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.

For me, the stand out piece is the moto jacket and it ALMOST came home w me but I had my eye on a pair of Stevenson Overalls that I have wanted to try on forever. Great staff, super personable and professional. Thanks to Sean for helping me with my sale!

STUDIO D’ARTISAN AMAMI DOROZOME & SLUBBY GL3 JEANS

We've got a really special jean here as we see Studio D’Artisan pushing their production techniques to a new level, the Amami-Dorozome double-indigo mud dyed jeans. These jeans have been mud dyed over indigo denim by hand in Amami Oshima, Japan. Absolutely beautiful and once the mud-dyed “overdye” fades away you’ll be able to see the deep indigo denim underneath. These will look truly amazing after some wear as they patina and the indigo denim shows through the "overdye".

These GL3 SD-1001 (classic straight leg) and SD-1008 (relax tapered) models are Studio D'Artisan's newest jean made of their newly developed slubby 15oz denim. They nailed the feel and look of this denim, with the 15oz weight it's a heavy denim which can be worn year round. SDA truly nailed the perfect amount of slub yarn character for just the right about of slub pattern in the denim. This denim is unsanforized (but rinsed) and has some great character to it; it starts out a little darker than your average raw indigo jean so it's sure to look great once the patina forms as some areas start to lighten with regular wear.

These are not produced by a factory producing jackets for other brands, these are produced in Fine Creek’s own small workshop in Tokyo.

BONCOURA BLACK DENIM JEANS & REVERSE-WEAVE SWEATS

Boncoura hits us this week with new black jeans, reverse-weave sweatshirts and sweatshorts, and a new run of their 1966 jeans in their flagship indigo denim.

Boncoura’s first black denim jeans are here, and as expected, they look amazing. There is a lot we can say about Boncoura’s jeans.. From the unique heft and unique feel of their denim, to the way the sewing is so precise, to the original yarns and hardware produced for every pair, these are truly some of the best black jeans we’ve ever carried. Check the product page on our site for a very lengthly rundown of all the details.

Boncoura Extra-Long Staple Cotton Reverse-Weave short sleeve sweatshirts and sweatshorts in two colors are also here. These are made of new fabric developed for Boncoura's short-sleeve sweatshirts and sweat shorts—designed with spring and summer in mind. At its core is extra-long staple cotton, known for its softness and smooth hand feel. To create a deeper look Boncoura blends several types of cotton and introduces "fallen cotton"—fibers left from spinning. But not all fallen cotton is the same; depending on the cotton species and fiber characteristics, it greatly influences the texture and appearance of the fabric. By using fallen cotton from long, soft fibers, they maintain the refined touch while achieving a unique knit depth. The reverse side features a looped terry structure perfect for warmer months. Carefully adjusted yarn thickness and knit density help create a natural layer of air between skin and fabric—offering breathability without compromising structure.

We've also received a fresh run of their 1966 jean in their flagship indigo denim.

STEVENSON OVERALL CO. SUMMER COLLECTION

We've just received Stevenson's selection of summer shirts and basics including new tank tops, underwear, Cody western shirts, and loopwheeled henley t-shirts.

Stevenson Dual-Comfort tank tops are here in two colors. These are produced of a double-faced grafted fabric, consisting of two pieces of cotton material bonded together with a vintage dobby style loom, making this a versatile piece for all season wear. The fabric is soft to the touch and can be easily worn as a layering piece or on its own. The design is inspired by vintage tank tops issued by the U.S. military, reimagined as casual wear rather than underwear.

We now also have a fresh run of the Stevenson Overall Cody shirt in stock, this one in a 6.5oz black/black sulfur-dyed denim version. These are made of a ring-spun Zimbabwe cotton and finished with a super-fine stitch count and Belnap stone snap buttons. The front yoke of these Cody shirts is shaped like a buffalo horn and the back yoke is designed in a wing-shape while chest pockets, sleeve plackets, and cuffs are designed in an arch. Some truly beautiful lines running throughout these shirts.

We've also received Stevenson’s loopwheeled henley t-shirts in two colors; we believe this to be the best version of this type of henley tee you can find by any brand. The cotton is organic, unbleached, un-acetate washed, and starts as a medium to short staple cotton fiber. The fabric is knit on a vintage loopwheeling machine which knits the fabric in a circular pattern with a gravity assisted “pull” which leaves a horizontal knit pattern on the fabric. The sleeve hem in of itself is a work of art; using multiple styles of knitting patterns flat lock stitched together to create the snug hem of the sleeve, and the shirt is finished with a real rayon woven tag.

Lastly we have some very nice boxer briefs made of a Tanguis cotton that’s soft yet sturdy. These are based on a vintage design but updated in all the right areas so you don’t have to go looking for some WWII-era chonies at the vintage store.
