TOYODA G3 DENIM

WOVEN BY VINTAGE TOYODA SHUTTLE LOOM

THE PINNACLE OF JAPANESE DENIM

EXTREMELY RARE, COVETED 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.

TOYODA (TOYOTA) G3 MACHINE

The denim is woven using the restored vintage TOYODA "G3" type shuttle loom that was originally invented in 1924 by Sakichi Toyoda, the founder of TOYOTA. This world’s first, innovative non-stop automatic shuttle was called the Magical Loom ​back then. FOB Factory restored this "G3" magical shuttle loom especially for making this denim.  ※TOYOTA Motor Co, originally called “TOYODA”, was established as a loom manufacturer. 
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. 

THE DENIM OF HALF A CENTURY AGO

​FOB Factory fully reproduced the 1950’s classic style denim. The aesthetic 14oz selvedge denim is woven by the exact same blend of American and Australian cotton back then. 

​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 feel proper.  All of denim is entirely handcrafted in Kojima, Okayama, Japan.

WOVEN BY JAPAN'S FIRST "MAGICAL" G3 SHUTTLE LOOM

The G-Type Automatic Loom, which Sakichi Toyoda invented and completed in 1924, with 24 automatizations, protection, and safety devices, including the world’s first non-stop automatic shuttle change device, enabled weft supply by smoothly changing shuttles without slowing down at all while operating at high speed, which greatly contributed to the increase in productivity. The G-Type Automatic Loom was lauded as the best in the world in terms of overall performance and economic evaluation and contributed to the advancement in the textile industry of many countries.
