Woven just for you - one of our first truly special selvedge denim finds from Japan - The Rainbow Nep. Enjoy this rare selvedge and a special thanks to a loyal customer who sent us some solid wear-in shots.

Gustin jeans are made from sanforized raw selvedge denim from one of the finest mills in Japan. At first glance, this fabric seems like a traditional indigo selvedge with a slightly lighter shade and much brightness. On close inspection, you start to notice something unique. On the top surface, there are tiny specs of color - red, yellow, green, purple. Turning the fabric over, you see the white weft is speckled with a rainbow of colors in tiny spots throughout the fabric. An organic tapestry of color. It's subtle on the blue top surface, but you know it's there. To finish it all off, you get a solid but wearable 12.5 ounce denim with a classic red or blue ID. Subtle artistic craftsmanship applied to vintage raw denim.

Customer Feedback on #52 RAINBOW NEP

"I’m happy with the jeans. The colored nep is more subtle than I thought it would be, but I’m fine with that. I ordered a size 31 slim. The waist was tight for the first 5 wears and it’s starting to loosen up; which is what I’m used to with raw denim. I look forward to seeing how these break in and patina over the years."

-Seth W. | Verified Buyer

"Love em! Perfect fix and cut for my boots! Can’t wait to see what they look like in a few years! 36” waist."

-Mike B. | Verified Buyer

"Light weight denim @ 12.5 Oz. The magic comes after your first wash. The denim becomes stiffer and slightly rougher but still light weight. I went with the Straight cut in a size 34 as I am a size 32. This fabric shrinks about two inches in the waist and one inch to half a inch in all other places. For reference a size 34 came in the mail measuring; Waist: 32" Front Rise: 11.125" Back Rise: 14.50" Thight: 12.25" Knee: 9.875" Leg Open: 8.625" Inseam: 36.50""
