The B-07 RELAXED STRAIGHT was introduced last year and is the fullest jeans cut available in our collection. It’s essentially our B-04 cut with a wider leg. Both the B-04 and B-07 feature a tilted top block, which lowers the front rise and raises the back rise. This design creates a relaxed silhouette with plenty of room for movement. The fit has been in-demand ever since its inception, which is why we are adding two new fabric options to the lineup: 15.5 oz. Kojima selvedge & 14 oz. selvedge colour denim / ecru.

15.5 oz. Kojima selvedge

The name of this fabric derives from its place of creation, the rural town of Kojima, situated in the Okayama prefecture and known for its blossoming denim industry. It's a traditional red cast Japanese denim woven at a low tension for extra comfort and breathability. This fabric has a high fading potential; over time the denim will mature into a bright blue hue with indigo nuances. The construction is slubby and uneven. This adds a subtle element of depth to the fabric and contributes to the unique evolution of the denim. The fabric was introduced in 2017 as part of our first denim fading contest and was added to the core collection the year after. Woven by Collect Mills, it’s also the first Japanese fabric ever used in our ‘European made’ line. It may be considered as the Japanese counterpart of our 15.5 oz. RCI selvedge, which shows a handful of similarities but also enough differences to co-exist.

14 oz. selvedge colour denim / ecru

The 14 oz. selvedge colour denim is a special program that involves a classic denim construction, available in various colours, that are different from the usual dark indigo tones. This Japanese right hand twill construction has an uneven structure which provides depth to the surface of the fabric. The weft of the fabric is undyed, just like regular denim. This version also has an ecru warp, leaving the fabric completely undyed. The garments have been pre-washed in the factory for easy wear comfort and each colour has matching tonal stitching, as well as a colour-themed jacron patch, to accompany the fabric. 14 oz. selvedge colour denim is woven by Collect Mills in Kojima, Japan, and is one of our core fabrics in the ‘European made’ line.
