Missed this one..

We've got these coming to all Self Edge stores so we'll have them in-store and online on release day, I believe we got a total of 40 across all of our stores. Excited to finally get these into the shops, the sample we saw in Paris last year looked amazing.

@T4920 said in Self Edge SF, NY, LA, PDX, MX, & ATX:

Just wanted to share that I absolutely love the way SE photograph their models/products.

Haven't purchased from y'all being UK based, but I always use your photos the gauge my interest in pieces, as the natural lighting really does the texture and subtle character of the garments justice.

Thank you so much, that truly means a lot. We spend a lot of time and effort to make sure our photos look a certain way, and messages like this make it worth it!

The last time I posted in this thread was 2009, better late than never I guess.... saw some Grand Seiko talk and had to come drop some photos in of a few models I own!

Austin location still a ‘GO’?

Yup, end of the year!

The Self Edge Bender's Lookbook

The calm solace one finds in a dimly lit dive bar is a feeling known well to many San Franciscans. The deep history of hiding out in a bar goes back over a century in San Francisco. Starting with the Gold Rush days as the capital of California’s lawless “Barbary Coast” to the Kerouac and Ginsberg hang-outs in North Beach in the 1950’s to the Tavern Guild organization of gay bar owners of the 1960’s; San Francisco has seen its fare share of social groups using bars as their home base.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With this lookbook we’ve put the spotlight on Benders Bar and the people who own and work there. Benders is where we’ve called our home base in San Francisco for two decades and which also happens to be around the corner from the first Self Edge on Valencia Street which we opened in 2006. Just a couple of businesses with distinct visions, aging somewhat gracefully.

CRISTINA SPIRIDAKIS, COSTUME DESIGNER FROM THE BEAR

We caught up with Cristina Spiridakis in Athens, Greece. Cristina is the costume designer who purchased white t-shirts from Self Edge 3 years ago and put Carmy (aka, Jeremy Allen White) from The Bear in them for the pilot episode, three seasons in and Carmy is still wearing the same t-shirts in every episode. Not just any plain white t-shirt, one that created such an internet frenzy that we believe it changed the public perception of a white t-shirt for the first time since Marlon Brando wore one in A Streetcar Named Desire in 1951. Cristina’s t-shirt choice created years of endless “What t-shirt is Carmy wearing in The Bear?” news articles, hundreds of memes, online searches for the tee across reddit/forums/discords, a wild sales boom for nearly all high-end blank white t-shirts, endless brands cashed in by using Carmy’s image to sell white tees, and lastly, a newfound mainstream respect for a blank white t-shirt. The humble white t-shirt thanks you Cristina.

For those who were unaware of all this until now.. Carmy from The Bear wears a Merz B. Schwanen 215 loopwheeled t-shirt and a Whitesville Japanese t-shirt from their 2-pack series. Other characters in The Bear may or may not be seen wearing Strike Gold t-shirts.

Introducing Eskhaton - Truly Hand Made Jewelry

We are launching a new genderless jewelry line this week named Eskhaton, meaning the period of time immediately before the world ends. The word is derived from “ἔσχατος”, meaning “last” in Ancient Greek. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This collection is designed, hand-made, and finished by a single person named Tristan Reynolds. Reynolds is a self-taught jewelry maker based in Melbourne, Australia. He normally does not sell to retailers as his work is generally by commission only so we’re quite appreciative of him working with us on this collection of pieces. Over the past couple of years he’s made some signature pieces which have been worn on runways, record covers, and in the press by Rick Owens, Arca, Jhene Aiko, FKA Twigs, Tyrone Dylan, and Michele Lamy. These were not stylist purchases, but personal purchases by these people who appreciate his work. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Everything Reynolds produces is literally hand-made, as in there are no molds, casts, or computer drawings used. All stones are ethically sourced, and if he cannot source a certain gem ethically he has it lab grown for the piece. Much of his inspiration stems from his fascination with the human form and the natural way we age (or as he puts he, decay) over time. You can find a limited selection of Eskhaton pieces now at all stores and online.

DEVOA X INCARNATION PIECE-DYED HORSEHIDE BOOTS

Devoa x Incarnation Piece-Dyed Horsehide Boots, they’re here. ⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These boots are a collaboration between INCARNATION of Italy and DEVOA of Japan. Devoa provided the design and wooden lasts while INCARNATION was in charge of the shoemaking, dyeing, treatment, and oiling process. After the boot is constructed it’s object-dyed black then “cured” in a special oil which gives the horsehide a deep sheen. With repeated wear over time the leather surface will acquire a glossy shine and the wearer’s creases will become visible on the surface. ⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These boots are made using a McKay welt construction method and finished with a Vibram Morflex sole. Now at all stores.

MASAHIRO MARUYAMA WINTER COLLECTION OF EYEWEAR

This week we have four eyewear releases from Masahiro Maruyama’s new collection. All four are made of Japanese titanium and acetate and come with tinted Carl Zeiss lenses with each frame's lens color matching the frame to the designer's specifications. As always, these lenses can be swapped out for prescription lenses by any optician.

All four of these frames are quite unique and the attention to detail in both design and material finish is top notch, truly he's pushing the boundaries of eyewear design and manufacturing.

SEUVAS COFFEE-DYED CAPSULE COLLECTION

Seuvas brings us a new coffee dyed capsule collection taking three garments and presenting them in a subtle shade of “coffee” by garment dying them in spent coffee grounds from local cafes in their region of Japan. We have a beautiful 23oz herringbone canvas trucker jacket and two different medium weight canvas shirts, all three naturally dyed in a subtle "coffee" color and finished with a special edition version of the Seuvas porcelain button, this one with little tiny coffee beans hand painted onto the button.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Seuvas is a brand dedicated to the art of producing canvas of all weights. They own their own canvas looms and factory which produces their canvas exactly to their specifications for the right look and texture. They even cut and sew all the garments in their own workshop in Kurashiki, Japan using vintage sewing machines so that the canvas reacts with just the right amount of puckering at the seams. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The only exterior branding on their garments is a single hand-made porcelain button made from clay ore (Amakusa pottery stone) mined in Amakusa City, Kimamoto prefecture, Japan. Amakusa pottery stone is a historic pottery stone that is a raw material which has been used in Japanese pottery since the 17th century. These porcelain buttons are designed by Seuvas and made in the traditional way in Amakusa.

POTEN WINTER COLLECTION OF JAPANESE BASEBALL CAPS

Poten’s new winter collection is here. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This season we see Poten doing two fitted caps in a 100% work canvas and one adjustable cap in indigo denim and cowhide. These hats are crazy nice, nicer than any other straight ahead baseball cap we've ever seen. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Every cap style has a super soft and supple inner leather headband which has been lightly treated so it’s not destroyed by sweat.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The caps have zero exterior branding except for the stitches which you can see from the top of the crown from the interior branding tags being sewn into the center of the crown. The cap has a medium height crown and the brim has a medium length to it with 19 concentric stitches which feel and look pretty cool in person. If you're into baseball caps, you'll love what Poten is doing.
