Premium Japanese Denim For Sale On EBay

If you are looking for the highest quality men's selvage denim jeans then you are going to have to take a trip to Tokyo. Unlike the mass-manufactured American and European jeans Japanese denim brands produce their jeans the old fashioned way using antique looms and sewing machines. Getting your hands on a pair of these jeans is quite a challenge though as they are rarely stocked in shops outside of Japan and the the online stores in Japan that sell them are unwilling to send them abroad. The only sure way to get a pair is to go there yourself or to get someone who lives there to send you a pair. Until now that is. I have managed to import a small number of jeans from brands such as Sugarcane, Eternal, Denime, 45rpm and Studio D'Artisan and have put them up for sale on eBay. Stocks are currently extremely limited, so if you want to get yourself a pair be sure to put your bid in quick.

Jessica Simpson's Favourite Jeans

Jessica Simpson may have come across as a spoilt, dimwit on her reality TV show but one thing is for sure, she is a hot looking spoilt dimwit. Here she is looking every inch the blond californian hippie rock chick in her favourite pair of True Religion 'Joey' Indigo Destroyed jeans. If I was the owner of True Religion Jeans I would sign her up immediately to be face (or should that be ass) of the brand.

JOE’S “Getz” Cigarette Jean

JOE'S Jeans have added two new styles to their range - The Cigarette (straight and narrow fit) as seen on teen party animal Lindsay Lohan and The Chelsea (ultra slim fit) shown below being worn by Nicole Richie. This brand was previously best know for its rocking bootcut jeans but these two new styles show show that they can do uber chic skinny fit jeans just as well.

Kristin Davis - The New Face of KIKIT Jeans

KIKIT, is a denim brand that I had not heard of before this week. That changed however when they announced they were about to launch a national advertising campaign featuring Kristin Davis who played Charlotte York in the series Sex and the City. Other than the photo above I haven't seen any of their collection, however I would guess from their choice of celebrity rep that this brand is targetted at 25+ women who want a pair of classy jeans which don't try to look too "young" or fashionable - like the actress herself.
