THE PINNACLE OF JAPANESE SELVEDGE DENIM
This super fine 14oz selvedge denim is very raw, unsanforized woven by vintage TOYODA G3 Shuttle Loom. The denim is unique, characteristic, feeling the slub and nep because its warp yarn was woven with very low tension.

G3 machine is Japan's first shuttle loom invented in 1924. Only skilled and experienced artisans can operate this very vintage machine and this special denim can be woven only 5 yards an hour.  Using the exact same blend of American and Australian cotton back then, FOB Factory totally reproduced the 1950’s classic denim style. 

SOLID CONSTRUCTION
The perfect stitching with 100% cotton threads are all done by Union Special Sewing Machine. The original tanned leather patch will age beautifully as well as the denim itself. You absolutely will get them feel proper. 

​Entirely handmade in Okayama, Japan.  ​
