Kaihara #8 - Japanese Non-Stretch Denim | Indigo
Regular price $2.30
Kaihara Denim manufacturers are the epitome of Japanese quality and a namesake for denim that will last many lifetimes. This Kaihara #8 is a gorgeous midweight denim in an indigo colourway with a visible twill and washed finish. Using authentic indigo dye (unlike synthetic dyes used by cheaper brands) to ensure the perfect fade over time, it has pastel blue undertones. With structure, it will soften with wash and wear. The ideal denim for beginners right through to experts, it's perfect for jeans, jackets, skirts and everything in between.
It is said every second person in Japan wears denim manufactured by Kaihara. Founded in 1893, Kaihara Denim continues to build on traditional Japanese methods such as the skill of kasuri weaving to create new innovative denim. A pioneer of wider-width denim without jeopardising the quality Japan is known for, supplying to the world's finest denim brands.
