The Unbranded Brand
Posted by SEAN WHYTE
No branding. No washes. No Embroidery. No Ad Campaigns. No Celebrities.The Unbranded Brand is a crazy concept in the world of not just premium denim, but in fashion and apparel in general.

Although on the lighter side of medium weight, the mask was still better suited to early spring conditions; so with the Summer fast approaching, and the requests for denim masks growing, we were left with only one option... Lightweight denim masks for the summer. Thanks to the homies, we were able to acquire a fair amount of Levis' "damaged" samples for reworking... two box loads... and one of those boxes was entirely women's denim jeans; that meant lightweight denim with stretch - exactly what the denim doctor ordered....
