I don’t wear these 1947 jeans as much anymore but they’re looking great. I’ve the last round of repairs on the fabric and stitching fixes, i leave them as only occasional wear so they don’t get too messed up.

It also showcases a prototype for the forthcoming Sugarcane 1942 release.

I’ll try and get around to taking better pics but here are my 47’s after about a year and a half of wear.

I guess DIY rivets are the new runoff threads

Dug these out of the closet recently, the type 3 black denim.  Great pair of black jeans

Just got this SC 91-B Leepro in and haven’t been able to find much info on the product code SC10716A. There’s no care tag with the materials, but the blanket lining feels like there is some polyester in it. Giving it a hot wash right now, will post more pics when it’s dry.

Don't know if it's just me but wow that's a gorgeous 91-B lol

I don’t know about this model but there’s an M-series Storm Rider on Yahoo Auctions where the wool liner is given as 80/20 wool/nylon. I would guess that this would be similar. 
 

it’s a great looking jacket though!

[julian-wolf]

^ On what basis would you guess that this would be similar? They’re very different models, and made 30 years apart…

Mostly just a poor guess in the absence of any other information. There are a few real blacker lined Lee 191-LB jackets on various market places but unfortunately none of them have any composition tags. It could be a wool/rayon blend too since rayon was popular in that historical era and rayon blends have a distinctive hand feel from 100% wool (usually a little smoother than wool or wool/nylon)
 

I did find a really poor photo of the SC composition tag for this repro. Unfortunately I can’t read Japanese and it’s too blurry for me to make out the numbers but I dropped it here anyway in case anyone has better luck decoding it
