I'm working on it!

[Pomito]

Next try:

[Seul]

Boomtime!.. Man those look great!..

[Pomito]

They sure do - I had to repair some minor parts already like the inner sleeves of one pocket but of course this simply adds to the appeal.

So sad you cannot get this model anymore. I should have bought some more pairs and put them in a safe….

[Pomito]

Some more ALD stuff:

The Frontier

Jacket in its natural surrounding:

And at rest:

[Seul]

You can easily get ALD stuff man, and cheap… Let me know what you're looking for and what size(s) and I'll hook you up!..

And dude: I love your style... What jacket are you wearing on top of the Frontiers?.. Are you €uropean?..

[bertoni]

Great pics Pomito! I love ALD too. Got a pair of Frontier Selvedge on the go at the mo with another pair of Frontier Edition Limitée (Jeanspaleis) waiting in the cupboard. Was thinking of copping some Prescotts. Would have copped yours Seul but I was too late. I never know what size to get though…the sizing with ALD is confusing to say the least!

[Seul]

I got a size 30 Prescott and I'm a 32" waist…..... Took me 2 minutes to get into them, after half an hour they fitted perfectly...

So yeah: if you want a slightly tighter fit, size down... If you don't mind a slightly looser fit (as they're intended to be worn), stick to your true size...

The selvedge ones stretch quickly whereas the regular ones really don't... That's another thing you gotta keep in mind... But get selvedge ones... Not just for the sake of the selvedge, but the backstitching is blue on blue instead of blue with a yellow line... Just looks nicer...

If you wanna get a pair, let me know, lotsa people selling their leftover stock at low prices at the moment!..

[bertoni]

I take a W34 in 634S and they fit perfect. A W34 in the Frontier Selvedge is actually W36 before wash (not washed them yet). The Royal was TTS….so should I go for a W34 in the Prescott Selvedge?

[Seul]

Yep, ya should…

Aaaaaaaand BBOMTIME!.. Just bought a good-as-new 2nd pair of darktones... Lol... SOMEBODY STOP ME!..

[bertoni]

How much d'ya reckon for a pair of Prescott Selvedge W34 L33

[Seul]

100 €. I'll look for one tomorrow.

[Pomito]

@ seul: Yes, I'm German and the jacket I wear in the upper pic is from Pike Brothers. Bought it directly from them at some Hot Rod meet two years ago and I am extremly satisfied with it.

There are frequently coming up ALD jeans on the german site of that internet auction house, but I haven't found a Prescott for a long long time. So if you could be helpful… (Waist 34, just in case...)

[Seul]

Ok what I can easily hook you up with:

• Prescott jacket MEDIUM
• Classic jumper size LARGE

These:

-Frontier Worker, broken twill selvage:
guaranteed to fade beautiful!
32x33, 34x33, 36x33
30x35, 32x35, 34x35

-Prescott Sterling broken twill selvage, sizes left:
28x33, 30x35

-Royston Black selvage:
34x33(last one!)

-Prescott 'worn-in' selvage
28x33, 28x35

-Prescott darktone(non selvage)
30x35(last one!)

What I have found myself (above are all from 1 Dutch getting rid of stock, soo all the material's new):

• Prescott selvedge broken twill version size 34x35

But I'll keep an eye out and post more here soon!..

Also: do you mean eBay.de by 'German auction house'?.. If not: linkme up… I can read German, so that's not an issue...

[Pomito]

Thanx for the list, seul. Seems that you are very well connected in the Church of French Designed Denim 

I really would appreciate another Prescott in 14oz. denim, but I suppose this will be rather difficult. They didn't turn up at ebay for ages. Yes, I am talking about ebay.de. Currently there are some ALD items on sale from someone in  Munich, I think, but nothing interesting for me.

pomito … try this

www.b-74.de

he (kami) got a lot ALD … but not for sale .... regular prices

[Seul]

Link doesn't work. Also: paying old prices for these is not what I would recommend… I found 2 NEW pairs of Prescotts (selvedge) within 2 weeks... For 100 € each... So be patient: I will hook you up...

Thank you, guys, for the B74-Link. I know the shop but they do not have Prescotts in my size any more.

I bought my Prescott from https://www.original-fliegerjacken.de/. Usually they sell via the net but last autumn they made a kind of garage sell at their HQ. I was there and they still had tons of ALD in stock, but I was reluctant to buy for some reason. Shame on me, now their supplies have dried out…

Size 32, but measured waist closer to 34" already…
