  2. I once heard that name change from evis to evisu was the result of a legal threat from Levis, as Evisu had started in an closed Levis factory, and their early logo was basically the Levi's logo without the L. Anyone know if there's any truth to that? Melander 02:10, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

    Sounds real unlikely. "Evisu" is a coy re-spelling of "Ebisu" who is a lucky god in Japan. But maybe you knew that. Then again, they are based in Osaka, Yakuza capital of Japan, and a hub of Japanese brand rip-offs. So maybe! You like how I contradicted myself in a single comment? brain 18:38, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
    1. There was no threat from Levi's. The logo was an homage to Levi's. During WW2 Levi's was not allowed to use thread to sew their logo on the pockets of their jeans for conservation purposes, so they painted the logos on the pockets. As such, Evisu is honoring that tradition. They have gone through many legal discussions with Levi's and it has all been settled properly. 2. The name DID come from the lucky god in Japan, but he happens to be the god of money, and Hidehiko Yamane wanted to make money so he named the brand Evisu / Ebisu.

  3. Evisu or Evisu Genes is a Japanese designer clothing company that specializes in producing denim wear through traditional, labor-intensive methods.

    The brand was founded in 1991 in Osaka, Japan, by Hidehiko Yamane.

    The initial production line allowed about 14 pairs of jeans a day to be produced, with each of them having a seagull (kamome) hand painted on them by Yamane himself. Ebisu is the name of the Japanese folk god of money who is usually portrayed with a fishing rod. His name was selected for the new venture as money and fishing are two of Yamane's five favorite things.[citation needed]

    In the early 1990s Yamane introduced a tailoring line, followed by fishing and golf lines. In 1999, he introduced a ladies fashion line called Evisu Donna to complete the development of Evisu as a full-fashion range going far beyond a jeans brand. Evisu now[when?] has 65 shops in Japan.

    In March 2006, the company and Yamane were reported to Tokyo District Public Prosecutor's Office with another firm on suspicion of tax evasion. Yamane and the two firms stood accused of concealing more than 500 million yen of income as well as evading some 160 million yen in taxes over three years.[1][2]

    In 2009, Evisu was relaunched, and Scott Morrison, the co-founder of Paper Denim & Cloth and Earnest Sewn, was added to the Evisu team as CEO and creative Director.[3]
