Description
4-Way Stretch Selvedge Air was born from the love of old vintage denim and the need for comfort. This denim has the look and feel of a 15oz denim, but is a very comfortable 11.5oz.
Instead of using the usual 3 X 1 weave of standard denim, we implemented a 5 x 1 weave. This creates a denim that is lighter but with the same durability. The low-tension yarns and loose weave contribute to the thicker look of the denim while maintaining its light feel. The overall result is a vintage textured denim that looks heavyweight but feels light as air.
The fades replicate a jacket that was heavily worn for years and rarely washed. This would give the fades a higher contrast between the darker indigo and the faded areas of high surface contact.
