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

[kiya]

Thank you SE for the "get lit" zippo and dry bones keychain. Zippo is now firmly placed in the coin pocket of my MBB'S.

You're welcome, glad you like it!

Hey Kiya — What's the story with that new indigo Stevenson hoodie I just saw at the store? Pretty rad.

Its a hoodie made of Gima yarn, a yarn so dry that the Japanese call it "paper thread". Its 100% cotton but spun at a very fast rate with blowers pointed at the outstretched yarn so that it pulls all the moisture out. The resulting yarn is like twisted paper and the fabric that its turned into is crazy rigid. Stevenson had a set of custom colors made and did a set of hoodies and t-shirts out of it.

We're getting both the hoodies and tees, they're wild as shit, i'm robokopping.

Yup, we can repair those! Bring them with you when you come to the SENY party next weekend.

If I'm a 34 in Imperial SEXI 14, should I take a 33 Flat Head SEO5BSP? Waist is a little lose in my Imperials so the smaller waist should be no problem.

Yup, sounds about right, a 33 in the SE05BSP.

Hey Kiya,

I bought the SG3109's from SESF about 3 weeks ago, and had them hemmed and shipped to me. Just letting you know that I had to pay an extra $1.90 because the package said it weighed 1lb, but I guess it really weighed 3lbs. Just letting you guys know just in case this is something new/something you guys don't know about.

Thanks for the recommendation by the way. Loving the denim so far.

i can't believe you signed up to complain about $1.90. jesus christ.

[reallypeacedoff]

i can't believe you signed up to complain about $1.90. jesus christ.

Maybe that's a weeks worth of wages for him [sarcasm]

[rosarkar]

I don't think $1.90 is the issue nessssssss is concerned with after buying $400 jeans... it's the fact that the charge 1) was unexpected and 2) could show up regularly on future Self Edge orders.

Yes, lets get ridiculous. April 27th at SENY, 6pm to 10pm.

I'm probably just SOL, but is there any restocks of The Flat Head Flannels coming anytime soon? I'm especially looking for a blue western in 44 or a Glory Park Blue Cream in 42...

Nope, there are never restocks of FH shirts, they're all made to order.

Kiya, Can you please let me know which denim you have is the best for warm summer time? I have found that i can't just use the weight as the determinant, as my favorite summer jeans are some ONI denim because they are so breathable. They are much better than a super lightweight denim that is tightly woven. Thanks for any suggestions.

I would say the 1109 and 1105 from Strike Gold and anything from RJB.

We won't be carrying that model, the only new model which we wanted to stock is the Prospector which we just got two weeks ago at the stores.

[ALB]

Gah. I need to know.

You guys wouldn't happen to have the Dobby cloth Feilder shirt in your shipment from Stevenson would you?

[kiya]

Nope, we didn't order that shirt. But we did get 6 other items and we're getting another 5 or 6 in a few weeks.

yeah, i know it sounds ridiculous. I just didn't want the store to have any future problems with this, as I do think they're quite awesome.
