Hey @kiya, any update on the Imperial drop?

Introducing Hermanos Koumori - Mind Tools from Mexico City

We’re happy to announce we’ll be carrying Hermonos Koumori at all 4 of our stores in the US.  This has been a brand we’ve been stocking at Self Edge Mexico for 4 years, and it’s been one of our best selling lines there for the past few seasons.  Hermanos Koumori is a graphic heavy line influenced by ancient Aztec and Mayan cultures with a heavy link to running; all types of running, mind running, physical running, spiritual running…. The line was started in 2018 in Mexico City by Alex Sandler and Alex Leon; we’ve gotten to know them very well over the years and are excited to bring their collection to the states.

Introducing Devoa - Textile Research & Development from Japan

Devoa is a Japanese artisanal clothing line which was started in 2006 by Daisuke Nishida, the same year we started Self Edge. Nishida majored in psychology and minored in human anatomy studies, but after college followed his passion of wrestling and ended up becoming a professional wrestler, then coached wrestling for years. As a side job Nishida worked in high end retail stores and showrooms in Tokyo for years and in 2006 quit wrestling and retail to start his own clothing line. The basis of Devoa is the exploration of the human anatomy with a high focus on textile design. Nishida is extremely hands-on with the line and fully involved in all design, sourcing, production, and even wholesaling duties. We’re excited to bring Devoa to all five Self Edge stores starting this week, definitely stop in and check out the line, much of it needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated.

What you see online is what is available at our four stores in the states, we have a completely different selection of Devoa at our Mexico store. New releases from Devoa will be landing at all stores every 3 months.

3SIXTEEN X SCHOTT 20YR HORSEHIDE PERFECTO + DENIM SHIRTS & JEANS 

3sixteen's eighth annual collaboration with Schott NYC coincides with their 20th anniversary, and this season they’ve worked with Nick Horween to develop a new horsehide recipe for this jacket. The leather starts out as a deep black color with little brown undertones which are visible when the jacket is new, ensuring that this thing will age beautifully. The jacket is finished with brass zippers, nickel snaps, black satin lining, a hidden inner chest pocket, and has had the epaulets and belt removed. 

Also from 3sixteen we have new denim crosscut western shirts, classic tapered indigo denim jeans, and a new version of their short sleeve henley tees which are now rinsed.

Yes! Have a pair in the cart waiting but will head up to SELA to try some others. 
 

Side note: your product filter system is so nice Kiya. Really helps when trying to slim down the perfect pair.

Thank you so much! We really tried to use all the specs for jeans and tees to help narrow down what you're looking for due to high number of choices.

Really interesting in that latest Flat Head flannel (grey/black ageism), but I've never owned Flat Head. I remember trying them on in store once and everything was too small but the measurements look like a 40 would work. Has their flannels gotten bigger?  My other Ultra Heavy Flannels from Iron Heart are XL. Should I go 42 to be on the safe side... also to help with any shrinking?

Flat Head's flannels have increased in sizing over the past few years, so they're not as small as they used to be.  With a cold wash and air/line dry you'll get about half a size of shrinkage over 4 to 8 washes.

Thanks! I think I will order a 42 for Black Friday.

Just picked up an Oiled Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket (Olive) at Self Edge SF and love it. 

I expected to be a Large, given IH shirts in XL (most have said to size down on the N1). But XL fits well -- slightly big with a tee shirt but perfect with a long sleeve shirt or flannel.

Appreciate that IH chose not to line the sleeves with alpaca. The quilted satin lining is perfect -- less bulky and more comfortable.

Thanks Kiya.  Really good service from Nicholas and Paolo today -- helpful and knowledgeable.  Online shopping has taken over, but it was great to get into the store on a clear day in San Francisco and pork out on a carnitas burrito in the Mission District after visiting the store.

You'll love that deck jacket, it's one of the best outerwear pieces we've ever carried.  I know it was chaotic in there but we appreciate you making the trip in today!

Ok thanks.  Let me ask you first.  I purchased the darkshadow pod shorts in black.  Based on how they fit now I do not want them to get any smaller in the waist.  After a soak/wash I know they will shrink but do they end up stretching back fully?  if not then I will want to size up 1.
