Lee 101

[den1mhead]

@madmonday I guess this is me trying to keep it simple 

The penny loafers are Rockports and TBH I dont have the box anymore and as a consequence I'm uncertain of the leather.

Great fit and what a steal, den1mhead! Congrats! How is Lee's 19 oz denim?

Hang on a minute I thought you were a changed man after the world tour!? @den1mhead

[Black Orchid]

My sentiments exactly… I couldn't bloody believe it!

I am trying, really trying, to stay in the same jeans for more than one day (SDA ducks) . . . honest 

[den1mhead]

@den213 I've taken a few pics of the Lee 19oz jeans;

A bit of info on the denim printed on the pocket bag

Felled seams

Different coloured selvedge id which, I imagine, means the jeans are made from two separate rolls of selvedge denim?

Literally only tried the 19oz Lee's on as I am trying to wear the same pair of jeans, SDA ducks at the moment, for a prolonged period of time. Inspired by the World Tour experience. However, as spitfiredealer has already observed, I am finding the experience challenging 

[Dion]

Thanks for the pics! The denim looks nice!

Nope.  Perfectly easy to have one selvedge ID on one side of the loom and another on the other….

[Chris]

Is that common?  I always assumed that mills used the same color on both sides, so that it didn't matter which end was up when the rolls are stacked.

Yeah, yeah, I know what happens when you assume…

Lee's 101 Z available in 19 oz now. Still remember how great the fit is.

@den1mhead is that the 101Z 19oz that @den213 posted? If so, what size do you have and could you measure waist, front/back rise, thigh, knee and hem? I would truly be grateful.

I hate that UK Lee doesn't just ship to the US, can't even get the 101 collection(the good stuff…)

Anyone want to buy a 19oz 101Z for me? I'll pay of course

The Lee shop in Covent Garden is right near my office. Happy to pick you up a pair at some point when I am back. Drop me a pm and let me know.

@Jordonf9
No they aren't the 101Z 19oz that den213 posted; http://uk.lee.com/product/101-z/L9531941#
They are 101 Riders 19oz; http://www.cultizm.com/product_info.php?info=p6959_LEE-101-Rider-Japanese-Fabric-19oz.html
I cant remember tag size and cant see marked on jeans.
actual measurements are; waist 36, fr 11, br 15, thigh 12, knee 8.5, hem 7.25, inside leg 33
See pictures below

I think those are the last year's 101 Rider (Slim Fit). The 101 Z have a more straight fit.

They are definitely the Lee 101 Rider 19oz slim tapered fit but from what year I cant confirm . . .

I would take you up on that offer @Cutlasshound if I could only find a solid size chart to know they fit me right. Lee only has the piece of crap useless charts online….what assholes.

[Dion]

Yeah, that sucks. If it helps: I'm doing a W38 in every IH bottom and the 101 Z fits perfectly in a W36.

[Dion]

@Jordonf9 And btw Cultizm stocks the 19 oz 101 Z and they do ship internationally:

Maybe they can help with sizing, too?

(Oops, I think I should have posted my first ever post (http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=2.msg502638#msg502638) here instead…)

Hi guys, hope you don’t mind me resurrecting this topic: I’m looking to get my first pair of IHs, currently sporting a pair of the 101Z 19oz mentioned above.

To anyone with experience of both the 101Z fit, and the 634/666 fits: I was wondering whether you had any input as to what might be the closest IH fit to said Lees? Bearing in mind: my 101s have loosened considerably over the nine months I’ve had them, and I’d quite like a final fit that echoes the feeling they had when they were new, post-first-soak…

Here are the current measurements of the (tagged 34) 101Z
(copied-pasted from first post mentioned above):

Waist: 37 (there’s definitely some spare room in there!)
Front rise: 11.75
Rear rise: 16.5 (happy to shave an inch here)
Hem: 8.3
Thigh: 13
Knee: 9.5 (oh boy, the knee-bags drove me CRAZY, I was so frustrated)
Inseam: 31.5 (I was surprised how much was lost in the length; this is too short (I’m 6’2”), I like to cuff, so inseam of next pair not a prob)

I’m drawn to the 666S-21 and the 666SII (for the smart cuffs)…

Again, any input greatly welcomed!
