FYI: All these FS posts are ban worthy, per the rules.

Passing this on as I've been called out/guilty in the past. FS and eBay links in sig are OK, but posts out of B&S are not allowed.

Does anyone know where I can find a Blessing of the Motorcycles tee in XS from the recent collection? They got them in at a shop near my place but they sold out of that one pretty much right away.

We've started to get in our Fall LVC shipment. Here are a few of my favorites of the shirts:

7811180512_eec84ef225_z.jpg

1950's Shorthorn Shirt Blanket

7811171974_03160decb3_z.jpg

1920's Longhorn Shirt

7811155940_d4289751b0_z.jpg

1920's Two Pocket Sunset Shirt (ABSOLUTE BEAUTY!)

7810879518_34e2ceb397_z.jpg

1955 Sawtooth Shirt Crank Wash (Incredible detail and soft hand, but this guy's a bit pricey)

We also picked up the 1978 501 (small "e"). Does anyone have any experience with this fit/style? I didn't place the order on these, but they definitely weren't was I was expecting fit-wise from a 70s jean.

I like this season's jackets, especially the Donkey, the Sack, the Box, and the 1920s wool coat. I've seen the Donkey and Box on line but not the other two.

I just purchased some 47 LVC from my levi's store. SLIM fitting around thighs and calves, even at my rigid/non stretch waist size of 34. I'm usually a 33 at stretch material and 34 with selvedge.

An interesting thing I found was that the waist is a low rise and a lot more roomier. My first pair of LVCs and pretty stoked :)

**EDIT** For some reason, my posts aren't showing up. Anyway, they have a lower rise on ME, much different than my 511/520/508 pairs. I would call them a low rise based on that I'm not sagging my pants and the button is lower than where it usually is compared to my other pairs.

Werid..posts aren't going thru.

Anyway, I found that the LVC 47's on ME, sit low like a low rise. Much different than how my 511s/520s/508s sit. And yes, I'm not sagging at all. :)

What? My 47 is not low rise at all. The few 511s that I have sit way lower than the 47.

I don't think you have a "real" '47 repro.
