The Denim & Boots Podcast

We're taking a break with the Denim & Boots Podcast. In the meantime, Thomas has launched his own podcast, which is simply called the Denimhunters Podcast. You can subscribe and listen to it here: Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1515082550 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6yIfJzu9FBa7PhpqQq7cD4 Q: So what's happening to the Denim & Boots Podcast? A: It's not going anywhere. But, for the time being, there won't be new episodes published. Q: So, does that mean the won't be any more episodes from the Denim & Boots Podcast? A: We don’t know. Honestly, the reason we're taking a break comes down to busy schedules and 9 hours between us, which makes recording increasingly challenging. Q: Will Jake continue to run the Denim & Boots Podcast on his own then? A: No, the Denim & Boots Podcast is, and will continue to be, a collaborative project between Jake and Thomas. Since the beginning, it's been produced by Thomas.

Jake and Kyle aka @rocktransformed on Instagram discuss the basics that go into a raw denim wardrobe for beginners or anyone looking to go for a minimalist wardrobe without buying too much. If you want more from Kyle, check out his blog: https://rocktransformed.wordpress.com/

On this episode of The Denim & Boots Podcast, Thomas is joined by Robin Meijerink aka Robin Denim. They talk about Robin's story, how he got into denim, and what he's learned from running one of the successful Instagram accounts in the world of raw denim. This podcast is a production of Denimhunters, the platform Thomas started as a denim blog that has become a voice for the denim industry and community. Today, Denimhunters is a consultancy platform, driven by a small team of independent and multidisciplinary pioneers, specialising in business development and communication in the global denim industry. Before the interview with Robin, in the FAQ of the episode, Thomas shares 3 tips to take better photos for Instagram.

In this episode of The Denim and Boots Podcast, Jake is joined by Patrick aka @tichoblancoshoes on Instagram, a boot enthusiast with a large collection who works at Taft in New York City. Together, they discuss the topic of small and one man bootmakers. These are people who take their passion for their craft to the next level, favouring quality and independence over profits.

In this episode of The Denim & Boots Podcast, Thomas is joined by Wouter Munnichs from Long John to talk about vintage denim. Wouter has been collecting vintage denim for +15 years, but his passion for denim goes all the way back to the early 90s when I got a job in the first Diesel store in Holland. He was 17 then. After his time at Diesel, he started a kids brand called Lvis; helped build a successful streetwear brand; and eventually started consulting for the denim industry. This interview was recorded at the Bluezone trade show in Munich in February 2020.
