    It looks like you found a pair already. I was recently looking for something similar, since all my sweat pants are tapered and I find them too slim. So I had a look. This came up. Bathing Ape- https://brandavenue.rakuten.co.jp/item/QF9311/ https://brandavenue.rakuten.co.jp/item/QD9262/ A cheaper option. Criminal heavy weight. The leg openings are small at 16cm, but the overall fit is very wide and voluminous: https://item.rakuten.co.jp/criminal/oglp-012/ The same in a lighter fabric: https://item.rakuten.co.jp/criminal/oglp001/ Champion/XL Reverse Weave: https://item.rakuten.co.jp/kalulu/101254031019/ Licot: https://item.rakuten.co.jp/licot/bqvqxmwxlv4eaqbijdzjg2xxs4-ric/ https://item.rakuten.co.jp/licot/y6mfpd5lwu462n3vrqtwwn5lqu-ric/ https://item.rakuten.co.jp/licot/flgxt2aifxtg5hm52v5mgz6rj4-ric/ SHIPS half cotton half wool: https://brandavenue.rakuten.co.jp/item/PT1843/ Made in Japan, all cotton: Harvesty https://item.rakuten.co.jp/more-net/a12524m/?iasid=07rpp_10095___3r-mj4o3q25-49-9f4b9180-a2b1-472a-836a-16ca3be237cf Made by Hand (brand name): https://item.rakuten.co.jp/versteck/2031/?variantId=r-sku00000004

    Recently in ScytheTV they talked about the reissue of the S506XX 44-45 jacket. They also discussed the new fabric, saying, that it not that much different from the previous one, just bluer and very rough. One wouldn't see the difference wearing the jeans with the previous one and the new jacket. The Hooper guy is wearing a nicely worn S506 showing the fading. From 06:00 on they are showing the different fits. The guy from Scythe is wearing both size 40 and 48 with both looking good on him.

    For the chambray shirts Orslow has a "vintage fit", which is also quite voluminous.

    @Double 0 Soul had recently mentioned Old Joe. Here are the Engineer Boots (Loopers). Some more info on this page. They're from 2013. Rocky Mountain Featherbed vest, SDA kakishibu shirt

    As mentioned in the FW's thread in December 2023 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of BerberJin LVC had issued a 1942 model together with BerberJin based on a pair owned by Mr. Yutaka Fujihara. Made from dead stock Cone Mills White Oak denim at Levi's "Eureka Innovation Lab" in San Francisco. Limited to 80 pairs. There is still a golden size (W34 L32) pair available here (not for resellers).

    All this talk about 1942 and 1941 models. I didn't remember this. But in December 2023 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of BerberJin LVC had issued a 1942 model together with BerberJin based on a pair owned by Mr. Yutaka Fujihara. Made from dead stock Cone Mills White Oak denim at Levi's "Eureka Innovation Lab" in San Francisco. Limited to 80 pairs. It has probably been mentioned somewhere on SUFU before. I'll post some more pics in the 36-42 model threat.

    You don't need to carry a leather wallet.

    A guy I know from uni has everything in his palm, literally, a chip- on it he has got his credit card infos, house key and more. Each to their own, I guess.

    Warehouse

    indigoeagle replied to Medine's topic in superdenim

    Did you get them? ScytheTV with Hooper were recently talking about that pair. Interestingly they said- and I don't know, that it has been written anywhere/strangely not in the WH product description- the denim is not the same as that of the other WWII models. I guess they keep some obscure details for their retailers. Anyway- while the WH denim is normally made by a mill in Okayama, this one denim is made by Kurabo. Apparently it looks more smooth/even at first but will develop character/become rougher with washing/shrinking. So that besides the different flannel pattern is probably the largest difference to the DuckDigger S1003XX.

    Duke's content is a real treasure trove. Their first WWII model (I think 1943?) also was of their standard denim. Well, the 40,000 yen then- at least in EUR- was probably more then than say 60,000 are now. My early 30s model by them bought in 2013 was JPY 31,500, which was around EUR 315. The 46/47 is now JPY 53,900, which is now ca. EUR 300. So basically the same. It might be different in GBP unfortunately 😕

    The in between the years era one?
  12. indigoeagle
    The Trailblazer really is something. And the current/previous FW WWII denim fades nicely, too. You must have been wearing them quite a lot. I find it to fade very slowly.
  13. indigoeagle
    I hadn't heard of it either. Some very nice items. It seems, that a lot is made in France.
  14. indigoeagle
    Any news on the denim fabric they will use for those enticing models?
  15. indigoeagle
    What's that "front zipper"?
  16. indigoeagle
    Interesting. Genco says this (I used google translate): "At the time, there were no restrictions on jackets, and shirts and blouses were also eligible for removal. However, since the first model at the time was a "pleated blouse," the flaps were removed.". and: "As for the silhouette, the length has been slightly lengthened without compromising the vintage feel, creating a well-balanced silhouette." The Warehouse 1941 model is a bit longer also, for the size 46 64cm. Also the sleeves shoulder to cuff 64.5cm, compared with say the WH 1936 model in 48 back length: 60.5cm and sleeves 61cm. By the way FW had issued a 1943 model with pocket flap, but only four buttons before, around March 2019. So every year since 1941 is accounted for now. 1940, 1948 and 1949 can still be used.

    Nice combos. And your FW 506XX is fading nicely. Looks great with that fisherman knit.
  18. indigoeagle
    Perhaps something special about the cinch? But the lily one came in 1946, was it? Perhaps @Double 0 Soul was involved
  19. indigoeagle
    Probably not much apart from the updated denim, no?
  20. indigoeagle
    The S506XX 1944-45 model has been reissued. Already in the "updated" original WWII denim, which according to the text by Genco is basically the same, also with the vertical fading, but through a reformulation of the warp it will be rougher. Also the length has been extended a bit. For size 46 it's 63cm vs. the 60cm for the 46/47 model. In the text it says, that for denim jackets the pocket flap was taken away in 1944. He also says, that in March the S601XX 1944-45 model will be issued, in the new WWII denim. So that should be the one with the OD HBT pocket bags. I think @beautiful_FrEaK recently got this model.

    Good idea. It would be fun to compare this 41 pair with the XXC 1937 and the denim with the 1945 later half one which I got half a year ago or so. But I'm sure the buckle and the suspender buttons will come quite a bit pricey. So, I'll probably get the jacket. And wait for one of the other WWII models with the new denim. A 1946 one would indeed be cool.
  22. indigoeagle
    I'm interested. But also would like to see the measurements first and not sure about the suspender buttons (that could be show stopper). Does anyone know, when they come? I think around March
  23. indigoeagle
    In the Japanese text by FW on the 1941 jeans and jacket it says, that after eight years of using the original War Denim they have reworked it. Their original War Denim was with a darker indigo, slower to fade and a bit heavier than the denim fabric of the time before the war. If I understood it correctly, they write, that they wanted the vertical falling to be less pronounced and to that end they reworked the warp. The warp's core has nep woven in and consists of US cotton. On the suspender buttons it just said that they prepared the pair with the buttons attached, so they probably come like that, as @vlad_III had seen at DR.

    The Orslow one is great, I think. A similar one is that from Beams plus.

    Colimbo's Observer Parka is also worth checking out.
