Not sure if you're joking. If not, I'm not sure about that. I just look at clothes a lot.
Ironically, I've been trying to track down some Lee 101Bs recently but had no success. Also been trying to find some LVC 1933s in Cone Mills denim and can't find any anywhere either. This is why, IMO, Warehouse are the only attainable option left. They're pretty much the only people who are still making very, very faithful repro's. Rather than 'inspired by a 1947 Levi's 501 with a few changes made' blah blah. Full Count are a close second but even they've strayed away from actual year references recently.
Sugar Cane have just made a MiUSA 1947 501 actually. In Cone Mills no less. Tempted to pick them up but a 1947 isn't really as spacious in the top block as I'd like. I also think denim just isn't the best fabric for trousers in SoCal outside of a three week period in late December.
