    Samurai Jeans S520XX21oz Relaxed Taper model

    RELAXED FIT
    TAPERED LEG
    MID RISE
    BUTTON FLY
    100% COTTON 21OZ CHO-KIWAMI SELVEDGE DENIM
    SHOGYO-MUJO JACQUARD LINING
    IRON MADE RISING-SUN BUTTON
    COPPER MADE RIVETS
    SHEEP LEATHER PATCH
    HIDDEN ARC ON BACK POCKETS

    MADE IN JAPAN.

    Unsanforized denim, one washed to remove shrinkage.

    The hem is narrow, the waist is regular, the hips and rise are relaxed, and it has a stress-free tapered silhouette.

    The denim fabric is "The Strongest 21oz Special Selvedge". It is the ultimate 21oz super-heavyweight denim that is not only thick but also focused on colour fading and texture, which makes a special thick uneven thread of 3.6 and is driven it to the limit with an old-fashioned force loom.

    The leather patch for the S520XX21oz special leather patch is a huge 21oz specification Musashi Kojiro, and the half moon has the meaning of a tapered silhouette that narrows toward the hem. Also features an iron sunrise button, SAMURAI woven label and copper coin-shaped rivets.

    The sewing is mainly two colours, banana yellow and golden brown, and it is adjusted according to the characteristics of each part, such as count, needle, and stitch width. In addition, the entire rake with samurai flounder stitching on the back pockets is stretched, and as the jeans fade over time it results in a "hidden seagull stitch". 

    Cho-Kiwami Selvedge denim:

    Woven on vintage wooden shuttle looms, only the weaving craftsmen of the highest merit and skill were able to tame the looms that created tough denim over 20oz.
    Their blood, sweat and soul are symbolised by the strands of red and gold lamé which run along the selvedge line of this 21oz denim.

    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.
