Levi’s Jumps into Selvedge Denim with “Made in Japan” Col.

Levi’s continues to impress with its latest offering, the “Made in Japan” line, showcasing classic denim pieces crafted from selvedge denim sourced through the renowned Hiroshima’s Kaihara mill. This exceptional collection features three iconic Levi’s shapes: the timeless Levi’s 501, the comfortable 505, and the sleek 511, all crafted from the signature selvedge denim. The washes range from light to dark indigo, ensuring there’s something for every denim enthusiast.

The standout pieces in the collection include a matching jacket and pants, both adorned with all-over denim panels arranged in a striking arrow-shaped pattern. Each design is elegantly finished with a backpatch proudly stating “Made in Japan” and an interior tab featuring the Japanese flag, celebrating the collection’s origin.

Hailing from the birthplace of selvedge denim, the Kaihara denim mill, this line is a true testament to Levi’s commitment to quality craftsmanship. Selvedge denim is known for its superior quality, achieved through tightly-woven bands sealing the garment’s construction ends. The slow-weaving finish achieved by antiquated machines, like those in Kaihara, adds an extra level of precision that is revered in Japan.

The Levi’s “Made in Japan” collection is set to launch on Friday, August 4, available through the brand’s webstore, Levi’s stores, and select retailers. Denim enthusiasts and fashion aficionados alike can look forward to experiencing the excellence of Kaihara mill’s selvedge denim craftsmanship in this captivating range.
