Cut and sewn in California
Thick rope-like strands are woven into a big weight and even bigger texture fabric that pays homage to a historically significant sewing technique. We offer it at our best value for a style like this. The Indigo Monster Sashiko 5 Pocket.
Note: We recommend going up one size in this fabric.
The inspiration for this style is the traditional Sashiko sewing technique. Used as a functional sewing technique for repairs and decorative effects, Sashiko is respected for its handmade style, prominent stitching and patterning effects. This style uses a Dobby weave to recreate the prominent stitch and geometric lines and then dials up the texture to absolutely beautiful levels. Imagine the plushest cotton rope interlaced together to create a hand woven look, huge texture and flowing feel. That's what we have here. Even better is the rugged 12 ounce weight, giving this style true vintage appeal. This beautiful indigo fabric starts out a dark inky blue and ages beautifully like a pair of raw denim. Pants can be darker in person. Dye bleed is expected with this piece.

"Beautiful understated fabric that's as dressy as the rest of your outfit.
The texture patterning is not as showy as the pictures, especially at night, so are perfect for adding a bit of extra to whatever you're wearing. You feel the texture when wearing, but material is soft, so it's an overall dressed down feeling.
About the same level of stretch as normal denim, but not as dense, so much faster break in (first wear) and overweight folks like myself may want to size up so they lay evenly, especially the button fly.
The stretch level also means that i didn't have to get the pants hemmed or cuffed, as the but if extra material breaks just shows off the texture even more.
Does attract a bit more dust, but easily brushed off.
Overall a very solid addition to the rotation."

"Gorgeous pants. I messed up the original order by using the size I've worn my whole life (32 corrected to a 36*), so definitely double check the size before finalizing anything. I've ordered three more different pairs since then so definitely worth it."

"This is, to date, the best fitting pair of jeans I’ve ordered from Gustin. One difference is that the legs on the Slim cut that I always order is “slightly” narrower in the leg, mainly at the bottom. I compared to others in the exact same size and cut and when laid one on top of the other, this New pair is approx 1/2 inch narrower, or a full inch in the complete circumference of the opening at the bottom. I’m sure this doesn’t sound like much, but the difference is noticeable, and for me preferred. It doesn’t take away from my satisfaction with the other pairs I’ve ordered, but it is a small difference that I like."

"Best fabric ever. Love the texture. Substantial weight but not too heavy. I find the color slightly hard to 'pair' things with (it says 'indigo,' but it's got a more purplish hue than indigo denim), but it's worth it. Probably my favorite pair of pants right now."
