Warehouse

Thanks, MF!

I guess I won't be seeing radically different fading on these compared to the rest of my jeans after all, apart from these being sanforized.

I feel rather silly now having justified this purchase as the first LHT pair in my collection!

[Maynard Friedman]

You'll just have to buy another pair then and ensure they really are LHT this time!

Warehouse 1001SXX after 2 little soaks. That Banner Denim is just great, love the texture and feel. And it shrinks a lot.

 

[SLAB]

great fit on those BF; did u size TTS?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I took size 34 which is...well...nowaydays 1 - 1,5 sizes down. 

But they measured 37" raw

[Flash]

Thanks everybody! Hope the "hungry bum" will go away soon

 

@pomata: I bought them from Vintage Paradise. You can buy from them via Facebook, Rakuten or through Email.

 

@hog: yeah...you know. The way an addict behaves

 

@Bobbo: that denim is really nice!

b_F -- the jeans look great.  Could you enlighten this newb as to the meaning of the S in SXX?  Also, when I try to find them on-line, I see jeans with very different looking arcs.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

The might S stand for "simplified" (if I remember correctly) and that refers to the WW2-era Levi's with the simplified details. As these have no cinch anymore but still a crotch rivet (and all the other rivets) they might be a transition model.

Or they are simply a product of Warehouse's fantasy.

 

About the arcs: well, no you know why seam rippers have been invented

[JohnM]

Ah, these are selectively ripped, b_F designed arcs, with an assist from Levi's!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Exactly Several years ago Warehouse received a pair with similar styled arcs. You can do the same thing with your Fullcount arcs if you want to and just remove the bottom part

[JohnM]

b_F, if you get a chance to post measurements on these, I'd be curious to know how they compare to my size 34 800:

 

            Pre/Post Soak

Waist     36.0"/35.0"

FR         12.75/12.0

BR         16.75/16.5

Thigh     13.25/12.75

Knee        9.5/9.25

Inseam   35.5/34.25

[beautiful_FrEaK]

S1001SXX Size 34

 

Waist     37"

FR         12.75

BR         17

Thigh     13.6

Knee      10.1

LO           9.3

Inseam   35.1

 

 

 

I just measured waist and inseam after the first soak:

waist     34.5

inseam  32.75

 

 

And for Flash, the 900s are live!

From what I'm seeing on Rakuten, the 1000xx runs a bit larger in almost all measurements than the 1001xx. I'm thinking about sizing down one in the 1000xx in comparison to my 1001xx measurements to compensate, hopefully still retaining the looser fit. Any suggestions for or against this?

[JohnM]

Thanks b_F -- that's some serious shrinkage.

Haven't paid attention the measurements of the other sizes, but I'm a 36 in the 1003XX, and would go with the same size in the nearly identical 1000 (1000xx), and a 38 in the 1001.  

 

For those not on instagram, recent fit picture of 1003XX and LVC 506XX.  

 

[cmo]

Are those 900 measurements raw or OW

Having finally read the product info, this model is indeed meant to be a transitional model from late 30's into WWII. Not sure why I didn't immediately think that when all the signs were there but props to b-F for knowing and also for picking them up! I'd want a pair if I didn't already have 1001's (same denim)...

[beautiful_FrEaK]

^ha!

You can't imagine how proud I feel right now

[PeterParker]

Goddamn, I miss my pair of 700. I loved the looser fit on them, and the wear was at that perfect stage where they were the most comfortable jeans. It makes me sad thinking about all the places I traveled in those, a lot harder loss to swallow than the Lees I had just bought.

I try not to think that I lost all the jeans I've worn in the past five years in one day, having thoughts of seppuku.
