The Okayama Standard remains on top as our best selling Japanese selvedge denim of all time. Looking at the absolutely beautiful fades you get from it, the reason becomes pretty clear. Get started on yours today.
Gustin jeans made from sanforized raw selvedge denim from one of the finest mills in Japan. When we search for a perfect Japanese selvedge, we look for a few key things: solid weight, dark indigo start and the potential to wear to the perfect medium blue with great texture. We saw everything we like in the Okayama Standard. This style is a very solid 14.5oz, starts out raw in a deep blue indigo and wears to the mythical medium blue we all want. The fade shots tell the story. The color is stunning, the grain amazing. It even has a great vertical grain when worn in. Throw in a very cool double stitch orange selvedge ID and this is a perfect, traditional Japanese denim. Made in the Okayama Prefecture, this one is perfect all around denim.
This is the same style and quality that was sold in boutiques all over the country for $205+.

"Great quality denim here. Initially snug but stuck with them and they have loosened a good inch in the waist for me. These jeans are built to last. Happy customer!"

"These are a lovely pair of jeans! I love the look, feel and texture of this pair of selvedge denim. I'm not sure how well they will hold up, or what the fading process will look like in a year, but I'm very happy with my purchase.
After following the size guide and having my wife measure my waist I was pretty confident that a 34 skinny would be the right size. They ended up being a bit too tight in the top block and calves. In the past I would have settled for this knowing that the jeans would eventually loosen up. However my approach to selvedge denim has changed after months of reading reddit posts and watching youtube videos. After a few returns I finally settled on a 35 skinny which is about 2-3 sizes above what I would wear with other non selvedge brands (Levis, Boulder Denim, etc).
The Gustin CS team have been an absolute pleasure to work with! Eric helped me navigate the return process with ease and I would happily order from Gustin again."

"I am very pleased with the 32 Slim sizing. Out the gate the waist was comfortable with no belt needed. After a week of wear I can feel the waist is relaxing, still don’t need a belt. The denim feels more premium than other designer selvedge I have purchased in the past. Previously I have the Rainbow nep selvedge in 31 slim and after a few washes they have shrunk and they are a little tight front rise and waist. I’m confident that the size 32 will hold up to shrinkage over time and still fit me."

"Beautiful quality! Nice fit that’ll break/grow with time."
"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."
