WW2 repro / detailed jeans

[beautiful_FrEaK]

seeing those Mirrorballs above...did someone already ask them if they sell overseas?

[Double 0 Soul]

Cant answer that i have used proxy to buy from mirrorball and it took them 9 days to ship even though they quote next day, Could have been a stock issue, for me it was just a blood pressure issue.

Bored today sitting at home with the wimps disease ( hay fever ) so I thought I'd take some pics of my s9202xx

( these fit pics are re posted from the ooe thread )

Upcoming Deluxeware WWII model: DX040A WWS2

The folks at Deluxeware comparing how the initial washing and drying method affect the WW2S denim, hot wash and tumble dry vs warm wash and hang dry.

I find it interesting that the heat seems to change the hue of the denim.

Almost a neg there due to the complete lack of wear-age. B)

We discussed great details with Mohsin Sajid, founder of ENDRIME

Transparency and visions in the jean industry

[edmond]

so where in the article states that ensrime produces ww2 cut jeans?

[UnionofArtisans]

so where in the article states that ensrime produces ww2 cut jeans?

The article does not specifically state ww2 no but, Mohsin points out that his work contains production methods and/or standards from the past thus referring to the details and constructions such as ww2 inspired jeans. He hugely respects the iconic styles and tries to implement this as much as possible regarding the production manner.

seems like the Warehouse guys have a finger in every pie  

 

Warehouse now even sells regular Evisu products on their own webshop, not just the collabs.

b_F, are all of the Denime WWII repros featured with a zipper instead of buttons? The one I saw on Denimio made me worry.

 

Now with this new Denim Competition by Mega I consider a WWII cut for my battle pair ^^

I need something with a definitly high rise and wide fit.

The 1003XX from Warehouse caught my eyes, but I think I want an even higher rise. My KAPITALs got a 29/39 (fr/br cm) and a 76 waist. So far I havn't found a pair from anybody else with nearly the same measurements. Was into RMC too, but Nagoyas measurements seem so crazy that I ran away.

 

Is there a place to buy FCs WWII repros?

 

Thanks for this thread fellas

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Hej C.

yeah I recently saw that the Denime WW2 offers a zip fly. The older model from 1-2 years ago had a button fly.

RMC has at least 2 WW2 models IIRC and they really have a high rise. You could check the measurements on BiG's website.

 

Fullcount offers several WW2-inspired models every year. This year they have/had 4 models in their standard fits (0105, 1108, 1101) with WW2 details.

 

Nearly every repro brand offers a WW2 repro so you should find plenty of options

[Blue Nemo]

Your last point, that certainly is true

 

All the FC stuff I found was already sold, anyway. Got time. People over here might post pics and I get hooked

[setterman]

You want the highest rise, go with a LVC '44 S501XX. You want the best, go with the warehouse 1003XX.

[setterman]

Something to consider.... anyone interested in a doing a WWII "contest" starting with the anniversary of the end of the war in August?  Six to ten guys spending a year in the WWII Levis or Lee style jean of their choosing. Really more of a showcase than contest.     

[oomslokop]

more of a denim cold war!

[Blue Nemo]

Or starting with the beginning of the new world denim championship.
I just can not wait til the end of august 15....

 

And thanks for the 1003XX tipp, was thinking about that too.
Do you have them yourself, may share some fitpics?

Nemo, there's fit pictures taken after the first wash on page 141 on the Warehouse thread.  With two more washes, the fit hasn't changed.  Shrank to tagged (36x34).

 

Actually there's three 1003XX out right now hoggreaser, chambray, flannel, and OD HBT pockets.  Regular fly buttons on the chambray pocket version, donut buttons on the other two.  I think there's a little variation in fit too (1 to 2 cm difference at waist pre-wash).

From the name, the new Warehouse 1001SXX (S = simplified) could be a WW2 model...but it shares no details of an WW2 model. Only the straight fit.

 

The new contest starts in May 2015 (IIRC) so 3 months less wait for you and enough time for your Kapital

DANG! Thanks both of you

 

How much have they stretched (in the waist especially), setterman?
It appears that the versions still available at ware-house.co.jp are all one washed.

Oh! So there is. I hadn't seen the OD pocket ones. Also I was wrong, not chambray, they're calling it denim pocket bags.

 

For Nemo...

Exactly my thoughts, Till

 

Rotating these two would be a lot of fun, and I am not so eager to win anything, anyway

Your sams are looking awesome by the way.
