Founded by legendary designer Yoshiyuki Hayashi in 2010, Resolute is a Japanese denim brand rooted in decades of expertise and a deep admiration for the Levi’s 501, especially the 66 model. After leading the 1990s replica denim boom as co-founder of Denime, Hayashi created Resolute to honor the golden age of American denim with a focus on timeless fits and everyday wearability.

Made entirely in Japan, Resolute jeans are woven at Shinya Mills in Okayama on vintage looms and sewn in Niimi at a factory once designated for Levi’s Japan. Every pair reflects Hayashi’s commitment to fit, comfort, and durability—offered through four core models designed to suit a range of body types.
