@scarfmace check out that jacket above. I would have bought that one but the measurements were a little off for me. It's super nice.

Totally understandable, thanks for the update @kiya. Once we can actually travel again, we're hoping to make it down to Baja so I'm looking forward supporting y'all at SEMX!
That would be great, we love having our long time clients make the trek out to the Mexico store. Our offerings are different at that location and the surrounding area is super fun.

Hey @Filthy , Yea I know! The IHJ-64 is still on my mind aswell. The main reason why I'm leaning to FCL or Y2 is because they are not chrome tanned.

The Black 1947 Jean from Sugar Cane & Whitesville Blank Tees!
For 74 years we’ve been waiting for a Japanese made black/black 1947 jean, and they’re finally here. Sugar Cane has taken 1947 jean, which we could say is the most solid classic straight leg jean fit of all time, and made it out of their 13oz yarn-dyed black selvedge denim. This fabric has a sulfur dyed warp and a reactive dyed weft, this gives you a deep black jean which will age over time with some decent character, similar to how an indigo jean will age with regular wear. These are now available up to size 40 at all stores and online.
We've found that over the years one of our best selling blank t-shirts is Whitesville's Japanese made tees which come in 2-packs. We can rarely keep these in stock so we've had them do a production run for Self Edge so we can be fully stocked across all stores this spring. These are available again at all stores in black, gray, and white.

Poten Summer Collection of Japanese Baseball Caps
Poten’s summer collection is here!
This season we see Poten doing their caps in two new fabrics and a restock of their most popular cap. We have a new blue cotton and linen blend, a very nice washed out black linen, and a restock of their black nylon cap. These hats are crazy nice, nicer than any other straight ahead baseball cap we've ever seen.
Every cap style has a super soft and supple inner leather headband which has been lightly treated so it’s not destroyed by sweat.
The caps have zero exterior branding except for the stitches which you can see from the top of the crown from the interior branding tags being sewn into the center of the crown. The cap has a medium height crown and the brim has a medium length to it with 19 concentric stitches which feel and look pretty cool in person. If you're into baseball caps, you'll love what Poten is doing.
All three of these caps are available now at all stores and online.

@kiya thanks for replying to my IG message… I don't suppose you have any fit pics of the hat? I am seriously lusting after the blue one. I have fitted MLB new era hats in 7 5/8 that never got comfortable. I always wish I had a larger size...

New Spring Releases from Seuvas
One of our favorite shirt brands has ventured into the world of flannels for the first time and it seems they can do no wrong. Seuvas come through with a shirt made of an original selvedge flannel complete with double-needle construction, gusseted side seams, and their signature single Amakusa pottery stone button as the only external branding.
It’s no surprise that Seuvas is capable of producing such nice flannels considering all textiles and even the sewing is done in-house in their own factory in Okayama, Japan.
Last season one of the biggest hits at our stores was Seuvas’ first foray into a non-canvas garment with their indigo chambray. For their new summer collection they’ve taken that same chambray and done a double-indigo version with an indigo warp and indigo fill yarn. This creates a much deeper and darker indigo shade compared to a traditional chambray fabric.
Both of these shirts along with a restock of a few of their greatest hits are available now at all stores.

We were just going over all the details of these shirts with some staff and it's unreal the attention to detail and finishing on these shirts; the only reason they don't cost a bunch more is because the company is full vertical, they make the fabric and do all the cutting and sewing in-house.

Pure Blue Japan SR-019 Super Rough Jeans
Pure Blue Japan's 18oz Super Rough denim is now available in their straight tapered fit. This is the most impressive fabric we've seen from PBJ in quite some time. This 18oz denim is woven at a very low tension with a super short staple cotton, giving the fabric extreme character. These feel and look amazing even when new and are sure to look insane with some wear.
You can find these along with the slim tapered SR-013 version at all stores.

Really Nice Loopwheeled T-Shirts from Merz B. Schwanen
Over the past four years Merz B. Schwanen has slowly turned into many of our clients’ favorite basics brand. The combination of attention to detail, breadth of textile styles, and various colors and fibers has turned Merz into a basics powerhouse. Cotton garments are made of organic Greek cotton then loopwheeled on vintage knitting machines in Germany and finished with vintage-correct construction and trim. Everything from the knitting to the cutting and sewing is done in-house at Merz. The attention to detail in their tees, sweaters, and underwear is impressive and we're excited to be able to expand what we stock from them.
We have fresh runs of their loopwheeled t-shirts and underwear along with two special releases.
We now have their new Sea Island cotton t-shirts, these are so special they come with serial numbered hologram tags. We believe Merz B. Schwanen have made the world’s first Sea Island cotton loopwheeled t-shirt. If you’re a fiber geek or need to enter the final level of the nicest and softest blank t-shirt you’ve ever seen, this is for you. These t-shirts are wild soft and are available now in white or black.
Lastly we have a fresh run of their mulesing-free fine merino wool loopwheeled tees, available in black or natural. All these items are available now across all of our stores.

I am so blown away by the stuff I got from Self Edge! I am disbelief how nice this Poten baseball cap is!!! The leather sweatband is super soft and luxe. So is the material the hat is made of. It fits my head like it was made for me. Even a little loose (which I prefer).
I am excited to wear the Merz shirts too… But I am gonna save them for tomorrow. I am so tired.I sincerely appreciate the continual excellent stuff and service I receive from Self Edge and @kiya thanks so much man!

Thanks a lot

Lovely frontal pic on the cap @Filthy . Somehow you got the visor to look tan instead of blue. Very neat effect.

Flat Head Flannels, Denim Shirts, and Cordovan Small Wallets
This week we have two new shirts from Flat Head and a fresh run of all six styles of their Shinki shell cordovan small wallets.
First up we have a Self Edge exclusive flannel! This fabric part of Flat Head’s heavy winter flannel series and is made of Flat Head’s heaviest selvedge flannel which have been double brushed on the interior for comfort and wind resistance. These shirts are finished with real mother-of-pearl inlayed buttons and double-needle and chainstitch construction.
Next up we have an item they've been making with small tweaks every year for over twenty years, a snap buttoned selvedge denim shirt. These things are made of a pure-indigo dyed 10oz Japanese selvedge denim and finished with real mother-of-pearl snap buttons.
We also have Flat Head's Shinki Tannery shell cordovan small wallets in three styles and two colors. All six wallets are hand-cut, hand-sewn, pigskin lined, and made in-house in Flat Head’s own leather craft workshop in Nagano, Japan.
You can find all these items now at all stores and online.
