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

[ssheat]

I'm almost sure kiya was being facetious with that comment, especially with the way the SENY guys responded.

Anyway, I was about to drop by the store today, but I didn't for some reason. It would have been pretty awesome to have been there while Paul Smith was there.

[Osmosis Jones]

hey kiya, remember the ironheart superblack rider's jacket that i always tried on?

i'm trying to decide on the size because the 36 was decent but i might wear it with a sweater underneath cause it's cold these days. would i be better off with 38?

So what's this I hear of Flat Head making a The Wild One jean? Any truth to the rumor?

[vjiforlife]

Kiya, any re-stocks on Sugarcane shirts? New flathead stuff?

[kiya]

[datguy]

[LandoCal126]

I'm sure Sydney has to take photos first. I would guess next week but I'm sure you can call into the store and order them. Kiya will have a more accurate answer shortly I'm sure as he is currently in a plane on the way to Japan...

Some Self Edge press on newsstands this month... Here is Kiya in Complex Magazine with chocolate on his face. They asked him some pretty funny questions about denim.

And here is Self Edge New York featured in this month's Details Magazine. It's a two page spread about the best boutiques in the LES:

i still can't believe time out ny hasn't listed your store.

I think Kiya missed the "affordable" part of that last question Although I certainly don't dispute the quality of those brands, don't get me wrong. I'd love to see an article from Kiya or Gordon that delves deeply into what sets quality denim brands like those mentioned apart from mediocre denim, preferably in a major publication, so maybe people wouldn't think we're all crazy for spending $200-300 on one pair of jeans.

[kiya]

I've never understood the meaning of the word "affordable".

[big truck]

If you can pay for it - you can afford it? Surely?

[everyinchofgod]

I've never understood the meaning of the word "affordable".

Haha! Touche!

[zissou]

Here is Kiya in Complex Magazine with chocolate on his face.

lulz. chocolate jeans? You forgot to mention the combover.

They seriously should have just used a photo. Kiya's hotness just can't be expressed in paint.

[Stacks]

It feels like the interviewer has little understanding of the market.

Tell us Kiya, readers want to know, what is the next big trend in denim washes?

My money is on shin fades.

For the record, here's the entire interview complete with a freaky painting of my wife too:
