Full Count Denim Thread

[Flash]

There was a S01 model and im pretty sure a 501 too , id love to see the 0101 model make a return

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Please school me guys: what's the 0101 model? Not the 1993 re-issue from few years back?!

[Flash]

The 0101 is a late 40's cut similar to the 0105 but with less taper , you see a few pop up on yahoo auctions but mostly worn

ah thanks R.! kay. and what's up with the 0501? Is it different from the 0105 in terms of cutting? I would have guessed Fullcount had to re-arrange the numbering in order to avoid problems with Levi's. 

[Flash]

Yea , have not payed much attention to the 0501 ( exposed selvedge being the big factor) but i think its just the standard 0105 cut but im not 100%

From a little dig on denim gallery:

 

D501XX: http://denim-gallery.heavy.jp/fullcount/d501xx.html (so, a slightly different lot number... intended as a full-on Levi's repro)

 

And fuck it, while I'm here, some of the best 1108 out there: http://denim-gallery.heavy.jp/fullcount/1108c.html

Dunno if anyone saw Tsujita's Facebook post earlier today...It was a pic of what looked like a Leepro with LHT...Looks like he pulled it down though, I wonder if they'll be releasing something soon?

And fuck it, while I'm here,

 

You can take the boy out of Sheffield but you cant take Sheffield out of the boy.

[Flash]

fullcount had a leepro model a few years ago but the only place you would find them now would be yahoo auctions , the model number was 1107

Starting to put some wear in the 1109xx's

Wearing

Joe McCoy ballpark sweat

Joe McCoy tee

Fullcount 1109xx

Vans

[SLAB]

1101's are in the laundry; I hope they are dry by tomorrow for their first 'outing'

 

bit disappointed though as I noticed some of the thread at the butt unraveled...

[bradl]

Damn, that fit is spot on Flash. 

 

Really need to pick up a McCoy sweater, or SDA sweater. Just don't know how I feel about those cuffs on the Ballpark.

[Flash]

looking forward to the fit pic's mate

thats real bad luck with the thread , nothing like that has ever happened with mine ... not even the 1108's and they have had a fair bit of wear 

[SLAB]

actually they are brand new so I guess the person stitching them had a off day or something

[Flash]

yea , thats what i thought 

 

i guess it was not apparent before they were washed  ?

[Bill_e_jean]

wearing my 1109xx at the oktoberfest in munich last saturday. not much to see because it´s a brand new pair.

 

[Flash]

just testing my new phone camera and thought id post it

 

[moacyr]

Here are some iphone fit pics for the 1108 in 34 post-soak- I really like the fit, though it's slimmer than what I'm used to.  Apologies for the crappy pictures.

 

 

 

[SLAB]

here are some fit pictures of my 1101's. I imagined them to be more full fitting but they will do the job for now

May I ask the details on the shirt, love it.

[cmo]

Interested in this 1101 cut..... Anyone any tagged 32 or 33 post soak measurements? Are they much slimmer in lower leg than 1108's?

I had 1108's before in a w35 ended up way too big after stretching and the legs were a crap fit on me. Tight on thigh and too loose below knee.

[garden gnomes in space]

i think and-japan has the one wash measurements posted.  So does okayama denim if I am not mistaken.  

[ThomasK]

So the 1101 is basically a bit more 50s vintage-like compared to the 1108 with more room in the thighs? The leg opening seems to be just a little wider. So that should lead to a kind of taper, but on an overall looser cut.The rise is higher as well? Fit and fabric look really great, SLAB! May I ask which size you wear?

[SLAB]

hi ThomasK; the rise is definitely higher and thighs roomier than the 1108. I am not sure the leg opening is wider; will need to check with my pair. I wear size 29

 

bradl, the shirt is the Freewheelers star Wabash shirt; not cheap but amazing craftsmanship

[setterman]

0105 50s

1101 60s-ish

1108 40s-ish

Hello guys.. i wonder if there're any more differences between 1108 and 1108XX beside their weight.. How about their colour, fabric, details, etc? Maybe someone can share and let me know.. thanks in advance!

[Flash]

details are the same , xx denim is darker and starts out with more character   

 

you really cant go wrong with either 

Edited October 14, 2013 by Flash

[beautiful_FrEaK]

just look through this thread. Flash posted a one on one comparison at least twice already

what Flash said ... can't go wrong w/either.

also had the pleasure of experiencing the 13.75oz & the 15.5oz

both got soft to touch right after a few wears__ lovely denims.

 

13.75oz had more stretch over all , but the  15.5oz took longer to fade & EVOed with more contrast down the line__ in my own experience, of course.

Are you thinking off the 15.5oz denim BM ? If so that denim is different from the 15.5oz xx denim . Really should have entered that contest , some great looking jeans came out of it
