I found this denim jacket by Umii 908 and am rather curious about the label. I cannot find anything about it online, except that 45RPM stocks it. The garment is made in Japan. It's of very high quality using metal buttons, as well as metal backer-buttons. Lots of cool details. Any info on the company would be appreciated. I really like this jacket and would like to look into what else they have to offer. Unfortunately it looks like doing so will be tough.... Pic of the said jacket:

Good find! Umii is one the more expensive lines of 45RPM. Did you find it in MN? that's where I am for Christmas, I wouldn't mind going to the store where you bought it

Yeah, Umii is expensive even for 45RPM standards. I tried on some jacket this fall and it was really nice but cost more than $800, and this was in Tokyo. I figure they would be more expensive in the US...


So, good pickup!

I'm jealous. Nice jacket, especially at like 98% off retail.

Its a good find for the price, but honestly... doesn't really look that good to me.

I think this jacket could look great on some people, but you gotta have this kinda steez going. Bobo could probably rock this but it wouldn't work as well with what either you or me are going for, pg2g.
