Schaeffer’s Garment Hotel specialise in small-batch, LA-made selvedge denim jeans and jackets. Starting life as a Hollywood sewing house, they create ground-up custom fits with a subtle, rock n’ roll inflection. There’s a real artisanal charm to their jeans; even the sizing and production date are scribbled by hand on the inside of the pocket bag.
This slubby 18oz Nihon Menpu selvedge is remarkably easy-going for a heavyweight denim. Sturdy at first but very quick to soften up. This special “Paloma” variant used an in-house-developed black coating over the rope-dyed indigo selvedge. It’s an extra step that delivers a deep, ink-black top layer. Over time, that layer will wear away to unlock new levels of colour and depth. From black, to indigo, with the natural white core of the rope dyed yarns eventually peeking through.
Schaeffer’s 103 fit falls squarely into slim straight territory. It gives you a nice high-rise with a slim but not restrictive fit through the entire leg. Very flattering, and very easy to wear with your favourite boots. Finished with acid-worn pewter black hardware and an aged, cowhide rear patch.
Please note: While these jeans are sanforized, we recommend a cold wash to minimize any additional shrinkage. A regular-to-warm wash will result in around 0.25” of shrinkage in the thigh and 1” at the inseam.
Carlo wears a size 31 jean. He is 185cm tall and weighs 78kg / 6ft 1" and 172 lbs.
