Extreme tapers are terrible if you’re tall with a slimmer waist. I’m a 31 waist with size 13 feet and can’t even get my feet through the leg opening of relaxed tapered pants

TSG fabrics are probably my favorite of all the more exotic textured denims. Their hardware is pretty cool too. It's a shame that their pants cuts tend to be super slim and low rise.

TSG sweats are pretty short too so a shorter jacket makes sense

SC ones are kind of long too based on what I have heard. Freewheelers make one of the shortest. There is a new more period specific Denime 224-1954 one too.

I have the jeans and really love how the slub has come out with frequent wearing and washing. I agree that the longer jackets are a slight bummer, especially on a Type 2 which is why mine is a shorter one from Warehouse/Denime. I actually don't mind it on the TCB 1890s jacket though, weirdly feels more appropriate probably because of the front pocket placement and size

The 1890s are a little better. The shoulder construction is different. It’s almost like a dropped shoulder and half raglan. That’s a thick 4-ply submariner from Bosie that I fit through the arm holes relatively easily above. Body length is still longer though

I have a Denime Type 2 that I post sometimes too and it’s not always obvious without looking very closely. Full tux pics and spare jacket pics above of the 1890s

The details and fit on those particular jeans are certainly not for everyone but I really like them. They’re more like trousers in the seat than jeans.

I have this one and the matching jeans. I wear the jacket all the time and have posted it a few times in WAYWT. The low and huge front pocket is great.

These look like a nice option for a black denim tux https://www.instagram.com/p/DBl_J4hydFn/?

The ultimate irony is that Full Count had their own copyright infringement saga with TCB a few years ago as the arcs on the small run of 20's jeans for their contest were deemed too close to Full Count's, leading to all pairs being confiscated and then destroyed. Full Count then proceeded to remove their own infringed upon arcs about one year later only to bring back a blatant copy of Levi's for the referenced 30th anniversary model

The pocket flasher on this model was pretty egregious, actually spelling out Levi's

I’ll add that some of those Japanese sites can be harder to navigate than others (Bears, Hinoya, Denimio are the most user friendly) but that’s part of the perverse appeal to me. It’s like a Time Machine to an older internet

Celluloid 1984 is another place to get WH and Full Count for cheaper without needing to proxy. Celluloid is maybe the cheapest place to get Full Count now. Takeoff sells a lot of Warehouse stuff and doesn’t require a proxy either
