Pure Blue Japan's Pop-Up Beige Jeans, Loopback Military Henley Tees, & Special Jean Rinse Process
This week from Pure Blue Japan we have a new jean, an amazing summer weight loopback indigo-dye henley t-shirt, and an introduction to their new jean rinse process for Self Edge.

All new models and future restocks of Pure Blue Japan’s jeans at our stores will go through a special rinse process we developed with PBJ which is exclusive to Self Edge. With this new process the jeans are lightly soaked inside out in warm water then naturally air dried; there is minimal shrinkage left in the denim while the jean still feels rigid due to the "at home" style rinse process. These jeans have not gone through any industrial washing or drying processes as to retain as much of the raw denim feel as possible while getting rid of any shrinkage which takes place during the initial wash of an unsanforized denim jean.

Their new PBE-019 17.5oz model has a very interesting process used for the warp yarns. They've used a beige yarn as the base of the warp then dyed the yarn with pure indigo until it's a deep indigo blue color. This looks beautiful when raw and sure to age in a very interesting manner once worn in.

We've also received a new summer-weight loopback henley t-shirt which is pure indigo dyed, has lockstitch construction throughout, and comes with metal buttons on the placket.

Both of these items are available now at all of our stores.

How much are the PBJ going to stretch with wear?

How much are the PBJ going to stretch with wear?

If they're fairly tight in the waist you'll get about 1" of stretch within 6 weeks or so, especially if worn without a belt. If they're not super tight in the waist stretch in the waist will be minimal.

Nine Lives x Good Art Belt & Self Edge Graphic T-Shirt #6
Two great new releases this week from Nine Lives x Good Art and our in-house line of graphic t-shirts.

First up we have an absolutely beautiful belt made of the most luxurious hardware you can find. Good Art took care of the sterling silver buckle set, Italy's famed Badalassi tannery took care of the tanning of the cowhide, a pair of 80 year old Japanese craftsman who only work on belts took care of the cutting and sewing, and Nine Lives made it all happen.

We also have a new addition to the Self Edge Graphic Series of T-shirts; this one is named Paradoxical.

Both of these items are available now at all of our stores.

Introducing Fine Creek Leathers - A Horsehide Only Line from Tokyo
We are excited to introduce Tokyo's Fine Creek Leathers, available for the first time in North America. Fine Creek makes some of the most beautiful horsehide jackets we've seen. Using a vegetable tanned Japanese horsehide, which ages in a fairly fast manner, they cut and sew these jackets in their own little studio in Tokyo. The quality of stitching is as good as it gets for a leather jacket, and we've not seen many jackets age as well as these do. Depending on the panel they'll use a different type of stitch thread and thread count to achieve puckering in certain areas for added character.

With the first release we have Fine Creek Leathers' take on the classic Type II jacket. The way the front chest pleats pull and pucker with wear is truly a sight to behold. This comes in as a classic fit with just a hair of length added to the body. Please check the product page on our site for a full spec list of information on the jacket's materials.

In three weeks we'll also have the Leon Custom which is a double-riders style jacket!

New Studio D'Artisan Shirts, Jeans, & Socks
We've just received a fresh shipment from Studio D'Artisan containing new short sleeve shirts, a new jean, and two models of socks available in various colors.

The Mr. Mountain shirt is made of a custom 70/30 cotton/nylon blend fabric and comes in an indigo/dark or washed down dark sand version.

Studio D'Artisan have used Suvin Gold cotton to made a short sleeve oxford shirt. This shirt has a great fit and a very unique soft hand especially for a medium weight oxford fabric.

The new SD-108 jean is a straight tapered fit made of an unsanforized (but rinsed) 15oz denim. We find the fit on this model to be very good, just the right rise and leg measurements for the perfect straight tapered fit.

We've also received two new styles of socks, both available in a variety of colors.

Flat Head Chromexcel Engineer Boots, Shell Cordovan Wallets, & 3005 Jeans
Flat Head's long awaited engineer boots are here. These are made in small batches by a small shop which generally only produces boots for Flat Head's line of footwear. Made of a natural pull-up Chromexcel leather, the amount of natural oil in this leather is unreal due to the aniline "dying" process the leather goes through. This run was custom made for Flat Head so that the boot will show a little extra wear from even occasional wear. These will look wild once broken in.

These come complete with custom made brass and iron buckles, Vibram's #700 and #705 heel and sole, a hand stitched shaft seam, and a Japanese made steel shank for sole stability.

We've also received Flat Head’s new small shell cordovan wallets. Made of a shell cordovan from Japan’s famed Shinki Tannery; these are pigskin lined and fully hand sewn in-house at Flat Head’s own leather workshop in Nagano, Japan. Available now in dark tan or black.

Lastly we finally have a restock of the 3005 model jean made of Flat Head's famed 3xxx denim. These are available exclusively at SELA and via our online store.
