  1. I think you asked the people frmo Evisu Europe about the Japanese Evisus, which really isn't gonna generate a good answer. The answer you recieved is only applicable to stores selling european evisus on rautuken, and Evisu Europe wouldn't be able to really answer those questions because they don't have anything to do with the production of japanese evisus

  4. one could argue that the blatant washes are overbearing logos. Part of the whole purpose is to be able to tell the brand frmo 10 yadrs away just like a pair of evisus

  5. I don't really think clothes can be over rated, because there simply is no uniform rating system for clothes. Everyone has their own individual preference when buying anything, including something that was, at one time as generic as jeans.

    it seems as if the bulk of people here look for products based on quality, simplicity, and exclusivity

    others looks for quality, embelishments, and exclusivity

    I emphasize exclusivity in both, because if it was not an issue to either sector we would probably all wear only one brand of jeans for our predetermined style, because there really aren't many differences in the materials used, and how they get worn in or otherwise for our individual styles.

    Fit also plays a huge role. Some people like tighter jeans, others like relaxed fits, and smoe people like baggy jeans. Again all a product of personal preference, and there is no universial better or worse, only better to you personally.

    with that being said, I'll just say what I like and why, and why I don't feel they are over-rated since my persnoal style seems to be the opposite of many here.

    My favorite brand lately has been Evisu- I like evisu because at my size and cut (2001) they offer very nice jeans in various styles. My style is very urban so the outlandish details they use to embelish their jeans are cool to me. I order a decent amount of Japanese Evisus from japan, and I think the No. 1 and No. 2 quality denim is crazy. While I'm not wearing them with the same criteria as people were trying to create persnoalized whiskers and honeycombs, I know quality denim and these babies are half japanese selvedge half concrete which is real poppin, and they have selvedge at basically every edge line which is dope. I even like their EEE line for washed out jeans. Many people believe they are over-distressed, but I personally like that look so it all works out for me.

    Red Monkey- Again I feel this is another really nice raw denim brand with very appealing details for an urban-minded consumer with a ideal baggy fit for their 1002 cut . The denim is a little softer in feel and color tone then japanese Evisu's, but that works out for me since I don't wear my jeans for 3 months straight. As opposed to wearing jeans that look the same everyday the different back pocket designs and color schemes and indigo tones allow for slightly different looks everyday.

    PRPS- Alotta complaints in this thread, but again I'm gonna place that on peoples personal preferences. The baggy fit works for me 100% because of my personal syle. I feel the quality of the jeans is great for what they are. Its a very high quality distreesed denim, and in my opinion its the urban equivilent of the Levis LVC jeans, Its just for some and not for others I guess.

    Another brand I don't wear, but that people here seem to not like are Nieghborhood- The cuts could never fit me, but I really like the rediculous washes, patches, and patch ups with the denim quality they use

    the only brand I wear that I say is rediculously over prices is John Richmond- There is nothing amazing about the quality of the denim used, but I'm a suckker for anything as uotlandish as saying RICH right across the ass of the jeans. I would much rather pay half of their retail price, which I feel is much closer to their actual worth, but that price is just what it costs to say RICH across you ass

    As far as verything else goes HYPE is HYPE, and it plays out several ways dependnig on where you are. On this board you could say Nudie is over hyped, and in rap songs you can say Red monkey is over hyped, but in the real world we all live in, its unlikely to see more then five pairs a day of either even in the most crowded cities, so whats hype even worth beyond just other peoples opinions

  11. I've been buying red monkey for over a year now, since it was first released in American stores, and it is far from huge, I'm willing to bet it's hardly as avialable as aNYthing as far as pieces shipped in the states and stores carrying the product.

    just because rappers mention something doesn't mean its huge, it just means rappers mentioned it. If you could give me a reason that goes beyond that maybe I could give a little more weight to that opinion, but Red monkey is supposed to be even rarer this next season because from what I've heard they changed their sales agent because he took accounts with too many stores and stores are actually having their accounts pulled now

  13. for clerification ths is how new era works as I know it from buying some 300 plus fitteds hats and working with stores to design a few custom joints

    $10000 is the minimum annual amount to become a New Era dealer. this means you have to order $10000 worth of hats a year to have a standing contract with the company. Of this $10000 order there are basic hats that they knida force on stores, but you can also design your own hats provided you prove to be able to move the other ones, From what I've heard is you have to move $5000 worth of what they give you before you can place any special orders. Special orders can have custom graphics, custom sourced materials, whatever, but you have to be able to prove you can move product before new era starts treating you special just because you feel you're special, unless you can do something else like all these other companies that makes new era think they are special.

    Again $10000 is the cost to become a store that sells hats recieved on direct orders from New Era. Companys like king stampede, stussy, Alife and so on get special contracts to do small orders because they have names, styles, and buying demographics New era wants to capitalize on. As a person has bought cap religiously for years now its obvious the practice has been extremely successful because I have seen people begin to compile collections based soley of skater/hipster collaborations. Its all good, but it has been a well carried out plan by new era to cross over from being a primarily urban style to noe with crossover appeal.

    Yeah yeah and I'm sure somebodies gonna wanna say "but I've always worn fitted caps", and to them all I can say is you're basically trying to lie to yourself, because New era rebuilt up its whole brand in the past 10 years on the back of the urban buyer and just because a few fell they have been loyal does not compare to the urban consumer who has bought religiously for the past 10 years.

    It's all good though,some of the new jack joints are dope, and some aren't, but its great to see some people gettin the opportunity to collaborate with the dopest hat producer out

    Only thing funny about them is they have become hype pieces as of late, but thats how it goes, I'm plenty content seeing kids slug it out over funny colored ALIFE fitteds while I cop joints that no one knows about that are many times better because of their design as opposed to the name attached

    Theres many many stores that the vast majority of people here have never even heard of that consistently drop hats in the same vien as the collaboration fitteds doper and more exclusive on a weekly basis

    But thats my rant, and I hope it asnwers most of ya'll questions on the issue

  16. china has been severly punking the shit out of big business for the last 10 years

    very very "fuck you pay me"

    I think its pretty stupid for the american government to allow this sort of thing because you basically have a country acting as a monoply and having an effect of the American economy and information network. Just using the example of this subject, now people around can be misfed information for the profit gain of a single company
