HIROSHI KATO

The Pen Slim - Rilo 10.5oz Selvedge

$248.00

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.

• Slim fit

• Black Washed 10.5 oz

• 96% COTTON/4% POLYURETHANE

• 4-Way stretch selvedge denim

• Model is 6' and wearing a size 32.

Great fit and feel and wash

This is my go-to pant. They feel very soft yet somehow rugged as well. The wash is just right - enough to look lived in, but not so much to look fake [even though a wash is really is faux wear]. My one complaint is the length and the images in the description. I'm 6'1" and wear a 33. The model is stated at 6'2" and wearing a 32. And yet, in the image he's got his pants cuffed. At 34" inseam [the only length offered], my pants barely hit my shoes. A cuff that wide would show most of my socks. I wish Kato had the option of a longer inseam, cuz I like the cuffed look, but on these pants that's a no-go.

We're glad to hear that you like the fit and feel of the Pen Slim - Rilo, Keith! We always aim to produce pants that are comfortable and stylish. We're sorry that you didn't enjoy the length of the pants. We appreciate your feedback and we'll definitely take it into consideration.

Most comfortable/highest quality

I love jeans, always have. I’m a bit of a snob when it comes to quality and look. So when I wanted to complete my collection with a light wash and a black wash, with selvage, I stumbled onto Kato. Not knowing what to expect I bought my regular size and a size up, settling on my true size as they’re were INCREDIBLY comfortable. There is slight stretch in the fabric, which makes them move easier, but the solid weight of the denim hides that “stretch” look. They are by far my favorite jeans. The company stands by their brand too as they helped me with some shipping issues due to another company. Great all around, and highly recommend!

Thank you Brian for your review!

We're glad our selvedge worked out perfectly for you and appreciating the 4-Way Stretch attributes.

We appreciate you!
