#515 Crosshatch Rainbow ID - Natural

Our partner mill in Japan had a key goal with these raw denim styles - to focus on the vintage crosshatch grain that's one of the hallmarks of old-world selvedge denim. We think they nailed it and these two are stellar raw denim examples even without the special ID. It's all about the grain. Intensely slubby, the grain is on full display in both warp and weft. This gets you the classic crosshatch effect that old-school raw denim often had. The fades you get are also beautifully vintage as there are raised areas across the entire fabric surface to loose dye as you move in these pants and make them your own. 16 ounces and starchy, this is what you think of when you picture raw denim. You have to earn it. And yes, the finishing selvedge ID is icing on the cake - bold and full of color - green-thin yellow-red. This version gets a soft natural color that exhibits cotton fleck throughout.
