April 77, out of Paris, launched a limited jean which comes in a vintage Gibson Guitar case. Production was limited to 500 pieces. April 77 seem to be leaving their mark on the current denim trade. With the current Rock/Punk influence and the skinny/raw denim as common as it is, April 77 are sure to continue expanding.
