A cousin fabric to the Organic Persimmon Dye, this version represents a first for us and we couldn't be happier with the result. This is the Japan Organic Charcoal Dye. It's a stunningly rich fabric that's the result of classic technique and absolutely exclusive ingredients. The level of artistry in this fabric is what keeps Japan at the top of the selvedge denim world. 
Color is the biggest star of this show. It's a true demonstration of how special technique yields unmatched results. The base color is a wonderfully dark titanium grey that stands out from any other grey/black selvedge we've seen. Such a stunning color is achieved through dyes that use charcoal extracts. It's an incredibly rare and costly technique that few mills ever try, but the result is a complexity of color that's hard to match. The intense texture of this fabric makes it even more special. High slub yarns throughout create true depth that you can feel and see. Running your hand over the denim is a true experience. You rarely feel texture like this in a fabric. The irregular yarns also help expose the weft further to create an almost heather-like effect as well. Finally, the purest organic cotton is used to spin the yarns, making this denim a true collector item. 
Choose either our classic straight, slim or skinny fit. More details available in our fit guide.

What Customers Are Saying
"I really love Gustin. I just don't think I'd choose another brand at any price point. And I love watching for new products/return of old favs. But a very important part of the experience is the great customer service."
-Keith P. | Verified Buyer
"About a year ago, a coworker introduced me to Gustin (he rocks some of your pants to the office on the regular) and I have been watching the releases ever since. About three months ago, I finally backed a campaign. Since then, I have been so happy with all the pieces I have received."
-Anne F. | Verified Buyer
"Just wanted to thank you for the jeans. I had high hopes and yet these exceed my expectations! I love the fabric, and I love the fit and construction. Nice, nice work."
-Jeffrey S. | Verified Buyer
