DanielleI'm quite disappointed at the recent denim drops. It seems like zero consideration was given to poll results, and it clearly shows in the 3-4 failed drops that's been recently attempted/are in progress.
Please do not adopt the mentality that just because the Momotaro and Japan Blue drops were successful that any raw denim brand you can find to collaborate with will be. I understand that Massdrop is new to the raw denim space, and there are many nuances in this niche market that you are probably unfamiliar with.
A failed drop is both bad PR for the company, a bad experience/waste of browsing time for the customer, and also wasted time on your behalf to put it together. I've compiled a fairly lengthy list of brands that I'm sure will be successful. If you'd like to replicate the success of previous denim drops, I'd strongly suggest you look into collaborating with these manufacturers first before considering smaller lesser known companies:
- Samurai - Momotaro - Pure Blue Japan - Skull - Flathead - Eternal - Studio d'Artisan - Naked and Famous - 3sixteen - Fullcount & Co. - Somet - Japan Blue - Iron Heart - Imperial

peepeee@Peter,
Thanks for your feedback.
We are actively engaged in discussion with a few of the brands you listed. Structuring drops for clothing products tend to be quite a bit more complex than others with many more moving parts. So while the ball is definitely moving towards the right direction for many of the popular brands that you are looking for, we still have some way to go before being able to list them on Massdrop.
On the other hand, raw denim brands that are slightly smaller than the ones you listed tend to be quite a bit more responsive, reactive and eager to work with the group. And that's why we've been able to bring them on board that much faster.
Stay tuned, we will be bringing a lot more awesome raw denim jeans on Massdrop. And I am sure you'll love what we have coming up :)
