Self Edge, SF/NY/LA/PDX - updates & info

[kiya]

what about sizing on the m-65?

Because they run so large (and long) we only carry Small and Medium..

The Small works for anybody with up to a 34" waist, and the Medium is good for 35"+...

The Large is so huge that it's essentially like wearing a XXXL because it's so long and wide..

Do you know when you are going to be getting the Real McCoy flannels in?

Self Edge x Sugar Cane = SEXSC06 - THE SECOND COMING OF FIRE

After 9 months of R&D, we are pleased and honored to offer the SEXSC06 Jean; a cutting-edge collaboration style designed by Self Edge and Japan's world-renowned denim brand - Sugar Cane.

Sugar Cane is the pioneer brand that got its name for manufacturing denim and other fabrics crafted from blending some of the world's best cotton and sugar cane fibers, yielding exotic, unparalleled garments that produce absolutely outrageous personality with age and wear like nothing else on the market (and they smell sweet, too, thanks to the generous blend of sugar cane).

The SEXSC06 jeans offer plenty of inseam length on a mid/low-rise, narrow-leg body made with specially crafted 13oz Japanese denim produced from 50% Okinawa cotton and 50% Okinawa sugar cane that is loomed on vintage power-operated shuttle looms in such a way as to duplicate the looser, more-porous, slubby weave associated with hand-powered wooden looms from the 19th century, creating a breathable jean that's perfect for warmer climates.

-13oz Slack Weave Unsanforized Japanese Selvedge Denim

-Hand Loomed Style Denim

-50/50 Cotton / Sugar Cane Fiber Blend

-Reinforced Crotch (Denim Patch)

-Black Anodized Buttons

-Buffalo Leather Tag

-Pin-Check Rear Pocket Lining

-Japanese Sun Stripe Pocket Bags

Once this jean sells through, no further supply will be available due to this one-time production run.

Available in-store at Self Edge on Saturday November 8th at Noon.

Online sales will start at www.selfedge.com on the same day at 3pm.

Retail cost is $305 (with free shipping worldwide as usual).

Sale Info Added...

William Gibson Party at Self Edge - November 9, Sunday

The "I Am Cyberspace" Sale:

15% off everything at Self Edge for those bringing any William Gibson printed material or clothing item to the party (excluding the SEXSC06). For those that aren't local, email us at [email protected] with a photograph of you wearing anything by William Gibson / Buzz Rickson or displaying any work by William Gibson (or your own William Gibson creation) between Noon and 5pm (on Sunday) and we'll reply with a discount code good between Noon and 7pm the same day.

The man and legend himself, William Gibson, will be visiting Self Edge for an intense four hour long party on Sunday November 9th between 1pm and 5pm.

Some may know William Gibson from his venerable writings and creating and leading the cyberpunk genre with his world acclaimed novels such as Neuromancer, Count Zero, Pattern Recognition, and Spook Country. Others may know Gibson from the Buzz Rickson x William Gibson double-name line which is produced in Japan by TOYO (Sugar Cane). In our eyes the line started before Gibson ever met the men behind TOYO as Gibson wrote about a Buzz Rickson jacket that didn't actually exist in his novel Pattern Recognition. A Buzz Rickson black MA-1 Flight Jacket worn by Cayce Pollard set the wheels off and from there we've had reproductions of the most beautiful military pieces as seen through the eyes of William Gibson.

Even a recent set of Porter (Yoshida & Co.) bags has pushed the line even further into the accessory field and a set of classic athletic sneakers has widened the footwear line for the first time into the non-military issue realm.

William Gibson will be visiting Self Edge as a trip to further research all things denim and Japanese and at the same time to celebrate the William Gibson x Buzz Rickson line.

Come by and meet the man behind it all and enjoy a beer brewed down the street in our fine city.

Kiya,

As I recall, there was some discussion a couple of weeks ago about a Self-Edge brand chambray shirt. Are those going to be hitting the store soon, or did they completely sell out at the Inazuma Festival? And if so, is there a re-stock planned?

Thanks

I'm considering the SExIH03s because of the sale and all but I don't have any William Gibson stuff. Think I could get the discount anyways since they are the most expensive jeans in the store?

[james nicolas]

the rules say (or your own William Gibson creation) so just write willam gibson on a t-shirt, snap a pic, and send it to them for a discount
