The jeans are being painted by “Mr Kobayashi Evisu No1 Paint Writer!” in the Evisu store in Osaka, Japan. Mr Kobayashi teaches the other shop staff to paint and is considered Yamane’s most trusted painter and Evisu maniac. The jeans that are being painted are Deluxe prototypes for SS08 and were painted as a special souvenir. The purple colour paint is “Osaka Purple” which they only paint in Osaka shops (Tokyo has navy blue, and other stores have unique colors), and the characters on the right pocket say Osaka. The video is better than watching paint dry!

Gordon from Blue in Green made a video of the hand painting of the DD+1 Jeans. The Evisu seagull pocket logo is on the painted on the right, and on the left there is the DD+1 patch and “13″ painted in Japanese.
Thanks Gordon!

The Dirty Dozen + 1 jeans is a project conceived by Cheep and the members of the online denim community Supertalk in conjunction with New York’s best denim store Blue in Green. Thirteen people over thirteen months will wear a special single pair of customized Evisu jeans hand painted by the Japanese artist Pesu at Blue In Green New York. The jeans start with Chicken who also designed the patch, and will then slowly travel around the world before ending back in NYC after thirteen months.
