Denim Rarity

Recommended Posts

I'm going to pick up my second pair of selvedge. I am deciding between a few brands.

My question is: assuming I like the fit of all these, which jean do you think is the rarest in the states? I mean rare in that maybe 6 months to a year from now I won't find these in a store anymore. I've heard people in the US having difficulty buying some of these jeans at a retailer, and maybe I'm just lucky in that there are some stores in LA that are carrying these brands right now.

My choices are: 5EP, Nudie, Sunday N Company, Earnest Sewn (dry selvedge), PRPS (one wash selvedge). I figure it would be one of the first three. I don't know if the selvedge from Earnest Sewn is limited, and I haven't seen too much of the one wash PRPS although the brand is really spreading like wildfire.

Thanks in advance for any opinions shared.

i've never heard of sunday n company actually. any website etc? among the other 4, i found 5ep and earnest sewn dry to be the harder ones to find. so far, i have only seen the earnest sewn at henry lehr NYC (surprising that atrium does not have them). as for 5ep, i can only find them at union. but again, there's always hanon shop for online order i presume? i second that prps is spreading like wildfire, it's everywhere here, memes, atrium, nom de guerre etc.

Sunday N Company (I think that's the fully name, anyways it's Sunday N something).

The denim is from Japan and I've heard the designers are from Japan, but then someone else said they were from NY and just buy the denim from Japan. They have shirts and I think some canvas pants. Not really feeling their other stuff. The selvedge is like a standard 5 pocket levi's derivative. No details to speak off, just seem well made.

Union in LA doesn't carry 5ep.

Thanks for the info hahnstch.
