Denim Dudes by Amy Leverton (Laurence King Publishers, 272 pages) $33.50
Denim has been part of most men's wardrobes since Levi's made the first pair in 1873.
From its very practical beginnings, it has grown into a multi-billion-dollar industry. With manufacturers and designers worldwide it is truly a global fabric.
Amy Leverton has been working in fashion and specifically denim for years and focuses her attention in this book on the male connection to it around the world.
With hundreds of colour images filling the pages we are given a look at the state of the denim nation in a huge range of countries.
The book features designers, storeowners, fashion leaders and some great looking styles from the streets of Europe, Japan, America and more. Every guy is pictured in at least two photographs to show off his favourite denim attire.
