If you missed the first run of this specialty selvedge, today you have another shot. We're getting a small lot woven just for us. Enjoy it and wear it well.
Finding great fabric that you likely will never see anywhere else is one of the most unique parts of GUSTIN. This was our first new find that come from our global search for selvedge. A specialty denim mill in China has deftly combined classic, quality raw selvedge roots with an absolute explosion of color. The classic roots start in the warp. A dark midnight indigo. It's as deep as starting point as you find and a great starting color. Starchy and rugged, the 12 ounce weight is a middle ground we've come to respect for it's balance of usability and toughness. The weft is where things take bold and colorful turn. A range of colored yarns are deployed to create a vivid rainbow effect on the backside of the fabric. The pictures tell the full glorious story. You definitely see the rainbow glowing through the top as well, but it's not overpowering. The balance is just right - special but not screamingly loud. Finding this in a 100% cotton, selvedge composition makes it even more special. Enjoy this one.

"Felt like a glove and simply gorgeous."
-Joseph L. | Verified Buyer
"Wow, ordered a bit bigger with straight leg and it is like having ridiculously overbuilt sweatpants - like if Range Rover built the Honda Civic - love the color feel and comfort of these jeans - can’t wait for the dye to age and the rainbow to come through!"
-Chi T. | Verified Buyer
"1st selvage and I took a risk on the rainbow being too flashy, but it really isn't. Looks mostly like a normal jean unless you point it out to someone because you can see the colors up close. Very well made, and I was impressed by the seams. I would not tolerate anything skinnier and they barely fit over my boots.
If I could change anything it would be, at least one more belt loop if not two. And I would like a bootcut offering. Probably will buy another pair less flashy."
-Benjamin C. | Verified Buyer
"I love this pair of jeans! They exceeded my already lofty expectations. The rainbow colored thread is shows through the darkest blue exterior just enough to make the pants look as though they are moving very subtly underneath. The rainbow selvedge on the rolled cuff stands out in nice contrast with the exterior, & has the extra advantage of showing queer pride. The pair I bought was sized 35 slim, & it's just a little too big in the waist. I usually take a size 34, but sized up per your recommendations."
