shadow weave pattern disguises urban wear marks

The 18oz AI Sakura Selvedge Jeans are a celebration of Japanese tradition, combining natural dye techniques with exceptional denim craftsmanship. The weft threads are dyed a delicate light pink using dye extracted from boiled cherry blossoms, while the warp threads are rope-dyed with a mix of natural and synthetic indigo. This unique combination produces a rich indigo tone with the blue depth of natural dye, yet allows the denim to fade beautifully like classic selvedge. Blended with homegrown organic cotton, the fabric has a distinctive texture and superior moisture absorption, embodying both heritage and innovation.

Cut in a regular straight fit with a mid-rise, the silhouette is slightly narrower than the classic S0510XXII, sitting somewhere between that and the S710XX19ozII. At 18oz, this denim is substantial yet wearable, offering durability and character that will evolve with wear. Details include printed pocket linings, iron-made silver-covered sakura buttons, silver-covered rivets, and a sheep leather patch all reinforcing the jeans deep ties to Japanese craftsmanship and the symbolic beauty of the cherry blossom. With a 36-inch inseam, these jeans are designed for cuffing or tailoring to preference.
