Description

Our slim-fit champ Lean Dean in a new spectacular deep-tone, vintage-like, comfort stretch selvedge denim from Kurabo, Japan. This unique selvedge denim emerged from a close collaboration with Kurabo, aiming to blend the rustic charm of vintage denim with modern comfort stretch.Crafted to exude the aura of a '50s vintage selvedge denim, we opted for a rigid-like construction that accentuates the weft. Notably, the chosen warp and weft yarns possess a distinctive slubbiness, offering the dry denim an irregular appearance that enhances its rustic allure, and which will become more pronounced as the denim ages. The warp yarns, dyed with pure indigo, underwent an additional dip compared to Kurabo's regular deep indigo tone. By elevating the standard 8 dips of pure indigo to 9, we deepened the indigo hue, enhancing the denim's aesthetic quality and aging property.To intensify the vintage aesthetics, we deliberately refrained from fully finishing the denim by modern standards. By bypassing the singeing process that typically removes protruding fibers, the Apex showcases a slightly 'hairy' appearance, akin to vintage deadstock denim. Our deliberate choice of a deep navy color for the selvedge contrast yarn ensures that the Apex stands out within our selvedge range. As the denim ages, this contrast will become even more striking, adding a unique edge to its evolving characterWe're honored to collaborate with Kurabo and introduce Apex. We're very excited about the rustic charm it brings our selvedge range and hope you appreciate it as much as we do.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.
