Purchased at United Arrows a few years ago, worn only once, and then stored at home. These jeans were made with attention to detail and specifications found in vintage denim, and I was repeatedly asked "Where did you get those jeans?" at apparel shops and hair salons. These are rare, discontinued jeans, so please consider them if you have the chance. ■Size: 32 Waist: Approx. 88cm Rise: Approx. 29cm Inseam: Approx. 78cm ■MADE IN JAPAN Denim Pants ■DETAILS■ Inspired by specifications seen in the 1950s, such as those from the "Great War" model. The crotch seam is a single stitch folded to one side to visually minimize its appearance, another detail taken from vintage jeans. The hip pocket reinforcement is a hidden bar tack. This detail is often applied when using hidden rivets, but here it's used as a design element to create a vintage-like appearance when worn and to avoid overemphasizing the pockets. The front fly extension is set wide, like that of slacks, providing a secure and comfortable fit. The rivets and other accessories are unified in gold, with matching stitching. ■FABRIC■ Uses fabric specially ordered by BEAUTY&YOUTH from Kaihara, one of Japan's leading denim manufacturers. The fabric has a rich, textured feel with unevenness, created on a shuttle loom, retaining its fullness and hand. The indigo color is complemented by the muted tone of brown cotton, creating a unique hue. Brown cotton is used for the warp threads, dyed 100% indigo to express the natural reddish indigo color of denim. Because the brown cotton is dyed, the color will deepen as it fades with wear, resulting in a natural and profound color and texture. ■SILHOUETTE■ Inspired by 1970s jeans with a deep rise and a well-fitting tapered silhouette from the hip to the hem. The hips are made compact, and adjustments are made to create a moderate looseness. The knee position is also set slightly higher for a smart impression.
