Denim
In 1990, the original members of Ground-Alls were passionate about the G-WWII-SP war model, which they pioneered.
The G-WWII-SP war model was a faithful reproduction (sampling) of several pairs of denim that resonated with them from among the dozens of LEVIS war models (1942-1945 S501XX) they owned.
This time, the G-WWII-Special model was created and supervised by the original members, retaining the essence of the S501XX without changing the pattern, while further refining the essence.
The denim is produced using a shuttle loom based on the recipes of the time (finishing, dyeing, weaving), and is made from American cotton with low oil content.
We are committed to selling rope-dyed denim in rigid form.
The denim is woven from 100% USA cotton (made in Japan) and weighs 13.75oz unwashed, and 14.71oz when washed in water.
Pure indigo rope dyed, with 66 warp threads and 48 weft threads.
Silhouette
The silhouette is a straight model typical of a wartime model.
The rise is deep, giving it a very roomy straight cut typical of a wartime model.
Details
100% cotton thread. The sewing thread is 100% cotton thread, and two colors of thread, orange and yellow, are used.
The poor fastness of the cotton thread causes fading and shrinkage, resulting in puckering, giving it a good feel. This leads to a good look.
Based on the vintage of the time, we insisted on using two colors of cotton thread instead of all yellow stitching.
The buttons are a reproduction of the early Ground-Alls WWII-SP. Universal's special order, black chrome laurel two-prong.
The herringbone of the lining is 100% cotton twill, reproducing the herringbone khaki color used on the 1940's US Army M-43 cargo pants, and is used for the lining fabric.
The paint stitch on the back pocket is an essential detail for a wartime model, so after trial and error, we decided to use the same ink as back then, with Ground-Alls' original paint stitch.
The red tab is made of rayon material dyed red like the original, with a Silverstone S mark.
Quinchi (side sewing thread) The quinchi, which is subject to stress, uses 6-count thread. Reinforced with 7 to 9 inches.
The punched rivet is a hidden rivet with a GA-SL & CO. stamp. It is sewn with one thread while folding by hand without using an iron. A special Universal disc rivet is used for the edge trim.
Chain stitch whiskers. The chain stitch whiskers that Ground-Alls started as a joke at the time are proof that it was made using traditional processes.
The leather patch is goat leather, a material that you can enjoy changing over time.
It will be delivered in an original box with an insurance card motif that protects the fibers of the Jeans from fading, moisture, dust, etc.
*Notes*
- Metal fittings such as buttons, rivets, zippers, and buckles may damage your body or other objects, so please handle them with care.
- Because denim is woven on old-fashioned power looms, there may be unevenness, small scratches, and balls in the fabric, but these are not defective products but genuine products, so please understand that we cannot accept exchanges or returns.
- Jeans may have creases. These may be creases from when we stored them, or they may have been caused by the manufacturer when storing them, but in any case, creases from folding are not defective products but genuine products, so please understand that we cannot accept exchanges or returns.
- Denim may transfer color, so please be careful when washing and what you wear with it.

*Size chart for 30, 34, and 36inc will be updated as soon as they arrive.
*The above values were measured with the raw denim laid flat.
The jeans will shrink when soaked in water, so they will shrink when washed.
When we shrunk them in our store using a dryer, the waist shrunk by about 4-5cm and the length by 7-8cm.
These are only estimates, but please use them as a reference.
*The above values are measured when the item is laid flat after one wash.
We lay it on the floor, remove any wrinkles, and measure the fabric flat.
The size numbers will vary by a few centimeters depending on the individual product, the measurement method, and the amount of force used.
The size chart is therefore only a guide and may differ from the actual numbers.
*The product photos are taken with a digital camera.
