STUDIO D'ARTISAN EXTREME & NATURAL INDIGO DENIM JEANS
EXTREME DENIM ALERT ⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Studio D’Artisan has been killing it lately on every front. Their fabric development has reached new heights these past few seasons. Really great to see a line pushing like this after being around for 46 years. This week we’ve received these new Kakishibu denim jeans made of a 16oz mixed slub yarn denim with a persimmon dyed warp and natural weft. Truly beautiful denim from these Japanese natural dye specialists. These come in a straight leg fit and come factory rinsed for easier sizing.We also have natural indigo dyed jeans this week. Studio D'Artisan knows their way around the finer details of working with natural indigo, so it's no surprise that their new SD-808 jean is made of such a beautiful fabric. This new denim is slightly hairy when new, has a light slub character due to the medium staple cotton used, and has been rope-dyed meaning it will age in a slightly more dramatic way compared to many other natural indigo dyed denim fabrics. These come in a straight tapered fit with a medium rise and the jean is finished with herringbone twill pocket bags.

BONCOURA BLACK PAINTER PANTS & INDIGO TYPE II JACKETS
Boncoura’s 15oz black denim Painter Pants and indigo denim Type II jackets have landed at all stores.
A true icon of American workwear, painter's pants have been reimagined through Boncoura's lens. Originally designed for painters, carpenters, and craftsmen, these pants were built for practicality and durability. While staying true to their workwear heritage, Boncoura has refined the silhouette and materials with a contemporary approach. The fabric is woven using Boncoura's original cotton denim, meticulously developed from the selection of raw cotton, fiber blend, and spinning techniques. Woven on Boncoura's special-spec vintage shuttle looms, it boasts a 15oz weight, giving it a rugged texture that contrasts with the lighter ounce vintage painter pants. This robust construction ensures a unique patina and character that will develop beautifully over time. For this black denim Boncoura has applied a rope-dyeing technique, setting it apart from conventional vintage black denim, which is typically dyed to the core. With traditional "piece-dyed" black denim, fading is minimal, but BONCOURA’s approach maintains a white core, allowing for a fading process similar to classic indigo denim. Over time, the fabric reveals a striking contrast, creating a distinct aged effect. Boncoura's exclusive dye formulation gives the fabric a rich, deep black with a nuanced depth that evolves beautifully with wear.
We also have a reinterpretation of the iconic 1950s type II American denim jacket. On vintage type II jackets, underarm gussets were typically found only on larger sizes. Inspired by this historical detail, Boncoura has incorporated it into all sizes of this jacket. The fabric is made from Boncoura’s proprietary "Ikemen" denim, the same as used in the 66 and XX jean models. The underside of the pocket flaps are lined with their original chambray fabric, allowing for a beautifully aged patina over time.

Poten’s new spring collection is here! ⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This season we see Poten doing their caps in a new gray heavy nylon, a black vintage hopsack fabric, and an adjustable cap in black denim . These hats are crazy nice, nicer than any other straight ahead baseball cap we've ever seen. ⠀⠀

Every cap style has a super soft and supple inner leather headband which has been lightly treated so it’s not destroyed by sweat. ⠀⠀

The caps have zero exterior branding except for the stitches which you can see from the top of the crown from the interior branding tags being sewn into the center of the crown. The cap has a medium height crown and the brim has a medium length to it with 19 concentric stitches which feel and look pretty cool in person. If you're into baseball caps, you'll love what Poten is doing. ⠀ ⠀⠀

NEW SUGAR CANE JEANS & WHITESVILLE T-SHIRTS!
A huge delivery from Sugar Cane, Buzz Rickson, and Whitesville just landed at all stores.
Sugar Cane’s new bootcut jeans are here. These are words you probably weren’t expecting to read today. We used to carry bootcut jeans from Sugar Cane, Iron Heart, and Imperial from 2006 to 2009; but over the years most Japanese brands phased out these models as demand for slimmer and tapered (then wider) jeans erased any interest in bootcut silhouettes. Sugar Cane seems to be the first Japanese brand to revisit this style with a completely reworked fit and a new pure-indigo dyed 14oz denim developed in-house and based off bootcut jeans from the early 1970’s, while the fit is inspired by silhouettes closer to the late 1970’s. I guess if you’re selling jeans for nearly 20 years then you’ll see styles you never thought would come back actually come back, and here we are, bootcut jeans, we have them again.
Sugar Cane Fiction & Romance Work Pants are also here. These are made of an 8oz indigo stripe fabric, woven on a shuttle loom, and inspired by vintage narrow-width textiles originally used for traditional Japanese clothing. Initially it appears to be a simple indigo-and-natural stripe fabric, but upon closer inspection, small white areas can be seen within the indigo base. These subtle white sections are created using kasuri yarns, which are carefully resist-dyed to produce a two-tone effect within a single thread.
We've also received USN chambray shirts and 1942 wide chinos from Buzz Rickson, a full restock of 100% cotton Sugar Cane jeans, and just in time for summer, pocket tees in two colors and plain 2-pack tees in four colors from Whitesville.

THE SELF EDGE X SAMURAI X 3SIXTEEN SEXSX3S27 CAPSULE COLLECTION - THE REDLINERS
We've come together with Samurai and 3sixteen, two very well known denim brands we've been working with for a combined 25 years to bring you a capsule collection inspired by our love of Japanese cars. Samurai has had a legitimate racing team building exclusively vintage JDM (Japan Domestic Market) cars for nearly two decades and the crew behind 3sixteen & Self Edge used to build street racing Toyotas and Hondas years ago. We always wanted to do a collaboration involving two different denim focused brands and bringing Samurai together with 3sixteen felt like a natural fit.
All three entities worked on designing an all new Samurai denim from the ground up to create two jeans and a denim jacket which were made in Japan, along with a printed pocket t-shirt which was made in the USA with Japanese hardware accents. The denim is a 15oz Japanese selvedge denim with a natural and synthetic indigo dyed warp made of medium staple 100% Texas cotton fibers while the weft is made of a custom blend of natural un-bleached short staple cottons from Greece, Australia, and the USA. We went with a charcoal selvedge ID with a silver lamé thread, understated and very Samurai. The jean is finished with .950 sterling silver plated sakura buttons, Samurai original rivets, and ShoGyo-Mujo jacquard pocket bags, while the jacket is finished with original Samurai black snap buttons, an inner chest pocket, a heavyweight cowhide patch, a Samurai Motorclub tag, and a 100% cotton drawstring.
You can find this collection of jeans, jackets, tees, and stickers now online and off-line.
