I saw those, they look really nice! On a side note, has anyone here tried their oxford shirts?

A little update on my LR01s, been wearing them most days since October and have given them three washes. They are starting to show some nice fades.

I think that was quite expected when they were bought up. Currently following if the same will happen to Our Legacy, their prices have gone up like crazy too.

Found a wild rhubarb patch while out on a walk today (wearing SC 66s). Became quite a harvest! Any suggestions on what to do with it all?

Bumping this thread because I want to see what denim shirts people are wearing!

@PrettyBoyTony That seems plausible, I believe LVC shrink around 8-10% just like old 501s did. And I can’t remember how stretchy the denim was. You can always go for the 1955 if you want a more straight cut, imo the back pocket placement is also a bit better on those.

@PrettyBoyTony Yes, modern LVC are pretty short in inseam, they should shrink to around 78 cm. Tried a pair of LVC 66s for a while but they were not for me so I returned them (bought them one wash so I wore them post shrink). My issues were that they were too short and the silhouette was too tapered, this can be fine if there is some stacking but the small leg opening was really exaggerated by the fact that I had no break over my shoes. If there was a L36 option I would give them another chance.

Perfect comfy fit. Where’s the hoodie from?

Spring is here so today I'm happily wearing Superstitch LR01 / Sugar Cane 53 tux.

Just why. To me Naked and Famous has always felt like a gimmicky brand, I’ve yet to see a pair from them that I’d actually wear.

@winteracr Looks really really good. Had the same issue with my Resolutes so did the same thing there, afterwards they became much more enjoyable to wear.

@PrettyBoyTony Yes I've had a pair for a few years now and they are probably my favorite jeans, much more roomy and overall a more balanced fit than the 710 imo. The denim is not very similar to Resolute, less fluffy when new and doesn't fade into the same sky-blue color as the 710. Has a bit of a green cast reminiscent of older Levi's from the early 60s and 50s. The Sugar Cane 66 feels like a repro of an older jean than the Resolute 710.

Just bought some 70s style bush pants second hand from a brand called High Rock Okayama, anyone know anything about this brand?

@PrettyBoyTony I think Resolute doesn't talk about where their cotton is from because they really don't know, and Hayashi has claimed in an interview that it's really hard to exactly know the source and to be honest he probably doesn't care all that much. I've tried some 66 cuts and Resolute are the slimmest so I think you'll be fine with most other options.

@Alec Leamas I bleached an old pair of 501s a few years ago. The fabric became a lot more soft, but not in a good way, they felt almost like sweatpants. Color became a 90s even sky blue. It’s a fun project to try on a pair you don’t care for anymore. Just remember to agitate them in the bleach solution sometimes or the bleaching will come out spotty/uneven.
