Beautiful, rare denim. The Purple Core Selvedge is a 12.5oz Japanese selvedge denim. The fabric starts looking like classic raw Japanese selvedge denim, but most rope-dyed denim starts with white cotton yarns. These yarns are reactive-dyed bright purple before being rope-dyed in indigo vats. So, with wear, the indigo yarns will chip away to reveal their bright purple cores. Cut, sewn, built in Canada with contrast stitching, a Dark Brown Leather patch, and silver metallic buttons and rivets. The Weird Guy is a standard tapered fit with a medium rise, a comfortable top block, and a taper from knee to hem. Tagged sz. 30 (measurements in photos)
