A new item has been born in the gaming device industry.
The "Gaming Jeans," jointly developed with a professional gamer, are now available for pre-order on the crowdfunding service "Campfire.
Jeans made with sitting in mind
Gaming Je ans" is a pair of jeans with the theme of " Sitting x Fashion " developed by " Bobson ", a long-established domestic jeans brand in Okayama, and " SETOUCHI ENLIFE ", a pro-gaming team. The jeans are made with the theme of "Sitting x Fashion".
The jeans are not equipped with LEDs, so please note that they do not glow.
With more and more people working from home and spending more and more time sitting down during the day, not to mention while playing games, the world's most worn jeans were created to be comfortable and fashion able without being confined by conventional concepts, focusing on "sitting. Gaming Jeans" are comfortable and fashionable jeans that have been created without being bound by conventional concepts.
The word "gaming" and the fact that it has been jointly developed with the professional gaming team "SETOUCHI ENLIFE" means, of course, that these are not just any jeans!
Let us introduce their features!
Banana Shape for Ease on the Knees!
Ordinary jeans are made with the assumption that the wearer is standing upright, so when you sit or squat down, your knees are stiff.
This is not only stressful, but also places a load on the body because of the tugging.
Gaming Jeans" are made with a sewing method called " Banana Shape ", which is a three-dimensional cut from the sitting position.
Although this method uses more articles than usual and requires a lot of time and effort to join them together, the jeans are made so that the knees do not stick out in all postures, including sitting, standing, and bending over.
No back pockets!
Back pockets are a common feature of many bottoms, including jeans.
While they are convenient for storing smartphones and wallets, sitting for long periods of time with things in the back pockets can cause distortion of the pelvis.
Gaming Jeans" are designed specifically for sitting, and the back pockets have been purposely removed!
If there are no pockets, you won't have to sit with your stuff in them, and it's a bold move to just remove them!
But just removing the back pocket would make the design look sleek and lonely, so we have used double stitching and a fabric turnover in the design work to achieve both a distinctive design and strength.
Dedicated smartphone pocket that is easy to use even when sitting down
For the absence of a back pocket, a dedicated pocket for a smartphone is provided in addition to the front waist pocket, making it easy to put in and out a smartphone.
This pocket is very easy to use, as it is located in a position that allows you to smoothly insert and remove your smartphone while seated and does not get in the way of bending over, and it is generously designed to fit even a thick organizer-type smartphone case.
Side design pocket that can be used while sitting down
One of the most eye-catching features of the "Gaming Jeans" design is the zipper located on the right thigh.
The zipper is a design accent, but when you open the zipper, you will see that it is a pocket!
The lack of a back pocket, along with a dedicated pocket for a smartphone, makes this a pocket that is not normally found in jeans.
It is set in a position that allows you to use it even when you are sitting down, so it will be useful for storing small things.
Stretch denim with excellent texture
Normal jeans are made of denim, which is durable, but the fabric is hard and can be a bit tiring to wear.
Therefore, the manufacturer Bobson, utilizing its denim know-how accumulated over many years, has selected a denim with a moderate thickness that can be worn all year round, a casual yet high-grade, even texture, and excellent stretchability for "Gaming Jeans".
The stretchiness allows you to wear them comfortably not only for standing and sitting, but also for everyday use.
Easy Adjustment with Elastic and Laces
The "Gaming Jeans" can be easily adjusted and removed with elastic and ties at the waist.
Even though they can be adjusted with elastic and ties, they do not give the impression of easy pants because the jeans face is firmly molded.
Add some personality with the belt loops!
The waist can be adjusted with elastic and ties, but belt loops are also included.
Show off your individuality with a unique belt coordinate or accessories attached to the belt loops for a different look!
Two colors for both men and women
The "Gaming Jeans" are designed for both men and women.
プロゲーマーと考えた座る×ファッション【BOBSONゲーミングジーンズ】解説 They are available in two colors: a standard denim color that can be worn casually, and a black denim color that can be easily matched with more subdued fashions.
The design of the "Denim Jones" is so unique that it can be worn with sneakers and a hoodie, or with boots and a jacket, so even if you have one of each color, it will be an item that you will wear frequently.
Two paid options to choose from
Two additional options are available for the "Gaming Jeans.
The first is " Anti-static treatment ".
Static electricity is the natural enemy of people who handle PCs and precision equipment in the IT and e-sports industries.
Antistatic treatment" is Bobson's proprietary formula that halves the amount of static electricity on jeans.
The second option is the " Antibacterial + Water Repellent + Stain Resistance " option.
Because these are "gaming jeans" that are worn on a daily basis, it is great that they are processed to repel water, prevent stains, repel oil, and inhibit the growth of bacteria, so they can be used safely and cleanly.
In addition, it is quick-drying, UV-cut, and discoloration-resistant, so it also prevents color tanning caused by UV rays.
The anti-bacterial is made from a naturally derived ingredient extracted from grapefruit seeds, so it is safe for babies and environmentally friendly.
