PURE BLUE JAPAN WINTER LINE & TEA-CORE DYED JEANS 

 

You've heard of tea-core dyed leather? Now we have tea-core dyed denim, a first by Pure Blue Japan. Using the same black dying techniques used on many Japanese horsehides PBJ has created a black denim which fades to a deep brown hue in high friction points with regular wear. This denim has a black weft and a tea-core dyed black over brown warp. We've seen worn in samples of this denim in person and it looks absolutely wild. 

These are now available at all stores along with new denim jackets and kasuri chambray shirts.

Any reason you aren't carrying any smalls in those thermals, @kiya? i'd consider one as an underlayer for a motorcycle trip, but would like it to be a little more snug-fitting than the measurements suggest. Or is there any shrink left in the merino? Thanks in advance, beautiful colour choices this time round!

The small is more like a X-Small, and if you plan on washing it as opposed to dry cleaning it it'll end up being more like a XX-Small or smaller.

MERZ B. SCHWANEN WINTER COLLECTION AND T-SHIRTS 

We’ve just received new Merz B. Schwanen winter colors in tees, sweaters, socks, and underwear and a huge restock of previously released t-shirts, underwear, and sweaters in various fibers and colors, all loopwheeled, and ready for the winter.

Over the past six years Merz B. Schwanen has slowly turned into many of our clients’ favorite basics brand. The combination of attention to detail, breadth of textile styles, and various colors and fibers has turned Merz into a basics powerhouse. Cotton garments are made of organic Greek cotton then loopwheeled on vintage knitting machines in Germany and finished with vintage-correct construction and trim. Everything from the knitting to the cutting and sewing is done in-house at Merz. The attention to detail in their tees, sweaters, and underwear is impressive and we're excited to be able to expand what we stock from them.

DANDY'S 2024 EYEWEAR COLLECTION 

The new 2024 collection of eyewear from Dandy’s is here. The new collection consists of four new models made in their own workshop in Segusino, Italy. 

Many of their shapes and styles are inspired by Enzo Ferrari who built his legacy just a couple of hours away.  The studio has been producing eyewear for 45 years using only original Italian acetates and in-house designed stainless steel hinges.  They believe modern production methods have become too precise and polished so some of the frames are literally unfinished, giving the frames a very natural human quality.  Some are partially unfinished, some are completely unfinished with the machine markings from the cutting of the in-house acetate. It’s quite wild, and extremely unique.  Most of the frames are larger than all the eyewear brands we currently carry; great if you’ve been wanting a larger or bolder frame.

STUDIO D'ARTISAN NATURAL INDIGO DYED DENIM JEANS 

Studio D'Artisan knows their way around the finer details of working with natural indigo, so it's no surprise that their new SD-808 jean is made of such a beautiful fabric. This new denim is slightly hairy when new, has a light slub character due to the medium staple cotton used, and has been rope-dyed meaning it will age in a slightly more dramatic way compared to many other natural indigo dyed denim fabrics. These come in a straight tapered fit with a medium rise and the jean is finished with herringbone twill pocket bags.

We've also received a new run of their 14oz denim western shirts, and now available up to size 46 for the first time.

MASAHIRO MARUYAMA TITANIUM & ACETATE SUNGLASSES 

This week we have nine new titanium eyewear models from Masahiro Maruyama’s new 2024 collection. All nine are made of titanium with Japanese acetate temples and come with tinted Carl Zeiss lenses with each frame's lens color matching the frame to the designer's specifications. As always, these lenses can be swapped out for prescription lenses by any optician.

These frames are quite unique and the attention to detail in both design and material finish is top notch, truly he's pushing the boundaries of eyewear design and manufacturing.

POTEN SPRING COLLECTION OF JAPANESE BASEBALL CAPS 

Poten’s new spring collection is here and some caps are now available in an adjustable style!

This season we see Poten doing two fitted caps in Vintage Hopsack Gray and Hunter Camo and one adjustable cap in Vintage Hopsack Green fabric. These hats are crazy nice, nicer than any other straight ahead baseball cap we've ever seen. Every cap style has a super soft and supple inner leather headband which has been lightly treated so it’s not destroyed by sweat.

The caps have zero exterior branding except for the stitches which you can see from the top of the crown from the interior branding tags being sewn into the center of the crown. The cap has a medium height crown and the brim has a medium length to it with 19 concentric stitches which feel and look pretty cool in person. If you're into baseball caps, you'll love what Poten is doing.

INTRODUCING BONCOURA - THE LONGEST PATH TO COMPLETION 

We are excited to announce a new brand added to the roster of lines we carry at Self Edge, Hisashi Morishima’s Boncoura. Morishima was born and raised in Amerikamura, Osaka, a place known for its abundance of American vintage clothing and imports, all within biking distance from his home. From his early school years, he immersed himself in thrift stores, drawn in by vintage Made-in-USA clothing. Over the years he became obsessed with vintage basics such as jeans, t-shirts, and fleece hoodies. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

After working for a major Japanese department store, Morishima thought to start his own business. Although starting a thrift store would have been fitting, considering his collection, he had a different vision. He explained, "I can't modify vintage clothing myself. So, if I want to express myself, I'd rather create it. I've worn plenty of vintage XX, and based on that experience, I decided to make the jeans I wanted to wear. I never once considered it a business; it's purely an extension of my hobby." With this idea, is where Boncoura started. 

While Boncoura is an extension of his hobby, it's precisely because of this that he refuses to compromise. Every recipe, from the origin of the cotton to blending ratios, yarn twisting, and the concentration of pure indigo, is entirely original and exclusive to his brand. The attention to detail we’ve seen in his garments isn’t something we’ve seen from many lines over the years and we’re excited to show you what Morishima has been creating.

The inseam length on those Boncoura jeans are too short for most westerners.
