Seeing is believing. These photos confirm our theory: the Japan Red Fire is one of those denims that sounds incredible in theory and looks even cooler in reality. An indigo warp and brilliant, fiery red weft make this limited run selvedge from Japan stand apart from anything else in your denim collection.
Note: We recommend going up one size in this fabric.
Gustin jeans made from sanforized raw selvedge denim from one of the finest mills in Japan. A cousin fabric to our Japan Shine selvedge, this one makes use of a unique weft to spectacular result. It starts out nicely with a deep navy warp, creating a dark top surface. The weft takes things in a totally new direction. Its fiery red poly yarn is woven into the weft yarn and this changes the entire character of the fabric. Obviously if you cuff this denim you'll see a bright flash of red, but what we enjoy more is how the red weft make its presence knows by showing through the top surface of the fabric. It gives the entire fabric surface a subtle red tint and shadow. If you're ready for indigo denim like no other, act fast as this is a limited run.
Choose either our classic Straight, Slim or Skinny fit. More details available on our fit guide.

Customer Feedback on JAPAN RED FIRE
"Really unique weft as it breaks in. I expected red and it breaks in blue! The blue dye though is rubbing off on all of my shoes... lots of compliments when I put these on!"
-Trevor C. | Verified Buyer
"Definitely, worth the wait. I’m looking forward to breaking them in. I got the 38 straight and they fit great. For others info, I wear 36x36 in Levi’s. I was a little worried because it recommended going a size up. I know 38 straight will be good for other pairs, going forward. It’s my third pair, I have the 1968 and a Rainbow pair. I plan on getting a few more. Highly recommend!"
-Robert D. | Verified Buyer
"Owned 5 Pieces of these 1 Well-Worn 1 Working in Progress 1 For slimmer Waist 2 Storage, in case this fabric gone for another few years."
-Vincent L. | Verified Buyer
"These are gorgeous and other worldly. They have a slight shimmer that makes them look like a very sapphire blue. Very bold and striking, but unique. Highly recommended. May not stretch as much since the (horizontal) red weft is poly and doesn't stretch like cotton. Consider sizing up. I usually get 33 slim from Gustin, but I got these in 33 straight, and they're snug through the thigh after 5 wears, and I think it's quite flattering."

What Customers Are Saying
"I wanted to tell you how much I love the rainbow nep natural t-shirts. After over a year of trying to find my everyday t-shirt, this is finally it. I have four of them now and they are basically all I wear."
-Anne F. | Verified Buyer
"So grateful for this brand! Love the fit, finish, and quality of everything I've ever bought from here. Moreover, the pricing enables people like me to have access to quality goods which are often outside of the reach of the most working people."
-Joshua C. | Verified Buyer
"My 1968s came in the mail yesterday…They're amazing! From the fit (thank you for all the hand-holding!) to the detailing, I'm blown away. Just tremendous quality at any price point, but the value here is off the charts."
-Scott S. | Verified Buyer
