Studio D’Artisan’s SD-1009 GL3 Selvedge Jeans take their name from the historic loom that weaves them. The Toyoda GL3 is the younger sibling of the legendary G3 shuttle loom — a groundbreaking machine still prized today by a handful of diehard Japanese makers.
Expertly fine-tuned, the GL3 produces a lower-tension weave, giving every criss-cross of warp and weft extra texture and depth — a richness no modern machine can match. Studio D’Artisan amps it up further with No.7 super-slub yarn, creating denim with real presence and soul. At 15oz, it’s a substantial selvedge that still remains an easy all-year-rounder. The fabric is immediately striking: rich in woven character and backed by Studio D’Artisan’s hard-earned reputation for craftsmanship.
The SD-1009 comes in a brand-new high tapered fit. Expect a high rise, a relatively roomy thigh, and a sharp taper from knee to leg opening. The denim is unsanforized but one-washed, so you can expect little to no shrinkage with a cold soak or wash and air dry.

Important: The best way to determine the size you need is to measure a similar item you already own and compare with the actual sizing as per the table below. Do not go by tagsize alone. These jeans are unsanforized but have been one washed.
