TCB 30s jacket, Whitesville tee, TCB 50s, FC belt
-
Nice @wmb. Which colors? I have the green polo and love it. You reminded me that I haven't worn it in a while. I should break it out.
-
Looking great @HGS. My 30's jacket arrived yesterday. Size 42 is perfect. I'll get some pics soon.
-
Just received the shipment notification for my 30's jacket 🤩
-
Awesome, that's very helpful. I went with a size 42, which by the numbers, looks like it'll be perfect. If you've washed it already, have you noticed any shrinkage?
-
🤣 excellent Edit: how do you find it fits compared to other TCB jackets, if you have any reference?
-
I have a 30's jacket on pre-order and seeing how yours are fading brings me a lot of joy @Sympathy-For-The-Denim

Generally their jeans are pretty TTS. I went for 32 in my 400T, and the waist measured about 31.5" when new/one-wash. From the looks of it, their WW2 jeans are cut pretty generously. I don't own any jackets from them, but the flannel and traveling shirt, both size 3, are pretty roomy as well compared to most other Japanese size L pieces I have from other brands.
-
Solid fit @gmn. 1101 is such an easy cut to get the sizing right, since they'll look good on most people across a few sizes.
-
The rise is definitely a bit shallower on my size 33 Kyoto vs my 710s in 33. I wouldn't put it into a low rise territory, but that's probably the biggest (and only) area where they different in terms of fit.
-
Mine are at the tailor getting hemmed. I plan on putting them back into my rotation once they are home.
-
Perfect slim fit. Definitely giving the Ivy vibe. Been in my 220s for the last couple of days, really rewarding denim once you start wearing it in.
-
Those are a super clean fit!

https://www.fromjapan.co.jp/japan/en/auction/yahoo/input/k147072084/ One-wash w/ tags Type-1 Orizzonti-era jacket. Not in the market for any more jackets, but wow.
-
Nice! My Kyotos are actually 33x32 and fit almost exactly the same as my Resolute 710 33x33 aside from a shorter front and back rise. Those appear to have less wear than my pair did when I bought them, so you'll have fun fading them.
-
They did ask me (politely) not to touch any of the jeans on the shelf until they could help me, so I think they possibly take their sales approach very seriously, lol.
-
Do you mean that they would have denied your purchase at the FC store? They seemed pretty enthusiastic about selling me stuff when I was there, although I only purchased a thermal top.
-
400 fades looking nice in the sunlight, some roping/hem detail shots. I love how loosely they did the chainstitching on the hem,
-
@NilsLW nice fit! I wear the same size as you and they fit me exactly the same. You almost forget the inseam is shorter than others once you've worn them for a bit. Makes them really easy to wear with different types of shoes too, boots, sneakers, oxfords etc.

https://www.fromjapan.co.jp/japan/en/auction/yahoo/input/x1092628325/ Anyone looking for some raw Shins era Kyoto's?
-
@kiya Curious about the SD-101, is it a newer version of the existing SD-101 cut?
-
https://redcastheritage.com/products/fullcount-2102w-13-7oz-type-ii-denim-jacket @andrew_ a bit cheaper than BEARS (I can't believe I just typed that)
-
Short list at the moment: Full Count 2107 Type 2 13.7oz (Size 40) Oni Indigo/Black Secret Denim Type 3 (Size 40) Lee Storm Rider (70s) (Size ??? but it fits)
-
Those look amazing @Jared_Lee. Sitting here in my 1101s in the same denim a couple of months in, and hoping they turn out similarly.
-
I think the 710 is the best cut out of the 60s style. 221 is kinda weird and I don't really love it on me. 224 is nice but as @beautiful_FrEaK stated, they have slightly weird proportions in the top block. 710 is just comfy all around and multiple sizes fit me correctly in different ways. Clear winner. If I had to pick an overall favorite out of the current Resolute/Denime offerings, 220 gets my vote for best fabric and best fit.
