Celebrating the 10th iteration of the Made in Japan (MIJ) collection, Naked & Famous Denim brings back a fan favorite: the iconic Okayama Spirit Selvedge. First released in 2013, the Okayama Spirit is renowned for its unique textured look and the intricate craftsmanship that defines Japanese selvedge denim.
Key Features:
- Material: Made from 16oz unsanforized slubby Japanese selvedge denim, crafted from 100% cotton. This denim is dyed using the indigo rope dyeing process, which creates a unique pattern due to the uneven absorption of indigo in the yarns, enhancing its slubby texture.
- Fabrication: The denim is slowly woven on vintage shuttle looms, resulting in a distinctive wavy weave pattern and organic, uneven grain that highlights the Okayama Spirit’s iconic look.
- Treatment: Rinse-washed and Tempi-treated to preserve the fabric’s raw texture, grittiness, and hairiness while ensuring proper shrinkage, allowing you to achieve the correct fit without the guesswork.
- Finishing Touches: Features 100% iron buttons that will rust over time, copper rivets that will oxidize, and raised belt loops that will fade, adding to the jeans’ unique character. A Japanese sheepskin leather patch with the “Flower of Carnage” logo, selvedge button fly, and a micro busted outseam complete the premium detailing. The maple leaf embroidered on the back pocket is a signature of the MIJ series.
- Fit: The True Guy fit offers a straight leg with a medium rise, providing extra room in the seat and thigh that falls straight from knee to hem, making it comfortable and versatile for various body types.
- Craftsmanship: Entirely made in Japan, from the dyeing and weaving of the fabric to the final stitching, each pair reflects the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail that Naked & Famous Denim is known for.
The MIJ10 Okayama Spirit Selvedge Jeans combine traditional Japanese denim craftsmanship with modern fit and finishing details, making them a standout piece for denim enthusiasts and collectors alike. The high-quality materials and expert construction ensure that each pair not only looks great but also tells a story through the unique aging process as they are worn over time.
