TOJ-uutisia:
I think it’s because my plane is booked to go to Seoul in a week, or maybe I’m just feeling it, but I’m having epiphanies about the new designs left and right this evening. Brain really woke up from it’s vacation.
I have some great Japanese linen, selvedge broken twill, denim, and waffle knit cotton that I’ll be incorporating, and then we’ll mix in the standby NZ lamb, suede, some Italian and domestic calfskins – gonna use the same leather, horn, ebony wood, and YKK Japan trimmings as usual – here’s a listing of what I am thinking for S/S. Will have to wait for the pics to see where I am going with these and the detailing, but I have these in mind over the next few months.
- revamp on the 2010 DR, 2010 Moto, and CM – some small adjustments
- minimalist waxed cotton duffle, minimalist waxed cotton Chesterfield/lab coat, minimalist fishtail – all with waffle-knit button-out liner
- new varsity
- suede T-1, suede T-3
- knits, all-wool, loose-gauge handknit
- sunglasses, made in Japan, handlaid celluloid or tortoise
- footwear of some sort
- revamped shirting, made in Japan
- denim jeans
- wool formal trousers
- object dyed selvedge broken twill chinos
- a few more outers, maybe some quilted/waxed stuff, etc.
That is my idea board for the evening.
The pants and trousers will be oneLength(tm) so that they can be sent as pants or shorts as desired. Will be looking at what colors and stuff we can do as the materials and production style pans out.
Sanonpahan vaan, et voi jeesus. Klubille tuli tarvetta, taitaa meikäläisen ostolakko kestää just niin pitkään kunnes alkaa noita TOJ:n s/s-kamoja ilmestyä. TOJ-neuleet/vahakangaschesterfield/mokkanahkainen T-1/selvage chinot? Yes plz.
