If you know your Japanese denim, Big John needs no introduction. These are serious, heavyweight 15.8oz jeans made from organic cotton, rope-dyed in natural indigo. They have that stiff, authentic cardboard feel right out of the box, which is exactly what you want from proper raw selvedge. The fit is a modern slim straight, giving you a clean silhouette without feeling painted on. Because this is unsanforized raw denim, they will shrink by about 6% to 8% after their first wash, shaping themselves uniquely to your body. Every detail is built to last, from the iron donut buttons and copper rivets to the nude cowhide leather patch on the back. Turn up the cuffs to show off the clean indigo selvedge line.
