Slim fit jeans with a slim leg in a remarkable Japanese stretch selvage denim meticulously woven by the legendary Kaihara Mills in Japan. This orange-line selvage, exclusively woven for us, boasts a rigid-like texture with pronounced coarseness and a distinct 3-dimensional feel, accentuated by clear twill lines. The ring-spun warp and weft yarns offer moderate slubbiness, promising a distinct salt-and-pepper texture as the denim ages, and revealing clear twill lines in areas prone to abrasion. Achieved through 20 rounds of dip-dyeing in pure indigo, Kaihara's darkest and most saturated hue graces the warp yarns, the most important feature of the Dry Japan Selvage. This ensures that the warp yarns ages into clear, redcast, blue hues over time while maintaining contrast and depth in areas untouched by wear. Dry Japan Selvage has demonstrated exceptional aging qualities over the years, earning its place as one of our most cherished Japanese selvage denims, now available in Solid Ollie. Enjoy the journey! We recommend a minimum of 6 months of daily wear before the first wash, although longer wear enhances the unique aging process. While it may seem lengthy, it's a suggestion; your jeans will acquire character with love and wear.
