Core model 710 has a lot of its sizing; the waist sizes vary from 26 to 40 inches, and for each waist size there are from 5 to 8 different lengths ready. In total, 87 sizes are available. The idea of carrying 86 different kinds of measurements comes from Hayashi’ s prudent intention for the customers to make his creation fit each one’ s body without shortening the length and changing the shape.


Simply because Hayashi does not compromise and is confident to maintain the best quality and design over decades. Behind his strong confidence, we cannot ignore the backbone of the world’s best technology/quality of jeans production in Japan.

The fabric for RESOLUTE is woven in Shinya Co., Ltd. in Ibara-shi, Okayama. An old power loom still operates regularly, and the denim fabric woven there has much ordering from global maison brand. Shinya Co., Ltd. is a partner of Hayashi from the DENIME days. There is an old power loom for exclusive use of RESOLUTE, and expert craftsman maintains it elaborately.


It is a sewing factory in Niimi-shi, Okayama, Niimi sewing center to finish sewing to an ideal silhouette with this fabric.

YOSHIYUKI HAYASHI


He was born in 1956. It is an opportunity that he longed for Levi’ s for youth and begins to work in the jeans industry after graduation from university.
He learns the making of jeans by self-education, and in 1988 when DENIME established, he is invited as a designer by DENIME. He had the deep affection and preference for jeans, so in a record-breaking replica jeans trend in Japan, he was to be a big figure in that trend. After he left DENIME, he launched RESOLUTE in order to pursue his ideal style of jeans again in 2010.

The brand line up consists of 5 models.

711



A slightly wide straight type.
Based on work pants of the 1950’ s in America, the outline is refined with a lower rise and without a too- loose fit around the waist on RESOLUTE711, with an intention not to reproduce the XX model too precisely as typical replica brands do. However, all the important attributes are reproduced cautiously into details such as leather patch, hidden rivet, offset center back loop, and so on.

In the United States during World War Ⅱ, jeans that were forced to simplify various specifications due to material controls are “World War Ⅱ model”.
Born from the production background in the war, there were a wide variety of types without uniformity. RESOLUTE follows vintage details such as a donut-shaped top button engraved with a laurel , a coin pocket without rivets, and thick belt loops. The rise is deep, the waist position is raised, and the silhouette wraps around the hips.
