KING OF LORDS 23oz Selvedge Denim
Snow came early this year! Well, we thought they outdid themselves with the Lord of Nep. Then, we thought...there's no way they can beat the King of Slub. Well my friends, we were wrong. They've gone ahead and combined the two for what can only be described as a manufacturing feat of genius. This is now the slubbiest and neppiest denim on the planet. Nothing comes close. It's also the softest 23oz denim we've ever felt. They seriously feel like heavyweight pair of pants with the nep acting like the soft loops of terry cloth. We got these on and didn't want to take them off. The photoshoot was so much fun and it has us contemplating if we need to add this to the archives for milestone's sake.
The King of Lords Selvedge is a 23oz Japanese selvedge denim merging the King of Slub and Lord of Nep to create the slubbiest and neppiest denim ever achieved. The denim is created by combining the extremely irregular shaped and bumpy King of Slub yarn on the exterior warp, and the super textured and knotted Lord of Nep yarns on the interior weft. Woven on vintage shuttle looms at a low tension to further intensify the texture. Over time with wear, as the indigo starts to fade, a wide gradient of indigo becomes visible, and the extreme thickness of the yarn allows for a three-dimensional textured fade opposite the white cotton neppy flecks. The jeans have been pre-washed to remove shrink from the fabric as the denim was too neppy to go through traditional fabric finishing processes. Other details include contrast stitching, buffalo leather patch, red selvedge ID, and silver metallic buttons and rivets.
