How many pairs of jeans do you own?


Recommended Posts

Update- have just checked another drawer and found the following:

Paul smith Red ears. Beautiful fades on these but way to baggy for me these days

Edwin ED47's- rainbow selvedge- nicely worn in but not touched for a few years

Edwin ED35's- rainbow selvedge- barely worn

Some scraggy old Duffer St George jeans from many years ago. Worn to buggery and probably only good for patches.

A pair of raw Duffer jeans that I picked up in a sample sale many years ago. Bandana pockets and some very nice details & denim. The cut's a bit rubbish so i'll get them sorted at some point in the future

a pair of EVIL jeans- raw. 1930's cut. Like these (not my pic)...http://www.outerlimitz.net/communities/8/004/009/954/598/images/4578265995_525x349.jpg

I think these were the ones that encouraged Levis to get injunctions taken out. Made by a British guy over in LA

Kee denim- strange jeans that I bought many years back and barely wore. No idea if the company still exists

1966 lee 101's. Barely worn

a pair of thai Wrangler copies. Decent enough for the £35 I think I paid for them, but also barely worn.

Recently sold a few pairs but currently (from memory)

Eternal 811's

Skull 5010's

Allevol, shape 2

Kicking mule workshop Rockers

Red cloud R400's x 2 (1 worn in , 1 raw)

3 pair of 1937 LVC 201's (1 knackered, one part worn, one raw. All 555's)

67 505 LVC x 1

47 LVC x 2

20's 201's x 1

1915 501's

a few pairs of 60's big E's in the loft, 1 pair pre 1983 Little 'e' deadstock 501's

On the way- Samurai 710's, leftfield 16'oz natural indigo's. Probably about to be stung by a massive customs bill :angry:

just a few pairs of stonewashed pepe with the plastic keyring intact ;)

Don't remember Ball. Was that another scumbag casual brand?

We're they those awful Pepe jeans that were cut like pleated chinos?

Ball were a popular (south London) baggy, casual acid-house era-esque brand.

How about some Fioruccis or FUs (I wore both of those brands a lifetime ago)?

Dunno- never had a pair but I remember Pepe were popular with others during my youth- or at least those plastic key rings were.

4.

Samurai 710 - When I want to wear the most ridiculously detailed and optioned pair of jeans I can think of. The rivets, the pocket bags, the silver selvedge, the slubbiness . . . Crazy. To me, they're the pinnacle of what jeans can be. Plus, they're nice and heavy.

Warehouse 660 - When I want to step back from the obsessiveness and wear a pair of jeans with a simple, fantastic fit and sublime, understated denim. Classic, really. They're the foil to the 710s, much lighter, much quieter, but overall they're fantastic.

Unbranded 201 - Sitting in the closet, given to me by a friend, never worn. I've been spoiled by my Samurais!

Rittenhouse Skinny - Retired. First pair of raw, selvedge jeans. Decent introduction into this weird little world.

Honourable mention: Sugar Cane Type II Jacket.

That is a great collection! and also covering all the Osaka5 brands. We demand some more pics! :)

edit: to be honest, I favor your collection over mine :D If I would have to build up my collection again, I would try out some more brands and wouldn't focuss to much on one single brand
