If only I didn't already have a type I and II.   

 

Classic Works is a nice shop, very nice guys who run it.

Dear volvo240,

 

Do you think you can measure the backrise on your 60s?

[Ignaurus]

Fit on my TCB 60's. Denim has really started to change, began to feel very rough the past couple days. Just went into the wash so we'll see what further changes that brings. 

 

[volvo240thebest]

that's a great fit!

as for the back rise measurements, I will provide them as soon as I find a tailor tape!

I just bought the 50's denim jacket... was wondering if I need another 50's jacket but in different material?

:wacko:

[mrman]

If I've understood correctly the sizing on TCB site is once washed, right? But are the garments themselves raw, unwashed and supposed to shrink to the sizes on the site? And is the denim itself unsanforized? I'm trying to get Inoue-san to make me a custom sized 50s jacket and would like the communication with him go without a hitch...

[tigerstrom]

Yes the measurments on the site is one washed. Everything I've ordered from Inoue-san has been one washed but If you ask him to send you a raw jacket he will. The 50s denim is unsanforized.

Thanks, any idea what soak/wash temperature should be used to get to the measurements on the site if one picks the raw garment?

It took at least 2 trips through the wash (on "warm") and a tumble dry on low heat to get all the shrink out of my raw 60s. They've been washed twice since and may have shrunk more but but by a negligible amount, after two they were good to go.

I'm really interested in seeing the duck 50's jacket, be sure to post plenty of pictures!

Does anyone have the TCB 30's cap? I kind of like how floppy it looks, but I'd be interested in seeing more people wearing it.

I've looked through the TCB blog a bit, but I don't know how silly I would look in one.

look up #tcbjeans on instagram and you will see some

Do you happen to have any photos of you wearing it?

I'm interested in the brown herringbone version, or the black version posted today on the TCB blog.

I have and wear a couple baseball caps frequently and was looking to branch out, but I hate most hats with brims that go all the way around. It's like some recent style trend that's pretty popular in Austin and it bugs me. But most of them are stiff, this cap seems more floppy and has it's own style. 

[heavydoom]

broark, i will take a picture of the hat.  it's not going to be a fancy photo.  i do not own a stellar cell phone but you will get a basic idea. 

 

what kind of shots do you want?

volvo!!!   will there be ONLY 50 of these jackets made?  is hajime also going to be making this version for tcb?

[Broark]

Thanks heavydoom, just a basic front facing photo and maybe a side profile would be helpful too.

yes limited numbers and they're almost sold out already. I don't think this will be added to TCB standard line.

I'm placing my order for the 50's duck jacket. Maybe a chance not to be missed?

Hello Everyone !
 
I just bought a TCB 50's jean jacket. Great quality cotton, and all. Only thing is that I'm not sure about the fit on me. Indeed, the shoulders slop a bit ; so I'm wondering if I should make an exchange and pick a smaller size. Here's a photo (sorry for the bad quality).
 


So, as you may know TCB products, do you think I should make an exchange ? Wouldn't I be to tight, in a smaller size ? Moreover, may the jacket get even more unwiden, as I haven't wore it yet a lot ?

Thank you very much for your answer, in advance ! And I wish you to have a very good day.

I think the shoulders look fine for a jacket. You'll want a bit more room compared to shirts.

[Flash]

Looks a bit long if I'm honest but the rest fits fine

[alvin_cheong]

Yeap, you looked good in it. My looks exactly same like yours but sleeves is a tad longer, but I can live with it as nwill be wearing with shirts  or during winter maybe a sweater.

[volvo240thebest]

I think it looks good on you, too. A size down would be too tight. And yeah it's a bit long as Flash says but that's the way TCB 50's jackets are designed.
