LEVI'S VINTAGE CLOTHING - 501 XX Limited Edition

Levi's - the mother of all jeans. Sewn in the USA, using the patterns of collector's items from the archives, Levi's Vintage Clothing is reissuing the legendary Levi's 501 Rose Bowl from 1933 and the Levi's 501 from 1947 with their special characteristic traits.

Since 1922 the 501 is made exclusively from pre-shrunk denim with a red selvedge from Cone Mills and the guaranteed 'XX' weaving looms in North Carolina, with which first-class quality is ensured.

On top of that the traditional label is presenting the SPUR BITES jeans, a one-to-one replica of the originals from San Francisco made between 1890 and 1901. The name SPUR BITES refers to the typical wear and tear on the leg caused by spurs and riding boots. Traditional details like riveted back pockets, chinch backs as well as brace buttons complete the must-have item.


The limited edition Levi's Vintage Clothing items are available only in a few selected stores worldwide, as well as at the 14 oz. store.


LVC 501 XX 1890 - 649,90 Euro


LVC 501 XX 1947 - 274,90 Euro

The Byrd House Project - Exhibition by Woolrich


In the 1930s Admiral E.
Richard Byrd developed the fabric, which, due to the density of its structure alone, is water-repellent and windproof. He had it patented as the first American cotton fabric and it was successfully used during the Byrd Antarctica expedition in the year 1939.

While researching for the new collection the Woolrich design team came across the historic fabric and asked an Italian fabric manufacturer to reproduce the matt, robust and breathable material.








The Byrd House is installed in the 14 oz. backyard next to the colourful garages.

Join us for drinks at the bar and some BBQ!

Opening hours:

4th & 5th July: 10 a.m. to 08 p.m.

6th & 7th July: 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
(BREAD & BUTTER SHOPPING NIGHTS)

Limited special edition Woolrich Arctic Parka for 14 oz. Berlin

Exclusively for the Berlin 14 oz. store, the oldest US-American outerwear brand Woolrich is rereleasing the legendary Arctic Parka in a limited edition of 600 coats worldwide for the A/W 2011/12 season: in five new colours and made for the first time from Byrd Cloth.



Founded in 1830 by John Rich and his brothers, traditional company Woolrich
is synonymous with functional and timeless jackets. The symbiosis of tradition and modernity, of long-lasting products and robust materials are the reasons behind the brand‘s huge success.

Woolrich originally designed the Arctic Parka for the workers constructing the pipeline from Alaska to North America in the year 1972. And to this very day the thick down filling still protects from extreme winds, persistent snowstorms and freezing cold temperatures as low as -40° Celsius. During winter, the adjustable hood with coyote fur trim is regularly
seen protecting the ruddy faces of urban workers from wind, rain and snow.

The Arctic Parka made from Byrd Cloth is a homage to the reliable functionality
of the Woolrich classic – and based on the faithful reproduction of the rediscovered Byrd Cloth material, takes it one step further. In the 1930s Admiral E. Richard Byrd developed the fabric, which, due to the density of its structure alone, is water-repellent and windproof. He had it patented as the first American cotton fabric and it was successfully used during the Byrd Antarctica expedition in the year 1939. While researching for the new collection the Woolrich design team came across the historic fabric and asked an Italian fabric manufacturer to reproduce the matt, robust and breathable material.



Made in Italy to exacting quality standards Woolrich is presenting the Arctic
Parka made from Byrd Cloth exclusively for 14 oz. in five clean and vibrant colour variations: Bottle Green, Bright Yellow, Royal Blue, Burnt Orange and Dark Navy.



Special extras on the limited edition are the YKK metal zip and
a second inside pocket with a press stud fastener and the Byrd Cloth label. Consecutive numbering on the joint Woolrich and 14 oz. label makes every parka a unique collector‘s item.

Thanks to its classic silhouette and the width adjustable
waistband the Arctic Parka fits both ladies and men and is available in sizes XS-XXL.

The parka will be available to purchase from July 2011
at 14 oz. Berlin.

799.90 EUR
