ONI-246-Ishikawadai 15oz Ishikawa-dai Denim Neat Straight-One Wash-33
Back in 1953, a true piece of history came to life – the Ishikawa-dai spinning machine. This marvel holds the title of being the oldest operational spinning machine in Japan, a real rarity. While it doesn't boast the lightning speed of modern spinners, its slower pace imparts a special touch to the cotton, resulting in a natural texture akin to hand spinning. Production efficiency might not be its strong suit, but it sure treats that cotton gently.
Now, let's talk denim. Crafted from 6-count yarn spun on the venerable Ishikawa-dai and woven using a shuttle straight out of the 1950s, this denim holds a weight of around 15 ounces. But here's where it gets truly exceptional – the fabric dances with an irregular, waving texture that's entirely unique. The indigo hue takes on a greenish-cast, similar to the renowned "Oni Secret Denim," and when paired with the fabric's quality, it's a nostalgic nod to dead stock denim of the past.
Picture a sharp look that generously accommodates the hips to legs for a comfortable, stress-free feel. This versatile silhouette effortlessly complements rugged and jacket style alike, adapting to your preference.
Now, let's break down the details that make this denim a standout:
- 15oz Ishikawa-dai denim made of 100% cotton
- Pre-washed
- Classic selvedge ID in White × Pink
- Customized original donut button and punched rivet
- Horse hide leather patch
- Made in Japan
