The True Straight 15.5oz 'Okayama' Japan Selvage Denim

We often acquire over runs and dead stock from our fabric sources in the US and Japan and this was an awesome find. A saturated indigo with a semi slubby yarn weighing in at a solid 15.5oz which in our opinion is the sweet spot between a medium and heavy weight. The face of the denim has a slight hairiness which is a throwback to old finishing techniques where they skip the singeing of the denim. Singeing or gassing is a process where they pass the denim over an open flame to burn off the cotton fibers. These fine hairs will eventually wear off after the break in period. This is a great weight for the denim head that needs time off from heavyweights as this is a great all year quality. Red selvage iD ticker.
