The Okayama Standard remains on top as our best selling Japanese selvedge denim of all time. Looking at the absolutely beautiful fades you get from it, the reason becomes pretty clear. Get started on yours today.
Gustin jeans made from sanforized raw selvedge denim from one of the finest mills in Japan. When we search for a perfect Japanese selvedge, we look for a few key things: solid weight, dark indigo start and the potential to wear to the perfect medium blue with great texture. We saw everything we liked in the Okayama Standard. This style is a very solid 14.5oz, starts out raw in a deep blue indigo and wears to the mythical medium blue we all want. The fade shots tell the story. The color is stunning, the grain amazing. It even has a great vertical grain when worn in. Throw in a very cool double stitch orange selvedge ID and this is a perfect, traditional Japanese denim. Made in the Okayama Prefecture, this one is perfect all around denim. You will receive a new pair of raw denim, not worn-in or distressed.
This is the same style and quality that was sold in boutiques all over the country for much higher.

"I am very pleased with the 32 Slim sizing. Out the gate the waist was comfortable with no belt needed. After a week of wear I can feel the waist is relaxing, still don’t need a belt. The denim feels more premium than other designer selvedge I have purchased in the past. Previously I have the Rainbow nep selvedge in 31 slim and after a few washes they have shrunk and they are a little tight front rise and waist. I’m confident that the size 32 will hold up to shrinkage over time and still fit me."

"Seems like great quality material. I like the look of it and the stitching.
Fit is decent. Feels like the butt and crotch are a little tight, same with the calves. I ordered the 38 slim, will order a 38 straight next time."

"Beautiful denim, but 1 extra inch in the Front Rise (Slim cut) would make them so much more comfortable when seated."
-James P. | Verified Buyer
"Excellent quality and style. Customer service is top notch. I recommend these jeans highly."
"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
"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
"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."
