The best of Japanese denim: Jeans Nudie Jeans Steady Eddie II Dry Black Selvage, a must-have in your wardrobe. Check it out now!
Regular fit jeans with a tapered leg made from our all-time favourite Japanese dry black selvage denim. This 14.5 oz denim features a tight weave and a generous application of starch, ensuring remarkable stiffness. But what truly sets it apart is its exceptional aging property, a testament to the blend of heritage and innovative craftsmanship from Kurabo Mills.
This denim stands out due to its unique construction: the warp, primarily visible on one side of the fabric, is dyed black, allowing it to gradually fade with wear and washing. In contrast, the weft, mainly visible on the back of the fabric, is dyed with a 'stay black' dye, keeping its deep black shade without fading. While this may seem unconventional for a fading denim, it creates interesting contrasts, highlighting the warp-weft intersections. This clever construction promises more pronounced contrasting fades than traditional dry black denim.
Beyond its unique blend of threads, the tight weave of the denim, its rigid texture, pronounced twill lines, and slightly rough threads create an exquisite surface structure and marbling effects with wear and washing.
For optimal results, we recommend wearing our dry denim regularly for at least six months before the first wash. While this is entirely optional, this period encourages striking fades.
