Warehouse

[mlyngard]

I missed that one! Bugger!!

I'm not surprised they more or less stopped carrying Japanese denim. They were taking a pasting on it.Pity 'cos actually their full prices weren't bad and they were the only ones in the UK to carry Warehouse AFAIK.

That's a shame. Good website, great product line. I was really rooting for them...

[SLAB]

what are the measurements? i might be interested.

tag size 28; actual measurements also 28"

[DocBlue]

well, might be throwing my 1001xx 15th on the market.

even though the waist shrank to a good waist size after a warm machine wash, the hip flare is currently too much to bear for me. Ill give them another try to see if i can get used to this kind of fit...

shame on ya

ah. never mind. much too small. my 800s shrank after a wash (as One Wash, supposedly they were laundered for maximum shrinkage), and now I find them uncomfortably tight in the thighs.

32 -10characters-

Thinking about picking up a pair of the 1001xx. I find myself moving toward fuller cuts. A sign of maturity, I guess.

[jaspar]

Dubbleworks x Beams+. I couldn't find that these had been posted yet. Cut is called a 505-fit, but looks to just be 660's (or DW760 in Memphis cotton), as Warehouse tends to recycle cuts for collaborations (rinsed BIG D5 = JCrew 484), not make new ones:

Hard to trust S, M, L sizing, but I dig the fit and the embroidery-in-lieu-of-patch. But the price?! 27300 jpy is $35 more than the most expensive 15th Anniversary style...

[lostinthesupermarket]

That's Beams for ya.....

I got these pants about 4 and a half years ago, a spot on replica of a late 1870's - 80's arrow head stitch pant. I will take more photos tomorrow.

[lostinthesupermarket]

Those are fantastic....+rep.

[Sansome1877]

Those are fantastic....+rep.

THANKS!! I wasn't real careful on how I washed them, I think they have seen the washing machine about 40 times.

[tvshooter]

[Sansome1877]

Not sure, shrink to fit... I know that.

[entertainment!]

Sansome, were those based on an original you supplied?

No, this one was not supplied by me.

[Snake]

Sansome1877 - Those duckdigger 1900 looks great. I always kick myself for not getting the 1930.

I have no idea, are these not available any more(meaning the dart stitch pants of mine and the 1930 that your talking about?

[Snake]

Yeah, Warehouse no longer makes them. They came out five years ago along with the 10th Anniversary jeans. The duckdigger denim is also different from the regular 1001 & 1000 denim. They were based on Boss of the Road jeans. There were five different models 1900, 1920, 1930, 1940, and 1950. These jeans were what made me a fan of Warehouse.

[aho]

^lol Snake is just as obsessed with Warehouse as I...And of course, I was fiending after the same pair since I didn't get them either...couldn't +rep but I'll get you when I can!

So they called the one that I have 1900? The original jean was made before the Levi rivet patent ran up. Most likely was modeled after a 1880's jean.

Me too. The detailing on them is beautiful.....I especially love the coin pocket. It's like a tiny version of the back pocket of rnr's Deadgrass pants.

I missed out on 'em too.....I'm surprised and a bit disappointed they didn't do anything similar for the 15th anniversary.

To be fair, they are pursuing a few new Billiken Man products so in a way it balances out?

15th Anniversary 1001XX with 2 vigorous hot soaks (initial and recent) with zero wear, TTS sz.30:

Can't help but chuckle when I think how much I stressed over whether to size down or not...To say the least, I am very satisfied with the fit and these will get mixed into the rotation when my SC1966's and WH800's get more wear.

Post soak measurements for sz.30 after two soaks (inches):

Waist: 14.9

Front: 11 3/8

Back: 13.75

Thigh: 11.25

Knee: 8 7/8

Leg Opening: 8.5

Inseam: 33

Versus my TTS 800's in the same size (30) as posted a week back:

To be honest the 800's are a bit uncomfortable in the waist for me but I hope to stretch them out some more as they are getting the brunt of wear out of all my pairs lately...

[Snake]

15th Anniversary 1001XX at 5 months. 1 soak and 1 wash at 4 months.

^Dear Lord, Snake! Hope my 1003xx turn out 1/2 as well.

It's been a long week at work, so I haven't been home at all for days. Here are some teasers until good pics.

My Contest jeans, started 11/6/07, almost three years now. They were worn almost everyday for about 14 months, then I started rotating them once or twice a week for a year, while I was working on RRL's. When the RRL's started looking good, these and the RRL's split even time. Then I moved on to Sams and they both got some rest until the hottest summer ever, and they were worn on cool days (<90F). Overall, I'd say about 2 years of wear.

[lostinthesupermarket]

Man....so beautiful.....repped.

Please get those framed. They're perfect.

[wahwho11]

^why frame them? wear them...
