Starting in 2007, he defied industry norms by making premium denim without a factory, using vintage machines he believed produced superior stitches and soulful details. Within a year, his limited runs sold out in minutes, drawing global acclaim and lines stretching for hours. Though he retired in 2021, his legacy lives on, inspiring a new generation of independent makers. Beyond denim, he chased skateboarding, swimming, and even part-time restaurant work — always curious, always kind, always making the world a little more handmade.
