Kasil Jeans + Kasil Premium Denim = Painting with DenimDesigner David Lim takes denim wear to a new level of style and custom fit. David refers to designing his premium denim collection as, Painting with Denim. To create Kasil’s signature quality jeans, Lim combines innovative designs with high quality denim from mills located in the U.S., Italy, Canada and Japan.

Kasil denim production and manufacturing is based exclusively in the U.S. and outsourced locally to quality contractors. When creating the custom wash, all pre-production samples are created 100 percent by hand. Hand abrasions and other unique techniques are extensively tested and approved before production. All Kasil products are carefully inspected and then shipped to select specialty boutiques and retail stores in America, Japan, Germany, Switzerland, England and Canada.

The denim apparel industry matures as jeans are worn for any and every occasion. Kasil addresses the needs of quality – seeking customers while also exploring a modern interpretation of the quintessential jean. Therefore, Kasil will always be EVOLVING DENIM IDENTITY.

The inspiration for each collection comes from the streets of the major cities of the world. Nylon Squid look at what is happening at true street level. What influential and directional people are really wearing. That can be vintage and recycled, designer and cult brands, high street and chainstore. It’s the individual mixes and styles that truly represent current youth culture. Combining the design and R&D sides together is what generates great collections. The two processes have to work hand in hand. Designers in ivory towers may be able to come up with amazing concepts but true artisanal designers get their hands dirty. Nylon Squid create truly commercial street fashion from the real streets and back.
