I've welcomed my partner for 2026.
JELADO's Last Resort, the gold-tagged war model.

Honestly, I'm more excited about how it will develop from here than its "finished form."

I plan to wear it almost every day until Golden Week.
No holding back. If you see me, I'll likely be rocking this outfit.

TCB jeans 50’s

1 year wear comparison.
No tricks, no shortcuts.

Worn daily, washed daily.
Not imitating vintage,
but becoming my own pair.

Japan’s Kanji of the Year is “Bear.”

In Japan, it reflects a year marked by repeated bear-related incidents.
Meanwhile, in Taiwan, the same character has been used symbolically to represent resilience and the will not to yield to external pressure.

What happens to Taiwan concerns Japan as well.

JELADO 301EXX - 1.5 years of fades 📘
Every crease and fade tells a story.
Whiskers, honeycombs, stacks — all formed by my wear pattern.
This isn’t just denim aging. It’s a journey.
And it’s far from over.

Added Converse sneakers for a fresh twist. These 50’s jeans are aging beautifully after a month of wear.

【2025’s Partner: TCB Jeans 50’s!】
Bought the TCB 50’s setup, inspired by the 50s XX model! Perfectly sized jacket & jeans made of Zimbabwe cotton that molds as you wear. Excited to see its unique fade by GW. Let’s enjoy denim evolution together!

Japan is getting colder all over the country 🥶.
I wear denim set-up everyday, but I need outerwear 😅
I think I will wear this varsity jacket as a basic this year.

SUGAR CANE SC41947
I wore them for 70 days and 1,044 hours. Since it was a sweaty season, I washed them three times.
This model has a relaxed fit around the thighs, so it might be harder for whiskers to form in the front. However, the honeycomb fades on the back seem to be coming out nicely.

It has been 5 months since I purchased these jeans in February. I've worn them 59 times, rotating them with other pairs, for a total of 924 hours of wear.
Since it's the last week of July, I did a second wash.
I was surprised that the color hadn't faded as much as I expected.

The DENIME 224 jeans, were worn 52 times over five months, totaling 808 hours. Recently, they underwent their second wash. Special care was taken during winter by wearing tights to protect the fabric, and as the seasons change, so will the care strategy, reflecting the evolving fade patterns.

I'm hooked on WAREHOUSE DSB jeans but also fascinated by JELADO's LAST RESORT DENIM 301EXX. Both meticulously recreate vintage jeans, focusing on authentic details and materials, resulting in high-quality denim that evolves beautifully with wear.

The 1947 model WAREHOUSE "DSB" 1001XX jeans use denim from an old-style power loom G3, mimicking the vintage fade and blending ruggedness with a sleek silhouette. I fell for their charm instantly, opting for a longer hem to suit boots and roll-ups. Eagerly anticipating the aging journey.

I currently own a small but well-loved collection of denim, but two pairs stand out as my absolute favorites.
