Description

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.

Using a sulfur dye, we are able to create colored denim that fades just like classic blue jeans. Our lightweight 10.5oz denim 4-Way Stretch Selvedge has all of the qualities of top shelf Japanese selvedge while offering a level of comfort and range of motion not possible in a 100% cotton jean.

• 96% COTTON 4% POLYURETHANE

Copper color with Blue ID pops

I’ve been surprised how much I’m able to wear this color. The Blue Id on the pocket gives it that little extra detail that sets off a great fit. These jeans are so comfy. Nice little starchy exterior but the inside is soft.

Thank you for your review! We're thrilled to hear that you're enjoying the Copper Raw color and the Blue ID detail of The Pen Slim jeans. We agree that they add the perfect touch to any outfit! -Kato Team

I’m really starting to hate this company!

Everytime I tell myself to chill out buying clothes. Hiroshi Kato keeps coming out with the most high quality beautiful items! These pants are gorgeous and feel amazing on the skin. I feel like Hiroshi Kato will be the ruin of me!

Disheartening find: Size 31 is the new Size 30

I bought the newly release Pen Slim 10.5oz Copper Raw and Dark Green Raw last week, the items arrived this past weekend. This is the 4th and 5th pairs of Kato I own. Back in 2021 and 2022, I purchased two pairs of Pen Slim 10.5oz Indigo Raw, and then another pair of Axe Denit Charcoal Grey. Side note - there was no in-house hemming service by Kato at the time, so it's all full length.

The first Pen Slim I bought was Size 30, I picked it up at a local menswear retail store. I have a Size 30 waist but the crotch was too tight for me (not to brag, but I work out 6 days a week, never skip leg day). I then went back to pick up a pair of Size 31 Pen Slim, it was way more comfortable and fit my thigh much better. Because I bought them at the local retail store, I ended up just keeping the Size 30 one and it's been hanging in my closet every since.

It's also noteworthy that I only wear the Jeans in casual hang out occasions very carefully, and have never washed any of the Pen Slim Jeans. Therefore no shrinkage need to be assumed.

Now, back to the new Copper Raw and Dark Green Raw I purchased last week. I purchased the Size 31 for both pairs expecting they will have the same tailoring as the ones I bought two three years ago.

THEY DO NOT.

I didn't a test fit last night and, surprisingly, found out that the waist size was smaller than the previous Size 31 I purchased. The crotch was tighter to a point that it's uncomfortable. I was really confused for a while - I have been 174 +/- 1.5lbs for years and I just wore the old Size 31 jeans 5 days ago.

So I pulled the old Size 31 and compared the new Size 31 with the old Size 31, sure enough, the new Size 31 was 1.75inch shorter than the old Size 31. That's precisely the width of the waistband.

Then I remember, "I have an old Size 30 hanging in the closet". Pulling it out quickly and comparing it, and this happened:

THE NEW SIZE 31 IS EXACTLY THE SAME SIZE AND THE OLD SIZE 30!

Therefore, if a person used to wear Size 30 just fine, he will need a Size 31 now. Hence, "Size 31 is the new Size 30". I find it hard to comprehend, why does a company that "proudly make the best quality Jean in the U.S.A" will silently change the sizing? Especially when there is zero price difference between sizes? I can't even explain it with capitalism because it doesn't change the profit, at least on the surface. It merely produce inconvenience. This is truly head scratching. Hence the 3 star review.

Ending on the positive - the fabric quality is still old Kato. I have requested a exchange one size up to Size 32. I would suggest folks who consider purchasing this jeans to do the same (i.e. buy one size larger than you typically do)

Like khakis, but elevated

Another piece with the quality you’d expect from Kato. Hard to name an occasion where these aren’t a good fit when they’re comfortable enough to fall asleep in!
