with the dimensions of 28x36 inches. Then in 1955 this was changed to a larger fabric of 36x36". Of course, a larger fabric is heavier. And the increase is by 8", which is nearly 30%. So 10 ounce x 1.3= 13 ounce.

Besides working with Jelado he has also made a 506 type 1 jacket and 1937 jeans for Cushman both with the Solide buckle/cinch. And I think he also made the pocket t-shirts for Cushman.

Terrific combo and cool t-shirt. I don't remember this one. Do you know, which season it's from?

wow- interesting detail. I didn't know about this.

By the way here are some pics of the Dapper's LOT1272 One Piece Of Rock S406XXX M-47 (BDa1243). Barnstormers gives these measurements for the N/W. サイズ 38 肩幅44cm 身幅51cm 着丈58cm 袖丈60cm 40 肩幅46cm 身幅54cm 着丈59cm 袖丈61cm

Ah, yes Thanks Bit of a deja vu. I think, I had it mixed up before and you had explained it. Which jeans did you have besides the 22501XX?

This pair seems to get reissued once in a while. I think there was also a Dappers x CSF 1946 506 jacket. But I haven't seen that get issued again. Any deets on that jacket? Especially compared to CSF's version. Possibly different sizing here as well?

From my experience FOB are not aiming to produce exact repros, but they are inspired by it. And they offer quite a good quality/price ratio.

I read recently about a German entertainer/TV&radio guy. He had passed away in his 80s. He had his own shows on TV and radio for decades and was quite popular and well liked. Apparently in the 80s or so he had a tough time taking drugs and frequenting brothes and also debt. Despite making good money apparently he was in debt for around DM 700,000 (in today's money probably EUR 1m) or so. Instead of filing for personal bankruptcy and having the debt extinguished after five years or so (in which time you only receive the bare minimum to live from your income) he paid back everything over many years once he got sober again. Quite remarkable, especially compared to today with scams and fraud in many places.

Where to kop t-shirts with these slogans?

Very nice @Broark I especially like the black herringbone Grunts pants, the Great Lakes sweat shirt (Hoosier exclusive?) and the Peace Valley shirt (indigo, right?).

They have quite a big number of reactivated/licensed brands: https://marquemaker.com/brand.html

Japan is a huge domestic market. And if something is popular, a large percentage will want that. From my experience that percentage is much larger than in other countries.

It's understandable, that one wants to protect one's brands and original designs. But wasn't he arguing, that you couldn't use pictures of vintage jackets, that he had acquired, even when the pictures were take before he had bought the jackets? Normally the photographer is the rights holder. If I own say a VW Beetle and have some pics of it and then sell the Beetle, I don't think that the current owner of the Beetle could prohibit me from using the pics, even if that includes posting them in my biography on the internet and in print. And the agreement, that if you buy a product- which you then own- you cannot sell it on, wouldn't fly in Europe at least, I think. We now have a similar situation though with software in cars. A customer buys a car with special feature software. When he sells his car in some (many, few- not sure) cases, he cannot transfer the special feature to the new owner. This might be because the software is never owned, but only licensed. And you cannot transfer the license. I saw a documentary recently about farmer and their expensive tractors, where they had such a situation.

Is Payday a brand run by Junky Classics? It could be its own company, no? Like Big Mike or Headlight (at Toyo). Very nice reduced design of the WW2 model.
