How should I go about sizing the 1947 501's or 1967 505s for a slim new standard type fit.

Fear not I will be carrying LVC for spring 10 when everything launches again in the states.

I will start with the first jean made buy levis and go up to the newest 501.
Europe/Japan has always have a bigger interest in Levis than the states that's why the LVC division was moved to brussels.
If you have any questions about the spring 10 collection check my blog in a couple weeks

I will have some sick ass pics for you with a little history lesson.
Best,

Very interesting. Know if you'll be carrying the 1944s?

Are both the 1947 501s and 1967 505s raw?
How do these run?

theom- · Sep 24, 2009

the 505's are sanforized i believe. 505's bit smaller than tagged and the fit is slim. Curious about the rise though.

'47s are raw shrink-to-fit and run true to size (pre-soak). My '47s are tagged 34x36 (I'm a 33 or 34 waist) and, after two washes in 9 months, now measure about 33.25 in the waist.

How about the LVC 517's? Anyone know where one can procure a pair of these?

I have a pair that are slightly too big in the waist and I've been looking for a pair of 30 or 31 waist for months now with no luck. They aren't selvage so I guess that turns a lot of people off around here, but they're made with beautiful denim nonetheless.

Where the hell can I get these?

Wrong, the 505's are true to size; the rise is medium (like 10.5); have you ever actually had these jeans?

What is the slimmer of the 1947 501s and 1967 505s?

robbie · Sep 24, 2009

I don't have any experience with the 1947's, but the 1967 bought in my TRUE waist size are very slim in the thigh, when sit they are tight.

I quoted exactly what someone from cultizm told me. They said the waist ran slightly small.

Can anybody provide any tips on sizing STF.
I wear a size 30 in RRL straight lets and low straights.
Should I go for the 32s?
