25 min left on nice Lee repros

I've been watching this auction, but I think it will go higher than I am willing to, so I thought I should post it here. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7772043168

I don't know about the authenticity but they look good.

funny, i was watching that one, too. wan't sure what to make out of this spelling:

[red]

spelling says it all. theyre definitely japanese repros. you cant blame them though. japanese know more engrish than americans do japanese.

yup, that UNIO was a bit weird. I should have kept on bidding on those, I thought they would go over 200 but they stopped at 110.

They look great, don't they?

But why red selvage? Lee never had red selvage. The hair on hide patch looks strange, too, and if it's Edwin-made should have a model-ticket attached.

Loads of other details seem perfect, quite a few seems atypical if they are a '37 model. and they're good looking jeans. But either Edwin have cut a few corners with a new range, or else these are some of the best vintage repro counterfeits we've seen to date.

My broadband is real slow today & I don't have time to search, but can anyone find the link posted here before to the current Edwin range? Might give more definitive clues.
