[Lena]

[softgrey]

hmmm...i don't get it...fake levis?
why not just buy the real ones...?
the leather belt pouch thing is pretty nice though...imo...

EWW...Like the fake Levi's people carried in Venezuela. You could spot their fakeness from a mile away.

Ok that's right!!!!I'm for Levi's---Lee---helmut lang-----but I saw it in japan last month...I was only asking an opinion,you see some people import several "similar" levi's in europe...

Studio d'Artisan makes some pretty great jeans actually. They are Japanese "supercopies" of classic Levi's, meaning they are better quality than the original. The next time I am in Japan I wouldn't mind picking up a pair of their natural indigo jeans.

...and the logo

too cute

They're excellent jeans, as I understand it. They're not supposed to be fake levis, but they're clearly inspired by Levis - there are a huge number of Jpapnes denim companies that do this. Modern Levis jeans are really poor, and these brands sort of take the levis heritage and play with it a bit (like the pigs pulling the trousers) and use very high quality denim and manufacturing.

I have to agree with you johnny they have much better quality than other brands now but is the design that reminds Levi's a lot...anyway the pig-logo is lovely also some accessories they do

Edwin japan do very similar styles too Levi.

So do Michiko Koshino...however their stuff is far better than what Levi ever produced.
