The love affair between Japan and Levi’s is rooted in ’50s-era American rock’n’roll films. The jeans worn by the rebel characters were Levi’s, but the jeans weren’t available in Japan and therefore became treasured relics of the culture. The ensuing collaboration, between style icon Motofumi “Poggy” Kogi and Levi’s, is a direct reference to one of Poggy’s favorite jackets in his vintage collection.

“200 Women: Who Will Change The Way You See The World” profiles its subjects by asking them the same five questions: “What really matters to you? What brings you happiness? What do you regard as the lowest depth of misery? What would you change if you could? Which single word do you most identify with?” Their answers are indicative of their experiences, but their responses will inspire, empower, and in some instances infuriate—thanks to the structures they (and all women) have to navigate.

Each season, an artisan-produced candle has been released in the Roman and Williams GUILD collection—which can now be accessed via subscription service. Designed by Stephen Alesch and Robin Standefer, the candles are hand-poured in NYC and use only the finest materials.

At first glance, the sturdy pants are Dickies, but thanks to a slightly slimmer, detail-oriented finish, they’re equally representative of SF-based Union Made’s vibe. The cut-off hems and embroidery add a little extra character to these coral-hued chinos.
