Brands/Men

Evan Kinori is a San Francisco-based designer and pattern-maker with a discerning eye for detail. His namesake brand makes thoughtful, well constructed garments that are all produced in Northern California.

Each piece comes as part of a hand numbered edition, which is stated together with the style and cloth on the garments hangtag. It is clear that Evan Kinori is all about the product. We admire his approach and feel that his distinguished taste really sets the brand apart. The production of each style is limited to a small quantity, adding on to its uniqueness. It is evident that much care and thought is put into each piece that is created and we are happy to be able to offer the brand to our customers.

Peacoat

Fully lined blouson jacket with a loose fit, dropped shoulder seams, elasticated waistband, button-through cuffs, pointed collar tips, corozo buttons, a two-way zipper, and large flap pockets with hidden button closures. Hand-numbered edition. Made from a medium-weight cotton and linen corduroy with a dry hand and irregular texture, woven in Wakayama and cut in Shizuoka by one of the last remaining corduroy cutters in Japan. Piece-dyed in Okayama with natural sumi ink blended with Oeko-Tex certified dye, resulting in a dry touch that softens over time with wear.

Brown

Zip Jacket Two

Looser fitting buttondown shirt with a single chest pocket, corozo buttons, French seams, squared cuffs, pointed collar, invisible placket, and a pronounced curved hem. Cut with a dropped shoulder and slightly longer body, based on the fit of the Big Shirt. Hand-numbered edition. Crafted from undyed organic wool sourced from Uruguay, woven into a subtle herringbone pattern that blends natural shades of brown and charcoal.

Big Shirt Two

Big Shirt

A loose and slightly tapered pant featuring slash front pockets, rear welt pockets with button through flap, ‘clean finish’ cotton bound seams throughout, corozo buttons, ‘hollywood’ split back waistband construction, bound button fly and single needle belt loops. The most generous fitting pant in the collection.

This medium/light weight dense organic cotton canvas was woven in Okayama, Japan. The weaver/designer was unique as he preferred not to use any starch or stiffening agents in the weaving process - so the resulting cloth has a very natural and irregular texture. After being woven, the cloth was dyed twice - once in indigo, and then again in sumi ink - which makes for a very rich and irregular dark charcoal blue color.

Two Pleat Pant

A wide, slightly cropped straight leg pant featuring an internal elastic waistband which allows for a relaxed fit in the seat and hip, on-seam front pockets, single ‘modified welt’ pocket on back right side, french seams, corozo buttons, clean finish button fly and single needle belt loops.

A very dry, crisp hemp cloth featuring a dobby weave pattern - a subtle grid gives this seemingly simple cloth added depth, texture and movement. It is both lightweight yet strong, as the hemp fibers add structure that will soften over time. Woven in Aichi Prefecture, Japan.

Shale Grey

Elastic Pant

A looser fitting buttondown with single chest pocket, corozo buttons, french seams, squared cuffs, pointed collar, more pronounced curved hem and ‘invisible’ placket. This shirt is based on the same fit of the Big Shirt - cut more relaxed in the chest with a dropped shoulder.

A soft, unstructured linen herringbone cloth. woven with a yarn dyed stripe, the finished cloth was then overdyed by hand to achieve an irregular deeper saturation of color, and to render the stripe more subtle. Woven in the Bishu region of Japan.

Brown

A slightly relaxed, subtly tapered pant featuring 1/2" pleats, quarter top front pockets, single ‘hand style’ welt pocket on back right side, french seams, wool washer backed YKK buttons, clean finish button fly and single needle belt loops.

A very unique corduroy with a great irregular character from the particular dyeing, washing and drying processes. The very dry hand is achieved both through the use of hemp and also the open air drying. The cloth was machine dyed in Kyoto using gallnuts with an iron mordant - these dyers specialize in very consistently colored predominantly natural dye processes - achieved by stabilizing the more unpredictable natural dyes with the use of a small percentage of conventional dye and by dyeing with machines as opposed to by hand.
