A nice jacket in a small size, in case one of you is interested: https://www.vinted.de/herren/kleidung/oberbekleidung/jacken/jeansjacken/1697476170-vintage-denime-jeans-type-1-jacke-s

Quick fun story. Went to get an MRI a few days ago and was told to take off all metal, but I could keep my pants on (TCB 50s). When I was put into the machine, the fly of the pants visibly went up. The technician pulled me out and was like, are your pants magnetic? I didn't know what to say, so I just said, They're old-fashioned jeans. He shrugged and was like, well as long as the buttons don't fly off, you're fine. Later, when he pulled me out of the machine, he said he was talking to the other technician and in 10 years of doing MRIs, they'd never seen pants that reacted to the machine before. All of which leads me to conclude that not enough denim heads are going to get their heads checked.

Quick question. Recently got a pair of 1001xx (in the correct size) and I love them and noticed a pair of 1001 for sale here locally. I assume the difference has to do with the denim, but what is the difference exactly?

Sorry about that. The measurements were: WAIST 43.5 FRONT RISE 30 BACK RISE 40.5 THIGH 31 HEM 22.5 INSEAM 82.5

This pair of one wash Lot 1001xx jeans was purchased about a month ago, here in Germany, worn around the house for less than an hour, and that's it. Basically brand new - just a tad too big for me. Open to trade within Europe. Price is $175. Measured using BiG method. INSEAM 82.5

From crotch to outseam, but as you can see in the photo, the fabric is folded over weird. Would be happy to measure from inseam to outseam, if you want.

Hey. A few months back I posted in the Roy thread about having some jeans for sale. At the time, I was worried they smell too much like my mom's cigarettes. Luckily, this isn't the case. They just smell like they've been stored in a pile of denim for 3 years. In the US for the next week and would be glad to ship them promptly. Open to trade offers for Warehouse, Yofukuten, Resolute, or cone era LVC in my size (roughly 32 in WH). As for how to price these, I have no idea... I put them on Grailed for a ridiculous price - and if someone wants to pay that, I won't stop them. For you guys, any reasonable offer will work. Roy RN01? Size 30 Original seller said he bought them from Self Edge in 2008 and hemmed to 30 inch inseam. Wear is what you see in pics - a little fading on the back pocket, creases behind the knees. These still feel pretty crispy. Measurements: Waist - 15.5" FR - 9" BR - 13.5" Thigh - 11" Inseam - 30" LO - 7"

Hey guys. Clearing out a few pairs that don't fit after covid. Jeans are located in Berlin, all prices are flexible, and include shipping within Europe. Just make me an offer. And as always, feel free to ask for measurements. Since these jeans are pretty well known models, I figured it's okay to post them without measurements for the time being. Also, trades are accepted! Looking for Resolute, Warehouse, or LVC 55/66 in size 32 or maybe 33. Denim 66, Orizzonti era, size 31, asking 150€ LVC 1947, tagged 32x36, last of the Cone era (I believe), asking 100€ Warehouse 900, tagged 31x32, asking 75€

If it weren't for those rivets, I wouldn't pay $300 for the jeans...

Something I've been wondering for years: How do people repair the pocket using a sewing machine? I repair all my jeans myself, but still haven't figured out this trick.

Head's up. I spotted what I think is a deadstock vintage Levi's Type 3 for a good price. As typical with Markt, it's mislabeled. https://www.marrkt.com/collections/new-arrivals/products/lot-705-type-ii-denim-jacket I don't need it, but one of you should check it out.

How is the sizing on these? I've been wanting to get a pair, but have a hard time finding them in Europe. Do you have any suggestions?

@cause4pause Nope, sorry. No measurements. But I'll be back in NY in October and can measure them then.

Here's a link to the Grailed listing: https://www.grailed.com/listings/4860923-roy-denim-slim-tapered-jeans Don't have any recent photos as the jeans are across the sea, but I'm sure they look exactly the same. I maybe wore them once (ass too fat).

Yeah, it's an unfortunate story with those jeans. I stashed them at my parents' house in NY before I moved to Berlin, thinking I'd bring them over at some point. That never happened. Then my mother, who smokes, took over my old room as her new TV den/office. The jeans are in the closet and, as far as I know, the closet door is closed. But like @julian-wolf said, cigs are insidious and most likely have sneaked in. And yeah, @UkeNo, I would wash them if I tried to sell them – I get that no one wants to receive smoked-out jeans. But at the same time, those jeans are rare enough that perhaps someone out there would be willing to deal with the smell – or maybe a smoker wants to buy them. As for drainage issues, I don't know if that has to do more with England (the weather, I imagine, leaves the ground like a damp sponge), but don't all the best bars reek of piss?
