The standard denim “946” fitting line features a wider, more tapered fit than the “980”. This model is characterized by its deep rise and relaxed silhouette. The back style, with its yokeless design and cinch back, along with the slit coin pocket, evokes the workwear of the 1930s, giving it a very classic look. It also features pressed creases, lending a refined appearance to these work pants.

12.4oz OLDJOE original denim: We meticulously crafted this original bulky yarn to create a rustic nep texture. In Ibara, the denim production center, the warp yarns are dyed with a deep black indigo dye, using uneven and strongly nepped yarns. For the weft, we carefully selected relatively beige-toned cotton and used a strong twist to create the yarn. (While not brown cotton, it still retains a strong raw feel). The fabric undergoes only a special sanforization (preshrinking) process from its raw, loom-state condition (known as “kibata”). This differs from typical preshrinking methods, resulting in a soft fabric rather than the hard surface associated with rigid denim. We have successfully created an elegant denim fabric without compromising the inherent softness of kibata denim. The fabric weight is 12.4 ounces.
