HISTORY

Denim fabric was created in Nîmes in 1800 (hence its name).

Selvedge is a particular and specific confection of this denim fabric. Its cotton threads are sewn very tightly and the ends are reinforced along the lengths with a white and red edging (hence its name "red-selvedge"). This technique gives it real solidity and resistance.

This manufacturing process originated in the United States but was abandoned after the Second World War, due to strong demand from the textile industry. Traditional looms were abandoned and made way for faster, automated machines.

Today there are not many manufacturers of this selvedge denim fabric. Most of them are in Japan because they mainly bought the old looms from the Americans.

QUALITY

These denim jeans have 5 pockets. Its straight cut is timeless and gives it real comfort. We added details specific to our house such as the unique prints on the inside of the pockets or the embroidery of our Ocean Surplus logo on the corner of the 5th pocket.

Also, it is a real Japanese denim fabric, 100% cotton, which has been washed to obtain this lighter shade than raw denim jeans for example.

The lower leg measures 17 cm.

The jeans were assembled in Portugal.

 

Its selvedge edging is red. This fabric is unique, it lives and shapes itself with and according to you. The denim adapts to your own body shape to become like a second skin. It is a fabric that will mold itself to your body over time.

Also, its already stone indigo color will experience different shades over the years. It will fade more as it is worn and washed to reveal authentic tones.

STYLE

It’s a denim fabric with character. It will reveal its many indigo shades over time. It is a garment that lives, evolves and changes.
