Denim looks nice (and your logo). Kaihara?

Thanks!

I cannot tell you the mill, but it is European denim.

Yeah I like the logo

was it intentional that you did the chainstitch hem inside out?

Thanks as well!

Glad you asked about the inside out chainstitch. It was during development that the atelier accidently put it inside out, but I kinda liked it and kept it this way.

The last couple of months I've been working on a jeansmaking project, which I call Benzak Denim Developers. As a start, I designed and developed a limited run (36 pairs) of jeans. Since last week, my website is up and running, completing all preparations for releasing the limited run.

you wont get sharp lines, only subtle depth fading, which is quit nice i reckon

yeah they are the slimmer of the two

sorry no fit pics, they are stored now. i used an old pic

But meh, maybe you're right and they're fake.

maybe I am, but lets cut the discussion. if they're not fake, the owner owns an apology (from me at least), but if they are fake, it's not even worth the discussion, right?

let's go on with posting pics, so here's my contribution (at CTB's request):

I got these painted last year by one of Evisu London's painters, Kanji. Instead of two ordinairy gulls, I asked if he could make one bigger gull that would exceed the pocket. Unfortunately that was not possible, but he offered me to do a 'cut-off' gull (if you imagine the lines go on, you will see a bigger sized gull). The result was almost a copy of the shape of the painted Levis arcs, from during WWII.

And how did you reach this conclusion? I could've sworn I've seen similar pairs sold on legitimate Japanese sites.

foil print gull and text, denim cast, colour of the yarns, tab is too big, buckle is off..

and, I used to have the same pair about 6 years ago, when my interest for denim just started. I've thrown it away btw

Yeah i've seen the design before, but it looks completely off on your pair (quality and finish) .. and that red tab looks a tad too big.

I have seen this style before a few years back!!! these may be fakes of the real design..i'm not sure....

yeah, it's a copy of an evisu design yes

I'm not sure how this started to begin with. Dudes see two, small ass pictures and automatically scream: Fake!! We don't have any pictures of selvedge, the red tab, waist tag, rivets, etc. They just saw gold on the ass. And I have to ask myself, do I really care if they're fake?

I really do care. Counterfeit products cause so much damage to brands, Evisu is still recovering from the fake wave some years ago.

the ones with one lee pocket and one evisu pocket?

I was close with my guess..

the evisu blog is offline now somehow, but on it there is a video of the latest catwalk show (probably ss 09) where the ones I described in my previous post (see quote) can be seen. they carry the same leather label as cheeps leepro.

price drop on the Denimes, from EUR 140,- to EUR 120,-

the ones with one lee pocket and one evisu pocket?
