100% Cotton
We were not sure an olive green could look this good. We officially stand corrected. This is true Japanese selvedge denim taken in a color direction none of us could have imagined. Clearly, it works and it works well.
Color is transformative. In the case of this rare denim, it's all about olive. An olive warp crossed with an even darker olive weft. It creates a look like no other pair of denim. To us, it feels like a military inspired trouser. The surface is intensely colored and rich. The feel is all raw denim -- starched, crisp, and rugged. The combination is really the best of both worlds: color providing a refreshing alternative to traditional indigo selvedge, while the denim fit and feel give us what we know and love.

Customer Feedback on #159 JAPAN OLIVE
"Got the straight cut 38. Have tried the slim. Too slim for me. These shrank a bit in the wash (deliberate - shrink before hemming). But the fit is good. The material is substantial and stiff. Havent had much opportunity to wear them, as it is summer"
-Najib H. | Verified Buyer
"I love the richness of the olive green color in these jeans. You can also easily tell the quality of the denim in its weight and feel. Definitely make sure you order the right size - use the size guidelines to help, and better to size up. Also, note that the length is quite long, so you'll need to roll them up or tailor them."
-Zach E. | Verified Buyer
"Pants look and feel great. Great fit, and will only get better over time. My only qualm is the lack of ability to specify inseam length."
-Aman I. | Verified Buyer
"Feels great, fits great!"
-Matt M. | Verified Buyer

What Customers Are Saying
"Never thought I would find a denim company that I feel like is a community."
-Richard S. | Verified Buyer
"My 1968s came in the mail yesterday…They're amazing! From the fit (thank you for all the hand-holding!) to the detailing, I'm blown away. Just tremendous quality at any price point, but the value here is off the charts."
-Scott S. | Verified Buyer
"So grateful for this brand! Love the fit, finish, and quality of everything I've ever bought from here. Moreover, the pricing enables people like me to have access to quality goods which are often outside of the reach of the most working people."
-Joshua C. | Verified Buyer
