Vintage Evisu No.2 Selvedge Jeans Big RED Painted Seagull | Made in Japan Raw Denim | W31 × L35 Heritage Denim

Classic Evisu No.2 Japanese Selvedge Denim Featuring Iconic Hand-Painted Red Seagull

One of the most recognizable icons in Japanese denim history, these authentic Evisu No.2 jeans feature the legendary oversized hand-painted red seagull (kamome) spanning both rear pockets and extending dramatically down each leg. Crafted in Japan from heavyweight 100% cotton selvedge denim, this early-era pair captures the bold spirit that helped define Osaka's premium denim movement.

With crisp raw indigo denim, copper hardware, leather waist patch, and unmistakable painted arcuate, this pair offers exceptional appeal for collectors of Japanese heritage workwear and vintage streetwear.

Design Character

Nothing identifies an authentic pair of vintage Evisu faster than its sweeping painted gull. Here, the oversized crimson brushstroke dominates the back of the jeans, creating a dramatic visual signature that has become one of the most influential motifs in modern denim history.

The dark indigo body provides the perfect contrast against the vivid hand-painted artwork, while classic five-pocket construction keeps the silhouette rooted in vintage American workwear traditions interpreted through Japanese craftsmanship.

This is the aesthetic that made Evisu a cult favorite among denim enthusiasts, collectors, hip-hop artists, and streetwear pioneers worldwide.

Heritage

Founded in Osaka in 1991 by Hidehiko Yamane, Evisu revived traditional shuttle-loom denim production at a time when most manufacturers had abandoned it. Early No.2 denim became renowned for combining rugged Japanese construction with individually hand-painted seagull logos, making every pair slightly unique.
