Brands for 2014

[LA Guy]

We used to do this a lot more. So here are some newish brands but I'm watching for 2014:

A Kind of Guise: http://akindofguise.com

Over All Master Cloth: http://oamc.com/

Yup, I can see A Kind of Guise catching on in a big way around these parts. I think it already has.

As for me, I've been all about Lee Roach lately. All those straps were off-putting when I first heard about him a year or two ago, but this year his particular brand of minimalism has been hitting the spot for me (though I still have yet to handle a piece). And OC is carrying the line this season

Also, it'll be cool to see the direction Abasi + Rosborough goes

Niche.

Obviously there are similarities to Needles/Nepenthes (designer is ex-Nepenthes after all) and some other brands, but it still has its own distinctive vibe. I expect some people will try it now NMWA are stocking.

Buming this thread. Anybody experience the above brands this season?

 

[LA Guy]

I haven't. Instead, I've been getting into these Japanese do Americana brands like Blue Blue Japan and Visvim. The latter, nice, but hardly a value proposition. The former, definitely something for denimheads to graduate to.
