Any denim jackets on anyones radar?

still want the iron heart lefty but also considering warehouse’s latest

 

[KingJamesTheFifth]

either something like this or a finecreek leather is on my radar for future winter

Not this season tho , haven’t even been outside like that

Iron Heart Split Steer Modified Type III Jacket - Black

When we saw a sample of an Iron Heart split steer cowhide Type III jacket we could not wait until the production run was done so we could get these into our stores. These jackets are finally here and they look and feel just perfect. It's a modified Type III pattern with hand pockets done up in...

I was just looking at Iron Heart jeans and for one of them it says:

• This denim has not gone through a post weave skewing process, so you will get leg twist with wear

What does that mean? 19oz left hand twill if that matters.

 

[KingJamesTheFifth]

so leg twist is when the material in the leg skews over time from wear
Basically the selvedge ID Thats in the outer side of the leg eventually will twist towards the front

essentially the side seem starts to peek from the side towards the front too

some people hate it
Some people love it
It’s like holes and fades.. it’s very specifically a YOU thing

These Orslow 107s just came in the mail are perfect for daily wear with sneakers. They’ll be my go tos and I’ll save the 105s for wear with boots and larger shirts/jackets. Probably gonna taper them a bit too.

that jacket is tough.
I can’t really pull off leathers but fine creek makes some phenomenal stuff

 

[newgodflow]

you must be new here....

also did not realize iron hearts had giant leg openings. will they be less giant after washing (if anyone out there has a pair)

Probably not, most IH is sanforized if I remember correctly....

 

[a-friend]

you must be new here....

oh yea

Favourite Levi's number(s)? 501 & 512 for me.

501 straight jeans and 501 93' but not tried all cuts at all

 

[KingJamesTheFifth]

sugarcane flannel and sugarcane denim today.. had the jeans just about a year .. wear em about once a week
only soaked em cold once ..


The jean cut is based from the original Levi Strauss classic 1947 XX 501 but they have been given a contemporary revision in cut: the front and back rises are lowered, the legs tapered and narrowed even more than the Type II 1947 style, and the seat taken in, creating a slim appearance from the knee down, though they are not in any way a pencil-leg jean style

WHATS FOR LUNCH?

 

[davinelulinvega]

Shirt looks good, about Levi's releases of old cuts, do you people recommend it, and if yes, which years please ? I'm lost

 

[hennessy beach]

This might be the banger I was looking for

 

[perfectchaosrei]

Shoulda never walked into self edge....grabbed some PBJs today. Between these, the iron hearts I recently grabbed, and the APCs I have...should be good on jeans for the next couple of decades

 

[newgodflow]

KingJames, sugar cane released a slim tapered version of the 47 if you’re looking for that. The cut is the 2021 and Self Edge is carrying it. I heard the fit is similar to the Resolute 710 which I’ve worn in the past and the fit is perfect...

[Shaunaldo25]

Trying out a looser fit, normally go for Grim Tim with Nudie.

 

[davinelulinvega]

Want Levi's to release more colors for 501, need some brown ones but still with this cut

2 first ones look nice, Pepe jeans

Lmk how u like these. I'm prolly a Grim Tim for life guy but it took me a while to even give up on the lean dean.

I'll be sticking with Grim Tims. These are too loose/wide for my liking although enjoying having the option of a looser pair. Got a fresh pair of Grim Tims once I decide to retire my worn pair.

Do y’all have issues with the buttons on your fly breaking with the higher end brands? Had two buttons break on some Gap Selvedge and was just wondering if this was common.

I was able to find some replacements on Amazon for hella cheap, so I’m good for when my other ones break, though.

 

[newgodflow]

I’ve never had it happen to me but I’ve seen it happen to others, most top end brands would send a replacement button or fix it for you.

never. Not Even on my old Uniqlo selvedge from way back when

 

[KingJamesTheFifth]

Never had a metal button break before .. never even considered it

 

[shack314]

Thanks. I guess that shows why I was able to get those Gap ones for so cheap.

But the new buttons I bought won’t break since they have two pieces and one screws into the other. The original Gap ones have this little hook thing with a very thin piece of metal that connects the button to the denim.
