We’d like introduce you to our newest stockist, Partisan Style. We were pleased to learn that Partisan’s bias is towards selling goods that are exclusively made in the USA, and while we don’t talk about politics on the Rising Sun blog we’ll admit that we’re partisan to American made goods as well. Even more exciting news is that Partisan Style is Rising Sun’s first online-only stockist, which means you can order Rising Sun wares at all hours of the night, and have it shipped to your doorstep.
Partisan’s knowledge and appreciation for the craftsmanship of the past provides a foundation for current lasting style. We at Rising Sun are honored to be included within this curated selection.

Here at Rising Sun we crave the authentic things in life. This is why we often look to workwear of the past for inspiration. There is one iconic worker who had to take lots of abuse and still look rugged and handsome at the end of the day. The Ranch Hand.
Once again, Rising Sun’s Ranch Hand Jacket brings the this rugged charm back to life.
Since we know many of you have been waiting, we are happy to announce them finished just in time for the cold winter weather. This two pocket, pleated jacket, made from our signature brown duck is a timeless piece. We kept the details the same, using tobacco colored contrast duck on the inside of the waist band and the cuffs, and a steel buckle made from bending steel wiring as a back detail.
Thats right you can now find us in Switzerland! VMC Original is dedicated to keeping alive a history of great workmanship done with quality materials. Rising Sun is right at home in their shop and we are very pleased to be there. Next time you are in Zürich stop in and say “hallo” and check out their extensive denim collection.
We are very happy to be a part of the opening of Unionville in Sweden. It is a shop after our own heart. Here is what they have to say about themselves:
“Unionville is all about mens clothes. Clothes that are made with passion and with huge attention to details. We love the hand-craft that these brands and persons put in to the garments. Unionville is our salute to those. Timeless style, from the 50′s, the pre-war era, the Great Depression and even earlier.”
Unionville is located at Katarina Bangata 69 on the Södermalm island, in Stockholm Sweden.
We are privileged to be a part of a curated collection of American-made garments for Orvis, the outdoor outfitters. Fifteen years ago, Mike was fly-fishing in Alaska wearing an Orvis Wading Jacket, little did he know then; that sometime in the future, his two passions would come together.
We are honored to be presenting these items as a part of the fall collection on their website and in select retail stores.
Here are the items we made for them:
Miners Pants
This is a special well-worn washed version of our Worker pants, made out of the duck canvas.
Long-Sleeve Racer Tee Shirt
Some style blogs around the internet have started waxing praise for the Miners Pants:
10 Engines:
“These might be the most pined for item already…”
Guide To Bad Taste:
“Rising Sun… has got their grapefruit together on these pants.”
As there is a positive expectation building about these items it seems that they wont last long. There are limited quantities available and Orvis has chosen to offer them for a special price to their customers… less than what we retail them for in our shop. This is a perfect opportunity for the individuals who have expressed interest in purchasing Rising Sun product but have had difficulty locating and attaining it due to our limited production and distribution.
Good Luck!
If you missed the Man Up pop up market in San Francisco in January you may still view some super rare Rising Sun pieces at this week’s Inspiration show in Santa Monica this weekend. We will be unveiling a collaboration with Deadgrass focused on really amazing pre-1900′s workwear that the world has not seen since, well, the 1800′s. More on that later.
Right now check out some great pics the Man Up team sent us of the event. They did such a great job!
Rising Sun will be participating at the San Francisco Man Up pop up market, which starts this Friday and runs through the weekend. Since their website describes the event so well we replicate their text here.
“Real men care about the way they look and how they spend their money. Man Up. aims to improve both. There’s nothing manly about looking like a slob. Man Up. is hosted by the Durable Goods Concern–four guys who enjoy well-crafted, fine-looking products that last. They also like to drink.”
There will be free drinks and art. It will also be a good opportunity to see Rising Sun pieces that are not normally shown outside Pasadena where we make our haberdashery home. In addition to our well-appointed jeans (Yukon, Blacksmith, Standard, Ride’em) SF shoppers can also examine our selvage indigo canvas Outdoor Vest, hats, tees, jackets, and other goods made in our shop with our own hands with the help of some very antique and vintage sewing machines.
This here is a crate full of stuff we shipped up for the event.
Event: Man Up.
Who: Rising Sun, Unionmade, A-B Fits, Taylor Stitch, Room4 Vintage, more
When: January 29th (3-9pm), 30th (11am-7pm), and 31st (11am-6pm), 2010
