SDA - Studio D'Artisan

[Dion]

I think SDA's approach of combining Lee and Levi's elements on one piece for their own 40th anniversary is pretty interesting:

It's not something I would want to wear personally, though, but a cool idea nonetheless.

I think that jacket is an abomination. The pants are a lower grader abomination.

I (kinda) like the "arts & crafts" jacket, but not $800+ worth of like.

@JDelage:

Yep.  This^^^

And I generally like SDA stuff, especially their tee-shirts.

[organisys]

anyone have any SDA sunglasses? I just won a pay on the bay…..are they any good ? 

[jdl1279]

Anybody pick up the sashiko work shirt? If so what's the fit/sizing like?

[jdl1279]

Pretty much floored by this one. The details and fabric are amazing, and the folks at Okayama helped me nail a perfect fit (pics to come undoubtedly)

[JDelage]

On a separate note, SDA is re-issueing the SD-102, which is a relaxed leg cut. It's being produced as a SD-102CB, that is to say with cinch back. The top block is fairly similar to the SD-101, so not a high rise cut.

Bought a made in Japan vintag Fred Perry hoodie of a Malaysian bloke on Grailed, and he let me add this for a cool 20, so why not?.. It's probably well used, but I know from experience that these things are pretty much indestructible… And will you just look at that print!..

@beautiful_FrEaK , my lawyers are all over this  ???

I have never worn or bought any SDA jeans but I think their 14 oz Western Shirt D5571 is the best in the business. Mervyn sells them.

[JDelage]

I have the workshirt in the same fabric. Great shirt, but it takes forever to break it in.

[Crease]

Something about the 14oz work and western shirts makes them feel so buttery to me 
I also have a couple flannels from last season that are really cool unbrushed. I’d definitely try more if I wasn’t in love with Iron Heart!

My old man has been living in his work shirt hand me down

@Crease those look awesome. how is the sizing on that western shirt compared to iron heart? Measurements online seem… strange..so I’m not sure what to make of it.

[Crease]

I went with the 46 in both when I usually take XXL in Iron Heart. The sleeves seem tighter but little bigger chest. Otherwise I haven’t noticed them fitting that weird.

Their 14oz is definitely not at rigid though. Could be a good or bad thing depending on what you like. For me it depends on what mood I’m in.

I picked up a pair of their jeans in the natural dye black...wow. Stunning stuff. It looks like they are going for different dying methods as opposed to a wide variance in fabrics...it's interesting. The jeans fir very similar to my 555s but a little tighter in the top block. They aren't nearly as comfortable as my 21oz 555s but they look and feel fantastic. Here is what I picked up... https://www.selfedge.com/studio-dartisan?product_id=3360&sort=p.date_added&order=DESC

Picked this shirt up from Okayama and I’m floored. The attention to detail and the texture of the fabric are simply stunning. It’s also WAY heavier than I anticipated at 13oz. The fit is perfect and I can’t wait for the weather to cool down so I can wear this.

@edgarallanpoe def had temptation here. Is it more sweater like? Texture looks nice. Thought it was maybe too similar to my wabash but now rethinking
