The '51 does yield some nice fades, posting some various shots from Hoosier.

The '51 cut suits you well b_F, I swear one of these days I'll get around to trying out the core '47 and '51.
But it just gets more and more difficult when they keep releasing seasonal pairs. (collection previews from Komori-san's IG)

Think I’ll get my transition detailed pair from Simone/ WOM after I’m jealous of all the pairs about to show up in that thread. Really like these details. 
 

My 47’s have become fast favorites now the 56’s have been semi retired. Never wore the 51’s but do like the cut.

I'm planning on doing a side by side with the WoM and FW just to see how the end up looking by comparison.

Great fit.  The 1951s I got recently are probably my favorite pair at the moment.  If they ever did a 1951 cut in the S601XX fabric that would be the perfect pair for me.

That’s funny, I feel pretty much the opposite.

The S601XX are close to perfect jeans, for me. They fit dead on just like the R01, and like the R01 they’re made to extremely high standards with top notch materials. That’s great, because if I could just keep wearing R01s forever I probably would. The only issue is that the S601XX denim is too artificially slubby & too fast fading & doesn’t seem to rope and pucker as well as the standard 601XX denim, so I’m stuck having to go back and forth between these and my ‘51s.

This dude also wears '51's (and also actual WWII vintage) and makes me want a pair every time I see them:
