Wrote a poem for this fit. Is doesn't rhyme, sorry Bobbin's flight suit Bobbin and his awesome flight suit that he won't let me go halvers on so that even though its not important AT ALL he gets to say it's his and keep it at his house and even if I borrow it we both know that really it belongs to h...
We've been really lucky (or savvy) regarding minimums. Because we already had good relationships with a lot of mills they have all been super keen to help us with small minimums, freebie sample yardage etc. We want to use this as an opportunity to promote beautiful, traditional fabrics that are not ...
We have a figure now but it's not finalised so we don't want to disclose it. Because we're producing in England the prod costs are more on a level with Japan than say Turkey. That said we want as many people to be able to share our enthusiasm! We aren't doing this to take a salary so the first colle...
Yeah. What he said ↑ The reason for our name is pretty simple though it can be interpreted in so many ways. My personal favourite interpretation is that we want each of our products to tell a different chapter of the story of indigo, from the local manufacturing traditions to the manufacturers thems...
Used to love these jeans but then Primark had to go and do an almost exact replica (minus the selvedge) for like a tenner which puts me right off. Plus Watanabe's jeans are so recognisable. Unique repaired vintage any day! And is that a Marques Almeida top? Fashion denim overkill much..? The shoes t...
Most people have different names on here, Twitter, IG etc etc and I'm SO rubbish at keeping up with who's who's so might start a hashtag for IG. To you know, share the love even more! Anyone interested? #caretags ..?
randomthought - You were in the scouts? Awesome! I was in the Girl Guides back in my village in Northumberland (smiling) I love this rucksack... but then the heaviest I have to carry is my Mac and the furthest I have to walk is about 5 miles. Goes with everything too. But I can imagine how your exp...
Yeah I bloomin' love it there! Though its always FREEEEZING when I go (maybe its just freezing there all year round, hmm..). Have been trawling Happy Cow and there seems to be quite a healthy vegan scene (arf arf) there...which I guess figures. Weed, hippies, veganism…
Im going to Amsterdam on Friday (simultaneously researching Vegan dining options as I type!) then straight to Paris for the Denim by PV tradeshow. PLUS booking a Japan holiday/work trip for next April with bobbin. Have been to Kyoto and Tokyo a few times but am planning to spend a few days up to my ...
Ah, the famous un-lendable Versace silk shirt. I was told that the Japanese word boro translates as 'rags' and describes the method of patched repair using scraps of available fabric. I think it was mainly used by farmers in rural Japan donkeys ago to mend their futon covers and work clothes (noragi...
Me and Bobbin have a "little DIY project" that I believe he's already hinted at to you guys. Today we (me..Bobbin will be making me pumpkin curry while I do it but he doesn't know it yet) are pattern cutting the jacket. Yes, JACKET!! We're too excited about this. http://i.imgur.com/qz3rTcB...
Bobbin thought my first WAYWT post should be a double whammy. Here goes (excuse the bathroom selfies)... http://i.imgur.com/xceFe4tl.jpg Military coveralls, Seattle Seahawks cropped tee, belt and converse http://i.imgur.com/E045wlBl.jpg Deadstock chambray shirt, 1950's work jeans, prison-issue boots
