SAMURAI INDIGO WINTER SHIRTS & OTOKOGI DENIM JEANS​

The new NATURAL BORN KILLERS and REPHLEX Samurai winter shirts pull out all the stops.
The NBK flannel is a heavy and soft flannel that's been indigo dyed with a sulfur top for an indigo/black look complete with engraved indigo dyed buttons with absolutely perfect construction; they've nailed every element of this thing. This flannel will fade and age as a pair of jeans would over time with regular wear and washing.

Samurai’s REPHLEX natural indigo-dyed dobby work shirt is made of a Japanese indigo/black spotted dobby fabric. Aiming for a color tone that resembles layering black dye over indigo fabric, Samurai used thread dyed with a combination of natural and synthetic indigo dyes, plus black thread, and then adjusted the number of thread colors that appear on the surface through weaving to achieve the desired color tones. Compared to both synthetic and natural indigo-dyed threads, black threads are pigment dyed so they don’t fade easily, as the fabric fades the dotted pattern will become more prominent.

We also have the 15oz Otogoki indigo denim in both a classic straight leg and slim tapered fit, available at all stores along with these new shirts.

SUGAR CANE NEP DENIM COLLECTION & MORE​

Nep denim jeans and jackets from Sugar Cane have landed. Made of a Sugar Cane original 13.7oz. indigo neppy denim featuring a warp yarn of rope-dyed indigo and a weft yarn of grey with colored nep. The jeans feature double knees only at the knee area and have some interesting tool pockets attached to both legs. The jacket features pre-war changeable buttons, a 3-in-1 pocket on the left chest, and adjustable cuffs.

Sugar Cane’s Okinawa and Hawaii jeans are finally back in stock. The mill producing this denim had some issues running the fabric last year so no retailer had this model in stock for well over a year. They’re finally back, but Sugar Cane has stated going forward they will not be available year round and will only be produced once a year.

We also have a full restock of Whitesville t-shirts, leather belts, and 1955, 1947, 1966, and 2021 jeans.

just throwing it out there for anyone looking for more winter-y shirting: i bought two of the flathead heavy winter flannels that are on sale (the red one and the yellow/orange one) and would heartily rec them, especially given the price. they're pretty substantial and work great for the mild winters i deal with (SW USA), without being overkill like the IH UHFs would be. i wear a L in IH but like a bit of a looser fit so i went with a 42.

BONCOURA LOOPWHEELED FLEECE HOODIES & INDIGO JEANS​

Insanely nice loopwheeled zip-up hoodies from Boncoura are here. These things are heavy, soft, and built like no other loopwheeled sweater we’ve ever carried. They’re that good. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀
These Boncoura hoodies are made of a custom developed 20.5oz loopwheeled fleece. One of their standout features is the hood, designed with a unique structure that naturally stands upright when worn. This thoughtful design keeps the neckline clean and adds a refined touch to an otherwise casual basic hoodie. The silhouette offers just the right amount of room, maintaining a relaxed fit without looking sloppy. The loopwheel fleece fabric crafted by BONCOURA is made using vintage loopwheel knitting machines. These machines operate slowly and gently, placing minimal stress on the yarn to preserve its natural softness and texture. This meticulous process results in a fabric that is soft, smooth, and full of character, offering a rich and refined hand feel. By avoiding undue tension on the yarn, the fabric retains its shape over years of wear and preserves its unique texture, even after repeated washing.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Boncoura's loopwheeled fleece fabric is densely knitted while incorporating air into its structure, a distinctive characteristic of loopwheel knitting. This combination creates exceptional insulation, keeping you warm in colder seasons while delivering unparalleled comfort with its plush feel. This fleece fabric becomes increasingly supple and develops a unique patina the more it is worn, offering a personal aging process.

We also have fresh production runs of Boncoura's two most popular jeans, the XX straight leg and '66 slighty tapered leg jean.
