As the year came to an end, I saw that I was selling faster than I was buying. I wondered: what do I want to buy next year? I can't think of anything. And there doesn't seem to be anything more to sell. Am I approaching a magical balance and realisation of happiness? No way, I know I'm not. Some sneaky urge to buy will come most surely.🙄

 

Rejoice! .. it's only taken you 2yrs of sufu membership to get to this state of equillibrium.. it took me a good 10 for others, it's an ongoing battle.

1. S&S X Ooe Yofukuten OA01XX-505B

2. orSlow x Blueowl Double Black 105

You need to be more careful when vacuuming...

And by "box," you mean box truck.

Those 36 Denimes are way too big for you -- please sell  😉

Which ones exactly? 😉

[Dr_Heech]

I think @beautiful_FrEaK needs to buy a fire proof vault as those vacuum bags will perish over the decades 🤔

@beautiful_FrEaK Well damn, every time I check in Sufu after a few years, your collection has morphed from Samurai to mostly Denime. I'll be interested to see your collection in another 5 years.  I still have most of my collection, but sold about 30% of it.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

@coleslawyum long time no see! I really hope that in 5 years not much has changed at all 😆

Between the weight fluctuations and remote working, I've only worn one pair the last few years, the Denime Type 66, McCoy's Era. I haven't made an inventory in a long time, and I'm surprised at some of the pairs I've gotten rid of, like 45rpm, Kapital, Eternal etc. and the ones I've kept. Looks like I went Samurai crazy earlier in my collecting phase, which I'm retired from.

18. Lvc  1880s XX  (cosplay only)

19. Original NOS Levi's 501 from 1978 which l guess l will sell at some point

I also have 'matching' denim jackets/blouses for the following:

Warehouse 1927 506xx (WH 1922)

Lee 1930s 101J (Lee 1930s 101 S/r)

Lvc 1880's XX triple pleat (Lvc 1880's cosplay)

 

CURRENTLY FOR SALE -

Lvc 1929 201 from 2000 (555) BNWOT 34x34

 

 

Not quite as many as some of you supermods but enough for me. Decided a simple tweak of my previous update was the best way to go. Nothing much has changed in 2 years apart from altering my previous for sale WH 1927s and then wearing them. They feel cut wise like a 47 imo. Also the love affair with my smaller pair of Lee's is still very on and off. So 22 pairs in all with 12 pairs active. Other than that, just enjoying my denim.

What alterations did you do to the Warehouse ‘27 pair Charlie?

Well l never wanted to sell them in the first place as l love the duck digger denim and the details.

So for me the Warehouse 1927 (it's actually their old 1922) model has a lower back rise (15") than all my other jeans, which usually are a 16" minimum. With all the hardware around the waistband (suspender buttons, cinch strap and buckle) my belt would push this hardware into my lower back and it would be painful. Removing all this 'gumph' made them more comfortable to wear.

Wearing them now 🙂

👍 I did the same with a pair of Full Count 0105SFS (an old 1937 style export model I bought deadstock from eBay - with upside down Levi’s arcs). They were slightly low rise for a cinchback pair so I unpicked the cinch stitching, removed the cinch rivets and wore them with a belt.

Yeah best to try and get some wear out of them. My old Roy jeans are a lower front rise and slimmish so not my style anymore. Fucked if l'm giving them away, l just chuck them on if l'm doing cementing or something similar. Get some more miles out of them.

Fair play for having the patience to unpick the cinch strap stitching, l just cut mine to leave 2 riveted squares.

I'll add mine too. I try to keep things limited to pairs that I wear at least semi-regularly. Samurai S211VX got the boot this year - fades were starting to come in nicely but way too tapered for my calves and leg opening way too small for my feet.

Warehouse Duck Digger 1001xx 1947 (probably my most worn pair)

TCB 50's (close 2nd in terns of wear frequency)

TCB Cat's Drive (occasional wear for now until the WH get too rough)

RRL Black Slim High (nicely fade in lap but too slim and tapered for me now + waist touch too big; very occasional wear)

Sugar Cane 1947 Black x White (new pickup to replace RRL in rotation as black pair)

TCB No. 2 1890 (to arrive this summer - may bump Cat's Drive depending on how I feel or get bumped if not to my taste)

Denime 232 Type II (only jacket for now)

Still quite some admirable collections around.

I myself just wear my Ironheart x Swissjeansfreak 14 oz straight cut collab jeans every day since January 2024.

My older worn out jeans have become a part of the Jeansmuseum like all my other old jeans and denim jackets back since 1973

[MJF9]

@swiss-jeansfreak do you have an inventory of all the jeans in your Jeansmuseum?
