This is why he only works with shuttle looms from Ibara, Okayama, using only the best cottons from the United States and India. Ever since, Iwaya-San has been obsessed with producing incredible fabrics with unique, slubby textures and a distinct character. Passionate about Denim, he grew up in Okayama and acquired experience working in different mills around the region, until in 1997 he decided to create his own brand. Preserved the color of the original while adding our Tanuki touch to the texture. Made from the special OT fabric, this denim is the other impressive collaboration with ONI again focused on the secret denim. Pure Blue Japan is the dream of Kenichi Iwaya. Tanuki: A tapered fit with a high rise, roomy thighs, and tapered legs. It features a tapered leg from the knee down while providing ample room on the top block and thighs (PBJ 019 cut). This pair features a Relaxed Tapered cut.

The jeans are made with all the superior-quality Pure blue Japan details such as iron buttons, high-quality pocket bags, heavy-duty bar tacks, long stitching, a custom lambskin black leather patch and the signature Pure Blue Japan "shoai" embroidery (Indigofera leaf). It has been low-tension woven on a vintage shuttle loom in Ibara, Okayama. The result is fantastic: 18oz, very slubby and stunning texture. So the brand is bringing it back on steroids. Iwaya-san (the owner of PBJ) wanted a heavier version of their most demanded 14oz denim. In addition, the dark weft helps to produce higher contrast fades.įor this indigo x black creation, the brand developed a 18oz fabric based on their iconic XX denim. But if you wear and wash it more and more, gradually the weft yarn comes out, and the Denim's colour will change to dark blue indigo.
So at first glance, you will feel it is black Denim. PBJ used dark indigo for the warp yarn and black for the weft yarn. As it usually happens with Pure Blue Japan, it has not disappointed. Still, we were all waiting for this new super-fast fader indigo warp x black sulphur dyed fabric. Pure blue Japan had already developed a fascinating fabric with black Sumi and natural indigo in the past. These fabrics appear an inky deep blue-black at first, but with wear, the indigo will fade to bright blue and white, creating high contrast fades with black undertones. This version is a tad heavier and it’s that extra bit of fuzziness at the surface that adds even more complexity and intrigue to the original secret denim.There is no doubt indigo x black fabrics have been a trend for some time in the Japanese Denim scene. This super-secret denim features all the characteristics that made the secret denim one of the most loved fabrics of all time: it is slubby, neppy, vibrant colors. Tanuki: A tapered fit with a high rise, roomy thighs, and tapered legs.
