HIROSHI KATO

The Pen Slim Natural Slub Indigo - Lou 12.5oz Selvedge

$278.00

Classic Slub Denim
Kato’s respect for denim reaches back decades. Our years of experience and research resulted in our own version of the sought after denim of the 70s. This fabric has been crafted with meticulous precision to replicate the uniform texture of the faded vintage denim collected for the Kato archives.

To make this a timeless pair of jeans, we chose our straight cut, “The Hammer” and the modern slim cut “The Pen”. The 12.5 ounce, 100% cotton denim does not have stretch but it will break in and mold to you, making it a pair you will want to wear for years. We wanted these jeans to be vintage down to the core details, so we introduced a button fly, using donut style laurel leaf buttons, which have been acid dyed to give them an authentic aged look. We also added a pop of color with a red leather patch, our own twist on the original. We are offering several versions of the Classic Slub Denim that represent different stages of aging.

Lou - Natural Fade
This wash emulates denim that has been worn for several years. Close attention has been payed to the slight distressing of the front and back pocket edges, to reproduce the wear seen on authentic vintage jeans.

These jeans are non stretch and take time to break in.
