  1. Same problem w/ the 101b's, I'm in between sizes & the fact their sanfordized & probably won't stretch back out has made me hesitant to buy. Not to mention, I just started to wear my Billikenman. Can't wait to see how they fit after the soaks.

  2. My apologies, I know this should be on the small ? thread but I never can get an answer.

    Q: Does anyone know if the WH 101b's or Z's stretch after the initial soak?

    Info, I'm a 37" , I usually buy 38 in this case the 101b's size 34+37 w/ a 1" shrink & the 36=39 w/ a 1" shrink according to BIG which are spot on in my experience. I

    If you have any info I'd appreciate it.

    Also, is their a vast difference between WH & Lee Archives? Thanks again.

  3. ^ I suggest you compare sizes & go to The Wild One. I believe the link is on the first page. They (The WIld One) list theirs as one wash

    & Speedway has them in the Raw state. Very accurate & gives you an idea what you start w/ & end w/. I have the vtg indigo from

    Speedway, after 1 hot soak & 1 hot wash, I haven't experienced any stretching but then again, I've only worn it a handful of times.

    Hope this helps.

  4. Looking for Dayton roughout. I believe they are the "service boot" w/ a toe cap & Christy sole

    not the popular W&H model. If you know of someone or some place offering them up for under

    retail or just a well loved pair. PM me.

    Also interested in the Viberg service boot Christy sole & or the Alden context boot.

    I'm a 8.5 in RW's, if this helps, although I might fit into a 9 but prefer the 8.5 in RW's. Thanks.

  5. No particular order:

    Denime XX - Shins are 10 years old or so & have great contrast & color Orizzonti currently wearing them in but finally broken in .

    Billikenman 101- Really nice slub texture, no real wear yet.

    SC45 lee repro of 101 cowboy - were my favorite, no longer fit & (Shameless plug) on E-bay.

    vintage 60 & 70 Levi's 6 on button- Great when broken in, worn around the house as pajamas.

    Vintage Lee Jelt- love these although I passed them on to my nephew.

  6. Not hate but recognition for his years of fear mongering & lies which he has spread through the airwaves & no he's by far the worst person I know of due to his ability to spread his brand of poison to benighted individuals & produce something worst than ignorance but hate which pervades from all aspects of his followers.

    So once I found out he was associated w/ this brand, I'll cont. to opt for the $300 dollar denim knowing it will not go to produce his show or promote his brand whether it be his show or denim line. And their is no need to to listen to or read from the "left wing" to know this person is vile just a form a logic which some seem to lack. Cheers.

  7. In regards to the Champion sweater, have they ever been made in the USA? I use to rock these religiously in the winters of Jersey. I've never had luck finding the same quality in NYC shops today, seems like the QC dropped off since then or I just have a nostalgic feeling for them.

    On another note If you guys ever watched the movie "Paid in Full", towards the end while at the ball court Cam the rapper, his character wears what appears to be a Champion in navy/black . That's a proper fit, I'm looking for. Since no screen cap was avail. Google: Paid in Full 2002 @ 1:25:45. Either way this is the fit I'm looking for, any suggestions would be appreciated.

  8. Looking for a SC1945 jeans in a 36 or 38. New or slightly used is fine. I have a slightly used pair in 34 if someones willing to trade. SC45 are left weave, center rayon patch, green selvedge,crotch rivet, & a broken lazy "s" pattern on the back pockets. If anyone can source or has these please contact me.
