    • RE: Introduce Yourself Here

      Hello everyone, I am originally from Bulgaria, escaped the Communist regime back in the mid 80s lived in Hungary for 7-8 months until figure it out how to get in Austria, lived few years in Austria with few weeks been there in refugee camp as well until get my emigrant papers and apply in US embassy, got green card and in 89 late October arrived in Columbus OH. Got married in 97 and moved to L.A. Sunny California.
      I collect ancient coin, vintage colognes and some watches. And I guess lately I got into this crazy and very addictive blue think.............................................
      How I got here, well I am wearing mostly jeans since the 70s when as a kid got my first jean "Super Rifle" made in Italy back then as a Communist country it was very hard to get any kind of jeans in Bulgaria, it was only on the black market but you need to have connections to get to the black market.
      So I always have few Levis, Lee, diesel, buffalo etc.......First time heard about Japanese denim last year as trying to buy another Levis when googled I found out about 150 years Levis anniversary made in japan so I got me Jacket and Jean made by Nigo and Levis and the rest is history.
      I am now obsessed with this Japanese electric blue, I have seen when browsing a lot the name Denim Head. Am I becoming one myself now?
      my favorites are:
      Samurai - 6 jeans and 3 shirts
      Iron Heart - 5 jeans, 4 denim shirts 3 UH flannels and 1 jacket
      Naked and Famous - 12 jeans
      Momotaro - 8 jeans, 6 shirts and 1 jacket
      studio d'artisan - 5 jeans and 8 UH flannel, Denim and sashiko shirts
      Oni - 8 jeans and 1 overall jacket
      Sugar cane - 6 jeans
      Stevenson Overall - 4 jeans and 1 jacket
      Big John - 2 jeans and 1 jacket
      PBJ - 2 jeans and 1 jaket
      What are your favorites from the Japanese brands, but not from the popular ones is there any hidden gems from less popular brands that you can recommend?
      here is some of what I have at the moment:

      Thank you everyone for the warm welcome and recommendations.
      I was not familiar with most of them and checked out what was available.
      I really liked the Ooe brand and already have this model on the way to me:

      OA LOT SOA03XXD-0823 JEANS - 1940S WIDE STRAIGHT FIT

    • RE: 14 oz pique Ecru vs 21 oz White

      @yannis
      Thanks for the suggestion, I did bought the IH slub few months ago but return it because when I got it it look very familiar, so I pulled my
      WSB-005 "Double Slub" 16oz Rinsed Selvedge Denim - Slim Straight Fit from PBJ
      And to me they were exactly the same material by color and by touching the cotton identical denim, so I returned the IH back.
      Thought I never actually try it on the IH.

    • RE: 14 oz pique Ecru vs 21 oz White

      good to know, as it same to me and was wondering why? will give example between 2:
      21 oz 343s ib
      14 oz 666 ii
      the last few weeks is been very humid in L.A not much hot I am in west Hollywood / Beverly hills area and is been in the 78-82 but very sticky because high tumidity compare to the valley we are most of the time 15 to 25 degrees less
      so any way my 21oz using the jeans all day feels like wearing shorts I have never see so comfy jeans and I have try and wear a lot of selvedges with all kind of weigh.
      on the other hand the 14 oz feels like heavy and uncomfortable to wear in this kind of weather for more than an hour. with the 21 oz 343s ib I will have no problem walking around dead valley for a day LOL. what other IH jeans ate similar made like the 21 oz ib? as I think this is the most comfortable jean I have ever try, and I have try way more than hundred, well not all selvedge but the IH 21 oz ib from day one is perfect no break period at all just amazing wear and feel.
