Iconic EVISU No.2 Denim with Hand-Painted White Seagull Back Print
One of the most recognizable symbols in Japanese denim history, these authentic EVISU Yamane No.2 jeans showcase the legendary oversized white seagull (kamome) hand-painted pocket design that helped define Osaka's premium denim movement during the golden era of Japanese repro jeans.
Crafted in Japan from heavyweight indigo cotton denim, this pair embodies EVISU's philosophy of traditional craftsmanship, durable construction, and distinctive artisan finishing. The naturally aged white gull paint has developed beautiful vintage cracking, giving the jeans an authentic patina highly sought after by denim collectors.
Design Character
Minimal from the front and unmistakable from behind, these jeans celebrate one of the most influential signatures in denim history.
The oversized white seagull sweeps dramatically across both rear pockets and extends onto the seat, creating EVISU's instantly recognizable visual identity. Unlike modern printed reproductions, the original painted finish has aged naturally over time, developing fine craquelure that enhances its vintage appeal.
Rich rope-dyed indigo denim is complemented by warm contrast stitching, copper rivets, and a beautifully worn leather waist patch that reflects years of honest aging.

Iconography & Heritage
Founded by Hidehiko Yamane in Osaka in 1991, EVISU became one of the pioneers of the Japanese premium denim movement.
The famous "Kamome" (seagull) mark was originally hand-painted onto finished jeans, making every pair slightly unique. Over time, naturally worn paint became a badge of authenticity among denim enthusiasts, reflecting years of wear rather than imperfections.
No.2 denim was designed to deliver the same heritage craftsmanship with a softer, more wearable character while preserving EVISU's unmistakable identity.
