here's my 33's in action.... going for a hike in the Santa Monica Mountains around Thousand Oaks CA..... Awesome day, awesome trails and thanks to all the rain, plenty of creeks to cross...

[chris_n]

is the 2010 LVC true to size as in will shrink to tagged size or starts off at tagged size?

Anybody know what kind of jeans the Beaver wore? I caught a "Leave it Beaver" episode the other day and I couldn't catch any details on his jeans. I gotta get a picture of him on the "iconic" denim thread. The Beav was super stylish.

[Shorty Long]

Many thanks. I think I might have found a U.S. source for this shirt. I was dreading having to track down my old Cinch contact info.

I didn't ask about anything else, but they're getting a lot of new deliveries over the next couple of weeks.

Bad pics below.

Did something else bad happen while I was sleeping? Look like every single post I've made in all of Superfuture has been deleted, and any that even referred to me. No messages from management...

I feel like some transgressive Egyptian pharaoh, stricken from all record.

Really?

[cheapmuthafukr]

no... server crashed and they had to backup ot yesterday sometime.

[roy6]

Ah. Good to know. But does that then mean that I'm not the center of the universe after all?

i bought a pair of lvc 1947s from the levi's site for $99 during the sale. just got them and would like some comments on the fit. i gave these a hot soak in my tub and hung them up to dry.

for reference, i'm 5'8", 155, usually wear a 30. these are 31/34.

thoughts?

sorry for the bad quality photos...

[erk]

those are gonna be reaaaaally tight after you wash them. be careful.

i already hot soaked them... you think they'll shrink a lot more when i wash them again?

[almostnice]

looking good with the 1907s.

just soak them in cold water for 15 min,i did this with a pair of 47s before.its doable,but in the end it was too much hassle for me,with careful washing and all the stretching after.therefore i sold it.

another fact is that sizing down also means the whole topblock is considerably smaller and can look like "ass eats jeans".

edit:this clashed with your last post,in case of hotsoaking already you will be fine!

[erk]

yeah. I'd say a hot soak gets a little over half the shrinkage out of the way.

it may actually be less, but it is definitely noticeable after the first wash.

for instance - I hot soaked my 1915s for 2 hours, then cold hand washed then hang dried.

the other day, after a little over a month of wear, I hand washed them in luke water and I got another .5" out of the inseam. I didn't measure the thigh, but it feels like they've tightened up there too.

If you like that fit, be sure to keep those cold when washing.

cool, thanks for the tips, this is my first pair of lvc's, so i don't know much about them. i appreciate the help.

Hey guys, picked up my first pair of Levis LVC's this past Sunday. Gave them a hot soak and wore them for 2 days straight. What do you guys think?

[akka225]

sizing down also means the whole topblock is considerably smaller and can look like "ass eats jeans".

yeah, that's a good way of putting it, "ass eats jeans" is exactly what i'm concerned about and something i'd like to avoid. do you think these will stretch out enough in the top block?

probably. they will likely stretch to raw size or over at the waistband. you might around .5" at the thigh.

[electrum]

WTF's the deal, either I'm losing my mind or a post been deleted?? I believe it was Airfrog who had some real cool 201 wear pics, but I can't find. I don't think I'll ever get use to how SupFU works. B'tween the lost posts, difficult search parameters and reps that don't register, it can sometimes be a bit frustrating.

[taishing]

^^ i believe a day or two worth of posts has been deleted in addition to rep, parts of the site were down for a while last night I'm not sure if that had anything to do with it though.

[prochek]

noticed that some posts where deleted so here we go again.. just want to share some pictures, Levis XX F/W´10. Here´s the link:

These are the weird LVC/Cone sample jeans I posted, which got deleted. I soaked them, they didn't shrink up at all, and didn't look to have been soaked post-production, so I am guessing that it is sanforized denim, which may lend some credence to this being a sample Cone produced for possible use on LVC's sanforized models (551zxx, 501-65, 501-77, 501-83, etc.)
