    Description

    Please note that, as is often the case with Japanese onewashed denim, the waist size for this jean varies significantly from the tag size. Please refer to our sizing guide for accurate measurements when choosing your size.

    These jeans are made from 14oz original denim woven on the renowned Toyoda G3 shuttle loom, utilising Supima cotton celebrated for its exceptional softness, durability, and glossy finish, which guarantees both comfort and durability.

    The Toyoda G3 loom, a unique machine introduced over 50 years ago, creates distinctively rugged, textured denim with even yarn distribution. Its maintenance is complicated due to the scarcity of replacement parts and its limited output of just 5 metres of fabric per hour. Nevertheless, select Japanese brands uphold the G3 loom's legacy, crafting original denim of unmatched quality and character.

    The slim straight fit features a mid-rise waist, providing a timeless and adaptable silhouette. Noteworthy details include original brand-engraved iron buttons, copper rivets, a green tab on the back pocket, and a premium zipper made in the USA—each an indicator of exceptional quality and careful craftsmanship. These jeans are unsanforized but have undergone one washing, ensuring there will be no further shrinkage.

    Founded in 1995, FOB Factory is a Japanese denim brand and factory based in Kojima, Okayama Prefecture. The brand focuses on crafting high-quality, handmade denim jeans and apparel using vintage weaving techniques and premium materials. Their design aesthetic draws inspiration from vintage Americana, featuring classic silhouettes and cuts that blend comfort with style.

    What Is Selvedge Denim?

    Originally the denim cloth used to make jeans was produced on shuttle looms. These produced a tightly woven cloth by passing a continuous thread backwards and forwards. The resulting fabric was narrow and had finished edges or self-edges, hence the term selvedge. This fabric was relatively costly and slow to produce as were the jeans fashioned from it. When the demand for jeans rose dramatically in the latter half of the 20th century production methods were inevitably altered to create cheaper fabrics that could be produced in higher volumes. Shuttle looms were abandoned in favour of projectile looms which were quicker, which produced wider cloth and which did not use continuous threads. Denim now had unfinished edges with a frayed appearance.

    Selvedge Denim Care

    Here at JEANSTORE we have a few tips on how you can keep your selvedge denim looking its best - by following these simple instructions you can ensure your jeans last longer, retain their shape and colour, and reduce your environmental impact too.

    • First and foremost, always follow the care instructions on the inside label of your jeans. Different jeans will have different recommendations, and these can vary depending on the nature of the fabric and the dye, amongst other things.

    • To soak or not to soak? It's personal preference, but with raw/unwashed/rigid denim there will be a lot of dye on the fabric that will bleed at first. You can soak your jeans inside out in warm water for 2 hours and hang dry before first wash to get rid of some of the dye, and make them feel less stiff/starchy. Others just put them straight on and don't care if their legs and shoes end up blue!

    • 'Breaking them in'. Two things to consider - is the denim raw or pre-washed? If washed, there won't be much 'breaking in' - that bit has been done for you.
      For raw and rigid denim, the general consensus is to wear the jeans for as long as possible before the first wash. Nudie Jeans Co. recommends wearing your raw denim for 6 months without washing. It's not compulsory, but the longer you wear them, the better they'll fit, and the better they'll fade.
      Secondly, is the denim sanforized (pre-shrunk) or unsanforized (shrink-to-fit)? Most selvedge denim we stock - even if raw/rigid - will be pre-shrunk to eliminate unexpected sizing changes. This means you can generally trust the size guide. If buying unsanforized denim, there's always an element of risk, so please ensure you follow the size guide and the washing instructions carefully! With shrink-to-fit jeans, they really can become the best denim you've ever owned as they mould to your body shape. You'll also get the most natural fades.

    • Try and wash your jeans once every 10 wears at most. Sometimes this just isn't possible, but it's a good guide to follow. Every wash puts strain on the fibres and 'wears' them, so the less you wash your jeans, the longer they'll last. We always recommend hand-washing selvedge denim.

    • Always wash your jeans inside out. This reduces dye/colour loss. If using a washing machine, keep the load minimal - if your jeans are too creased, the dye may fade more heavily along creases, causing streaky lines on your jeans.

    • If possible, always hand wash. It's not a deal-breaker, but it is much gentler on the fabric and you'll find your jeans fade more 'naturally'. If using a washing machine, keep the heat low and use a slower cycle. With raw denim, ensure you wash them separately for the first 5 washes, as the dye will bleed and transfer to other garments. Also be careful when sitting on light coloured surfaces or wearing white shoes.

    • Use natural detergents where possible. You don't want those nasty chemicals damaging your jeans, or the environment.

    • Don't tumble dry! Well, you can (we do, sometimes) but results can vary. If you're in a rush and need to tumble your jeans, ensure you keep the heat low. Excessive tumble drying can change the size/shape/fit of your jeans, and they'll often feel tighter when they come out. This isn't always a problem with stretch jeans, as after several wears they can feel a bit loose. Often any changes in your denim as a result of tumble drying are a result of the machine - not the denim.
      With selvedge denim, we always recommend hang-drying rather than a tumble dryer.
