Full Count Denim Thread

colt - 1101 is a regular cut with a taper.

[bluedust]

interesting, what is LHT fabric ? 12.5 seem too thin.

12.5oz LHT deadstock denim, based on 1108 cut

[Snake]

LHT = left hand twill. Indicate the direction of the weave. If you look at the jean, the grain lines run from the top left-hand corner of the fabric towards the bottom right. Lee denim always use LHT where as Levi's always use right hand twill. Most denim produced now is RHT.

12.5 oz is light weight but vintage denim from the 40s and 30s are about 11.5 to 12.5 oz. Heavier isn't always better.

would you say its a 47 501 cut? or something else?

[tsunamiboy85]

Snake, any idea whether this would be exclusive to the Tokyo store? It seems that way to me.

[Snake]

colt - closest would be 47 cut with a taper.

Tsunamiboy85 - yeah. Unfortunately this is Tokyo store exclusive. 50 pairs made.

[ranonranonarat]

fuck, wished there was a way we could lay hands on some!

[bluedust]

Thanks Snake , I like 13-13.7 oz denim, I like to wear it comfortable. I care about how it fade more that thickness of fabric.

shameless plug, selling my recently bought FC 1108

It stretches way too much and becoming too loose for me. Now letting this go for another sizing.

[baldy]

got my 1101's in yesterday, so stoked! it doesn't fit as loose as i'd like it to raw but hopefully it won't shrink tooo much

is the WWII repro the one snake linked us to, to vote on the details?

Fullcount is taking a survey to help them determine the details of their next limited WWII jean.

Poll is open till July 20th. One can pick types of denim, the cut, buttons, rivets, color of stitch, back belt loop location, color of painted arc.....etc. Something about 10% off at the end too but the translation tool wasn't clear.

if it is, heres 10% discount for those WWII repros. either one of them is the code couldn't really figure out from the google translator.

S110011 or

S1100LTD

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I wonder how close that denim is the what was used for the BiG contest?

Two odd things.... the WWII 1100's silhouette looks very 1960s. Weird shape choice for a WWII model. And the 0105 is listed as narrow straight. My 0105C isn't narrow or straight. I wonder if there's been a pattern change?

[ranonranonarat]

setterman, the eventual choice of the WWII model turned out to be entirely decided by vote. see 2 posts above from b_F and you can see why they made certain decisions the way they did. on hindsight, its not so much a WWII edition...

not too sure about the 0105/C version though...

[Snake]

The WWII is based on the 1101 cut which is loosely based on the 66 model. Originally, it comes with paper patch and no hidden rivets. FC added the leather patch and hidden rivets later.

As far as the 0105, I think FC just posted the wrong info. It is still the same as the 0105C as far as the cut.

[Guyute]

anymore picture updates?

[popoki]

anyone have the fleece denim? I just ordered mine and will get some pics once they get there. Had BiG hem 2 inches off since I feel like it'll look cleaner on grey denim without too much stacking.

[oomslokop]

lookin forward to yr pics! was always wonderin how theyd look on a real person .

I seem to always look at a clock at right-on 11:08 every morning. I think a higher power is trying to tell me to cop Full Counts.

I want a pair of the made in china joints..probably won't know the difference. Fc denim is my overall all-time favorite

[almostnice]

according to BIG,the waist is made up to 36,so i reckon no luck for you...

[setterman]

the other night I got to bug to get out a pair of 1108C I had bought and only worn once or twice. I'd lost some weight since getting them, and they fit much better (though still lower waisted than I like). I'd forgotten how dark and inky the contest denim is, nearly looking black. is the standard FC denim that dark?

[SLAB]

the contest denim is definitely darker than the regular FC denim; I remember when i saw my pair first time; they looked almost black
