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
"This is the third pair of your jeans I have and these are the favorites. The red sheen is awesome and has sparked several comments on the first time out wearing them."
-Stephen E. | Verified Buyer
"I like the fabric a lot. Important to note when ordering a Gustin: their sizing is NOT like other manufacturers -- I had to go up TWO waist sizes to eventually get a pair that fit. I'm a 29 in all other jeans; needed a 31 for Gustin."
-David K. | Verified Buyer
"Measured myself as instructed, but missed the "order one size up" instruction as these have a red poly weft thread and I should have ordered a slim 35" waist. They were snug out of the package (kudos on minimal packaging), and tight after washing and letting hang dry. Washed them twice now, but pulled them from the dryer after 10 minutes and wore them damp. They've stretched perfectly, and I love the fit and unique color. So now I've ordered three more pairs of jeans from stock, and will be ordering more on campaign."
-Leslie F. | Verified Buyer
"The straight cut was a little tighter than I would usually wear, but the fabric and look are exquisite. I can't wait to see the fades on these"
-James M. | Verified Buyer

What Customers Are Saying
"I really love Gustin. I just don't think I'd choose another brand at any price point. And I love watching for new products/return of old favs. But a very important part of the experience is the great customer service."
-Keith P. | Verified Buyer
"They arrived. And they are really special. I wore them all day yesterday and they were amazing. Now that I know how your stuff fits on my body, I can have a little more confidence ordering in the future. You have beautiful stuff."
-Timothy H | 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."
-Anne F. | Verified Buyer
