Fusion of kimono coloring and jeans durability. Lady's jeans got more flowers and colorful paintings. On the other hand, men's jeans has no flower design.

Price range is from ¥20,000 to ¥50,000. May seem expensive at first glance but even I am fed up with mass produced products. I want to open up savings account for jeans.
