It’s been a while since Tab Device (the boutique that carries Japan-exclusive Levi’s Denim) updated their website with new denim from Levi’s Fenom line. The Fenom line if you don’t know already can only be bought at the Tab Device store and is curated by the folks from Fragment Design (Hiroshi Fujiwara & Kazuki Kuraishi). This New Black Disco Decoration Denim from Levi’s features a beautiful pattern made with crystals on the back side. And just like almost every other pair of denim from the Fenom line, it has the Fragment logo on the back pocket. Available now at Tab Device for 45,150 Yen.
Levi’s back pocket has raised a lot of controversy in the past, as Levi’s hit to the courts in efforts to thwart the further use of their iconic and trademarked arcrute design. In the Backpocket Gallery, a group of artists were chosen to design their very own back pocket. Each artist embarked on capturing the theme for which Levi’s has stood for in its long and storied history. The whole range of artist designs can be seen over at Levi’s Backpocket Gallery.

A mainstay and still culturally relevant many years since its inception, Levi’s has long held the esteemed credit of being the face of denim. Their iconic range of models are captured in their Levi’s Vintage Clothing collection which revive some of Levi’s most popular models and cuts over the years. Some of their recent releases include the quintessential straight leg cut the 501 in models differing from year to year and a slimmer 505 model. Also included are t-shirt and denim packs which include a white Levi’s t-shirt alongside select denim. Available now at Hanon.
Kennyswork is founded by graphic designer and illustrator from Hong Kong, Kenny Wong. Kenny along with Winson and William has also founded Brothersfree which had collaborated with the likes of Nikon, Pringles and Lipton. Here’s the new collaboration between Levi’s, Bearbrick and Kennyswork. Together, they have created a pair of limited edition 523 which is themed after the Copperhead diver from Brothersfree. The denim features a crazy wash which looks like ripples in water. There’s also a ton of details including a black satin logo, copper rivets and more. This pair of 523 denim will be limited to 200 pieces and will cost $8,900 NT. You won’t find these in the states as they’re probably limited to Taiwan only.
There will also be a Bearbrick with this collaboration but no news on that so far.

Levi’s and Porter are set to release a new series of bags and accessories. The collection features classic Porter styles such as the Boston bag, Tote Bag and Day Pack. Each bag is constructed of denim to keep in theme with the Levi’s collaboration. The products will release on January 8th at Levi’s Store. Previous products between the two brands included a pack which included wallets, bags and a ring seen here.
The Levi’s Fenom line is one of those brands that you’ve probably heard of if you’re a HYPEBEAST reader. If you haven’t, the Fenom line is a Japanese exclusive line curated by no other than global trend setter Hiroshi Fujiwara. 90% of the denim by Fenom features the famous Fragment Design logo printed on the back pocket. However, this not-yet-released pair of denim samples won’t have that logo. EDC shows us on his blog that this pair of denim will have dark green stitches as well as pink selvedge lining. We’re not sure when they will be releasing but if they are, it will be only at Japan’s Tab Device.
