A new delivery from Tokyo denim giants
Edwin has just arrived instore at
Fat Buddha Store,
bringing us this great Hunter Gilet which forms part of the brands collection for Autumn/Winter 2012. Established in Japan in 1947 by Mr Tsunemi who had a passion for
denim.
He began to import them directly from the United States as no denim was
manufactured in Japan at that time. In 1951 domestically manufactured
denim was available for the first time in Japan. The product was
expensive and inferior in quality compared to its American counterparts.
Mr Tsumeni was driven to create his own denims, with greater
sophistication in fits, washes and quality. From this point on in
Edwin
denim history, quality, craftsmanship, innovation and integrity have
been the main ethos and aesthetic of the brand. In 1961 the first pair
of Edwin jeans were born, crafted by Mr Tsunemi. Using the letters D, E,
N, I & M (reversing the M creating a W) he created the brand name
‘Edwin’.
The Hunter Gilet features front pocket detail, removable Shanks buttons, blanket lining, is quilted and comes in a Camo colourway. You can check out more images below.
The Hunter Gilet is available instore and online now at
Fat Buddha Store alongside lot's more from Edwins collection of clothing and denim, check it out
