Kohzo Sasawashi - Where can I buy a pair?

[mgroup]

Anyone know where I can get a new pair? Yoox is soldout and the Kohzo website doesn't have any store details. i.e phone number etc. Thanks in advance for the replies.

ll of KOhZO’s fabrics are 100% natural. unlike most of today’s jeans that are made of cotton with synthetic and sulfur dyes, KOhZO uses exclusive, rare, and totally pure ingredients. these include washi, a traditional japanese paper, as well as hibiscus, bamboo, pineapple, cannabis, and much more. KOhZO dyes consist of pure indigo, vegetable, natural mud, fruit, and charcoal. and KOhZO fabrics are semi-hand woven on traditional shuttle looms. so you won’t find the artificial treatments and unnatural finishes that exist on most of today’s jeans.

whoa.

while washi = japanese paper, what does sasa translate into?

do you like them poly? what would you say the cut is similar to?

[fade to black2]

those look like very expensive jeans.

And he got them only for $63 or something like that *drool*

Thanks aubrgene for the info. Will call American Rag this weekend to see if they have the Sasawashi. Anybody know any other stores that carry them?

it's a regular straight leg modern jean. sounds very vague, but imagine putting on a pair of jeans that aren't repros, that's basically it. They're nice for what they are, as you can see i removed the back pocket stitching...they only had size 31 so it's a size or 2 up from what i normally wear, might put these up on supermarket eventually, the only thing that sucks is that i hemmed them up at 45 rpm

where did you score those poly? And who is that in your avatar?

yoox last year in a 50% off sale...tagged as like 340euros, also scored a pair of denime xx for the same same price. ~$60each.

the girl is maria ozawa. check the supertrash thread for more pics

I love yoox.

the only thing that puts me off is the low rise on their jeans. think im too used to wearing repro styles with their long frontage

[tays]

The Archive in San Francisco carries Kohzo, but I don't know what kind they have. Call them Arthur is super friendly and helpful.

www.archivesf.com

Archive currently has the regular cotton, selvage, one wash Kohzos. $495 each.

these arent lowrise, these are actually pretty high rise.

i was actually looking at getting some of these. cant argue with the price.

i think the style you have maybe higher rise than these? what do you think?

also what inseam were yours when they arrived as this doesnt have a measurement.

thanks

I was looking at that pair too but I'd like to know if they're raw, if they're selvage, which line they're a part of, etc

[percy]

i just decided to order a pair and see how they turn out, as they are so cheap. can always send them back if i dont like them.

[poly800rock]

they probably aren't selvedge....don't look raw, my sasawashi's weren't raw

[blm14]

If you look closely at the back pockets and hems though there is some obvious indigo-looking stains that makes me think they are at least one-wash...
