any good places to get the 54s besides cultizm?

Whats wrong with cultizm? Order on Monday and they're usually in your hands before Thursday even half way around the world.

Did you try Aero Leather in Scotland?

Just thought I'd post these -

1930's youths 201's, interestingly they have back pocket rivets but no suspender buttons (?)

Also, an early 1920's 506xx, pre-red tab -

Hows the zip on these after shrinking, has it buckled ?

I have the drab wash '54's too, they are a the nicest fitting jeans I've had in a while, very flattering

The zip's buckled a little, but nothing serious.... I kept it fastened while I soaked them which helps with that, I think.

As for fit pics Haku, I'm back at work now so it'll have to wait, but I'll try and get some up tonight or at the weekend! But if you're used to the roomier repro cuts and fancy a slimmer jean without going in the whole APC/Dior/"fashion" jeans direction, I reckon they're a good choice.

Cool stuff.

Whenever I see the first two versions of the Levi's jacket's I wonder if clothes the Chinese wore around San Fran influenced the design. They have a real "oriental" (sorry I know that's not PC) feel to to some of the design elements.

How much have they stretched?

I feel that it is allmost possible to size down with the 54's....

Double post with the 'suspenders - who rocks em?' thread. A week on the farm with 1900s-style cabin, stove, brit army braces, 1901 LVC and Sunset Shirt. This jeans are now really worn in, knees just wearing though, and look great. They now have extra soot and grease stains, looks maybe even more like eltopo's indigo immortals, that i still miss...

[Dr_Heech]

Lookin good Mr. T ! Still cant rep you but will do asap.

Buckle in the post.

[chromesquared]

I'm at a Levis sale ATM.

If anyone wants the cotton duck coat (with arm hole vents and a bunch of pockets, hunting style?) in a 38 or 40 For 220USD shippedemail to [email protected] ASAP.

[entertainment!]

Paul, tried to rep. Those look great.

But I expected them to be held up by the cinch.

[Paul T]

THey were for most of the holiday! It's great... just like the old one except it works. I was going to podt in-situ photos but thought that was too nerdy... but I'll so do when I've stripped Dr H's buckle, which is sitting in the g/f's nail polish remover at the moment.

Heads up for the last of natterjack's sale :

They have the 47 and 33 raw in 30 W for £67.50; I'm guessing it's newish stock, so the 33 will have a 31inch waist, which you can probably wear true to size.

[Dr_Heech]

@Paul

Thanks dude, owe you.

Lovin the old timer pics btw. Eltopo's, now yours... (and entertainment's)

My stuff hasn't had too much wear (too warm)...

201's and 55's for £70 in a sale, I was hoping nobody here would catch on but I have mine so I'm throwing it out tin the open

[ThomasK]

how to understand the sizing on the site? what is "32L" or "32R"?

[BlackenedRoar]

R is a 32 leg, L is a 34

[ThomasK]

and where to choose the waist size? ( maybe it's the heat )

ouu noow: so 32L makes 32/34?

[BlackenedRoar]

Indded it does

[ThinFinn]

@paulT: def. +rep on your last fitpic...great!

[Happy Hooligan]

with they made a 34 XXL... I mean a 34 leg will shrink to a 30-31...

[crownzip]

Just when i thought my '33 501's were looking good a buddy of mine showed up wearing his yesterday. He claimed he's never washed them except for getting caught in the rain a couple times. BTW, the background is a 40's Plymouth.

[roy6]

crownzip, your buddy's '33s are pretty amazing. I went and had a talk with my own pair after I saw that pic.

BlackenedRoar & PaulT- thanks for the heads-up. I picked up a pair of the 201s from jingo. I looked at Paul's 501 guide and it looks like the (2007?) 201s are oversized by 3 inches- I ordered a 32/34, which I am hoping after soaking will be about a 33/31. Sound right?

I bet it was weird asking the guy to take a picture of him for an internet forum, huh?

Anyways, they look pretty cool.
