18 East

@NickPollica
Some patterns you may appreciate from a couple weekends ago in Mexico from an Indian beach wedding

Is the red shirt you’re wearing on IG, with Young Iron Man begins you, a long sleeve shirt?
How about the dark brown?/indigo one with the paisley details?
Also, is the 18 East stuff going to show up as part of the RR website?
Finally, what’s the fabric on the green jacket with the pattened back?
I signed up for their newsletter just in case.
Can’t wait for September!

The red PJ shirt is long sleeve, though we will have a ss version in kalamkari cupro in spring. There are no brown shirts in the collection - there is an olive floral and a black and indigo paisley - both are a new LS band collar model. The jungle jacket is made from a hand-dyed khadi (traditional hand spun, hand woven fabric that takes no electricity to produce). The back piece is cut from a woven tapestry I found in the markets of Kathmandu.

Here’s a little preview of some other good things coming in September and the place that inspired them:

As of today @18eastofficial is up and running. It will be the best place to get previews of the collection before the 9.15 launch.

I'll see you and raise it.

Jacket retails for $425, sweater is $295, jeans (limited edition run if 10) are $325.

What comparable shape on the jeans? Or is it like a refurb 501 type deal?

Btw. I commented on your IG that I needed those. And I do. Like now

They are upcycled vintage 501s that have a slight taper from the knee down and cropped length. We only had enough leftover fabric from the collection to make 10 pairs (roughly 2 per size).

Some of the clothes remind me of a more wearable version of Niche (the hard-to-find Japanese brand). I'm excited to see the rest of the collection soon.

Okay, so I know nothing of RR, but how are these distributed? Are there retailers? Online? Stores?

18 East will launch direct to consumer with an ecommerce site (18east.co - not live yet and forwards to rollerrabbit.com) and bi-coastal pop ups (NYC & LA, potentially SF) in partnership with some good friends.

I've been drooling over those cords for months.

will you offer shipping to Canada?

Looking into this. We are using the Roller Rabbit back end and initially I didn't think that meant international shipping but not sure.
