This fine gentleman is a regular customer with Brund in Copenhagen. He lives a bit north of our city, but he travels to Østerbro just to shop in Brund – and from what he’s wearing it seams Brund is one of the few places he shops. Last Saturday he came to buy a new pair of his favourite ED47 Rainbow selvage jeans, and he ended up taking home a pair of ED55′s as well. It’ll probably be a long time before he needs new jeans again.
Nashville is Edwin’s take on a classic 501-like 5 pocket jean. It has been on the market for about 20 years. Nashville is a traditional straight fit with a touch of tapering and a relatively high rise. It was designed to be worn high on the hips. The European division of Edwin inherited the style from the Japanese collection along with the Waynesville and the Greensville, both now out of general circulation. The fabric of the jeans shown in this article is a 14 oz. 100% cotton Japanese ring-ring spun redline selvage denim with a red blue cast. The fabric is also available in most other Edwin fits and it’s exclusively made for Edwin by Kurabo. The Nashville features a copper donut button fly, copper rivets, selvage coin pocket detailing, half lining on back pockets, and different colour and sized threads for a real vintage look.
This pair of Edwin ED47′s belong to Jakob Steffensen. He bought the jeans in November 2010 in Brund and he has worn them almost every day since then. They were washed for the first time in October 2011. The other day while I was at work, Jakob walked into Brund to buy himself a new pair. He asked me if I could take some pictures of his jeans so they could enter the Meadow competition. I agreed to bend the rules a little bit.
This pair of Edwin ED-47 have been worn for a year by Andreas Thell from Lund, Sweden, and have only been rinsed once until recently. However, Andreas decided that he wanted to see what the jeans would look like after a wash in the machine and result is what you see on the pictures.
Believe it or not, these Edwin SEN jeans are not pre-washed, but the owner has worn the abrasions in himself. It’s almost too good to be true!
