Heavyweight Denim (17/23oz)

Heavyweight denim is the frontier of Japanese raw denim. Stiff from purchase, hard to fold, it breaks in slowly and develops extreme fading and sharp contrasts that lighter fabrics simply cannot replicate.

Wearing heavyweight jeans requires patience: the first weeks are demanding in the most literal sense. But after the break-in period, the fabric begins to yield in the right places — waist, knees, thighs — building deep and personal whiskers and honeycombs that can never be artificially reproduced.

It's not the right starting point for those new to raw denim. It's the choice of those who already know the world of Japanese selvedge denim and want to push the intensity of the experience. A long-term investment — in a fabric, in a process, in a result. You'll find a sizing guide on each product page.
