Japanese brand Big John produces a variety of collections, each of which has its own identity and a certain idea laid down by the manufacturer.
Almost all connoisseurs of denim products from Big John note their RARE series, which embodies much of what the brand has been able to achieve over the years.
The very first Rare jeans were released back in 1983. You could say that these were the very first jeans where the manufacturer tried to maximize the expression of Japanese artisanal quality that was combined with vintage American denim style.
Therefore, if you hold in your hands any product from the Rare series you should understand that behind the external brevity here lies a colossal work and experience of many years.
Let us introduce you to all the products that are now available in the Rare series from Big John. These are outwardly austere and classic products that feature carefully designed denim and have details that are unique to this Big John series.
We could say that the Rare series is quite different, both from the classic conservative Japanese repro style, which takes inspiration from vintage Levi’s jeans of the 40’s and 50’s, and from the more modern trends of Japanese denim, where the manufacturer focuses on extra heavy denim, extra pronounced fabric texture or unusual colors of weft threads. Outwardly it is an absolute classic, but it is a classic brought to perfection!
R008-000W R008 15.5oz Rare jeans Regular straight
These are jeans in the classic straight regular fit. If you are looking for the “perfect classic jeans”, perhaps now you see it. The R008 is a direct descendant of the very first Rare jeans from 1983.
R009000 15.5oz Rare Jeans Slim
A more modern narrow tapered style is used here. A razor-sharp style, whether with work boots or a pair of nice shoes and a jacket.
Denim jacket with a snug fit that will be your “faithful friend” for years to come.
Fabric
Rare Series Denim deserves special words. Kyoji Sakamoto, the creator of Sakamoto Denim, once said “To live indigo, be devoted to indigo”. Through much experimentation, Mr. Sakamoto was able to create that ultimate balanced “perfect indigo” that we see in the Big John Rare series. This denim has a medium universal density of 15.5OZ and a beautiful “pure indigo” color that can be admired endlessly. The raw materials used here are American cotton varieties.
By the way, you can observe the special Sakamoto Ransei seal on the underside. It means “great master” and is a tribute to craftsmanship and dedication.
The texture of this denim has a slight natural heterogeneity. The denim is woven at Shinya Mills on a 50’s machine with low tension.
It should be noted that the Rare series is positioned by Big John as particularly durable. With its characteristic color and texture, the denim is specially designed to be strong and durable.
Keep in mind that here you are dealing with classic Raw Non Wash. Jeans made of this denim will shrink by about 2 cm in the waist, 1-2 cm in the width of the pant leg and 5-7 cm in the length of the inner seam of the jeans.
On the wrong side we can see the bleached thread. The fabric itself has a nice texture to it. Yellow selvedge ID is used here.
Details
For all their outward brevity, Big John’s Rare Series jeans are some of the most unusually detailed jeans available. And their details are noticeably different from many classic Japanese denim brands.
The patch is made from a narrow strip of thin, soft leather. The leather is indigo colored and accentuates the overall aesthetic of this series well.
Notice how detailed Big John has laid out all the specifics and features of this product.
The back pockets have a classic shape. However, the hidden copper rivets are not used here. At the top corners of the pockets there are tack seams.
The lower part of the back pockets has a special reinforcement lining. This is very convenient and practical if you carry small metal objects in the pockets.
Many Japanese jeans lovers prefer jeans stitched with classic cotton threads. This allows for a vintage aesthetic, cotton threads can fade beautifully over time. However, cotton threads are not as durable as polycotton threads. The Rare series from Big John has solved this dilemma. Here, it uses a ginger colored cotton thread that can fade beautifully over time and a dark polycotton thread that gives strength to the entire construction of the jeans.
Big John has also moved away from the classic chain stitch in this series. A more robust closed stitch with a large number of small stitches is used. This is in keeping with the idea of the Rare series, which combines aesthetics with durability and practicality.
The rivets are flat style, which is typical of most Big John models. The Rare series uses a steel rivet with a copper core. It looks very original and aesthetically pleasing.
The button style features the recognizable Big John branding.
By the way, all buttons and rivets have special leather linings on the underside. This shows that the smallest details have been very carefully worked out.
Brief impressions and conclusions
Jeans that embody the “Quality First” philosophy with unwavering devotion are definitely Rare Jeans. These are the kind of carefully crafted jeans that ignited Japan’s vintage denim boom in the early 1980s and continue to be long-selling classics. As a source of Japanese culture that popularized the concept of “grow-your-own jeans,” they have influenced not only Japan, but the world.
日本品牌 Big John 推出了多个系列，每个系列都有自己独特的身份和理念。其中，几乎所有牛仔产品的爱好者都特别提到他们的RARE系列，这个系列凝聚了品牌多年来的成就。RARE系列的第一条牛仔裤早在1983年发布，可以说这是品牌首次尝试将日本手工艺的精湛品质与美式复古牛仔风格完美结合的作品。因此，当你手握RARE系列的任何一件产品时，你应该明白，这背后隐藏着的是多年积累的庞大工作与经验。
现在我们为大家介绍 Big John RARE 系列中的所有产品。这些产品外观简约经典，采用精心设计的牛仔布，且拥有该系列独有的细节。可以说，RARE 系列与传统的日本复古风格截然不同，后者常常从40年代和50年代的 Levi’s 牛仔裤汲取灵感。而RARE系列也与现代日本牛仔趋势不同，后者通常侧重于超重的牛仔布、强烈的织物质感或独特的纬线颜色。从外表来看，RARE 系列绝对是经典款式，但它是一款被打磨至完美的经典!
R008-000W R008 15.5oz Rare系列经典直筒牛仔裤
这些是经典直筒常规版型的牛仔裤。如果你正在寻找”完美的经典牛仔裤”，或许现在你已经找到了。R008 是 1983 年首款 Rare 牛仔裤的直接后裔.
R009000 15.5oz Rare系列修身牛仔裤
这款采用了更现代的窄脚锥形版型，无论是搭配工装靴，还是一双优雅的皮鞋加上一件外套，都展现出极致的利落风格。
R609 RARE 系列原色牛衣夹克
这款修身剪裁的牛仔夹克将成为您多年忠实的“好朋友”。特别值得一提的是Rare系列的面料。Sakamoto Denim的创始人坂本京二曾说过：“要活在靛蓝中，必须对靛蓝充满奉献”。通过多次实验，坂本先生最终创造出了Big John Rare系列中完美平衡的“纯正靛蓝”色调。这款牛仔布的密度为通用的15.5盎司，展现了美丽的“纯靛蓝”颜色，令人赏心悦目。该系列所使用的原材料为美国棉花。
.
顺便一提，您可以在夹克的内侧看到特别的“坂本蘭成”印章。这代表着“大师”，是对精湛工艺与奉献精神的致敬。 这种牛仔布的质地带有轻微的天然不均匀性。它是在Shinya工厂的50年代低张力织布机上编织而成。需要指出的是，Big John的Rare系列被定位为特别耐用。这种牛仔布具有独特的颜色和质感，专为强度和耐用性而设计。请记住，这里使用的是经典的生牛仔布（Raw Non Wash）。这种牛仔布制作的牛仔裤在洗涤后，腰围会缩水约2厘米，裤腿宽度缩小1-2厘米，内缝长度缩短5-7厘米。 在牛仔布的反面，可以看到漂白的纱线。面料本身有着不错的质感，并且采用了黄色的耳边设计 (Selvedge ID)。 细节 尽管Big John的Rare系列牛仔裤外表简约，它们却是最具特色的牛仔裤之一。这些细节与许多经典的日本牛仔品牌明显不同。牛仔裤上的皮标由一条窄窄的、柔软的薄皮革制成，皮革染成靛蓝色，与整个系列的美学风格完美契合。 注意Big John如何详细展示了这款产品的所有细节和特点. 后口袋采用经典形状。不过，这里没有使用隐藏的铜铆钉。在口袋的顶部角落处，有固定缝。. 后口袋的下部有特殊的加固衬里。如果你在口袋里放置小型金属物品，这种设计非常方便实用。
. 许多日本牛仔裤爱好者喜欢使用经典的棉线缝制牛仔裤，因为棉线可以随着时间的推移展现出美丽的复古效果。然而，棉线的耐用性不如聚酯棉线。Big John的Rare系列解决了这一难题。该系列采用了姜黄色的棉线，能够随着时间的推移美丽褪色，同时使用深色的聚酯棉线为牛仔裤的整体结构提供了强度。此外，Big John在这一系列中也摒弃了经典的链缝，改用了更加坚固的闭合缝合，缝线密集。这与Rare系列将美学与耐用性和实用性相结合的理念相符。 这些铆钉采用了平面风格，这是大多数Big John款式的典型特征。Rare系列使用了带有铜芯的钢铆钉，外观非常独特且美观。 这款钮扣风格展现了独特的Big John品牌标志.
此外，所有的按钮和铆钉下方都有特别的皮革衬垫。这显示了在最小细节上的精细打磨。.
印象和总 展现了“品质至上”理念并始终如一地奉献的牛仔裤，非Rare Jeans莫属。这些精心制作的牛仔裤点燃了1980年代初日本复古牛仔裤的热潮，并持续成为经典的长销款。作为推广“自家养成牛仔裤”概念的日本文化源头，它们不仅影响了日本，也对全球产生了深远的影响。

Here, it uses a ginger colored cotton thread that can fade beautifully over time and a dark polycotton thread that gives strength to the entire construction of the jeans.
Big John has also moved away from the classic chain stitch in this series. A more robust closed stitch with a large number of small stitches is used. This is in keeping with the idea of the Rare series, which combines aesthetics with durability and practicality.
The rivets are flat style, which is typical of most Big John models. The Rare series uses a steel rivet with a copper core. It looks very original and aesthetically pleasing.
The button style features the recognizable Big John branding.
By the way, all buttons and rivets have special leather linings on the underside. This shows that the smallest details have been very carefully worked out.
Brief impressions and conclusions
Jeans that embody the “Quality First” philosophy with unwavering devotion are definitely Rare Jeans. These are the kind of carefully crafted jeans that ignited Japan’s vintage denim boom in the early 1980s and continue to be long-selling classics. As a source of Japanese culture that popularized the concept of “grow-your-own jeans,” they have influenced not only Japan, but the world.
Японский бренд Big John выпускает разнообразные коллекции, каждая из которых имеет свою самобытность и определенную идею, заложенную производителем.
Практически все ценители джинсовых продуктов от Big John отмечают их серию RARE, которая воплощает в себе многое из того, что этот бренд смог достигнуть за долгие годы своего существования.
Самые первые джинсы из серии Rare были выпущены в далёком 1983 году. Можно сказать, что это были самые первые джинсы, где производитель постарался максимально выразить японское ремесленное качество, которое сочеталось с винтажным американским джинсовым стилем.
Поэтому если вы держите в руках любой продукт из серии Rare вам стоит понимать, что за внешней лаконичностью здесь кроется колоссальный труд и опыт долгих лет.
Давайте представим вам все продукты, которые сейчас доступны в серии Rare от Big John. Это внешне строгие и классические продукты, которые обладают тщательно разработанным денимом и имеют детали, присущие только этой серии Big John.
Мы могли бы сказать, что серия Rare весьма отличается, как от классической консервативно японской репро стилистики, где черпается вдохновение в винтажных джинсах Levi’s 40-х и 50-х так и от более современных направлений японского денима, где производитель делает упор на сверхтяжёлый деним, сверх выраженную фактуру ткани или необычные цвета уточных нитей. Внешне это абсолютная классика, но это классика доведённая до совершенства!
R008-000W R008 15.5oz Rare jeans Regular straight
Это джинсы в классическом прямом регулар фасоне. Если вы ищете “идеальные классические джинсы”, пожалуй сейчас вы видите именно их. Модель R008 является прямым “потомком” самых первых джинсов Rare 1983 года.
R009000 15.5oz Rare Jeans Slim
Здесь используется более современный узкий tapered фасон. Бритвенно отточенный стиль, как с рабочими башмаками так и с парой хороших туфель и пиджаком.
Джинсовая куртка с плотной посадкой по фигуре, которая станет для вас “верным другом” на долгие годы.
Деним
Деним серии Rare заслуживает особых слов. Когда-то создатель Sakamoto Denim, Kyoji Sakamoto сказал “Жить индиго, быть преданным индиго”. Благодаря многочисленным экспериментам господин Сакамото смог создать тот самый максимально сбалансированный “идеальный индиго” что мы видим в серии Big John Rare. Этот деним имеет среднюю универсальную плотность 15,5OZ и красивый цвет “чистого индиго”, которым можно любоваться бесконечно. В качестве исходного сырья здесь используются американские сорта хлопка.
Кстати, вы можете наблюдать специальную печать Sakamoto Ransei с изнаночной стороны. Это означает “великий мастер” и является данью уважения мастерству и преданности своему делу.
Фактура этого денима имеет небольшую естественную неоднородностью. Деним ткётся на предприятии Shinya Mills на станке 50-х годов с малым натяжением.
Особо отметим, что серия Rare позиционируется Big John как особо прочная. Деним имея характерный цвет и фактурность специально разработан так, чтобы быть прочным и долговечным.
Имейте в виду, что здесь вы имеете дело с классическим Raw Non Wash. Джинсы из такого денима дадут усадку примерно на 2 см в талии, 1-2 см по ширине штанины и на 5-7 см по длине внутреннего шва джинсов.
С изнаночной стороны мы видим отбеленную нить. Сама ткань имеет красивую фактурность. Здесь используется жёлтая selvedge ID.
Детали
При всей внешней лаконичности, джинсы Big John серии Rare являются одними из самых необычно детализированных джинсов. Причём их детали заметно отличаются от многих классических японских джинсовых брендов
Патч выполнен из узкой полоски тонкой мягкой кожи. Кожа окрашена индиго и хорошо подчёркивает общую эстетику этой серии.
Обратите внимание насколько подробно Big John изложил всю специфику и особенности этого продукта.
Задние карманы имеют классическую форму. Однако здесь не используются скрытые медные заклёпки. В верхних углах карманов расположены закрепочные швы.
Нижняя часть задних карманов имеет специальную усиливающую подкладку. Это очень удобно и практично, если вы носите мелкие металлические предметы в карманах.
Многие любители японских джинсов предпочитают джинсы, прошитые классическими хлопковыми нитями. Это позволяет получить винтажную эстетику, хлопковые нити могут красиво выцветать со временем. Однако хлопковые нити не столь прочны, как поликоттоновые нити. В серии Rare от Big John эта дилемма была решена. Здесь используется хлопковая нить рыжего цвета, которая может со временем красиво выцветать и тёмная поликоттоновая нить, которая придаёт прочность всей конструкции джинсов.
Кроме того Big John в этой серии отказались от использования классического цепного стежка. Здесь используется более прочный закрытый шов с большим количеством мелких стежков. Это полностью соответствует идее серии Rare, где эстетика сочетается с прочностью и практичностью.
Заклёпки выполнены в плоском стиле, что типично для большинства моделей Big John. В серии Rare используется стальная заклёпка с медной сердцевиной. Выглядит весьма оригинально и эстетично.
Стиль пуговиц имеет узнаваемый брендинг Big John.
Кстати, с изнаночной стороны все пуговицы и заклёпки имеют специальные кожаные подкладки. Это говорит об очень тщательной проработке мельчайших деталей.
Краткие впечатления и выводы
Джинсы, воплощающие философию “Качество прежде всего” с непоколебимой преданностью — это, безусловно, “Rare Jeans”. Именно такие тщательно сделанные джинсы зажгли японский бум винтажного денима в начале 1980-х и продолжают оставаться долго продаваемой классикой. Как источник японской культуры, популяризировавшей концепцию “вырасти-собственные джинсы”, они оказали влияние не только на Японию, но и на весь мир.

Kami ingin memperkenalkan anda kepada semua produk yang kini tersedia dalam siri Rare dari Big John. Ini adalah produk yang kelihatan ketat dan klasik yang menampilkan denim yang direka dengan teliti dan mempunyai butiran yang unik untuk siri Big John ini.
Kami boleh katakan bahawa siri Rare adalah agak berbeza, baik dari gaya repro Jepun konservatif klasik, yang mengambil inspirasi dari jeans Levi’s vintaj tahun 40-an dan 50-an, dan dari trend denim Jepun yang lebih moden, di mana pengeluar memberi tumpuan kepada denim yang sangat berat, tekstur kain yang sangat ketara atau warna benang weft yang tidak biasa. Dari segi luaran, ia adalah klasik mutlak, tetapi ia adalah klasik yang dibawa ke tahap kesempurnaan!

Kain
Rare Series Denim layak mendapat kata-kata istimewa. Kyoji Sakamoto, pencipta Sakamoto Denim, pernah berkata “Untuk hidup indigo, berikan sepenuh hati kepada indigo”. Melalui banyak percubaan, Encik Sakamoto dapat mencipta “indigo sempurna” yang seimbang yang kita lihat dalam siri Big John Rare. Denim ini mempunyai ketumpatan universal sederhana sebanyak 15.5OZ dan warna “indigo tulen” yang cantik yang dapat dikagumi tanpa henti. Bahan mentah yang digunakan di sini adalah varieti kapas Amerika.
Ngomong-ngomong, anda boleh melihat meterai Sakamoto Ransei yang istimewa di bahagian bawah. Ia bermaksud “maestro hebat” dan merupakan penghormatan kepada kemahiran dan dedikasi.
Tekstur denim ini mempunyai heterogeniti semulajadi yang sedikit. Denim ini ditenun di Shinya Mills menggunakan mesin tahun 50-an dengan ketegangan rendah. Perlu diingat bahawa siri Rare diposisikan oleh Big John sebagai sangat tahan lama. Dengan warna dan tekstur yang khas, denim ini direka khas untuk menjadi kuat dan tahan lama. Ingat bahawa di sini anda berurusan dengan Raw Non Wash klasik. Seluar jeans yang dibuat daripada denim ini akan mengecut sekitar 2 cm di pinggang, 1-2 cm di lebar kaki seluar dan 5-7 cm di panjang jahitan dalam seluar jeans.
Di sebelah yang salah, kita dapat melihat benang yang pudar. Kain itu sendiri mempunyai tekstur yang baik. ID tepi kuning digunakan di sini.
Butiran
Walaupun kelihatan ringkas, seluar jeans Big John’s Rare Series adalah antara seluar jeans yang paling terperinci dan luar biasa yang ada. Dan butir-butirnya jelas berbeza daripada banyak jenama denim Jepun klasik.

Banyak peminat jeans Jepun lebih suka jeans yang dijahit dengan benang kapas klasik. Ini membolehkan estetika vintaj, benang kapas boleh pudar dengan indah dari semasa ke semasa. Namun, benang kapas tidak sekuat benang poli-kapas. Siri Rare dari Big John telah menyelesaikan dilema ini. Di sini, ia menggunakan benang kapas berwarna halia yang boleh pudar dengan indah dari semasa ke semasa dan benang poli-kapas gelap yang memberikan kekuatan kepada keseluruhan struktur jeans.
Big John juga telah menjauhkan diri dari jahitan rantai klasik dalam siri ini. Jahitan tertutup yang lebih kukuh dengan sejumlah besar jahitan kecil digunakan. Ini selaras dengan idea siri Rare, yang menggabungkan estetika dengan ketahanan dan praktikaliti.
Rivet adalah gaya rata, yang merupakan ciri kebanyakan model Big John. Siri Rare menggunakan rivet keluli dengan inti tembaga. Ia kelihatan sangat asli dan menarik secara estetik.
Ngomong-ngomong, semua butang dan paku mempunyai lapisan kulit khas di bahagian bawah. Ini menunjukkan bahawa butiran terkecil telah dikerjakan dengan sangat teliti.
Impresi dan kesimpulan ringkas
Jeans yang mewakili falsafah “Kualiti Pertama” dengan pengabdian yang tidak berbelah bahagi adalah pasti Rare Jeans.

Sebagai sumber budaya Jepun yang mempopularkan konsep “tanam jeans anda sendiri,” mereka telah mempengaruhi bukan sahaja Jepun, tetapi juga dunia.
일본 브랜드 Big John은 다양한 컬렉션을 생산하며, 각 컬렉션에는 고유 한 정체성과 제조업체가 정한 특정 아이디어가 있습니다.
거의 모든 Big John의 데님 제품 감정가들은 브랜드가 수년에 걸쳐 달성 할 수 있었던 많은 것을 구현하는 RARE 시리즈에 주목합니다.
최초의 레어 청바지는 1983년에 출시되었습니다. 이 청바지는 제조업체가 빈티지 아메리칸 데님 스타일과 결합 된 일본 장인의 품질 표현을 극대화하려고 시도한 최초의 청바지라고 할 수 있습니다.
따라서 Rare 시리즈의 제품을 손에 쥐고 있다면 외형적인 간결함 뒤에는 수년간의 엄청난 작업과 경험이 있다는 것을 이해해야합니다.
현재 빅존의 레어 시리즈에서 만나볼 수 있는 모든 제품을 소개합니다. 이 제품들은 겉으로 보기에는 단정하고 클래식한 제품이지만, 세심하게 디자인된 데님 소재와 빅 존 시리즈만의 디테일이 돋보이는 제품입니다.
레어 시리즈는 40~50년대 빈티지 리바이스 청바지에서 영감을 받은 클래식한 보수적인 일본 복각 스타일과 제조업체가 매우 무거운 데님, 매우 뚜렷한 원단 질감 또는 특이한 색상의 위사 실에 중점을 둔 일본 데님의 현대적인 트렌드와는 상당히 다르다고 말할 수 있습니다. 겉으로는 절대적인 클래식이지만 완벽에 가까운 클래식입니다!
R008-000W R008 15.5oz Rare jeans Regular straight
클래식한 스트레이트 레귤러 핏의 청바지입니다. “완벽한 클래식 청바지”를 찾고 계신다면 이제 보셨을 것입니다. R008은 1983년 최초의 레어 청바지의 직계 후손입니다.

여기에서는 보다 현대적인 좁은 테이퍼드 스타일이 사용됩니다. 작업 부츠나 멋진 구두 한 켤레와 재킷을 매치하면 날렵한 스타일이 완성됩니다.
오랫동안 ‘충성스러운 친구’가 되어줄 편안한 핏의 데님 재킷입니다.
원단
레어 시리즈 데님에는 특별한 단어가 필요합니다. 사카모토 데님의 창시자인 사카모토 교지는 “인디고로 살려면 인디고에 헌신하라”고 말한 적이 있습니다. 수많은 실험을 통해 사카모토는 빅 존 레어 시리즈에서 볼 수 있는 궁극의 균형 잡힌 ‘완벽한 인디고’를 만들어낼 수 있었습니다. 이 데님은 15.5온스의 중간 밀도와 끝없이 감탄할 수 있는 아름다운 “순수한 인디고” 색상을 가지고 있습니다. 여기에 사용된 원재료는 미국산 코튼 품종입니다.
참고로 밑면에는 사카모토 란세이의 특별한 인장을 볼 수 있습니다. “위대한 장인”이라는 뜻으로 장인 정신과 헌신에 대한 찬사입니다.
이 데님의 질감은 약간의 자연스러운 이질감이 있습니다. 데님은 신야 밀스에서 50년대 기계로 낮은 텐션으로 직조됩니다.
Rare 시리즈는 빅존에서 특히 내구성이 뛰어난 제품으로 포지셔닝하고 있습니다. 독특한 색상과 질감의 데님은 강하고 내구성이 뛰어나도록 특별히 설계되었습니다.
여기서는 클래식한 로우 논 워시를 다루고 있다는 점을 명심하세요. 이 데님으로 만든 청바지는 허리가 약 2cm, 바지 다리 너비가 1~2cm, 청바지 안쪽 솔기 길이가 5~7cm 정도 줄어듭니다.
반대쪽에서 표백된 실을 볼 수 있습니다. 원단 자체에 좋은 질감이 있습니다. 노란색 셀비지 ID가 여기에 사용됩니다.
디테일
빅존의 레어 시리즈 청바지는 겉으로 보기에는 간결하지만 가장 디테일이 뛰어난 청바지 중 하나입니다. 그리고 그 디테일은 다른 클래식한 일본 데님 브랜드와 눈에 띄게 다릅니다.
패치는 얇고 부드러운 가죽의 좁은 스트립으로 만들어졌습니다. 가죽은 인디고 컬러로 이 시리즈의 전체적인 미학을 잘 강조합니다.
빅존이 이 제품의 모든 세부 사항과 기능을 얼마나 상세하게 설명했는지 주목하세요.
뒷주머니는 클래식한 모양입니다. 그러나 여기에는 숨겨진 구리 리벳이 사용되지 않았습니다. 포켓의 상단 모서리에는 압정 솔기가 있습니다.
뒷주머니 하단에는 특수 보강 안감이 있습니다. 주머니에 작은 금속 물체를 넣을 때 매우 편리하고 실용적입니다.
많은 일본 청바지 애호가들은 클래식한 면사로 바느질한 청바지를 선호합니다. 면사는 시간이 지남에 따라 아름답게 색이 바랠 수 있어 빈티지한 분위기를 연출할 수 있습니다. 하지만 면사는 폴리코튼 실만큼 내구성이 뛰어나지 않습니다. 빅존의 레어 시리즈는 이러한 딜레마를 해결했습니다. 시간이 지남에 따라 아름답게 변색되는 진저 컬러 면사와 청바지의 전체 구조에 강도를 부여하는 진한 폴리코튼 실을 사용했습니다.
빅 존은 이번 시리즈에서도 클래식한 체인 스티치에서 벗어났습니다. 작은 스티치가 많은 보다 견고한 폐쇄형 스티치가 사용되었습니다. 이는 미적 감각과 내구성 및 실용성을 결합한 레어 시리즈의 아이디어에 부합하는 것입니다.
리벳은 대부분의 빅존 모델에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 플랫 스타일입니다. 레어 시리즈는 구리 코어가 있는 강철 리벳을 사용합니다. 매우 독창적이고 미적으로도 보기 좋습니다.
버튼 스타일은 눈에 띄는 브랜드가 특징입니다.
그건 그렇고, 모든 버튼과 리벳에는 밑면에 특수 가죽 라이닝이 있습니다. 이것은 가장 작은 세부 사항이 매우 신중하게 처리되었음을 보여줍니다.
간략한 소감 및 결론
“품질 제일주의” 철학을 변함없는 헌신으로 구현한 청바지는 단연 레어 진입니다. 1980년대 초 일본에 빈티지 데님 붐을 일으켰고 지금도 스테디셀러로 사랑받고 있는 레어 진은 세심하게 제작된 청바지입니다. ‘나만의 청바지’라는 개념을 대중화한 일본 문화의 원천으로서 일본뿐만 아니라 전 세계에 영향을 미쳤습니다.

Kain
Denim Seri Langka layak mendapatkan kata-kata khusus. Kyoji Sakamoto, pencipta Sakamoto Denim, pernah berkata “Untuk hidup sebagai indigo, berbaktilah pada indigo”. Melalui banyak eksperimen, Sakamoto mampu menciptakan “indigo sempurna” yang seimbang dan sempurna yang kita lihat dalam seri Big John Rare. Denim ini memiliki kepadatan universal sedang 15,5OZ dan warna “nila murni” yang indah yang dapat dikagumi tanpa henti. Bahan baku yang digunakan di sini adalah varietas katun Amerika.
Ngomong-ngomong, Anda bisa mengamati segel Sakamoto Ransei yang istimewa di bagian bawah. Ini berarti “tuan besar” dan merupakan penghargaan untuk keahlian dan dedikasi.
Tekstur denim ini memiliki sedikit heterogenitas alami. Denim ini ditenun di Shinya Mills dengan mesin 50-an dengan tegangan rendah.
Perlu dicatat bahwa seri Rare diposisikan oleh Big John sebagai denim yang tahan lama. Dengan warna dan teksturnya yang khas, denim ini didesain secara khusus agar kuat dan tahan lama.
Perlu diingat bahwa di sini Anda berurusan dengan Raw Non Wash klasik. Jeans yang terbuat dari denim ini akan menyusut sekitar 2 cm pada bagian pinggang, 1-2 cm pada bagian lebar kaki celana dan 5-7 cm pada bagian panjang jahitan bagian dalam jeans.

Detail
Untuk semua kesederhanaannya, jeans Big John’s Rare Series adalah salah satu jeans dengan detail paling luar biasa yang tersedia. Dan detailnya sangat berbeda dengan banyak merek denim klasik Jepang lainnya.
Tambalannya terbuat dari potongan kulit tipis dan lembut yang sempit. Kulitnya berwarna nila dan menonjolkan estetika keseluruhan seri ini dengan baik.

Kantong belakang memiliki bentuk yang klasik. Namun demikian, paku keling tembaga yang tersembunyi tidak digunakan di sini. Di sudut atas saku terdapat jahitan paku payung.
Bagian bawah saku belakang memiliki lapisan penguat khusus. Hal ini sangat nyaman dan praktis jika Anda membawa benda logam kecil di dalam saku.
Banyak pecinta jeans Jepang yang lebih memilih jeans yang dijahit dengan benang katun klasik. Hal ini memungkinkan estetika vintage, benang katun dapat memudar dengan indah dari waktu ke waktu. Namun, benang katun tidak tahan lama seperti benang polycotton. Seri Rare dari Big John telah memecahkan dilema ini. Di sini, mereka menggunakan benang katun berwarna jahe yang dapat memudar dengan indah dari waktu ke waktu dan benang polycotton gelap yang memberikan kekuatan pada seluruh konstruksi jeans.
Big John juga telah beralih dari tusuk rantai klasik dalam seri ini. Jahitan tertutup yang lebih kuat dengan sejumlah besar jahitan kecil digunakan. Hal ini sesuai dengan gagasan seri Rare, yang memadukan estetika dengan daya tahan dan kepraktisan.
Paku kelingnya berbentuk pipih, yang merupakan ciri khas sebagian besar model Big John. Seri Rare menggunakan paku keling baja dengan inti tembaga. Terlihat sangat orisinil dan estetis.
Gaya tombol menampilkan merek Big John yang mudah dikenali.
Omong-omong, semua kancing dan paku keling memiliki lapisan kulit khusus pada bagian bawahnya. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa detail terkecil sudah dikerjakan dengan sangat cermat.
Kesan dan kesimpulan singkat
