Unknown Japanese Brands

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Not a Japanese brand but made from 14,5oz Japanese denim (made in China). However a nice Levi's repro with all the usual details. The price is also very nice at around 450 CNY

 

Now to the pics.

Bronson 801XX

Hoggy, the bloodhound!

Speaking of Bronson, I've just received a B10 jacket of theirs, this one

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.408.qGMLr3&id=37509161944

 

very happy with it, it's really well made and it's a heck of a deal for the money, even with proxy fees and EMS shipping.

Will try to post a few photos over the weekend.

Fit Pic as promised:

 

 

 

Denim is quite nep-py, very soft (would estimate ~13oz), perfect for tropical weather.

Like Front pocket placing, makes it easier to retrieve things (remind me of Jelado & Rising Sun)

Not too sure about the red stitching on the left rear side, might take it out when I break this pair for real.

 

Pretty happy with the fit overall. 

I might wear with small cuff, don't think it needs any hemming.

 

Cheers!

Anyone heard of a brand called "Name Value"? i got a jacket by them like, 6 or 7 years ago... 

I got a pair of their jeans  about 7 or 8 years ago from a Buffalo Exchange up here in Portland.  They were kind of a 501 cut with hidden rivets, buckle back, decently heavy red line selvedge, and the ones I got were lined in a cream bandanna material.  I always figured they were sold at Buffalo by one of the Japanese exchange students attending PSU.  I tried the website on the label but it didn't work even back then.

Those do look nice, really like the khaki/olive pocket bags and yoke lining. 

Patch kind of reminds me of UES.

Sherlock strikes again

 

edit: seeing the Jap retail price, I expected them to cost way over 400 GBP...but with 250 it sounds nearly reasonable

Well that just makes me want a pair even more!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Yeah, noticed that too

Oh, the British shop claims the denim being dyed with natural indigo.

So hog, you get a pair?

[aho]

hog,

 

ボンクラ = "bonkura"

 

 

 

Obscurely, one common term reoccurring in looking up Boncoura is ãƒœãƒ³ã‚¯ãƒ©

 

I'll leave you to translate.

 

You'll see it in here amongst other places!

[slugabed]

great to see Boncoura trending world wide.

i will post some pics of the pairs i possess later on.

 

any request to which details to post?

[Broark]

These look quite nice, might have to consider them for sure.

I'd be interested in seeing all the detail shots you've got!

[themaster]

Fucktardlly expensive

^Not to my taste personally but the construction looks tops...In the end, it really comes down to personal preference but really we're talking about niche within niche within niche...At this level, all the jeans we talk about are going to be better than most everything else out there, just depends on what you're looking for. As I've never actually handled them, I can't speak to if the price matches the quality in Boncoura's case but really all the brands we're into have fabrics custom made to their own specs, have used vintage talon fly's, etc etc.

 

Personally, I don't see the need to pay over 25000yen when I can get quality products for below that

Yeah jeans looks great qty awesome but price is too much
