S-012 - 18 oz - slub indigo selvedge denim
white/pink selvage line - from Kuroki, Japan
1 × 50 cm = 50 cm Gesamtlänge
This dark indigo-dyed selvage denim from Japan weighs 18 oz and belongs to the powerful heavyweight qualities. It is manufactured by Kuroki in Okayama on traditional shuttle looms, which are known for their dense and distinctive weave. It is ideal for jeans and jackets that require substance, a striking structure, and a vibrant material appearance.
In its new condition, the fabric appears robust, substantial, and highly textured. The pronounced slub appearance is particularly striking, giving the fabric a noticeable dynamism. With increased wear, the denim becomes softer and adapts comfortably without losing its distinctive presence.
Over time, the fabric develops a particularly vibrant color. The pronounced "waterfall" structures are created by the natural abrasion on the slubs and emphasize the individual fading. This creates a distinctive, dynamic appearance with deep light-dark contrasts.
Despite its high weight, the 18 oz denim can be processed with a powerful household sewing machine. A size 100 jeans needle is recommended; when working with multi-layered flat-felled seams, the speed should be reduced to achieve a clean result.
The last photo exemplarily shows the development of the fabric over a long period of wear – a vibrant, high-contrast fading that particularly impressively highlights the slub structure and the "waterfall" effects.

Please do not wash the denim before processing. As unwashed "raw selvage," the fabric only develops its characteristic structure and fit through wear.
Wash the finished garment only after complete assembly. The respective length and width shrinkage values should therefore be taken into account during pattern making and sizing planning.
