OLI BREMERICH is what BONIFATIUS was for the catholics: a missionary. something like a missionary for all those guys in the sticks around ILLINGEN, SAARLAND, germany, who do not know what good denim and boots mean. ILLINGEN? where the f*** is ILLINGEN? okay, found it on the map: it is a small village 20 km in the north of SAARBRUECKEN just a spy away from the french border in the west of germany. it is really small with around 16.800 people who live there. and one of them is OLI. he runs the shop i do not know, but i think in third generation. the store was founded in 1934! BREMERICH JEANS sells japanese denim, american workwear, heavy boots and all the other stuff we like. in ILLINGEN?, you may ask – yes indeed, and it works! so it will get exciting visiting his 8TH “MAENNERABEND” tonight. a lot of clients and friends were invited and the guys from EAT DUST, PASSIONFRANCE®, RED WING SHOES, THE ONE GOODS and ME. my copywriter PETER will join the event too. i think it will be a relaxed evening with good talks, drinks and typical “MAENNERABEND” food. more to post the next days. the EAT DUST STUFF for today came on time with a special personal deliviery some days ago; check the video below. vid | BREMERICH JEANS || pics | LTG

VINTAGE ATELIER LA DURANCE RAW DENIM HAVERSACK
bought this years ago @ volls.de when ATLIER LA DURANCE was a really brand new label producing some small charges of denim – the quality and the making of the jeans was great. i think it was about 2005 or 2006. this haversack is a very nice piece but it was absolutely senseless for me. i preferred bags when going on travel, to get the things best handled. so it is like new, made of 14OZ weight japanese denim and saddle leather with a lot of nice details and heavy brass hard wear. it’s on ebay now. no life time gear for me … pics | LTG
