It looks really nice. But how often do you have to charge this one? And how long does charge take? Do you have cold climate? You're in Texas, no? So probably not ;D

The USMC tshirt seems a bit short for XL and XXL with 66cm (26") and 67cm (26.4") resp..

I think, it's the same guy. He made a USMC tee for them.

Wasn't the Rebuilt maker also manufacturing tshirts for Jelado? And I think the Cushman t shirts are also made using old sewing machines. Not sure, how that compares to the ones by Sure.

The new Timber Cruiser Coat. Pretty special. Original 13oz Yarn-Dyed Duck

Lovely shirts. The black chambray (?) is gone now. I have the slate grey one. Superb fabric and great cut. https://www.marrkt.com/collections/duke_mantee-freewheelers-and-co-collector-sale/products/union-special-trackwalker-shirt-1 The brown one is also very nice. https://www.marrkt.com/collections/duke_mantee-freewheelers-and-co-collector-sale/products/hobos-joint-delta-blues-shirt

A pity. Not easy to establish a brand. But they tried and managed ten years. The brand after that was SARVA. Made in Sweden. https://www.instagram.com/denimdemonmfg/p/BHhoBZnjL75/

No. I think, they had changed the brand name for some time or the concept. The Stockholm people should know. With Indigofera and Second Sunrise/Unionville, etc. I think it's a closely knit group.

One of a kind collection. And seems to sell quickly. For me also unfortunately a bit too small. The Union Special and Hobo's Joint shirts I find especially nice. Is this 95% wool? Looks more like cotton twill. https://www.marrkt.com/collections/duke_mantee-freewheelers-and-co-collector-sale/products/union-special-overalls-trackwalker-shirt And this: https://www.marrkt.com/collections/duke_mantee-freewheelers-and-co-collector-sale/products/union-special-trackwalker-shirts The olive drab, I know, is.

I still have a blanket lined type 2 and a pair of slim jeans in broken twill from Denim Demon. The brand was run by two brothers from the Same indigenous people of Scandinavia. So they had some references with colours and buttons to their heritage. I met the, I think, younger brother who did the designs. Very friendly. Looks like he knew about many intricate design details of vintage jeans. They had a cool pair of RW moc like boots in the style of their traditional boots.

Perhaps he means unsanforized. Perhaps you can ask here: https://pants-shop-avenue.com/item/SC42966/

Or on the paper tag/label.

Good to hear. Is that the Polo Snuff Suede? And how did you size? Say compared to Red Wing or Alden or Vans?

All nice, but, yes, especially the brown duck Uplander. You got the XL, right? Do you find it fits very big?

Very nice classical combination. Which Sanders do you wear? I think, there is a classical pair, which is very slim, from what I've heard. And there is another one, apparently for the Japanese market, that is sold in Europe exclusively by Son of a Stag, and that is a bit wider.

Very interesting. Good point with the models in different sizes. So in a way it makes sense, since Hayashi then started out to make a pair of jeans with vintage like denim. And Kurabo apparently was the first to do so for him. So with the banner denim being vintage denim fabric (but of the some specific period, 20/30?) one could argue, that it's the same objective. But I had also read, that Hayashi had not wanted to create a full replica but rather vintage like denim with a modern twist (though for Denime then probably not as much as with Resolute now). So since WH is mostly focussing on repros one might have expected them to basically copy the original Denime jeans models of the first generation. With Kurabo as the then denim producer still active, it should have been easy to reproduce the specific Denime denim of that time. Perhaps WH's idea here was to offer Denime jeans with a WH twist. For their WH fans. It would be cool, if WH could answer some questions like that. Do they have a kind of spokes person? Perhaps the Japanalogue guy can set up an interview. Not sure, if there has been one with WH.

I have a pair of Derbies from them in shell. Very solid shoes in my opinion.

After all all the repro brans base their jeans on the Levi's XX. Like Jelado with the Last Resort research cut up a pair of XX jeans and analyzed them to get as close to the original as possible. So Warehouse did that with the banner. Is the Denime banner denim the same "formula" just with the brown weft? Did Levi's also sometimes use a white and sometimes a brown weft? Or where does this brown weft come from? I think UES in their WWII also use brown weft (probably other brands do, too). So with the denim they all want to get as close to the original as possible. We have seen the pics from TCB. And with the cuts it is the same, no? Perhaps that is where there the bigger differences are.

Some more here. https://thedenimhound.com/2017/06/canton-overalls-the-birth-of-japanese-denim-and-the-art-of-imperfection/ " In 1963, under a partnership with Canton Textile Mills (USA) & Oishi Trading Company, Maruo Clothing Inc. made the first pair of domestically manufactured jeans." So Canton was like Cone a US denim mill. Oishi imported the fabric and Maruo (Big John) manufactured them and they were sold in Japan as Canton jeans. "In October of 1965 Canton dropped the world’s first one-wash jeans (This first ever run of one-washed jeans used several household washing machines to wash). *This info is disputed by the denim brand Edwin, who claims to have made the first pair in 1961. In 1967 Maruo Clothing created its own denim brand “Big John”. Big John began manufacturing jeans using Cone Mills denim starting in 1968. In the early 70’s, Big John would be the first to use Japanese denim (AFAIK from Kurabo Mills) in it’s production of jeans. Canton Textile Mills closed down in 1981. Oishi Trading Company had to produce Canton jeans using different workshops such as Takahata. Eventually, Oishi Trading Co. decided to stop producing jeans under the Canton brand in 1983. The son of the founder of Oishi Trading Co. went on to create Oni Denim."

Interesting. I found this just now: "ONI is owned by Masao Oishi, the son of the founder of Oishi Trading Company who were one of the original Canton partners who first made domestically manufactured jeans in Japan in the 1960’s under the Brand name “Canton”, using American Denim from Canton Mills." https://www.reddit.com/r/rawdenim/comments/8o7uhd/oni_day/

What were the cuts like? I've checked the measurements from the original line from their then site and their rises were pretty low. For a W34 for the 66 26.5cm, 66XX 25.5 and for the XX 27.5cm. Hayashi's 710 in a similar W36 has a 30cm front rise. The WH Lot 220 for W34 has a front rise of ca. 33cm. Were they always more modernin their cuts rather than repro? But they had all these models, like 30s with cinch back, WWII- perhaps repro with a modern twist?

For the 150th birthday of the 501 last year Levi's had a collab with Nigo. They issued made in Japan pants and a type 3.
