Edwin - "JAPAN" Video

The denim guys over at Edwin put together this fantastic video, simply titled "Japan" that loosely follows the manufacturing process of their jeans, but also gives an amazingly accurate look into everyday life in Japan...

Maybe it resonated with me a little extra for having lived that life, but they captured that working class/ blue collar life in Japan pretty damn well. The people who you might never notice but keep everyday life in order, from the man controlling the subway platform, to the dude in the tiny stand still chef-ing up something for you at 1am. So if the point of this video was intended to strike those chords, it definitely worked.

Check the store locator on their site to find out where you can try on some Edwins yourself.

Edwin Denim x Liberty London

Edwin has gotten together with Liberty London for a nicely detailed pair of their ED-55 cut, 14oz raw selvedge Japanese denim...







The ED-55 cut is a regular fit with a tapered leg, which is hard to come by but a great look, especially in raw indigo. Added to the pair is a signature floral print from Liberty that can be seen on many small details on the interior of the jean. I really with the inside of the legs was lined with the print also, because that would allow an absolutely amazing cuff, but with such a traditional brand like Edwin, that's probably a little too much flare.

Limited to 100 pairs, and available soon through Liberty.
