More variations on a theme. Six pairs of 1950s store brand-inspired jeans featuring left-hand twill selvedge denim, Gripper Zipper fly, chambray-reinforced back pockets and UFO rivets.

As these are set in the 1920s, the lower end of the fly piece and the inside seam are left unfinished without folding in.

We are testing a new Timeline feature to notify users of new posts without having to refresh the page.

It will be rolling out later today!

I prefer the selvedge on the watch pocket to be tucked under without screaming for attention. Subtly visible only from the side.

1920s-style pair on the inside. Time period set shortly after single-needle flat-felled seams changed to double-needle lapped seams.

As I don't have a belt loop machine, I use a serger to finish one edge, fold, and stitch from the back right along both edges. These pairs are set in the 1920s and have belt loops made of lighter weight denim than the pants themselves. The third picture is of a pair set to be slightly older than the other three, and has belt loops that are bar tacked from the inside at the top of the waistband.

Back views of four pairs of 1920s-style jeans. The first one is set to be slightly older than the other three. Can you spot the three main differences?

Variations on a theme. 1920s-style buckleback "waist overalls" with suspender buttons, light-ounce belt loops, and a linen label. Each pair has different buttons and rivets.

Pixelfed will be a year old in a few days.

I'm a high school dropout that has never taken any CS or computer classes.

Web development is just a hobby of mine, I work in the auto industry.

I'm so proud of this project, I never would have imagined that I could make something like this.

Thank you for helping me realize credentialism isn't so important as you think. ❤️

Linen label.
