I've only taken my 50s off to sleep over the last 3 days. Perfect jeans, truly.

My gyro fell apart yesterday and got on my pants, so it was time to give my 50s their second wash. Probably been about 3-4 months since the last one. Lap and thigh fades are really starting to pop.

It also seems like they are making some changes to models with a red tab—it'll be overdyed indigo before attaching. They are starting after the upcoming restock of 30s jeans and jackets, but the wording seems to imply that all models will eventually have the new tabs.

Interested in the 20's jacket but could go either 46 or 48 based on measurements. Given the extra shrinkage factor of the 20's fabric, does anyone know if the post wash measurements on the TCB site are reflective of max shrinkage, or do you figure there'll be more with subsequent washes?

I would err on the side of them shrinking beyond the listed measurements since they specifically call out that the denim will shrink with subsequent washes, and they've only washed it once.

It looks like the cut is motos old baggy jeans but with a few different details (like orange thread, triple needle stitching)

I've got that jacket in 48.
Compared to when I got it, after wear and a cold wash chest and shoulders remained more or less the same, sleeves and back length shortened by 2 and 1.5cm respectively.
A great jacket, a bit lighter denim, interesting little details.

Much appreciated, great feedback! Also wanting something a bit lighter but don't want to drop over $300 USD on the No. 2 Blouse or Good Luck jacket 😅

No. 2 Blouse

For what it's worth, the No. 2 blouse is a really nice jacket for warmer weather. I find the huge and flapless pocket very handy as well. The No. 2 jeans are pretty great for hot weather too. Mine got a lot of mileage last summer, but much less so in the winter.

I can see how the price differential for the No. 2 blouse compared to the 20s jacket isn't the most appealing though if all one wants is just a lighter weight Type 1 for summer. The details for the No. 2 are pretty fun at least

I kinda like this. They look really clean. Wonder why the change after all these years though

Just hazarding a guess - legal issues.

At the end of the day, they are still a red tab, just overdyed. They'll prob turn a nice purplish red after a handful of washes. I think it'll look nice!
