EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN

to all my japanese blogger friends! 
hope you are well and in health!!!
every morning since 1 year it is the same:
i check my inspiring sources around the www.
there are a lot of japanese blog-sites i look
at and believe me it is so frightening to realize
that today there are no new posts to check.
JAPAN is in a state of emergency! yesterday
i mailed with JUNICHI from fortalitia54, and he
is okay. i hope so much to all of you that you
are okay. the world is with you – i am sure.

THE WEST IS DEAD | S/S2011 COLLECTION

The West is Dead…
“… is a men’s premium denim line launching this spring 2011. with inspiration drawn from vintage
clothiers and craftsmen alike,  each piece in our line was designed and built with emphasis on
functional construction,  subtle styling,  and an obsession with using only the finest raw materials.“

“… is the collaboration of two friends who met while working in northern montana. will was living in an
abandoned school bus and Kaelen in a modified horse stall when the two of us realized our shared
appreciation for denim and a concern for the dying tradition of american craftsmanship.“
