Warehouse

[Sugar Mountain]

My Fullcount hit the washing machine last night and I'm officially into my 1001XX for the next six months (I know you've all been waiting for this with baited breath!) Fit pics once the creases have set in. 

[Rightyow77]

Need a size down in my 1000XX if anyone is will to trade PM me. Need a 28

[aho]

Well guys, this is it...I picked up a pair of 15th Anniversary 1001ZXX via Suto Corp (a steal at 6500yen) and these will be my main pair moving forward. There's som wear but I'll forego a wash for maybe 6 months to set them in myself before hitting the water again.

Yup, that's a zipper fly:

Offset belt loop

arcs

 

This makes it 4 pairs in this denim that I own, but the first time I'll finally be able to wear the right size. Post wash and I'm already remembering why this is my favorite by WH....

[Broark]

Great looking pair aho, wear them well!

I'm really thinking about Warehouse for my next pair, just unsure what cuts and denim options to consider since I'm completely new to the brand and what they have to offer. And also I'm not sure what shops have the most offerings out there.

[redragon]

Great cop at that price Aho.

Still searching for my pairs, hopefully soon....

[Sugar Mountain]

Very nice pickup Aho. Today is my first full day wearing my 15th anniversary 1001XX so I fully understand your love for this denim!

 

Broark - you could do worse than check out the different cuts available from BIG. Not sure of current stock but there is the 660 if you want slim, the 800 if you want a slim straight, 700 if you want a cinch back repro and the 1001 and 1000 if you want a late 40s to early 50s style. Hard to go wrong.

[Broark]

Sugar Mountain: Thanks for the little rundown as far as cuts go, I think I'm interested into the 1001 or 1000 since I've never really ventured into full on repo territory yet.

Not really sure what it is but the color on a lot of new Warehouse denim looks really unique.

[setterman]

Unless you blow the sizing, you can't go wrong with any of them. I'd recommend the 800 as a first pair, and I think it's a model that should be in everyone's closet (it's not that slim). I've got four pairs of jeans I'm working on, when a couple of them get worn in to where I want them, I need to get another pair if 800s.

[Broark]

This might be a silly question but does the 800 only come in one wash?

Yes.  Don't worry though, if you're looking for lots of contrast, you can still get it with OW jeans.

Did you really pick those up for only $63?!

 

I highly regret not grabbing a pair of those when they came out. IIRC, they were only on Warehouse's website for like a week.  What did they make, 300 pairs?  

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yahoo auction is your friend

 

re the WH800: they stopped offering the raw version 2-3 years ago IIRC. But I thought I saw the raw version back in the webshop just recently. Could be wrong though of course

I usually don't go with one-wash models as I prefer to soak them myself but it definitely wouldn't stop me from buying a pair.

Right now I'm just waiting on Klax-on to see if they got my order on a pair of Strike Gold 2105s, been a couple days and haven't heard anything yet.

Then I might go grab the 800, looks like a very nice cut.

It was really a steal...I could tell the seller wasn't a denimhead and he mostly sells BAPE type clothing. Strategically, he didn't tag it well either as it's apparently rare for people to search for "1001ZXX"

 

Not sure how many pairs were made but they sold out quick on their website. A few shops carried them as well but they were a lot more limited than the 1001XX's.

Oh man, size 36 right there! Just debating between the 800 and one of the 1000/1 cuts. And I'm waiting for my Klax-on confirmation. Too much money tied up in denim!

[Sugar Mountain]

BIG also has the 2012 version of the 1001XX in size 36 which is the last version before they changed the cut to the 'new 2012'. The so-called Banner Denim is awesome so do keep that one in mind too. Sorry for making the decision harder!

[Broark]

Ah man, you guys are killing me. That was the pair I was looking at on BiG, the denim sounds really interesting. Any examples of some well faded pairs in that variety?

[Rightyow77]

Broak send Klax-on an email, they should reply right away did that for my order.

[Broark]

I sent one this morning, around 9 AM Texas time. I'm sure they'll get around to it, they're pretty good.

A cross post from the BiGxSuFu 660 contest jean thread:

 

 

Figured I'd give a long overdue update on my contest 660s. They're coming up on 6 years now, but I haven't really worn these over the past year very much. Before that they were in rotation with some Skulls, Samurais, and Uniqlos.

[Broark]

Man, those look awesome!
Really want to get my hands on a pair of Warehouse denim.

Still waiting for Klax-on, kind of weird that I haven't heard anything from them. 

[Sugar Mountain]

Broak, quite clearly the hands of fate are pointing you towards Warehouse and away from the Strike Gold!

[Broark]

I think you might be right Sugar Mountain! I think Warehouse might be a bit more wearable year round here in Texas as well.

[ThinFinn]

still could kick myself for selling my pair a few years back...fml! -.-

Last time i checkout an item from their site..it took almost a month period for them to reply

[Broark]

It's weird because I've ordered from them before and it was a good experience, no problems whatsoever.

Not sure what the issue is now, at this rate I'll go ahead and get some Warehouse!

[aho]

Washed the 15th 1001ZXX's to begin wearing them...The previous owner had some basic wear in them already and my "first wash" brought out further fading. sugar_mountain, looks like I'll have a head start

 

First pics are a bit overexposed but the last is a bit truer (they're still plenty dark though)

compared to my old pair of 1001XX I outgrew

can't beat an offset beltloop + arcs (unless there was a tab too)

[whackedout]
