Full Count Denim Thread

[aho]

Bunch of new Full Count models up at BiG with a few more to come...Glad to see they have the revival model (1101S 1993 model)...The denim coverall is crazy, and also the 1653 (not the BiG custom one) should be up soon (which also fade beautifully...Gordon has a pair in the back that you should ask about if in town)!

[CrashTestBrummie]

Good to see this bumped, I've a pair of 1108s on the way...should be arriving anytime in the next week or so, customs permitting...

[aho]

^Funny, I'm planning on buying a pair as well once I (unfortunately) sell my Warehouse 800 which have proven to be too tight....The 1108's are probably the most comfortable jeans with such an amazing fit (despite being raw) out of the jeans I tried on at BiG a few weeks back, I'm glad they finally got a restock!

[CrashTestBrummie]

I picked mine up on ebay, with tab and arcs...a quick look at some of the fit pics on here made my mind up, been wearing fuller-leg jeans for some time now and thought it wouldn't hurt to have a slimmer model to hand...

[tvshooter]

1108's should be on everybody's top 5 list.

Since nobody else does it: pics of the 93 revival, 7 days up to now.

Colour is most accurate in the full shots. Sorry for pic overload.

fit pics entropy? im interested in this cut

[Mich]

Does anyone own the 1108 in the grey selvage fleece denim?

Fleece denim sounds pretty comfy and i like the looks of them.

Just wondering what the fabric looks like up close and feels like.

[aho]

Going to have to double up on the request for fit pics entropy...Also considering a pair! Anyone know if the denim differs from the denim used on the standard 1108, etc? For some reason it seems more streakier on BEARS but in entropy's pics they seem less so...?

EDIT: answered my own question...different denim, but I wonder how the 1101 will fade?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

well...is it certain that it is the same denm whch they used back n 1993? so maybe there are soem old pairs around with fading examples?

[aho]

^off the top of my head, Blue Gear has a pair:

Fade beautifully...Not sure if it's the 1993 old denim though (don't think so), I'll have to read up in a bit, off to work!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

very vintage like and pale. thanks for the pic!

[Max Power]

The roping is really special on those.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yeah that ropingis really intense. got more pics aho

[entropy kid]

Will see what I can do regarding fit pics. Maybe tomorrow. Didn't really see a big difference to the normal 1101 in the Fullcount shop.

[azrael0027]

is anyone bought fc 1108 before ?

[jigsaw]

is anyone bought fc 1108 before ?

???? what do mean???

[aho]

Forgot to search high and low for fit pics of the 1101 revivals....Earthmarket for one provides some:

entropy, we're waiting... ;) (And to be honest, I can't figure which model I want now, the 1108 or the 1101...?)

[Knugget]

1101 LOOKS roomier, and the current trend seems to favor that. fullcount seems to always puts the pockets so damn far apart. i hated that at first, but now it feels kinda weird with pockets "normally" spaced apart

[entropy kid]

Denim care instructios from Full Count store in Amerikamura. Not sure if a non-denimhead would really understand what they want you to do...

[aho]

^damn I love me some Japanglish...

btw entropy, how would you compare the 1101 denim to the standard Zimbabwe cotton 13.75oz?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

isn't it:

looser - slimmer

0105 - 1101 - 1108 (the three most important fits to me)?

[aho]

^That is correct!

[entropy kid]

Fit pics of 93 revival.

These probably don't have all the shrinkage out of the way yet. Tag size is 38.

Can't really say all that much about the denim in comparison to zimbabwe cotton. Structure is rather flattish/smooth despit being quite hairy. I'd say slightly less hairy than my 100% Memphis cotton WH 800 but with much less structure in the weave.

[entropy kid]

To make this more helpful: TTS

[aho]

^Fit looks great! Looks like there is room in the waist/rise for me to size down one but to be honest I do like that TTS fit for comfort...

[entropy kid]

And as a conclusion: fit comparison with a couple of other denims here

[jigsaw]

fit was perfect....

[baldy]

man i really want these, but i want the cut to be with the zimbabwe cotton... i loathe for it from everyone saying how soft it is... i can imagine this denim to be like sc 66's, flat and hairy, stubborn to fade.
