  1. Copper rivets instead of zinc also strays from the original. But hell, there's so many brands going all in on the repro game I think it's still alright when they change a few subtle details to make, what they feel, is a better pair of jeans. 

    Looking forward to seeing how these turn out for you mate! 

     

    How can you tell what material they're made from?

  2. They shrink almost a whole size. I think the Warehouse web shop lists amounts it will shrink in all directions after a wash. They shrink a little bit more if you tumble dry them.

     

    Thanks. Saw the measurements and I just wanted to see if it was accurate. It really does seem like it would run small with shrinkage with the measurements posted

  3. I think Blue in Green has the export model which has denim pocket bags. No red tab also. Not sure what other differences there are. Inseam might be slightly longer?

  4. Funny. I actually thought about getting the banner denim in a wider cut and try to cut down on the washes to about once a month instead. Maybe not for a while though, still wanna try out other brands.

     

    I'll probably see if the 1101 is a good fit, and I'll probably look into the WWII models also. Or maybe they'll put something cool out in the banner denim for their 25th anniversary.

  5. THise look great !!

    My two cents and depending on your view I'd do more wear and less wash for the near future.

     

    Thanks. Personally I can't really do less washes because it tends to get really hot around here and I can't stand sweaty jeans. I think they look pretty decent anyway so I'll probably stick with my normal routine.

  6. Yeah I don't think anybody who is hating on the brand thinks that these are complete pieces of shit. I'm sure the jeans are better than most of the other shit brands out there. The marketing is just annoying so we hate them for that. I don't care if someone would give me a pair for free, that doesn't change how it's been marketed.

  7. Nobody here is falling for anything. It doesn't matter how much we're thinking about the brand because nobody who complained about the brand is actually going to buy it. The whole point of their marketing is not to target people who like things that are closer to the repro side. 

  8. Really want it also but I'd probably want to try it on first before buying it. I don't know if the sleeves would be too long or the body would be too long in my size.

     

    Volvo I don't think it's the same denim. This uses the banner denim while i think Bradl's is the Memphis cotton
