Pure Blue Japan WSB-013 "Double Slub" 16oz Slim Tapered Jeans

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the Pure Blue Japan Double Slub jeans boast a fabric that transcends ordinary denim. The Double Slub, one of the brand's most exceptional creations, is a testament to authentic Japanese craftsmanship. Woven at low tension on vintage shuttle looms, this fabric is a masterpiece of textile artistry.

Through a careful selection of slub yarns, the Double Slub achieves levels of texture that are truly unparalleled. The unique texture not only captures attention on the loom but comes to life upon the first contact with water. The fabric's intricate details are accentuated, promising a fade that is as distinctive as it is individualistic.

This masterpiece offers a perfect marriage of a medium-weight feel and a heavyweight appearance, providing a unique sensory experience for denim enthusiasts. The production is highly exclusive, with Pure Blue Japan only able to weave this extraordinary fabric in small batches, ensuring each pair is a rare gem.

The jeans are adorned with superior-quality Pure Blue Japan details, including iron buttons, high-quality pocket bags, heavy-duty bar tacks, and long stitching. A custom lambskin natural leather patch adds a touch of luxury, while the signature Pure Blue Japan "shoai" embroidery, depicting the Indigofera leaf, further exemplifies the brand's commitment to excellence.

This particular pair features the PBJ 013 cut, characterized by its slim fit, tapered legs, and a flattering mid-rise. As many other PBJ Jeans, the WSB-013 runs slightly small in the one wash version. In general, we recommend choosing one size larger than your usual. However, as always, we recommend checking the size chart first to find your perfect size. It is unsanforized but one washed, so there will be no shrinkage.

Pure Blue Japan is the dream of Kenichi Iwaya. Passionate about denim, he grew up in Okayama and acquired experience working in different mills around the region, until in 1997 he decided to create his own brand. Ever since, Iwaya-San has been obsessed with producing incredible fabrics with unique, slubby textures and a distinct character. This is why he only works with shuttle looms from Ibara, Okayama, using only the best cottons from the United States and India. Since its emergence until today, Pure Blue Japan has consolidated its position as one of the touchstone labels in Japanese Denim, and its excellent work has established it as one of the masters of indigo dye.
