WORKERS_Lot 802 Slim Tapered Jeans

Lot 802 has a slightly narrow hem and a tapered silhouette that gives it a modern, clean look.

This denim is made using American Apland cotton both vertically and horizontally.

Simply put, "Basic jeans are denim woven with threads made only from American cotton!" But when we started making them, we found that we couldn't find the standard threads made from 100% American cotton! So we decided to make the threads from scratch! (Although we could make a huge amount of them.) Apland cotton is an extremely basic cotton. We import it to Japan and scan the uneven thread shapes found in vintage jeans to determine the thread shape.

This unevenness is also controlled so that it is not too strong. The finished yarn is rope dyed. It is pure indigo dyed without base dyeing or piece dyeing. The characteristic of this color is that it has relatively little red and a strong blue color.

Weaving at low tension creates a fluffy texture while preserving the inherent character of the thread and the cotton.

The finished fabric is Kibata denim, which is not shrink- proofed or singed to remove fuzz. It is characterized by shrinking and twisting when washed. However, before shipping, it is washed once and dried in a dryer to shrink it as much as possible.

There are two patterns: straight Lot801 and slim tapered Lot802.

The hem width remains the same for about 10 cm from the hem, so the hem width will not change even if you shorten the hem up to a length of about 30 inches.

All sewing is done with cotton thread. Thick thread is used for the side seams, the "komata" where the left and right body parts join together, the yoke, and the obi attachment.

This is done to add strength to the cotton thread, but it also results in the uneven texture of the selvedge and strong puckering in the yoke.

This time, we made the fabric from scratch and made the jeans with the aim of keeping it "basic." Cotton gives off a classic feel, so there are ways to mix cotton other than American cotton, such as from Peru or India.

Even with indigo dyeing, there are ways to create a different color from pure indigo by using a base dye, but I didn't do that and stuck to American cotton and pure indigo. As a result, the finished color has a strong blue color, just as I imagined.

With a clean tapered silhouette, strong blue tones, and an elegant uneven texture, these jeans are easy to match with neat styles, such as an Ivy League style paired with a jacket.

There is plenty of room around the hips, and the hem is narrow, so it is recommended for customers who have volume around the hips and thighs from sports, and are worried that the waist will be loose or that they cannot wear slimmer pants. *The pants are quite slim from the knees down, so please be careful if you have thick calves.
