Japanese Selvedge Denim Jean
Our classic regular fit jean is updated with a lighter weight and softer 13oz Japanese Selvedge denim with a white edge. This is our take on selvedge denim – we give it a light wash for a soft handle and a broken-in feel. Wear these jeans with a white Classic T-shirt for a timeless contemporary look.
Selvedge denim is made with shuttle looms moving at a slower pace and putting less tension on the yarn, which adds character to the denim. As a sign of the quality the Selvedge or edge of the fabric is left visible. It's crafted for us at the Kuroki mill in the city of Ibara, Okayama. Since 1965 the factory has specialised in rope-dyeing denim, a time-intensive process that gives a rich indigo. River water used by the mill to soften the fabric is treated and recycled for use in the rice paddies of Okayama.

Japanese Denim
Our Japanese denim is made for us at the Kuroki mill in the city of Ibara, Okayama. Since 1965 the factory has specialised in rope-dyeing denim, a technique that gives a rich indigo colour and allows the fabric to develop an authentic fade. The Kuroki mill carries out the entire process from dyeing to weaving to finishing the denim. The natural water that flows past the mill is used to soften the fabric – and after use the water is treated and returned to the river to irrigate the local fields.
The weight of our denim is 13oz, making it a light to midweight denim, and it is given a slight stretch to enhance the comfort further. We offer a simple choice of dark rinse wash or regular wash and two fits – slim or regular.
