Lot.702 Denim Trousers - Raw Indigo

The wide silhouetted selvedge jeans feature T.T’s iconic original denim manufactured in Okayama. The item uses our original 100% American organic cotton denim woven on an old- type power loom in Okayama. The machine used to create this 3/1 left twill, light oz denim is also called a shuttle loom, which can only weave at a speed ten to twenty times slower than a modern loom. The slow-woven denim keeps the natural unevenness of cotton yarn, creating a desirable irregularity in the texture. The warp yarn, dyed with indigo mixed with sulfur dye, carries a definitive green-cast, weathered look. The rope dyeing technique is used to leave the white core. The weft is custom-made nep yarn dyed in yellowed natural color to express the passage of time. By using these two yarns, Taiga Takahashi perfected his unique indigo blue which is deep and rich. The fabric is finished with sanforized process added to prevent shrinkage. The fabric is selvedge denim with a white edge, which is featured in various parts like the reverse side of the belt. In the 1940s, there was a change in the details of denim jackets, such as rugged iron buttons replaced with more decorative snap buttons. We studied the Art Déco buttons and rivets commonly used at that time and replicated them with our original color. The signature leather patch is mud-dyed in Amami Oshima Island.
