Yelp is very helpful in the bay area, but while I was traveling in Europe I had to rely on Google over Yelp. I guess yelp is still working on these international branches. I say that because this location shows on Google maps, but not Yelp. Anyways..
Evisu is a brand that primarily focuses on Japanese selvage denim. I've personally always wanted a pair for reasons too extensive to mention in this review. While I was in London, I thought it would be a great opportunity to finally pick a pair up.
Finding the store itself was a little difficult, it's not on a main street.
This little shop claims to be Evisu's flagship shop in London despite its small boutique size. Although small, they offer quite a large selection of jeans and even some other apparel. They even have their own in house artisan painter to customize your jeans for you. Unfortunately, I found the cut I wanted, but not the color. I was informed by the friendly employees that it would take 7 days to customize, and they will not ship. I was only in London for 4 more days from the day I visited. After several attempts to negotiate a method of transaction, I was a bit devastated to leave the shop empty handed.
I will definitely be back again unless Evisu decides to open a shop over here on the West Coast. read more
