Strike Gold loopwheeled t-shirts are back, and now available in more colors! These are the ultimate loopwheeled…
…t-shirts, no surprise that they come from Strike Gold, a brand highly dedicated to pushing the boundaries of both selvedge denim and loopwheeled basics.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This heavy 100% cotton fabric is made on vintage loopwheeling machines in Japan. Not many of these machines still exist in the world as they’re difficult to maintain and run at a very slow pace. This jersey is produced and pulled down by gravity to create a zero tension knit, creating that trademark horizontal pattern you seen in a well worn in loopwheeled t-shirt or sweater. Available now in black, white, light blue, and burgundy. One sizing note.. to be able to offer these in XXL they cut up the tubular knit fabric (only for this size) to create a larger body t-shirt, making them (we believe) the only Japanese brand offering loopwheeled tees up to a XXL size.

Here’s Edan from SESF in Boncoura’s first WIDE LEG jean. This is a Self Edge exclusive model produced…
…exclusively for our six stores.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
IN THE (translated) WORDS OF HISASHI MORISHIMA, FOUNDER AND DESIGNER OF BONCOURA: “When talking about denim, it’s impossible to ignore the iconic 501XX. The 501XX was produced for a long time and boasts a wide range of variations in details and shapes across different eras. I’ve personally worn XX denim models from various periods, experiencing the stitching, silhouette, and details. BONCOURA aspires to craft the king of denim, and that’s how the BONCOURA XX was born.”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
DETAILS OF THE BONCOURA 34 JEAN MODEL IN THE WORDS OF HISASHI MORISHIMA, EDITED FOR CLARITY BY SELF EDGE: Here we have Boncoura’s first 5 pocket wide leg jean. Hidden rivets feature the original BONCOURA logo and other details tailored to match the era, including unique rivet shapes. The constructional stitching features a balanced arrangement of yellow and orange threads. The waistband combines single-needle and chainstitching, adding character to the denim. The V-stitch on the fly and the way we sew the belt loops, known as “Banzai,” give a robust touch, making it a bit thicker compared to the 66 jean model. The belt loops have a prominent appearance. The back pockets are stitched in a single stroke. The crotch stitching employs 0-gauge threads, and the coin pocket showcases a meticulous use of the fabric’s selvage. The hem chainstitching combines orange and yellow threads. We use a wide range of stitch gauges, from 0 to 50, and three different thread colors to achieve this comprehensive detailing.

MITCHELL PATTERN camo M-65 jackets from Buzz Rickson are here. The Mitchell pattern camouflage fabric,…
…originally used for tents and helmet covers to provide camouflage, began to be used for locally made jackets and trousers during the Vietnam War. Due to their local production, these garments were rare and came in several variations. The print, similar to the World War II frog skin pattern, featured double-sided printing for jungle and desert environments. The material is a heavy satin fabric, with the leaf pattern side using the fabric’s reverse side.
