HIROSHI KATO

The Needle Skinny - Indigo Black Raw 10.5oz Selvedge

$219.00 $153.30

Our premium denim is inspired by the classic vintage blue jean. Our Premium Japanese 4-Way Stretch Selvedge denim story starts in Japan where our fabric is developed at one of the oldest denim mills. We blend a unique 4 way stretch material with selvedge denim to create a specific amount of stretch and comfort you wouldn’t typically get with selvedge denim. This 360 degree of stretch gives the wearer comfort from every angle no matter what they are doing.

Our 4-Way Stretch selvedge fabric is weaved using vintage shuttle looms. Rolls of denim fabric are then brought into our workshop in Los Angeles where each pair goes through a 60 to 90 day process of cut, sew, washing and testing. With 4 fits available in multiple weights (see fit guide) and washes, the style options are endless.

The Needle skinny fits smaller than our the Pen slim fit.

Amazing jeans

My 2nd pair of Kato selvedged jeans. Love these jeans, a unique color blend of black and indigo makes it really versatile with different colored tops. The stretch is perfect and the sturdiness leaves me confident these jeans will last for many years. Color contrast seam stitching is also a great touch! Highly recommend!

Thanks for the review, Danny! We're so happy you like the jeans. They're definitely unique and versatile - perfect for any outfit.

Absolutely Amazing

Absolutely love these jeans. The black is a very rich deep black so they can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. The Kato skinny fit is dialed. It’s the perfect amount of “skinny”. I’ve been a long time loyal Nudie jeans supporter but I would have to say these are a better fit. The front pockets are too shallow and that needs to be fixed, which would be my only complaint. The fit is very true to size, as I ordered the size I normally would and they fit perfect. Just a touch snug and that will allow a little room for them to stretch. I have looked for years for the perfect jeans and I think I found them!

Thank you so much for your review, Dusty! We're so glad you're enjoying the fit of our Needle Jeans, and thanks for the feedback on the pockets.
