100% Cotton
This denim was the first find that came from our global search for selvedge. We had a feeling it would make for a stunning pair of denim. Based on the response it has received it seems we're all in agreement. The Rainbow Selvedge. 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. 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 a starting point as you can find. Starchy and rugged, the 12 ounce weight is a middle ground we've come to respect for its balance of usability and toughness. The weft is where things take a bold and colorful turn. A range of colored yarns is deployed to create a vivid rainbow effect on the backside of the fabric. The colors change slightly with each batch. 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.

"The most delicious denim I've experienced."
-Michael P. | 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."
-Nicolai S. | Verified Buyer
"Very pleased with the fit and look. I got the 38 straight. I wear 36x36 in Levi’s, if that helps anyone. Looking forward to getting the Japan Red Fire in January"
-Robert D. | Verified Buyer
"Very very lovely jeans. First expensive pair of raw denim. Such a cool model and I'm excited to see how they fade!
My only complaint is i wish a different cut with a higher rise would have been available at purchase. I really like the wrangler cowboy cuts and like how they fit. I have been informed that a model does have a higher rise available (i think it's the 1968 vintage model) and I wish a similar cut was available for this model."
