Pronto's Denim Carnival - 27th October 2013

@MikeC:

That's how you throw a fucking party. Nice job Pronto.

^^ From start to finish, amazing - it was a fantastic event staged and managed by super people - very proud and happy to have been involved.

Looks amazing. Man I'd kill to have a selvedge jamboree like that once a year, nearby.

The calm before the storm…

Our competition on the stand was "guess the weight of this (small) pair of jeans"…

It has to be said, the locals do not mind a bit of external customisation to their jeans….

Art and Sarina getting ready for the off…

Well, that is after Sarina has cooled down a bit….

Almost ready to start shifting 25oz in bulk…

The madness begins…

And Haraki can't resist a photo bomb…

[Giles]

As I said above…

Then more 25oz buying frenzy….

Sudo hems, Haraki watches…

Thai for Coca Cola…

Ever prepared, Sarina ready for the next autograph….

Great pictures of the event. I'm also digging the arc color on the collab jeans. Any chance the new 21/23 will get something unique like that? 

[Giles]

Yesterday we wandered around the local area and visited 4 Pronto shops.

Random Iron Heart…..

The space between these 2 malls is where the Denim Carnival's tent was pitched.  It had been taken down over night….

Nope, I'll leave that to Collabs…..(I do like it too though)....

Denim over there is just something else. So great to see the community really getting into it. Wonder why it's taken off there more so than other parts of the world. Really love it!

[Giles]

Good question and one that is causing me not a little head scratching….....

[Fergz]

I wonder has it to do with the association with American culture and the fundamental role that denim plays in this association? Perhaps we're more blasé and less bothered in Europe and the US outside of the niche markets? Just thinking out loud…..could it also be to do with Japan's standing as a producer of remarkable denim? Or maybe the Asian kids are just way cooler....!

[Seul]

We're just fucking spoiled… And SE kids seem to be tons of fun... If it wasn't for the temps I'd haul my arse over there...
