Roy "Big Brother" Round Two Jeans
Roy Slaper is back at it with a new jean made of a newly developed denim.
The new version of the Big Brother jean is a tweaked Big Bro fit with slightly more taper to the leg. Also, this version of the Big Bro has a plain back (no buckle-back).
The denim on these jeans is an all new 13.5oz loomstate denim which Roy designed from the ground up. Cone did not have or could not produce the selvedge id thread color so Roy had another company manufacture just the single thread that goes through the selvedge line and had the thread shipped to Cone to use on his denim. The warp yarns are made of a conventional American cotton while the weft is made of Supima cotton giving the fill threads an off-white caste. Supima is a longer staple cotton so we're thinking it will be less prone to stretching out and knee bagging.
The fabric for the pocket bags were also custom designed and produced for this jean. They're an undyed (natural) ring-ring 3x1 twill that is loomstate and will be cut in a way where it shrinks with the jean. The pocket bags are a 10oz 3x1 cotton twill which is 100% ring spun, undyed, and unsanforized.
We're really in love with the rear pocket shape, the exposed 2-prong tack and washer rivets, and the fabric. We don't believe we've seen a denim with this much character come out of Cone Mills before, the weave pattern is very unique and so is the shade of indigo.
**These jeans will go on sale at Noon (local time) at all four Self Edge stores on Saturday, January 10th and at 9am (PST) in our online store on the same day. **

Que Pasa Shop Self Edge Warehouse Sale Round Two
Que Pasa Shop is launching Round Two of the Self Edge Warehouse Sale today at 10am. Items being sold will consist of every imaginable type of thing we've ever sold from every brand we've carried. Everything is marked down 40% to 80% off the original retail price. We've partnered wth our good friends from Que Pasa Shop (@quepasashop) Portland to sell everything for us. All items will be shipped from Portland, so regardless of where you are there will be no sales tax. We will have over 500 items listed for sale, it's quite a bit of product going back to the beginning of Self Edge; some things make us nostalgic for the early items we used to sell. We will be reducing the prices of whatever is left from the sale every 7 to 10 days until everything is gone.

Iron Heart 18oz Indigo/Indigo Denim Jeans
Iron Heart has just hit us with a new denim, an 18oz Japanese selvedge denim where both the warp and weft are indigo dyed. This creates a super dark blue jean which will have some fairly wild looking fading due to the indigo saturated look of the denim. This new denim is available in both a straight leg and slim cut fit.
Along with these new jeans we've received a full restock of all other Iron Hearts jeans currently in production including the 301s slim tapered jean, the 633s straight tapered jean, 9634 straight leg super black, and of course their entire selection of denim jackets and vests.

John Lofgren's Made in Japan Champion Sneakers
John Lofgren footwear needs no introduction. In the span of a few short years, John Lofgren's engineer boots have become the gold standard for boot aficionados. Now he brings his footwear passion and love of vintage style to the classic sneaker.
Lofgren's new low top sneakers are, of course, fully hand-made in Japan. They're vulcanized at one of Japan's last remaining factories still committed to this process and made from 100% cotton woven in Japan. But it's only when you pick them up, or more importantly put them on your feet, that you'll find what truly sets them apart. Feel that extra heft, that extra cushion. Double soles, a feature rarely seen on sneakers now, make these some of the most comfortable sneaker available. And the bar keeps rising…taped seams, metal eyelets and vents, double stitched stress points, full sponge insoles, reinforced heel and toe cups. A new gold standard for the classic sneaker.

Flat Head Winter Shirts, Jackets, & Shell Cordovan Wallets
New Flat Head and Real Japan Blues shipments have arrived at all of our stores this week. We received a couple of new Flat Head and Real Japan Blues shirts. One is a snap buttoned flannel and the other is a wild woven then printed fabric.
This year's varsity is a stunner. The wool body and the lamb skin leather arms are the softest two materials we've felt on a varsity, or nearly any other garment. We're still trying to wrap our heads around how they were able to get both materials this soft. The varsity is also Thinsulate lined, so it's lightweight but warm.
We've also gotten in a Flat Head car club style jacket, slightly longer in the body and made of a wool outer and an original rayon lining.
Last up we've had Flat Head make us up a batch of their hand-sewn shell cordovan folding light wallets. These come in both black and dark tan and are pig-skin lined and include a stamped brass Flat Head branding plate.

The Good Art "Rocklock" Ring & Sterling Button Watch Caps
We just received a new ring from Good Art which is straight fire. Everytime we look at this thing our brain melts a little bit. Love the three dimensional look of the design combined with the heavy weight of the ring.
Along with the new Rocklock ring we've received woven cotton watchcaps which have a sterling silver Good Art button at the top of the cap. These are fluffy, soft, and woven in Oregon for Good Art.

3sixteen Heavyweight Hoodies, Indigo-Dyed T-Shirts, Shadow Selvedge Type III Jackets & Jean Restocks
3sixteen have just released a new (and updated) version of their black hoodie. This new version uses an even heavier custom woven cotton fleece and custom matte-black double-pull YKK zippers. The hoodie has a great fit and we don't think you can buy a better hoodie anywhere near this price.
Along with the hoodie we've received a restock of 3sixteen's indigo-dyed pocket t-shirts which come in a 2-pack. The first run of these sold out in a matter of days and we're happy to have them back in stock at our shops. These have a slim fit, short arms, and a small pocket and will fade and age over time with regular wear and washings just like a pair of jeans.
We were also able to get a small restock of the Shadow Selvedge and Double Black Type III denim jackets at our shops, the Shadow Selvedge is available in-store and online while the Double Black is available in-store only or via phone/email order.
Along with these items we've received full restocks of over 20 different models of 3sixteen and 3sixteen+'s jeans. These are available now at all of our stores.
