so how many dogs did it take to make the carpet?

nice fades.

[tweeds]

it's actually kind of creepy, the dog being the same texture as the carpet...

Duck, how is the denim holding up? stitching and all?

[hype_killz]

wow...i hadn't even found the dog until i ready the comment from alex

[thegr8est333]

great fade duck; the thighs look awesome....how long have you been working on those? i hope my 47 lvc's fade similar to that.....

[superBobo]

great indeed ducky, especially the dog.

I got my 501 33 yesterday, gave them a 3 hour soak and now fit is nice. Im somewhat dissapointed with the color though. Compared to 501 47, it isnt as dense and dark and more blueish, even though not much indigo bled in the soak.

Is this for autenticity reasons or just LVC being lazy?

[Charlie Delta]

thanks all,

TIP I've just done my firts repair on them but that was just a small hole on the inside of my right leg due to biking. Apart from that they are holding up great, no broken stitching and no rips anywhere. The fabric is also very soft but still feels really strong everywhere.

the greatest these are a little over 6 months right now and don't nearly get as mch wear as they deserve, unfortunatly for them there are more jeans to fade...

[mikedbt5]

I would guess that any variation in the denim would be due to the dyeing process at the mill . I would guess either at Cone (USA) or Kaihara (Jap) . In the last 18mths I have bought thee pairs of LVC and all have differed slightly in colour but not quality .

1955 - 06 - very , very dark dark indigo

1955 - fall 06 - still dark but a lighter shade of blue

1947 - fall 06 - slightly darker than fall 06 1955

I suspect that this was probably always the case with mills and will continue .

tryed a pair on today nice fit but not sure how they will wear or fade any help please

[Dex_star]

has anyone been to cinch in london?

im headin off tomorrow and want to kno if its worth checking out since i have VERY limited time

im also interested in getting some 1967 505s, which i think is a euro exclusive?

how is the denim on the current models?

[superBobo]

i loved the denim on the 505s i handled. very heavy, compact and with an almost slick surface...

[fre-co]

i went to cinch years ago, they had all the lvc jeans in those days.... nice shop, worth checking.

as posted in the evolution thread...

My LVC 1944, these are about three or three and a half years old

simple perfection. I really like your buttonfly atari

its incredible that the paint on your left backpocket is still there

[fre-co]

Cheers man. Yeah I would have expected the paint to rub off too. Maybe I was rather gentle on the arse!?

[meader]

Incredible color on the close-up pics, fre$co.

[jeepster]

Alright - question time: best place to cope various sizes of LVC 505 '67's in NY or the surrounding area?

the fit is sexy and embodies why jeans in the 60's were badazz.

[Tarmac]

those 44s are awesome, some of the best I've ever seen

[hype_killz]

more pics of some intense fades!!!! i wanna see some ryu level shit...

[reguar]

Finally some good sunlight so I snapped a quick pic of how these are coming along.

More pics when there is more to show.

Also + rep for the first one to point out my dog in the pic...

Wow, awesome fading!

fre$co: Great jeans!

hahahahh @ Alex

[Jamolos Orm]

Thought I'd show some more pics of my 47's, since this thread isn't that active at the moment. Anythin's better than nothin' right.

I am VERY happy with the fit, and the jeans over all. Best piece of clothin' I've ever owned.

[choice_genes]

Hey all. I'm interested in gettting a pair of the 67 505s in 30X34 when cultizm gets the AW07 stuff in.

I'm wondering if anyone who owns them in w30 could help me out with hem measurements. Preferably from the ss07 (because they have been 'slimmed down' like the AW07s are), but measurements from other seasons would be instructive as well.

I am hoping that the w30s come out at about 7.5/19cm hem. (Looking for something that fits slightly slimmer in the leg than eternal 811s) Can anyone confirm? Cheers for the help! -O

[meader]

Nice fit on your blue jeans Jamolos Orm. Nice to see someone wear'n the blues regular and original and not low.

[tangerine]

Dex star, the 67 505s I got from Cultizm have great denim, very dense as superBobo said. Dejan says it is from Kaihara mills. I am very pleased with them.

fre$co, those are fantastic looking!

jeepster, I think the current LVC 505s are a Europe exclusive as Dex star said. Cultizm is very easy to deal with and ship quickly; I would buy true to size, though.

[Sympathy-For-The-Denim]

Hey anbody ever seen a selfstanding pair of jeans? These deadstock 60s 606 superslim are so stiff and made from 14-15oz denim, they stand from alone.

[fre-co]

Yes, several

[nothx]

Nice pictures. Thanks for posting. I have to say your name is quite ingenious, too.

[tweeds]

Yes, several

actually, all the standing jeans i've seen are all post-wash when the drying leaves them crisp. this is the first completely raw pair i've seen standing up.

Nice pictures. Thanks for posting. I have to say your name is quite genious, too.

Thank you, actually I´m new to this forum, I came from mynudies.com were my name is Vinyljunkie... I took this new name because I´m a big Stones fan, aswell as Denim:)

Unfortunately the jean is not my size, it´s W27 L28 so I will keep it like a treasure...

Thanks but I think these are US/EU LVC, I am looking for Japanese washed LVC jeans.
