These are serious jeans for anyone who appreciates proper Japanese denim history. Big John has been doing this since 1940, and this pair shows off that heritage with a heavy, raw-feeling dark indigo denim that will crease and fade uniquely to your body. The details are where things get interesting. You get subtle green bar tacks and matching green buttonhole stitching that pop against the deep indigo, plus the signature Midori Mimi green line selvedge ID when you cuff them. A special duck heritage patch on the back waist anchors the whole look. Cut with a classic straight leg and a comfortable mid-rise, they feel stiff at first but soften up into the best-fitting trousers you will own. Throw them on with a heavy loopwheel tee and clean trainers for an easy, everyday uniform.
