In our latest team-up with Samurai Jeans, we have created a double indigo 15oz. denim that hits hues like nothing we’ve done yet since our inception 14 years ago. The nature of the composition of rope-dyed indigo warp & weft in this latest collaboration is unique in that the depth of indigo is not quite as dark as most conventional rope-dyed Selvedge denim we come across, thus giving a slightly lighter overall blue hue to the fabric. With both warp and weft dyed in rope-dyed indigo (or “double indigo”), we can guarantee without even running a fade sample that these are going to yield some seriously high contrast fades. As with all Samurai denim, the fabric is dense and resilient, and given the fact that it is Raw & Unsanforized in nature, these will wear well after the initial soak. 

The ODSJ011 is loosely based on Samurai's inline S3100VX or "Relax Straight" silhouette. This is a relatively freshly developed cut which features a relaxed top blog, wide leg and generously lengthy inseam. Familiar elements of our previous OD+SJ collaborations are all part of the equation this time around, including adding our original “OD” Brass button to the assorted button fly, as well as a black coated OD Original “+” rivet proudly affixed onto the wearer’s right pocket. Two additions we saved for the wearer this time around can be found inside the jeans themselves. For the pocket bags, we had enough leftover ODSJ009 "Koten" Heavyweight Flannel fabric which we had reserved exclusively for this project. Hidden away in the back pockets, we have lined this area with Samurai's popular "Shuriken" Wabash print fabric.

**Please note that this is an unsanforized pair of denim, and will shrink up to 10% with the first soak, and will then stretch out with wear.
