Denim Brands: Edwin Vintage

edwin

Here is an interesting denim brand for our male readers.

Edwin – an anagram of D, E, N, I, M (reversing the M creating a W) was founded in Tokyo, by Mr Tsunemi, 1947 in response to the expensive and poor quality denim domestically available in Japan at the time. Driven to create his own denims, Mr Tsunemi placed emphasis on sophistication in fits, washes and quality and from this point on quality, craftsmanship, innovation and integrity have been fundamental to the identity and aesthetic of the Edwin brand.

In the 1990’s Edwin created the ‘new vintage’ denim concept, which encompasses the subtle beauty of hand replicating vintage washes from archive references pre-dating 1947. Made in Japan from red selvage denim, all wear and detailing is done by hand and each style is limited to only 150 pairs worldwide! Having such a limited amount available to buy really makes these jeans more unique and special. The brand features raw jeans, distressed jeans, skinny fits and relaxed fits and even styles with suspenders. I think this brand is worth a try guys.

The collection is available to buy at Coggles.com by clicking here.

Edwin is one of my favorite brands, the best washes (but an average fit.

These are the same people that introduced acid wash.

Lastly I just love these http://www.coggles.com/store/item/Edwin%20/86458
