Japan has created a truly unique selvedge experience by combining a series of seemingly contrasting construction elements. The result is special. It's one for the selvedge connoisseur who appreciates devotion to craft. The Japan 5x1 Loose Selvedge. As a side note, of the hundreds of selvedge styles I'm lucky enough to look and share with you, I'm adding this one to my collection.
Most of us don't think about the construction of the yarn, the weave of a twill, or the tension of a loom. Japan is a master of considering exactly these details and applying them creatively to build vintage raw selvedge as no other country can. Our latest example is here. It starts with the weave of the denim - a 5x1. Most mid to heavy selvedge uses a 3x1 construction. Lighter weight may even use a 2x1. This style pairs 5 warp yarns for each single weft. The result is a super wide, flat, indigo surface. You see small pinpricks of the white weft pocking through. It appears as though it should be a monster weight style, but in the first contrast we find, this one is a wearable 12 ounces. Next comes the application of low tension during the weaving process. The result is a loose, flowing hand, but in another contrast, a proper dose of starch lends a bit of crispness. The entire package is both great to look at and even better to wear. A monster look, but easy to love. A flowing feel, with the starch to remind you of the vintage roots. Of course, a classic red ID finishes it off.

Customer Feedback on #581 JAPAN 5X1 LOOSE SELVEDGE
"Love these jeans. They're surprisingly soft and flowy despite a rugged build. They really softened up after a first wash, and fit extremely well after wearing them 5 or so times. The dark indigo color is wonderful and fits well with basically any outfit. I basically want to wear them every day."
-Zac P. | Verified Buyer
"Great denim. Somehow I did not get the length right even from following measurement instructions. This may have something to do with the cuff. I will need to get these taken up. They are made very well and comfortable. Despite this I would order again as love the system."
-Kirsten H. | Verified Buyer
"I wasn't ready for how weird and great these would be. They look and feel unlike anything I've worn. They're pillowy but substantial. I've only worn them a couple times, but they were pretty comfortable on the first wear and I have the feeling they'll break in great."
-Peter T. | Verified Buyer

"Thank you so much for taking the time to make sure that the pant fits me right. Can't thank you enough. This is what makes Gustin stand a part."
-Lauren C. | Verified Buyer
"About a year ago, a coworker introduced me to Gustin (he rocks some of your pants to the office on the regular) and I have been watching the releases ever since. About three months ago, I finally backed a campaign. Since then, I have been so happy with all the pieces I have received."
