Not yet with you, right?

Not yet... my man's waiting on the original thread from Toyo for the hem... no rush

[MJF9]

Not unexpectedly, there are variations in the arcs even in the short period the "1942 model" was produced...

The You Tube link has probably been shared here before... but just in case...

@MJF9 The top pair of og 1942 501XX are the ones owned by the man from Foremost l think. The ones in the book are Larry's (Hellers Cafe) but there is a third pair, or was l believe.  Look into recent pages in the vintage thread to see that unwashed pair of 36x36 so called 42's but with a silver buckle. They were obviously sold to someone a while ago and it is possible that they are no longer raw and are now in use but it was Foremost l think who sold that pair. As l've already mentioned the silver buckle is the only fly in the ointment as every other detail seems to match the 42's criteria. 

Whilst you are waiting for your desired hem thread, are you having any popular pocket design(s) added? I have chosen Larry's design but can't verify here. Send you a pm in the week when lm back home.

Hoosier stocking all the super denim collectibles???

@JMS I pre-ordered through him (that pair are mine :)). Not sure if he's getting extra stock but definitely worth giving him a shout mate
