NEW STEVENSON OVERALL CO. COLLECTION A new collection from Stevenson Overall Co. is here. First up, their Absolutely Amazing merino wool thermal shirts are back, available in new colors, and now available up to size XXXL! Anyone who's been following Self Edge for a while knows that this is one of the top ten things we've ever carried, and we have Stevenson Overall make them for us every year or two in new colors. These are made of a Japanese spun certified mulesing-free fine merino wool, they’re extremely soft and can be worn in both cold and somewhat warm climates due to the natural temperature regulating properties of merino wool. We also have crew neck sweaters featuring a vivid Nordic pattern, combining a chunky texture with a versatile silhouette. The wool used is spun to be lightweight and air-filled, aka Lofty High-Loft Wool, providing high insulation. Each strand has an air layer, offering both warmth and a unique, vibrant texture. With the Maverick jacket SOC have reimagined the third generation of the denim jacket; this unique design features front pleats for mobility and flap pockets. The front yoke line forms a subtle V-shape toward the center and is complemented by the shape of the pockets. The jacket is made of an original SOC developed sanforized (but raw) 14.5oz selvedge denim, is rope-dyed with slub yarns, and woven on vintage shuttle looms. We also have new Cody shirts and restocks of previous versions, Encinitas jeans in indigo and black, and their Athletic socks in three colors.

BONCOURA LOOPWHEELED FLEECE HOODIES & INDIGO JEANS Insanely nice loopwheeled zip-up hoodies from Boncoura are here. These things are heavy, soft, and built like no other loopwheeled sweater we’ve ever carried. They’re that good. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These Boncoura hoodies are made of a custom developed 20.5oz loopwheeled fleece. One of their standout features is the hood, designed with a unique structure that naturally stands upright when worn. This thoughtful design keeps the neckline clean and adds a refined touch to an otherwise casual basic hoodie. The silhouette offers just the right amount of room, maintaining a relaxed fit without looking sloppy. The loopwheel fleece fabric crafted by BONCOURA is made using vintage loopwheel knitting machines. These machines operate slowly and gently, placing minimal stress on the yarn to preserve its natural softness and texture. This meticulous process results in a fabric that is soft, smooth, and full of character, offering a rich and refined hand feel. By avoiding undue tension on the yarn, the fabric retains its shape over years of wear and preserves its unique texture, even after repeated washing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Boncoura's loopwheeled fleece fabric is densely knitted while incorporating air into its structure, a distinctive characteristic of loopwheel knitting. This combination creates exceptional insulation, keeping you warm in colder seasons while delivering unparalleled comfort with its plush feel. This fleece fabric becomes increasingly supple and develops a unique patina the more it is worn, offering a personal aging process. We also have fresh production runs of Boncoura's two most popular jeans, the XX straight leg and '66 slighty tapered leg jean. Shop Boncoura Online: https://www.selfedge.com/boncoura

Nope, that story has yet to be told.

SAMURAI INDIGO WINTER FLANNELS & OTOKOGI DENIM JEANS The new NATURAL BORN KILLERS and REPHLEX Samurai winter shirts pull out all the stops. The NBK flannel is a heavy and soft flannel that's been indigo dyed with a sulfur top for an indigo/black look complete with engraved indigo dyed buttons with absolutely perfect construction; they've nailed every element of this thing. This flannel will fade and age as a pair of jeans would over time with regular wear and washing. Samurai’s REPHLEX natural indigo-dyed dobby work shirt is made of a Japanese indigo/black spotted dobby fabric. Aiming for a color tone that resembles layering black dye over indigo fabric, Samurai used thread dyed with a combination of natural and synthetic indigo dyes, plus black thread, and then adjusted the number of thread colors that appear on the surface through weaving to achieve the desired color tones. Compared to both synthetic and natural indigo-dyed threads, black threads are pigment dyed so they don’t fade easily, as the fabric fades the dotted pattern will become more prominent. We also have the 15oz Otogoki indigo denim in both a classic straight leg and slim tapered fit, available at all stores along with these new shirts.

DEVOA X INCARNATION PIECE-DYED HORSEHIDE BOOTS Devoa x Incarnation Piece-Dyed Horsehide Boots, they’re here. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These boots are a collaboration between INCARNATION of Italy and DEVOA of Japan.

With repeated wear over time the leather surface will acquire a glossy shine and the wearer’s creases will become visible on the surface. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These boots are made using a McKay welt construction method and finished with a Vibram Morflex sole.

SEUVAS COFFEE-DYED CAPSULE COLLECTION Seuvas brings us a new coffee dyed capsule collection taking three garments and presenting them in a subtle shade of “coffee” by garment dying them in spent coffee grounds from local cafes in their region of Japan. We have a beautiful 23oz herringbone canvas trucker jacket and two different medium weight canvas shirts, all three naturally dyed in a subtle "coffee" color and finished with a special edition version of the Seuvas porcelain button, this one with little tiny coffee beans hand painted onto the button.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Seuvas is a brand dedicated to the art of producing canvas of all weights. They own their own canvas looms and factory which produces their canvas exactly to their specifications for the right look and texture. They even cut and sew all the garments in their own workshop in Kurashiki, Japan using vintage sewing machines so that the canvas reacts with just the right amount of puckering at the seams. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The only exterior branding on their garments is a single hand-made porcelain button made from clay ore (Amakusa pottery stone) mined in Amakusa City, Kimamoto prefecture, Japan. Amakusa pottery stone is a historic pottery stone that is a raw material which has been used in Japanese pottery since the 17th century. These porcelain buttons are designed by Seuvas and made in the traditional way in Amakusa. Shop Seuvas Online: https://www.selfedge.com/seuvas
