I'm glad we have a person like Ken making videos because it shows us what freedom of expression and accessibility in clothing looks like in Japan. Where I live most guys are only dressed in the most casual items from fast fashion stores at the mall, and those guys are the same people that will question someone who does choose to express themselves differently. Seeing videos like this is a breath of fresh air.
I have a over sized flannel from balenciga that fits exactly like the one he show cased but I think it’s an alright idea for ppl who can’t afford balenciga so they can get attentive version and know they’ll get quality after all balenciga flannel is 2k u can find one cheaper but maybe kens flannel will be 450 to 500? We’ll see
@@hectorgarcia5004 I think he just really liked it and wanted to remake it for his brand. He kept talking about how much he liked it when he got it. It’s fine to have influence. I don’t think he’s copying anyone one to one.
I think this a good example of a brand that doesn't have a firm identity & design language. Just like what Issey Miyake said "Why bother designing unless you have a unique point of view".
Although it may not be a completely “ unique” point of view the pieces I’ve purchased from Vuja De are solid pieces I’ll keep in my wardrobe for many years and have been worn for many years as well.
Can’t help but think back to the days where the team was just Ringo Tom and Kohei. Many probably disagree but I feel like very little of the charm the brand had then is still there today. Most pieces are just remakes of other designers out now
Ken was always making pieces that fit his own style at that time. Back then it was ch, visvim, helmut etc. now it’s Balenciaga. Their ethos hasn’t changed, the inspiration has.
I feel like ken is surfing the wave that everybody is on rn but when the next wave gonna start is prolly gonna be the first one on it we just need to give him sum times managing a brand is not easy at all especially the way that he does it ,Shits it’s not like one of them streetwear brand that print Asian girls with guns on hoodies and call it a day bro has a whole team and everything with him fabrics Sourcers and everything he just needs to found his voice n let his heart speak but what he has done with vuja de is truly amazing already if we’re being honest 🙏
@@allen.t “out now” is key. I don’t personally mind if he’s taking inspo and making a cargo off the 98 langs that no one can buy right now. It’s like an update on an old design, which is actually literally what “vuja de” means lmao. But selling clothes that are essentially knock off Balenciaga’s current collection is different.
Ken is so charming I love watching this creative process videos! I miss my creative friends. On a normal day we will just do lookbook shoots of indie labels and we just hangout and drink bubble tea while someone else would cook nibbles. This is beautiful to watch ❤🎉
These videos are very inspirational to my creative side of my mind. This type of video shots and editing are so organic, refreshing. Thank You and keep moving forward
When ken was telling the girl how they all knew each other, me and the girl said "ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh" at the same time lol ........ great video ken, I love these.
Been watching your shit for years and to see how far you came bro, that shit inspiring. Still a long way to go, so keep it up and keep dropping content! ✌🏾
Gathering inspiration comes with regurgitation. I don’t know what you guys expect. If one leans towards a specific style of course one will reference specific motifs like tones and silhouettes. Respect the finer details put into each product, which seems certainly difficult to produce and allocate. Ken’s attention to detail is out of this world.
@@matthewdancel8823 it's a love hate relationship 😭 by saying i don't care I mainly meant the discount code and his products though. still enjoy the videos
for the white t shirt did y'all do a screen print for the VD logo or is that DTG? really curious how you got the ink to come out that way and have that texture
Mommy I shouldn’t get in trouble for cheating on the test because all my friends did too!! What are you twelve? Other TH-camrs doing the same uninspiring work doesn’t mean Ken doing it is somehow excused or dope
@@jamesleland2691 im not saying he is excusable lmao he definitely took inspiration/copy from virgil and helmut lang early on. Im just saying keep that same energy for all the other youtubers
@@allen.t honestly. Ken is ALWAYS taking slack for his brand direction, whilst his contemporaries are doing the same thing he is. I’d say the only exception might be Giz, but I’d buy into Vuja De way before Cmmawear eitherway.
Question how do you run a brand in 22 without making a huge presence on social media and if you live in the United States can you have clothes manufactured in Japan?

agreed
It's like that over here in Toronto. Everybody dresses really basic
let me guess ur from New Zealand？
literally 95% of dudes in colorado, head to toe in pacsun and h&m garbage
@@ziqiangzhao3188 Noo, Canada
Big Balenciaga and visvim influence in this collection. That flannel reminds me of the Balenci one he had.
Balenci right? Not prada
@@romarioputra3775 yea Balenci, I went back and corrected it. I was thinking Balenci but wrote Prada lmao
You saw the americas cup and I think that’s where you made that mistake lol

Ken and Kanawa have gathered quite a team. Love the creative energy.
This is basically kens take on Balenciaga especially that flannel or a over sized pants

@@Shitgotmegeekin the knit sweaters were made in China… I think that’s an ethos change lmao
liking the trackies and sweats the most since the denim is something that's easier to find an alternative to
Im pretty sure you can not find their denim with the exact fit except maybe balenci?
@@romarioputra3775 hm probably can find something that's close while thrifting but that's more of an effort because you need a lot of luck aswell
@@romarioputra3775 acne studios 2021 or 2022 denim, both models are extremely similar in fit, and Acne jeans are very decent quality.
The over sized Jean looks actually kinda cool idk 🤷🏾♂️
Can't wait to drop out of school so I have money for this collection. Thanks, Ken!
love this type of vlogging, hyped for the new collection even tho I can't afford it lmao
fr
real
Glad to finally see some ladies on his clip. Much better.
Balenciaga, visvim and yzy gap 😢Really hope to see something more unique that resonates with VU in the future
Idk what it is about his videos but they make me super inspired and motivated
Ken is so charming I love watching this creative process videos! I miss my creative friends. On a normal day we will just do lookbook shoots of indie labels and we just hangout and drink bubble tea while someone else would cook nibbles. This is beautiful to watch ❤🎉
Inspired by balenci?
These videos are very inspirational to my creative side of my mind. This type of video shots and editing are so organic, refreshing. Thank You and keep moving forward
scared to see the prices on release 💀
I just really hope the padded flannel isn’t a skyrocket price
When ken was telling the girl how they all knew each other, me and the girl said "ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh" at the same time lol ........ great video ken, I love these.
deeds better fire up the machine's
this is a deep cut😂
I could say that I love everything from this collection already lmao. well done guys! great video too
Been watching your shit for years and to see how far you came bro, that shit inspiring. Still a long way to go, so keep it up and keep dropping content! ✌🏾
Engineered by Balenciaga? The tee VD tee also looks like something from VETEMENTS. Ken you need to make up your mind on your aesthetic.
My favorite weekly uploader
Loool
*monthly
GOAT IS BACK

BEEN WAITING FOREVER !!
the creative process for this collection has my hopes high

The balenciaga type cut type 2 is a really great idea

Hi Vuja Dé, we still did not receive the discount code due to the delay of the varsity jacket.
Customer service bro 😂😂
@@levim.3505 Customer service barely respond my request😢
@@notyang3277 Yeah he is lazy and pretentious. I stopped caring a while ago

helmut lang,galley dept,lv,bottega now balenciaga this brand has no identity
Lmao all of yall are hating but majority of the other fashion TH-camrs copied kiko,rick, ow, and other trendy brands for their clothing lines.

Gotta go prepare a meal to watch this with :) 44 minutes is crazy
Would have been dope if the tees were single stitch
Where is the guy from Sydney, the guy Ken worked with initially when this project started?
the entire team basically being trilingual is actually so sick

Definitely copping the flannel jacket and nylon pants
