Levi's Vintage Clothing

[Guest Selvage Seb.]

Thanks for the comments, yes.. even the negative ones

To Erk; you're totally right, to each his own..

and like I said, how they are at this point even I think it's a bit too much and obvious. But it's about the process, after a few months of wear and some washes these will look great!

Oh, and remember the paint is on waterbase, so the 'problem' is not that big

Cheers

Erk, your 37's look awesome. How did you size them?

hey, I'm new to lvc. Could someone tell me if these are the same jeans:

The caliroots write-up says the denim is 14oz, but I was under the impression lvc uses 13.5 or less.

thx

Hey, I need some informations about post soak shrinking and backstretching on the 47's...I'm a regular 32 and want them to fit straight and slim. Thx in advance!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

mine were tagged 34 measured 33" pre-soak (this isn't the case with the newer ones I've read). They shrank to 31,5" and streched back out to 34,25" (wearing damp)

Ah okay, thx. Other experiences with those newer stocks?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

newer stocks are just true to tagged-size...nothing different in the denim AFAIK

Dr. House, I just got some 2009 47's from cultizm. They were tagged 36x36. The waist measured ~36.5.

Thanks guys!

how should i size on 67 505s to get a Flathead BSP-like fit.

Hi folks,

Thanks for the recent PMs and rep etc.

While I was away working i didn't neglect my LVC - wore the 1901 over the summer, and the 55 once the weather turned. The 1901 looked even better when they were dirty, but were beginning to honk. THese are quick and dirty shots, as my Canon G9 died recently. (a mystery why, all the g/f did was leave it in her bag along with a half-open bottle of Evian). Haven't had a chance to check of colour looks right, but these should give you an idea.

The 1901 had only been handwashed before, IIRC, the 55 was its second full wash, maybe 9 months. Both fabrics retained the indigo really well, as you can see if you compare the laps with the bottom of the leg.

back on the right track!

Both pairs look amazing, especially those 55's.

LVC posters are the shy-est on Sufu. We need more fit pic's. It'd be great to see what those 1901 look like on someone.

[erbs]

Great jeans Paul. Welcome back!

[DrMoBueno]

[Tanner13]

[Leonard Leroy]

Damn, I forget how good those look. I'm wearing my 55s right now, just washed them the other day with my samurais

[almostnice]

Well, thanks for the pics and sorry for the trouble. I forgot about the search engine.

Nah,its all good ,just having fun taking the piss alittle.if you are considering getting a 1901 i can recommend them.denim is about 9 ounce,so more a summer jean,if you want a real vintagecut for the colder times i recommend the 1927 or 37,which i both dont own,maybe the other LVC lot around here will help you.you should check Paul T's 501 guide.when using the search function scroll down to the gooogle field and fill in your needs,that will direct you to all the info you need.Good,how nice can i be,still drunk...

[Tanner13]

No problem, thanks again for the infos, I was kinda curious about the 1901 and its "bagginess". I actually entered the LVC contest with a pair of Knappave. I'm new and still looking around, trying to take it all in...

The 1915s would be my recommendation.
