I came across them in the Lightning Denim Guide and they look intriguing... and they seem to have a very reasonable price point ( the 1959S model starts at Y12600)
All I know about them is that they're produced in China ( lower overhead = lower price) and that they are the brainchild of the founder of Evisu jeans.
Anybody have more info on them? I know tg76 and hap have picked up some pairs...
