今日は本当にたすかりました。

You were a great help today.

Good evening, everyone!

 

Every Tuesday, Goto, who works solo, writes the blog, but today, since our foreign helper (who is actually Japanese) Emanuel Yamaguchi Simon came to help, I was freed from the hectic solo operation and able to move around freely!

 

 

Thank you, Emanuel-kun!!

 

 

Well, this morning, as expected, the first thing we talked about was the "Ema's Cannon Problem."

 

Huh?? Cannon?

 

 

It's my first time hearing about it... he feigned ignorance.

He pretended to think for a bit.

 

Hmm...

About this much...

 

He had a face that suggested he was being considerate because I was in front of him...

 

Oh, it's actually about this much!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Shut up!

 

 

 

 

 

And so began our morning exchange.

 

 

What is the cannon?

 

 

Please ask Emanuel-kun about that another time.

 

 

I decided to nickname him "Kashiwa's Cannon."

 

But that's enough teasing. Ema, you were a great help today. Thank you so much to all the customers who visited us looking for denim!

 

Thanks to you, we're constantly running out of stock.

 

 

So, let's talk about denim again.

Even with the same '47 model denim, there are various different characteristics. Both the left and right are '47 models, but the left is a late model, and the right is an early model, which we started producing this time.

 

As you can see, the stitching path for attaching the pockets is quite different.

 

The shape is also different.

Even if you look at a '47 early model from the same period that served as the basis for this black-tag 301EXX, I think it's a quite distinctive denim.

 

Well, as I've said many times, the stitching along the pocket opening has an interesting texture.

 

When you turn it inside out, there's this much excess...

 

This is the normal seam allowance.

 

It's great to have these subtle differences.

 

 

Also, the fading and overall atmosphere are quite highly perfected, I believe.

 

The left is the '47 early model.

The right is the 301EXX, worn for 5 months, also known as the black tag.

 

Don't you think the way the color fades and the vertical fading are quite good?

 

 

I'll keep working on it for another six months and then it'll be finished!

 

Comparing them, the changes have been quite good, so I'm very satisfied!

 

 

I still have a mountain of things to do, so I'll tackle them one by one!

 

 

Sizes for both the 301 white tag and black tag have started to run out, so I'd be happy if you could come try them on as soon as possible.

 

Local dealers are also running low on stock, so if you have a favorite shop nearby, please try to visit them soon!
