I went a couple weeks ago in nyc when they got their overdyed new denim in... it looked pretty fresh. But my only issue was they overdyed the denim on the inside of the leg too!!! Hence blue indigo legs, boxers, & socks??? -weird....

that's a really interesting concept..

to dye both the warp and the weft..

but like the earlier person said, wouldn't this heavily color your legs?

they're nice. from what i remember the cut was basically like the sorahiko. it was funny when they were trying to explain the jeans to me when they first got them- i was in a rush so i couldn't stick around- so the next time i came in the guys wrote me an explanation in english to the best of their abilities explaining they died the warp and weft with two different types of indigo. that's why i love 45rpm- they're so nice. hell they even sent me a goodbye email! maybe i'll pick up a pair of these or the umii's down the line.

just curious...what about the jeans didn't impress you???

when i was in taipei i checked out the store.

i gotta admit its expensive, jeans didnt impress me, now the shirts/sweaters/pants there are amazing.

it was like 280 or 300 for some really nice pants, almost bought em. not crazy enough.

What's a gauze shirt?

Does anyone have pics of the Jomon charcoal wash? Is it basically similar to the Sorahiko black overdyed wash, except in natural indigo?
