THis is my Girlfriend's (she's jap) translation summary of this article... released in japan...
denime was becoming very stricting for hayashi-san
he couldnt make what he wanted with denime
he didnt want to make jeans for fashion
he has spirit of workman and made weekly trips to his factories...
He really cares about the denim, and the new denim is hairy in a different way in comparison to all the other brands out there.
he wanted to make 'things'' that would cost the same no matter how long the time passes
he is tryin to make 100 mil yen selling in 3 years.
And most importantly!! he is using his old dyeing method!! we are gonna see some wick fades similar to the old denimes very soon!
the new jeans will be priced at 22,000yen.
very reasonable!
