The Hammer Straight - Indigo Raw 14oz Selvedge

Very nice jeans! Just didn’t fit my body type, not enough rear rise, but still 5/5 for quality, fabric and comfort.

I’ve been an avid 501 fan for 30+ years. But as I’ve gotten older I’m realizing that jeans that do not have any stretch in them just don’t work for me anymore. Bought 2 pairs of the indigo raws last week and washed them both once in cold water and line dried. Wore one pair this week and closeted the second pair. I plan to wear the first pair at least 50 times before I break out the second pair. I want the aging process to begin in the first pair before I start on the second pair. I 100% love these jeans. I teach PE to middle school kids and was able to jog around and actively play catch etc with my students while wearing them without any type of movement restrictions…I couldn’t believe it. I will be wearing these jeans for years to come. Looking forwards to seeing how they age too. Thanks for the great product…never thought I’d find Japanese selvedge (made in the US too!) for a price that I could afford. Well done!

Paid through the nose for these jeans expecting to not be fully satisfied - but was pleasantly surprised. Fantastic quality - super texture, great stretch. Even ran these by a jeans snob friend who was on the hunt for selvedge. Everything checks out - great jeans - and I expect to buy more in the future.

I recently purchased 2 pair of the Hammer Straight jeans in Indigo Raw 14oz Selvedge, and find these best worn cuffed with service boots. (I also own 2 pair of the Pen Slim that I like wearing with loafers). I've been wearing jeans my entire life, and I've never owned anything with the outstanding quality and perfect fit of Hiroshi Kato jeans. Worth every penny!

I’ve always wanted to get a pair of Selvedge denim jeans but never managed to find a company I wanted to buy from that seemed to offer the quality I was looking for. I then found Hitoshi Kati and cautiously bought a pair of the indigo Hammer jeans; a straight fit and when they arrived they did not fail on delivering on what I was looking for. First of all, the quality of the denim is great and the construction fantastic, though not sure how the diagonal belt loop at the back will hold up but we’ll see. The fit of the Hammer at a little large, which I think will be perfect after I was them, I’m about a 35/36 and I bough the 38. So again, we’ll see how that pans out. I’ve had them about three weeks so far and they are comfortable and fit well, even being a size over. I expect they’ll be perfect once they’ve been through a few washes and bedded in. I loved them so much I went ahead and bought another pair in the straight fit. They fit really well and I hope they don’t shrink too much because they’re a lovely fit and again the quality is great. They are the stretch fabric so they should be more forgiving.
Great company, high quality products and a fair price for such well made gear. I have taken measurements and will see how much they shrink after a few washes and perhaps report back. So far so good and I’d highly recommend sizing up.
