The "Ishikawadai" series is a tribute to vintage craftsmanship, using traditional methods that date back to 1953. At the heart of this creation is a Japanese ring spinning machine from Ishikawa Seisakujo, believed to be the oldest of its kind still in use today. Despite its age, this machine remains invaluable to denim production due to its unique qualities and slower operating speed—about one-third the pace of modern machines.

This slower operation brings distinct advantages. The machine applies minimal stress to the cotton fibers, preserving their natural characteristics. This results in a fabric with a rich, uneven texture reminiscent of hand-spun cotton, something nearly impossible to achieve with today’s computer-controlled machinery. The irregularity in the weave lends the denim an authentic, antique-like appearance, in sharp contrast to the uniformity of modern textiles.

The indigo-dyed warp threads embrace the raw qualities of the cotton, bypassing the usual refinement processes to preserve the fabric's natural texture. The production techniques used are intentionally low-tech, honoring the methods used in 1953 and capturing the essence of vintage denim.

Each garment made from "Ishikawadai" denim transforms with wear, evolving over time much like classic vintage pieces from earlier eras. These jeans aren't just clothing; they are living, evolving records of the craftsmanship and artistry from which they were born, preserving history for future generations.

In terms of fit, the "Ishikawadai" jeans, like many other SDA models, tend to run slightly small in the one-wash version. We recommend sizing up for a comfortable fit, but it’s always best to check the size chart. The jeans are unsanforized but have been one-washed, so no additional shrinkage will occur.

Studio D'Artisan, founded in 1979 by Shigeharu Tagaki, is renowned for reviving the classics under the motto "Reconstruction of Great Old Things." As a member of the Osaka 5 and a pioneer of Japanese denim, the brand takes great pride in recreating French and American workwear with a focus on authenticity and tradition.

• Crafted from 13oz unsanforized Japanese selvedge denim, these jeans have undergone a one-wash treatment to ensure no additional shrinkage.
• Made from 100% cotton, the fabric features a slubby, hairy texture that enhances its vintage appeal.
• With a mid-high rise and a regular straight fit, these jeans offer a classic and comfortable silhouette.
• The warp is dyed indigo, while the weft is white, giving the denim its traditional appearance.
• Details include a white selvedge line, hidden rivets in the pockets, and a peek-a-boo selvedge coin pocket.
• Heavy-duty bar tacks reinforce high-stress areas, and the herringbone-patterned pocket bags add durability and style.
• Custom SDA copper buttons, raised belt loops, and an Ishikawadai leather patch further elevate the design.
• A free Ishikawadai Tote Bag is included with each pair.
• Proudly made in Japan.

Crafted in limited quantities, these jeans are meticulously hand-dyed by skilled artisans using natural indigo and akane (red madder). The thicker yarn used in the hand-dyeing process results in a distinctive, uneven texture, setting this denim apart from the standard 15oz varieties.

The "Hinode-Awa Shoai" series draws inspiration from Japan’s rich heritage of colors, evoking a sense of warmth, familiarity, and deep comfort. To mark their 45th anniversary, Studio D'Artisan has created denim that embodies the spirit of "Japanese colors," combining indigo and madder red dyes. The natural indigo is applied through the traditional "Awa-Sei Aizome" method, requiring approximately 30 wash cycles to achieve a rich, harmonious shade. This process highlights the living quality of indigo, which deepens and transforms with time and wear.

The weft is dyed with plant-based akane (茜) or red madder, a dye that has been part of Japan’s history for centuries, even appearing on the national flag during the Meiji era. The deep indigo created by the "Awa-Shoai Aizome" method blends seamlessly with the rich red madder, producing a fabric reminiscent of noble attire from Japan’s past.

These straight-leg jeans feature a mid-rise and are finished with the signature Studio D'Artisan touches: custom copper buttons, high-quality pocket bags, and a thick cowhide leather patch. The patch was stitched on after the jeans underwent a "tempi" treatment, a painstaking and costly step that required returning the jeans to the sewing workshop post-wash to ensure the best possible finish.

Like many other SDA models, the Tokushima D1866 runs slightly small. It is recommended to size up from your usual fit, but be sure to consult the size chart for accuracy. The denim is unsanforized but pre-washed, so no further shrinkage will occur.

• Crafted from 100% cotton, this 15oz unsanforized Japanese selvedge denim is hand-dyed using natural indigo for the warp and akane (red madder) for the weft. It comes in a one-wash version, ensuring no shrinkage.
• Featuring a regular straight fit with a mid-rise, this denim provides a classic silhouette.
• The denim has an ultra slubby, hairy texture, created by a low-tension weave.
• Hand-dyed in Tokushima using traditional methods, the denim showcases a striking red selvedge line.
• Thoughtfully designed, these jeans include hidden rivet pockets, heavy-duty bar tacks, raised belt loops, and a peek-a-boo selvedge coin pocket.
• SDA’s custom copper buttons and a 0.3mm cowhide leather patch add refined details to the piece.
• Pocket bags feature original "45th anniversary" artwork, commemorating the milestone.
• Limited in quantity, each pair includes a custom 45th Anniversary bandana.
• Made in Japan.

Marking Studio D'artisan's 45th Anniversary, the "Triple Selvedge" denim stands as a symbol of the brand's ongoing creativity and mastery in denim craftsmanship. These jeans, known for their raw, selvedge ID lines running throughout, are an impressive feat, crafted with multiple seams. Studio D'artisan has reimagined their original "DO-1" denim model, expertly manipulating the shuttle loom to create vintage denim with nuanced textures and subtle slubs. To minimize shrinkage, the jeans come pre-rinsed and are equipped with a range of unique features, including a buckle-back waist adjuster, durable canvas pocket bags, and a special hair-on hide patch to commemorate the occasion.

Throughout Studio D'Artisan's impressive 45-year legacy, one fabric stands out as the ultimate symbol of tradition and craftsmanship: their signature denim. Renowned for being one of the most difficult fabrics to produce, it highlights the brand's unwavering dedication to the art of denim making.

This special denim captures the essence of selvedge construction, achieved by skillfully narrowing the power loom’s width—a complex process that is rarely undertaken in Japan. By doing so, Studio D'Artisan has set a new benchmark for selvedge denim, encapsulating their rich heritage.

They embarked on the ambitious task of narrowing the loom’s width to an unprecedented 20cm and 38cm, producing the narrowest selvedge denim ever made. This extraordinary feat blends tradition with cutting-edge technology, creating new possibilities for denim design.

The true value of this denim lies in its deep connection to history, craftsmanship, and innovation. The "Triple Selvedge" design was crafted using custom-made panels, inspired by a similar design featured in Studio D'Artisan's 20th anniversary collection, further emphasizing their legacy of pushing the limits of denim construction.

Key Features:

• "45th Anniversary Triple Selvedge" DO-1 denim
• 15oz rinsed selvedge denim

The "Billiken" collection by Studio D'Artisan honors a beloved and iconic figure deeply rooted in Osaka's culture. This figure represents far more than just a symbol; it embodies good fortune, prosperity, and positive outcomes in various aspects of life. Known for bringing success in business, academic achievements, and matters of the heart, this deity holds a special place in the hearts of locals. Visitors often partake in the tradition of gently rubbing the soles of its feet, believing this act will help their wishes come true.

Interestingly, this figure, now so closely associated with Osaka, actually originated in the United States around 1908. It was created by Florence Pretz, an American artist, who envisioned it as a whimsical embodiment of happiness and luck. Despite its American beginnings, the figure quickly made its way to Japan and became deeply enshrined in Osaka’s cultural identity.

At the base of the statue is an inscription: "The God of things as they ought to be." This phrase reflects the belief that the deity governs the ideal form of life, ensuring that everything will eventually align as it should. The Japanese translation reinforces this notion, portraying it as a guiding force that brings circumstances to their rightful and harmonious state.

Over time, this deity has become far more than just a figure of good fortune. It is now a cherished part of Osaka’s identity, symbolizing the city’s unique spirit—a blend of tradition, optimism, and resilience. Studio D'Artisan’s collection embraces this legacy, offering more than just artistic inspiration. It celebrates the figure as a testament to Osaka’s enduring charm and cultural heritage.

For visitors and locals alike, the figure serves as a comforting presence, a symbol of hope, and a reminder that some things transcend time and place. Through this collection, Studio D'Artisan ensures that this beloved cultural icon continues to inspire and bring good fortune to all who encounter it.

 This model highlights the legacy of Toshiie Maeda, a renowned military commander celebrated for his exceptional skills as a spearman and his role as the shogun's trusted right-hand man. Known by the name "Mataza," which he received on his coming-of-age day, he was a formidable force on the battlefield, feared for his expertise with the spear.

He governed the region known as Kaga (modern-day Ishikawa Prefecture), an area now famous for its gold leaf production. The gold stitching and design on the leather patch pay tribute to this traditional craft and industry. The buttons are adorned with a plum and pine motif—where "pine" is pronounced "matsu" in Japanese, also the name of his wife—while the plum represents his family's crest.

The yarn used in this denim is a unique, extra-thick count of 2.5, an unconventional choice for denim production. It is dyed using 100% pure indigo rope dyeing, achieving the darkest possible shade. The fabric is woven on an old-fashioned power loom, resulting in a rough texture, with the thick yarn woven as densely as possible.

The selvedge is crafted with a special technique, intertwining glittery threads, predominantly gold, to create a thick, striking edge. While this description may sound simple, the production process is anything but.

Rope-dyeing and weaving this thick, uneven yarn on a power loom follows the standard denim-making process. However, the sheer thickness of the yarn places immense strain on every step. The 25oz non-standard fabric exerts extraordinary pressure on the loom, leading to frequent thread breakages. Additionally, the thick weft yarn necessitates frequent shuttle changes, causing the loom to stop every few minutes.

The daily fabric output is minimal, and given the stress on both the fabric and the looms, the production team is understandably hesitant to continue. Yet, they have persevered, driven by a shared commitment to creating the finest heavy denim.

In other words, this is truly a rare and valuable denim.

However, the challenges don't end with the fabric; constructing jeans from this material is equally demanding. The weight and thickness of the fabric significantly complicate the sewing process. The strain on the sewing machines is immense, to the point where mass production of 25oz denim requires constant machine repairs.

In comparison, 21oz denim is often considered manageable or even "cute." But 25oz denim stands in a league of its own. The dedication and hard work of the craftsmen who bring this remarkable product to life are truly admirable.

The patch design features Toshiie holding his iconic long spear, with the Maeda family crest on the right, both stamped in gold. The patch also includes a limited edition serial number.

The theme of "gold" is prominent throughout the design, as seen in the samurai seagull stitching on the lower hip pocket. This is a fitting tribute to Toshiie, who ruled over the Kaga domain, now known as Kanazawa, a region famous for its wealth, once producing one million koku of rice.

The stitching uses thick gold lame thread, resulting in a striking and bold design. Similar to the previous Year of the Dragon model, the samurai seagull stitching and the red piss name tag are exclusive features of this limited special edition.

The buttons are also distinctive, including the "Kinmatsu button," familiar from other limited edition models, and the "Geisha Ume button," used on the Geisha model. Both buttons carry meanings unique to this edition:

• Toshiie's wife, "Matsu"
• The Maeda family crest, "Plum"

The bag fabric is made of red herringbone slush, adding to the overall luxury of the design. Red thread is used throughout the stitching, symbolizing the image of a renowned eccentric.

For those who recognize these details and think, "What?", they can be considered true jeans experts!

An additional unique feature is the placement of the coin pocket, which is on the opposite side from the norm, located on the left front pocket. This design choice is inspired by Toshiie, who was famously known as "the fork of the spear (left)."

The pocket bags are crafted from the original Samurai's dragon-patterned fabric, which they also used for this season's aloha shirts. The sewing specifications highlight green and yellow accents. Additionally, they designed a new flasher and leather patch specifically for this model. The fabric is their signature 21oz denim, and the silhouette is a regular straight, with slightly slimmer thighs compared to our S510XX regular straight.

Samurai once again presents its annual model, this time dedicated to the Year of the Dragon for 2024. For this edition, they have utilized their iconic Kiwami fabric and adorned the jeans with numerous details, such as the dragon-patterned pocket lining fabric featured in their Dragon Hawaiian Shirt, iron-made gold Taiko buttons, and green stitching referencing the dragon's scales.

These jeans feature a classic and comfortable regular straight cut, designed to provide a timeless fit for individuals of all styles. With a mid-rise waist, they offer a balanced silhouette that effortlessly combines fashion and functionality. As with many other Samurai Jeans, this limited edition runs slightly small in the one-wash version. In general, it is recommended to choose one size larger than your usual. The jeans are unsanforized but one-washed, so there will be no further shrinkage.

The denim used is their heavyweight 21oz Kiwami fabric, meticulously woven on a vintage wooden shuttle loom using a blend of US and Australian cotton. The yarn is a unique #4.5 x #4.5 original slubby yarn, adding texture and character to the fabric. Only the most skilled and accomplished weaving craftsmen were able to tame the looms that created this durable denim, weighing over 20 ounces. The dedication and expertise of these craftsmen are symbolized by the strands of red and gold lamé running along the selvedge line of this exceptional 21oz denim masterpiece.

Featuring a relaxed straight cut with a roomy rise and generous space in the hips, these jeans pay homage to the iconic denim styles of the World War II era. Samurai dedicated themselves to authenticity, meticulously researching the period’s cotton yarns and examining every detail, from thread thickness and distinctive thread colors to historically accurate stitch width. They then infused their unique Samurai magic to craft a truly exceptional piece.

Made from 15oz Texas cotton spun into slubby #6 threads, this denim strikes a perfect balance between weight and texture. Although it is relatively lighter compared to other Samurai denim varieties, the fabric's hard texture and inherent roughness have garnered a loyal following among denim enthusiasts.

In their quest to replicate the original specifications of jeans from that era, the designers incorporated several unique features. The olive-colored herringbone pocket bags add a touch of vintage authenticity while providing durability and strength. Additionally, they chose to preserve some of the uncut portions of the fabric—a detail typically trimmed or removed in modern jeans—to stay true to the construction methods of the time.

These jeans are more than just a piece of clothing; they are a tribute to a bygone era, meticulously crafted for those who appreciate the fine details and historical significance of vintage denim. Whether the wearer is a seasoned denim collector or someone who values quality and craftsmanship, these jeans offer a timeless blend of heritage and contemporary style.

"Introducing the 'Sasaki Kojiro' 25th Anniversary Special Model"

Crafted in homage to Kojiro Sasaki, renowned alongside Musashi Miyamoto as a master swordsman, this special edition pays tribute to his legacy with Samurai's iconic leather patches. Exclusive to milestones like Samurai's 10th, 15th, and 20th anniversaries, this model boasts a unique cutting technique reserved solely for its production.

The fabric chosen is a bespoke lefthand twill denim, characterized by its rugged yet velvety texture, woven from our distinctive Zero 17 oz. yarn. Drawing inspiration from Kojiro's legendary finesse in wielding a sword, capable of slicing a swallow in mid-flight with a meter-long blade, this design embodies a harmonious blend of resilience and refinement.

Embracing a timeless aesthetic, the silhouette features a classic buckle back and a regular straight cut, reflecting the enduring allure of traditional craftsmanship.

Kojiro Sasaki, celebrated as one of Japan's most illustrious samurai, stood as the formidable adversary of Musashi Miyamoto. His fateful duel with Musashi on Ganryu Island in 1612 marked the climax of their rivalry, leading to his demise. Revered for his mastery of the 'clothesline' sword, Kojiro's life beyond the battlefield remains shrouded in mystery, adding to the enigmatic allure of his legend.

Left-hand twill denim indeed offers some distinct characteristics compared to the more common right-hand twill. The direction of the twill weave can affect how the denim feels, wears, and fades over time.

The claim that left-hand twill tends to produce a softer fabric is attributed to the way the fibers are aligned in the weave. In left-hand twill, the diagonal lines slope from the top right to the bottom left, which can create a smoother texture. This can result in a fabric that feels softer to the touch, especially after washing and wearing.

Additionally, the way left-hand twill denim fades differs from right-hand twill denim. The fading pattern is influenced by how the indigo dye wears off over time. Left-hand twill denim may exhibit a more subtle and unique fading pattern compared to right-hand twill denim, adding to the individuality and character of the garment.

Ultimately, the choice between left-hand twill and right-hand twill denim comes down to personal preference and the desired aesthetic and feel. Both weaves have their own distinct qualities and appeal to different tastes in denim enthusiasts.

Crafted from 15.0oz denim and dyed with natural indigo, these jeans boast a timeless charm with a modern twist. The use of natural indigo imbues them with a unique, soft three-dimensional texture, accentuated by the uneven nature of the dye. Notably, the rich warmth characteristic of natural indigo elevates their appeal.

Despite being dyed with natural indigo, these jeans undergo a medium-white rope dyeing process, which imparts a classic aesthetic while allowing for distinct fading patterns. This combination offers a balance between the traditional allure of natural indigo and the clear contrast of fading.

Featuring a relaxed tapered silhouette (108 type), these jeans offer both comfort and style, making them a versatile addition to any wardrobe.

These jeans are crafted from denim woven on Japan's inaugural power loom, the G3, revered as a legendary artifact.

Such denim embodies the rugged and weathered aesthetic reminiscent of vintage workwear, a testament to the expertise accumulated over years of denim craftsmanship. Specifications include a Regular Straight silhouette (101 type) and a weight of 14 ounces.

These are 15.0oz selvedge jeans featuring "Ai Shibu dyed" treatment. Ai-shibu dyeing is an intricate and time-intensive technique, involving initial dyeing with real indigo to achieve a vibrant blue hue, followed by layering with persimmon tannin. The indigo dyeing results in a deeper color compared to regular methods, with the persimmon tannin intensifying in hue with use, thanks to tannin's property of undergoing condensation polymerization over time.

Persimmon juice, also recognized for its high antibacterial and deodorizing properties, has been historically used in Chinese herbal medicine. Japanese culture, with its reverence for the changing seasons and the ephemeral beauty of nature, finds expression in the colors achieved through indigo dyeing. These hues, passed down through generations, are known as "Japanese colors," possessing a profound and captivating allure that resonates deeply with admirers. The silhouette of these jeans is a regular straight fit.

This jeans is part of TCB's collabo with Viktor Fredbäck!
Viktor is a great denim collector who probably owns over 400 pairs of jeans and he teamed up with the brand to make something unique. 

Made with EMOT cotton, a blend of East Memphis, New Orleans, Texas cotton and finished with prima cotton which gives the jacket the brown/cream result we can all witness.

This model/cut has been inspired from a piece which was dig out from the gold mines in the Nevada desert, can you believe it? It was something the workers at the beginning of the 19th century were wearing. This pant was built after a pair of Olympic Brand, which was a sub label of Levi's back in time.

Say Hi to one of the rarest denim jeans we ever came across. Hand-dyed with Kakishibu, a natural dye taken from the juice of persimmons fruit. The whole process was guaranteed only for a really small amount of pieces, considering its very hard and unique work.  The fruit contains a strong tannin and it reacts to the sunlight so the color of this jeans changes with time and sun exposure. This traditional method disappeared for a while due to high speed consuming market which took place in the Japanese community as in any other country. Samurai is proud to bring the method back to life considering its very natural and ancestral dye.

This denim is very slubby and irregular made with superior quality. The buttons are covered in gold, the selvedge id is red and silver Lamè. Thick 3mm cowhide leather and a real straight cut makes this pant look even more beautiful.

This fabric is made by three different thickness yarn to have a vintage vertical fading and very unique “structured denim”. Each yarn is very slubby and it gets dipped into the indigo many times using the "rope dying" traditional technique.
Made with mixed Usa and Australian cotton with slightly low-tension weaving, the fabric was then sent out to Italy to get hand sewed by Holy Blue artisans in a small lab in the amazing Venice area.
