met Hayashi-san at the Tokyo Bears store, tried the 710 and 711 and had to go with the 710. FYI I've noticed Paraboot has been picking up some steam in sufu - Hayashi-san mentioned he uses cream polish on his nubucks as he likes the resulting shine.

sweet jesus, these are awesome

Regardless, throwing shades through social media is not the best look for any company, I think we can all agree on that. I also would like to know what they're lying about

kind of on topic, but this real mccoy x lewis leathers deerskin is my grail jacket. too bad it has no place in my budget at the moment... http://www.realmccoys.co.jp/blog/shop/2019/03/lewis-leathers-supermonza.html

speaking of skinny cuts, i picked up a pair of dior 17.5cm mij raw a few weeks ago on heavy discount. looked up and confirmed the product number etc... nothing terribly exciting about the denim but the fit is on point. going to be a big transition from my loose cuts =p

he doesn't specifically make a post where he is sand papering his denim, but if you look through his instagram pictures his jackets and jeans show several questionable features (the most obvious giveaway being the spinner / phone marks in his back pockets and denim jacket front pockets)

he's obviously free to do as he pleases, but there's so many things i disagree with that guy - sand papering raw denim at the top of the list

any of you guys own a jacket from Addict Clothes (Japan)?

Speaking of Japan and LVC, the Harajyuku store is releasing a limited edition run of LVC 1966 501. Made in Japan with all the english text translated to Japanese. Not sure about the denim.. the catch? Going to retail for 66000JPY

Fantastic pair, Collin!

the fades look sand paper-ish as well

Naoto3!お久しぶりです。 新ブランド立ち上げるそうですし、もうかっていなかったそうでしたので方向転換ですよね～。 フラへは持っていませんが、値段も他のレプリカジーンズよりちょい高めですね。

the press release implies that they will keep their core products - don't think TFH jeans will be going away

yea, im not feeling the patchwork jackets. i was hoping to pick up one of their 40th anniversary jackets, but they all fit too boxy on me

that's dirty. success is the best form of revenge, kiya!
