Our most popular selvedge, the Okayama Standard treated to our authentic workshirt style and tonal thread. This is a vision of pure, masterfully crafted, big character indigo selvedge paired with the ideal style to showcase the fabric. Start on yours now.
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 and over the years, you demonstrated this selvedge denim's true potential. 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 we've gathered over the years tell that story. The color is stunning, the grain is 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. Woven in the Okayama Prefecture and intricately crafted into a workshirt right in the USA. This is the one to own and wear hard for years. 
There are a number of construction details that define our workshirt. The first is ample triple needlework with a classic chain stitch runoff. Triple needle is a specialized stitch not found on standard button downs and that serves as the heart of any good work shirt. Ours gets triple need flat felled yoke and side seams with chain stitched bottoms. We also allow the side seam chain stitch to “run off” the end giving you three chain stitch ends on each side. We bar tack to ensure the runoff can’t compromise the security of the side seam. The second detail is double chest pockets. We keep ours a bit cleaner, without flaps, but use button closures and double bar tacks in each corner for added strength. The left chest pocket gets the addition of a small pen slot. The third detail is the side hem gussets. It’s a small functional element and looks absolutely great. On our selvedge styles, we incorporate the selvedge on the bottom. Finally, we love the chin strap. Ours is small enough to be tasteful while still reminding you of the workwear roots of the garment. We created new custom Corozo buttons specifically for our work shirts. They’re a deep navy shade with a slightly domed top and two holes for securing. Overall, this is one of our most intricately constructed garments and one of the most costly to produce.
Our workshirts will be available in our Classic and Slim fits. The main differences in details between our workshirts and our other shirting come down to construction - no back box pleat, and differently shaped side scoops. The Slim fit has a more tailored body as compared to our Classic fit. Chest and waist come in to provide a more fitted option. Details are in our fit guide now.

Customer Feedback on #75 OKAYAMA STANDARD WORKSHIRT - TONAL THREAD
"Another incredibly well made Gustin product. It's a little snug out of the package, but that's probably me with a few extra winter pounds. The construction of this shirt is about as good as it gets. The sleeves run about an inch and half longer than most shirts I have in XL, but I typically roll them up so no biggie. Something to be aware of, however. All in all I am super glad I bought this. Years of wear ahead of it."
