Self Edge x Dry Bones x Superfuture

While this might just sound like another great pair of denim pants by Self Edge's Kiya in collaboration with one of his choice Japanese artisans, it's actually pretty special. The fact that an actual Internet forum has the power and influence to essential design it's own pair of jeans - and really good ones - is pretty crazy. Over the last few years Superfuture has obviously grown into a massive resource for mainly male clothing, although it does have other functions, or so I hear. I still find it pretty cool how websites and forums are able to grow an online community so strong that it is able to produce a high quality product in the real world. Of course a lot of credit has to go to Self Edge and Kiya Babzani as a highly involved member of Superfuture and purveyor of fine denim in North America. The tag was designed by a Sufu member as well, which came out really nicely. Overall a great jean for a reasonable price of $275. It will go on sale February 28th at Self Edge and in their online store. I would not expect to see them last very long. Details on the denim below. "With the SEXDBXS09 jean we've allowed the users of Superfuture and Superdenim to give their input on styling, cut, and accents for a very special jean to be released on February 28th; even the leather patch was designed by a renown artist from Texas named JimmyC from Superfuture. The SEXDBXS09 jean has been produced by Dry Bones, one of Japan's longest running vintage Americana style denim manufacturers. Months were spent getting the denim exactly where we wanted it and the denim was woven for this project; as the denim has never before been used on another garment nobody knows exactly how it will age. Self Edge has chosen a denim with a little more weight than the classic styles, at 16oz it's got heft to it, and with massive amounts of character showing from the warp and weft it's sure to age well. The fit is that of a straight leg jean, slightly slimmed down, with a button fly and a long inseam which can be hemmed to the wearer's length without altering the silhouette. We're proud the way the denim has turned out, it's something we've never had in the store before. The denim has been calendered and singed, yet hasn't lost any character which is instantly recognizable even at a quick glance. Rounded out with hidden rivets, cowhide leather tag, Superfuture dual-tone "Rep Bar" stitch, military grade green rear pocket linings, coin pocket selvedge, and a cotton poly-core stitch; this jean is exactly what we want to be seen in."
