The Compulsory "First Post"

Here goes the first post. The purpose of this blog is to serve as a diary about my jeans collection, and to document the wear, tear, washes and soaks of them. Other than that I plan on uploading pictures of my jeans; most likely with me inside them, and in different situations.

The above images are of me with my hand dyed indigo Evisu Deluxe jeans, at a raw and unpainted stage; this was shot at the Savile Row Evisu Saburo, which is the HQ and flagship store, where I also work as a Sales- and Marketing Consultant. They will have the trademark seagull logo painted on them by colleague and designer Kanji Kohanda of Evisu. I'm thinking purple to match the details.
