Warehouse Duck Diggers 1920


I really liked the 1920 Duck Diggers, but felt that their cut was too slim for the style, so I up-sized from 33 to 36. The cinch takes up the slack in the size difference.


These are from the Warehouse store in Osaka. They were purchased in a one-wash state, which was surprising, because online retailers all appear to have them for sale only in raw.

The decoration stitching, re-inforcing, and interesting pocket shapes are unique, but retain a vintage sense.







The cinch and belt loops appear to be of a different grade of denim to the rest of the jeans.

The cuffs are finished with a double chainstitched hem.

Hey Indigofan,
Great blog, nice to see I am not the only "furugiya" fan in Sydney. I used to work in the Daikanyama (Naka Meguro) Evis Store, and am still quite close with the guys there and Hiroko from Bar Walt Muffin (Co Owner of Evis). If you want to see any rare old Evis genes, send me an email.. I'm around Circular Quay everyday..

Hi Ethan,

Thanks for the nice comments.

I'm actually in Melbourne.

Your blog and collection are excellent. I'm learning a lot from you.

I hadn't heard the term furugiya before. Perhaps it is a good word to describe what I like.

Cheers
Matt

Hi Indigofan,

we are having a lengthy discussion about Duckdiggers over on Superfuture... I've included some links to this entry, but no direct links to your pictures, out of respsect for your bandwidth. If you 're interested, we'd appreciate your input :)

Fantastic blog, btw! Hopefully I get to put your maps to use sometime soon!

Great blog-

Great make on the Duck digger, but not pure enough for my taste. i do really like some of the details though, like the double cain stitch hem- works great on utilitarian style denim roughwear.
