Denime

@tooth Thank you for your response which helps me a lot. At what temperature did you wash batch 221? 40 degrees? Would you have the waist measurement laid flat (with the front and back lined up)?

[CharlieMike]

@xchen Thank you for the info. Yes I think the W32 will be perfect.

[tooth]

@CharlieMike here are the pre/post wash measurements for my pair of 221. I’m not entirely certain of the water temp, but 40C would be in the ballpark.

Raw/Washed - Inches
Waist: 17/16
Rear Rise: 15.5/15
Front Rise: 12/11
Thigh: 12.25/11.25
Knee: 9.5/9
Hem: 8.25/7.75
Inseam: 34/32

 

[CharlieMike]

@tooth Thanks for the measurements

[CharlieMike]

For those interested, Warehouse has updated the shrinkage indications for lot 221. For the size it is indicated 2-3 cm, it was previously indicated 5-6 cm.

And they changed their language from Japanese into French!

 

j/k, thanks for the info

@beautiful_FrEaK that denim is definitely appealing so I was curious... alas the 52s would be too small / a crush post wash so will pass. Maybe the seller will split them if they don't sell as a pair

@Bobbo how are your 37s coming along pal?

10 years later I check in to see this, haha. Sorry mate for the late reply. Still got the 1937’s and could sort out some measurements (really should post that stuff on the blog…).

Like b_F says the raw measurements was pretty much tag size so they’ve been too small for me since 2015 or so. But now they fit again as I’m down to a 31 waist now. Beautiful pair of jeans, could never bring myself to sell them.

Lot 221

Size 34 after a warm soak

[CharlieMike]

I received my Lot 221, in length 30, which corresponds to a length 33 before washing. I noticed something interesting, the direction of the twill is opposite on the white part of the selvedge. As on my Resolute 710, the same for lot 220. On my Levis 501 the twill is in the same direction. Do you have any information on this particularity? I made a diagram.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Yes, that's how Denime (especially Hayashi-san and thus later Resolute as well) want to increase the train tracks.

Gave the 221 another warm soak, air dry and got a bit more shrinkage but not overly noticeable. I'm typically a 33 in most Japanese denim but opted for a 34 in this cut just to not have something too snug on my waist. 

Overall, this cut fucking rules. 

[blooming]

Those are a perfect fit on you!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

@unorthodox looks good! Did they eventually shrink down to 34" in the waist?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Shins Type2 with Lot.220. Given how quick and easy this denim fades, should I be embarrassed to have no combs?!

 

[CharlieMike]

@beautiful_FrEaK I also noticed that the TCB 50s and 60s had this particularity ↘︎↗︎↗︎↘︎ of the direction of the twill. This is probably why the train tracks are so marked on the resolute. Did you have with your 220 a strong marking of the buttonhole like on the Resolute? Do you know how to get this?

No my 220 don't have a very pronounced button fly fade. This is surely affected by the shape of the buttons and probably the tightness of the hip/crotch/fly area. My 220 are looser in this area than my 710 for example.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Also here is some construction info about Denime's XX pair. The part of the crotch construction is interesting since I always thought my Orizzonti-era XX are just shoddy sewn. But it was done on puprose in that area to strengthen it.

Ok thank you. This is one thing I really like about Resolute.

These actually started close a 35 waist and shrank down to about 33 but quickly stretched out to about 34.

These are actually Padmore & Barnes.

A (still) rather cheap pair of Denime 10th 1937. Sure, they are worn but good condition.

Keep up the valiant search bF... I think I could make a 34 or 36 work but no pressure

[beautiful_FrEaK]

You should have bought the double pack recently

[MJF9]

In hindsight, we could have had one pair each 👖👖 (gratuitous emoji usage!)

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I was thinking the exact same thing... Should have just split it.

Still enjoying the Lot.220?
