I will keep you posted on the progress. Tanuki NS1 will be available at Blue Owl Workshop. I know it will get even better and more interesting as time passes. I am very excited to start wearing and breaking them in. If I had to compare it to any other denim, I would say it is almost like Oni’s Secret Denim fabric was crossed with Studio D’ Artisan’s 107 fabric, then dyed with natural indigo, although that comparison would just be a starting point for describing the denim. Just the right amount of details to make it interesting but not get in the way of this beautiful denim. A very well balanced combination of slub, nep and hair. The Denim Hounds First Impressions: Wow! Even with all that has been said about how great this denim is, I was still impressed when I first held it in my hands. This combination makes the perfect denim clothes.” ~ Tanuki We admit that we do not have expertise in European/western cuts and styles, so we are, for first time, reaching out to partner with European experts for cuts, fits and design. What they make with Kibata follows a formula developed through time to avoid the problems that other makers have. The main denim maker of Tanuki and other people in team are expert at making Kibata fabrics and also constructing clothes with it. Something that might work for a size 31, but it failed for other sizes. So denim results with strange fit issues like pockets do not work or rise that is too short, or lack of flexibility in areas where a person moves. This does not work because shrinkage does not work evenly with different sizes in Kibata. Other Japanese brands have taken cuts from famous European brands, broken it apart and tried to copy the cuts using Kibata. People treat like normal fabric but Kibata does not act like normal fabrics. “Working with Kibata (Japan raw denim) is very difficult. I was let in on some of their secrets and this is what I can share with you. I was lucky enough to talk with a member of this secret group and attempted peel back some of the mystery of Tanuki. What matters is that we are here to maintain an art(form)…” ~ Tanuki What matters is that we are taking the past and looking forward. What matters is that we have brought back traditions… What matters is that we brought back fabrics no one has seen in over three decades. Their secret fabrics are upgraded and refined versions of original, highly sought after japanese denim that has not been available for three decades. Now they have formed a small group to combine all of their expertise to make Japanese denim like the world has never seen before. This small group of denim industry veterans keep their identity secret.
They have been the experts behind some of the top Japanese denim brands, slowly perfecting the art of Kibata (Japan raw denim).
They were there when Japan first started making denim. With over 30 years of experience in every aspect of the denim making process. It is my honor to be the first to review Tanuki. Meet Tanuki, a secret coalition of denim masters. Every once in a while you find yourself in the right place, at the right time, and you find something special.
