I'll be in Alghero for the wedding of a very good friend. End of May though. 

I love Sardinia.. we'll be back there in July.. last time we visited we stayed here in Teulada

This time we're up in the hills cos it's the school hols so the prices are insane and i would rather rent a whole house and drive to the beach than rent a small apartment on the beach with next to no outdoor space for twice the price.. +we have a near by grotto

If you get the chance.. try the mullet roe, the (fresh) dry cured stuff rather than the stuff in jars.. it's a Sardinian delicacy

..anyway, sorry for the interjection.. back to jeans..

So; I ended up taking the plunge and getting some 15th anniversary 1001x’s from a seller on Grailed. They had them listed for $375 with tax despite the seller not knowing the model number or the fact they were the 15th anniversarry version. But I talked them down to $200 shipped. They were a Malaysian seller that had tons of other designer goods, so they seemed happy to push them out.

 

I got some mixed advice on the forum about if this was a good idea, and I’m still a bit mixed on if I made the right move to be honest. Fit wise, I am SUPER happy. Maybe not super flattering in most people’s opinion, but it feels like a classic straight fit to me. Don’t judge my work from home outfit too hard lol.

 

My biggest issue is that color wise, I do wish I could have got these when they were a bit darker. But I will say I’ve never had a pair of jeans that looked quite like this. The weft looks slightly dusty. Not sure if that’s by design or if that’s just what happens when jeans are kept in a closet in Malaysia for like 10 years. But it any case, it’s interesting to me.

 

I’ll give these a few wears and see what happens. At the worst, I now know I love the cut of the 1001’s. At best I fall in love with these. I’n any case, I spent too much to back out of these now!

 

UPDATE: After wearing them for a day, I love the fit SO much that I have opted to sell these (and a couple other pants) and invest a brand new pair so that I can see the journey of these from start to finish.

Fit is great. I wouldn't worry about anything else. That's what really matters in the end. Good fit = more wear. More wear with great denim like that will give you a pair to behold. Enjoy!

Hi, I got a pair of warehouse 1001 from eBay, unfortunately they run a lot bigger than the given measurements suggested.

Unfortunately I can't find much information on these, when where these made, how much would they shrink, why the XX is missing...

I'd be happy if anyone got information on these. I am considering to let em go for trade... unless they don't shrink much.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I think (but I'm no Warehouse expert) that these are a pair of the "new" 1001 they introdcued with the Banner Denim and I think that was in 2013? A modified fit to the older 1001XX from before 2013. They produced this model for several years but the 1001 got changed 1-2 years ago again. AFAIK.

@beautiful_FrEaK Great, many thanks so far.

[Jared_Lee]

The only problem I see with @beautiful_FrEaK's assessment is the back belt loop. I have the 1001 from 2013 and it does not have the XX designation. It shares the red bartack stitch for the "tab" as well. It does not have the offset back belt loop though.

[Sympathy-For-The-Denim]

many thanks and killer fading btw!

Sorry to keep posting questions, but has anybody heard about the Beams + Warehouse “Sekohan” order fair that happened in like November last year? Someone is selling a pair on Yahoo JP. If this is the banner denim, I might scoop these up…

1001xx 25th anniversary 50s.. what a mouthful 

Color is somewhere in between these two here

Don’t know how much longer the arcs will last

[specialchild]

Those look INCREDIBLE. Excuse my lack of knowledge, but what’s the difference between regular and 25th 1001s? DSB treatment?

 

edit: Nvm. 50’s are banner denim. Turns out if you read the forum for 2 hours straight, a lot of questions get answered.

Good on you. That’s what we keep trying to tell folks rather than ask the same old question,

On a genuine note, it’s super interesting to invest time into digging into the archives and seeing how things change over time, seeing reactions to the 15th/25th anniversary drops as they are actually happening, etc. And of course a good amount of names are still posting here 10 years later!

Warehouse 800 purchased from SESF and worn for 14 months. Washed every 6-8 weeks. I’ve owned Ironheart, Strike Gold, Evisu, Flathead, and Samurai and this is hands down my favorite pair.

[Cold Summer]

Awesome jeans, I'm looking forward to putting more wear into mine (currently at ~4 months) after the Indigo Invitational contest is over next year. I agree, these are some of the best I've worn - denim is dark, just the right amount of texture - and the fit is almost certainly the best I've ever worn. WH gets more attention for their repro-inspired pairs but the 800 really is a great choice for somebody who likes jeans like the Levis 511 but wants a superior version.

Sorry for yet another post. I’m about to pick up a pair of raw 1001xx’s from Hinoya, but I’m unsure about sizing. I have a pair of used size 32 1001xx 15th anniversary that (I think came as one washed originally) that fit perfect. They’ve been washed a couple more times. I’m tempted to get the same size, but everything I’ve read says that raw 1001xx’s stretch completely back to raw size after time, which is a tick above 33.5”.

 

I would prefer to not size down because I don’t want these to be too slim, but would these get too big in the waist if I ideally don’t want them to stretch above 16.5” ?

 

edit: just bought a pair of size 32. Size charts seem to be different everywhere. Least risky decisions seems to be just stay with the size I already know worked once before.

1001xx 25th 50s just got a wash, the denim looks great in person 

[goodrain]

@scooby Same model as these? Good potential...

 

[scooby]

@goodrain the 25th anniversary model uses the banner denim

[goodrain]

ahh my bad I got 15 and 25 mixed up, your pair looks great!

[roomtemplacroix]

brief photo update on my 1001xx i’ve been wearing on and off since august 2021.

[roomtemplacroix]

is anyone here able to give shrinkage insight on the 3001 longhorn shirt? self edge says it shrinks half a size after a wash. on the other hand blue owl says it is "cut in a regular fit with extra length to account for shrinkage." i'm thinking i would be a 36 if it isn't shrinking half a size. if it is shrinking half a size then a 38 would still come out quite a bit too big on me i think. anyone here have experience with it?

[shredwin_206]

Anyone give advice how much stretch/shrink they’re getting in the 1920s Lee repros? 
I’m a 34. Wondering if I could make a 32 or 36 work since long sold out.

@shredwin_206

Ive got a 32 Edwin. Measurements: 

Warehouse given measurements are one-wash. Whereas mine were raw, have been washed twice (40c), and line dried. I’ve looked for Junky’s original raw measurements but they’ve fallen off the internet. 

Before I measured I was thinking the waist has a bit of give, and the measurements back that up. 

Cheers, Tom

edit: just remembered. Hot soaked them in the bath when I first got them, so should have all the shrinkage out

I’ve had a 38 and a 40. The 38 was a little too small for me once I washed it and the 40 was too big and too long. They run long for sure, supposed to tuck in. 

[shredwin_206]

@unders well I have my first pair of warehouse en route. Found a needle in a hay stack. A pair of the triple stitch cowboy pants in a 34 barely worn!
