Pure Blue Japan’s 1172 puts a white twist on their flagship, 14oz “XX” selvedge denim. The combination of an ecru warp and a beige weft creates a fabric with subtle, off-white dusty tones. This is dialled in further with the addition of copper-accented stitching and 'Shoai' leaf embroidery. It’s a beautiful denim, woven at purposefully low tensions on vintage shuttle looms to achieve added texture and depth. In terms of fit, the "019" is Pure Blue Japan’s Relaxed Tapered fit—expect a mid-to-high rise, a roomy thigh, and a strong taper to a narrow leg opening.
