Kakishibu aging
Eyeing the Yoko Sakamoto kakishibu bag, but a lot of the appeal over just regular canvas is how it will age. Does anyone have long term experience with this stuff? Does it break in nice? Get kinda orangey? What’s the deal

@Mosh do you have the kakishibu YS jacket
I doooo, here it is in all of its glory

It has been breaking in quite nicely, it was stiff as a rock when I bought it
The guy in the store i got it from at grays had a full set and his stuff was fully faded
It was a LOT lighter than mine currently is, and ive owned mine for only a few weeks
Very much depends on what dye result you get too, there was a kakishibu jacket that was alot darker than mine, almost closer to a black
Yeah the bag I’m looking it is pretty black
But I’ve seen some that fade to crazy orange
Which I’m not interested in
The one i saw on the owner of the store faded to a beige
Didnt really see any orange at all? But it really could depend, im pretty new to denim myself
The owners did tell me it would only get lighter, not change tints
Fuck it I sent it
