[hype_killz]

^ yeah the train track thing is definitely apparent

[bruised]

fuck yeah. this is what denim should look like, not the overly starched fake contrastry crap that some people people post on the evo thread...

only comes with not giving a fuck and time.

I've never seen pictures of real 1937 101 Lee's before, the honeycombs on these are legit.

unfortunately I'm not sure that those Lee's really arent repros, They should've had Levis style arcs I think. But if they are the real deal, then Edwin sure as hell did an amazing job when making the Repros, mine looks almost identical, just a bit less fucked..

Edit: This doesnt really prove anything, but these are my repros taken with flash and retouched almost the same way that these seem to be:

hmm you maybe right, the selvedge line looks just about exactly the same as your repro's. it'd be a shame if they were lying.

[lilldavid]

what realy made me suspicious is that he put such low price on them to begin with.

[Guest Phrost]

lilldavid you Lees look amazing. Are those Edwin reporos or something else? Where and how much did you get them for?

[lilldavid]

Thanks! I love how they have gotten such a "real" vintage fade. Got them for my birthday two years ago. they were bought in shop called Solo here in Sthlm and they were 193 Euro then. They raised the price on these about a year ago so now they are 246 Euro. If you get them from japan they are 112 Euro. you can get them here: http://www.rakuten.co.jp/super-rag/1785607/1785609/

Amazing job on those Lee's Lildavid.

Also, these from half a page up, didn't the LVC repros have donut buttons?

If so, when during the wartime production did they switch?

Coin pocket:

I guess they went to 4 buttons during the war (didn't realize)

[Young King]

jesus those are tight

[chucksvintage]

The Lee hair on hide are my favorites for Lee. I have been honored to sell a few of them and let me tell you they are trully amazing.

[evisu 2000]

anyone notice in no country for old men, the dope fades on the kid-on-the-bike's jeans towards the end?

[chucksvintage]

That movie was so scary.

[selaviso]

[cheep]

Hi,

Best thread in a really long time! Its funny how one starts to recognize the Thai fakes just by the way they fade. We had this shop here in stockholm that had loads of Thai fakes and they had all more or less faded the same. just like these two in this thread.

Look at this! :eek:

They really know how to make really 'nice looking' jeans.

[lilldavid]

[Paul T]

Old fave, might as well have it in the correct place...

And no-one else seems to like this jacket, but I do...

[Charlie Delta]

When did anyone say they didn't like that jacket Paul?

It's great imho...

[salaami]

is it a kids jacket? interesting find.

[Sympathy-For-The-Denim]

Marvins side is a a true delight, especially those 1942 are damn interesting! Why? 1. Because it really seems that Levi´s produced Jeans in WW2 even without arcuate painting, if there had been arcuates before and wore off, the overall colour couldn´t occure that deep blue, otherwise I don´t know if the arcuates disappeared already after one wash... 2. Those laurel leaf button fly =) ...I hope LVC will do a 1942 repro in upcomming seasons!!!

[cheep]
