      I am addicted to anything Kapital right now.  I feel like Kapital is similar to RRL except with a Japanese flare.  They are heavily driven by things like say the American frontier .  I love that they use old techniques when sewing items together .Like when they make a shirt that has been repaired the way a farmer might patch a jacket to extend its life.  I can go on for days about Kapital but Unfortunately i am yet to own anything.  Either way one of my favorites along side RRL

        I live walking distance from RRL, I wear the jeans I got from them all the time. There's a guy who carries
        the Kapital line in Venice, CA., opened about 2-3 months ago. He told me he was going to carry the whole
        line so I'm pretty stoked by that, might finally get a pair of their boots I've been wanting for years.
        Only issue I have with RRL is that their prices are sky high for stuff that's made in China, great designs
        though.

          I love the RRL low straight cut.  Probably one of the best cuts for me ATM.  & Yea they are def priced through the roof (RRL)  They do have great sales online that enable u to grab some stuff a few times a year.    U are def lucky being so close to both now.  Id be there in a flash lookin for a part time job lol

            😉 Would be cool to have you working down the street Sal! I have those jeans, 15.5 oz. Japanese denim
            made in the USA. I wear them all the time, great cut and a good weight.
            I'm looking forward to seeing what this guy gets in his shop from Kapital's fall/winter line, I'm sure it will be
            what's on Kapital's online shop plus a few more goodies… I'll keep you posted. 😉

              Here's a pretty cool interview with KIRO AND TOSHIKIYO.  Cool to see how father and son differ a bit in what they want and like for denim washes.  Old school vs new school

                    I kind of like the weave, though I am not sure if it's really a serge de nimes, a "denim".  I guess it could be with just super irregular warps.  Someone with more expertise than I would have to clear that one up.

                    Think it, be it.

                      The fabric itself looks ace, defo… I mainly think the guy's expression is ruining this experience...

                            They are not pre distressed.  They look like this new.  Brown and grey

                              Yeah, seeing that close up I think it's a gray warp denim periodically interrupted by a large indigo weft that goes under a few warp threads and over a bunch more at a time.  I've admired em for a while, they ain't cheap though.

                              Think it, be it.

                                Go here u can see a few more fits of this denim

                                http://centurydenim.jp/category/style-and-outfit/

                                I love the brown more than the grey.  They are a work of art for sure

                                I believe they are $250 on the Kapital site i think  ¥21,840 equals $250 usd

                                    I was surprised at their price.  If u look on Unionmade they have their stuff for much more.  I think they are around $100 to $150 more

                                        I like their Century denim, I've seen it in person, it's pretty heavy weight and very well made. Jeans were
                                        $260.00 I think, not too bad at all.

                                          Yeah $260 is as good as it gets BH.  Def gonna pick up a pair soon.
