I wonder if that's a the wrangler shirt just a in a different wash? Just looking at the stitching color as his lines up more with the lighter wash one. I feel like the contrasting stitching would be pretty visable. I'll throw down a few pictures for comparison.
Edit: added photos

I’m wondering if they just bought what they could, colour closeness wise and then did their breakdown magic on them all. Might have been tricky to get the #s they needed in same shade but could get pretty close after breakdown.
Not sure if this counts? Might be more of an Ellie prop . . .

Just got my River Island shirt and Huckberry jacket. One thing I suppose I can say at this point is that Joel wears comfortable clothes that fit nicely.
The River Island shirt is on the longish side, but that's just the design. They definitely shortened the Fjallraven, but I can't quite tell with this one. It does look like in the store pics, the color is not as uniform as in the show after whatever they did with it. But it looks good to me.
I was gonna skip this one at first but in the end I went for it since it was so easy to find. Now I'm just missing the jeans, which I was going to skip too and are quite a headache to get in Europe, but I like their color too much. I'll have to think about the boots.

Here is a pretty good view of the riverisland shirt and Levis' 505 without all the filters
Don’t suppose you guys know the dye mixture ratio for the River Island shirt? Like 1 bottle of Rit Dye black and a blue? lol no idea, but if someone is able to inquire, before I put this thing in the dunk tank.
That photo is a great reference though! Weird that it looks more blue.
Is it properly white balanced?

I would not put that much black, it’ll overpower the blue and come out too dark
Maybe half of both?

Rit actually has color formulas available on their site here
I’m leaning towards twilight blue night but it could be any number of the many many blues on there. I’m not doing this cosplay but I’m interested in seeing how it turns out, hope people post more pictures of what they’ve got so far soon

Has anyone figured out what color way Joel's Levis 505 are?

That is going to be really hard to figure out with all the breakdown they've done on them. Best bet is to find one close enough colour wise. They are like a faded dark indigo. Only way to really know exactly is see the inside tag of the jeans.
Don't suppose anyone has contacts within the costume department to inquire on generally the dye combinations for the River Island shirt.
I know I’m beating a dead horse ha. But you only get one chance with dye lol.
UPDATE: Looks like the costume breakdown artist is Sage Lovett. Perhaps she might know the exact details.

From those last two pictures, they look lighter around the shin area, so they most likely used to be very different before the costume department treated them. There are like five thousand variations of Levi's 505, so unless the costume designer specifically says which was the original and what they did to it, it's just a matter of personal taste.
Since I'm not looking to cosplay and I just like the clothes, personally I'm getting the stuff that looks nice to my eye, but I'd also be curious to know exactly what they used and what the process was like.

Wanted to share my find. User stopmo in a separate thread about the watch recommend the Timex Weekender. I rolled with that, dug for hours through NATO straps, I feel semi-confident in my result. Only problem is I can't find the right hands.

I have an Etsy maker who makes a great custom face, so I'm 99% there.
