Proper selvedge jeans

^cheers all, I've ordered both sizes and will return one pair after much deliberation in front of the mirror at home. Hopefully it will say on a label someone where if they are sanforized? I know Edwin used to be but I don't know about these new styles.

Was just referring to my own recent experience.
Do you need tips for anything besides denim? Where abouts are you going?

What's the general opinion on Jacob Cohen jeans?

I used to sell these when I was 16 or so at a local designer menswear store, they used to fly out the store.

Price was roughly 250 - maybe 350ish

I always really wanted a pair but never had the money. Anyone got a pair?

My ed-55s shrank a lot in leg length - more than I'd bargained for...

They have no place here - go and sit on the naughty step and start at the beginning of this thread.

No lycra, no fucking stingray patches and quirky linings - it's called "Proper Selvedge Jeans" for a reason.

I'm thinking about buying a pair of sugar cane okinawa jeans to memorate my visit there. They have a python patch. Should I avoid and file them with cohen? Or are they kosher?

Cohen and kosher? Lol.

Sugar Cane make proper denim. Jacob Cohen doesn't.

Huh?

These jeans were absolutely gorgeous quality, Japanese denim, horse-hair label and the pockets just felt amazing when on.

What am I missing?

Ha ha - go to bed with a dram, wake up with a porpoise.

If nothing else, pre-used denim is stupid

They're just expensive Diesel Jeans.

Like @withered_preacher says, pre-used denim is stupid.

Unless you're gonna buy it super cheap and dye it black... #thetonslenway

I thought teenslain was dead?

Isn't it all about #Euroldman and channeling your inner early Slade?

I'm not doing that again... I looked like an old lady...

Vile...

Amaze.

Jacob Cohen Jeans are rivaling the most expensive jeans in the world… Or are they? Worn by the likes of David Beckham, everybody who’s anybody in St. Tropez has a pair. And yes, if you wear them, who knows, you could become a superstar too. They’re seriously cool. We’re talking, throw-a-pair-on-and-you’re-instantly-cool kind of cool.

And on that basis, I'm out.

Nice guitar, shame about just about everything else in that picture... 😬🍕😭⚡👉👌

I concur.

St Tropez?

Sweet Jesus.

Teenslain looks like a zombie Jean Paul Gaultier

Oh how the mighty have fallen....

Anyone want a pair of selvedge Levis 501's?

36W 32L, I have lost a fair bit of timber and they were always a bit big for me anyway. Never washed, worn literally twice.

Denim is quite soft and lightweight, would be pretty good for summer not sure on weight, I would guess about 12oz

£20 quid collected from Forest Hill or Lewisham

Are they 1955's shape ? may be interested, can any one tell from the pocket?

Had to look up Jacob Cohen Jeans as I'd never heard of them... £570 for a pair of god-awful purple-stitched fuckin' purple pony skin label monstrosities... and not even selvedge? Anyone who buys these is a cuntbag of the highest order

You don't like them then?
