A rare piece of early Japanese reproduction denim history from the founding years of Hidehiko Yamane’s Osaka workshop. Produced prior to the mid-1990s trademark dispute that prompted the addition of the "U" to EVISU, this pre-lawsuit pair features the original red-stamped EVIS No. 2 leather waist patch.
Modeled after 1930s workwear silhouettes, the jeans are constructed from sanforized Japanese selvedge denim woven on vintage narrow shuttle looms. Both back pockets showcase Yamane’s signature hand-brushed red seagulls, which have naturally oxidized over decades into a deep burgundy patina.
