Rooted in tradition and crafted in Kojima, Kurashiki—the heart of Japanese denim—Graph Zero’s relaxed straight-cut jeans are a true celebration of heritage and innovation. Made from 13oz organic cotton, the denim is woven on vintage shuttle looms to create a rich, textured fabric with a slubby, handwoven feel that ages beautifully over time.
At the core of these jeans is the artful dyeing process. The warp threads are dyed with natural indigo, while the weft features kakishibu, a natural tannin dye derived from unripe persimmons. Using the kase-zome (skein dyeing) method, each yarn is hand-dyed, resulting in subtle variations and a deep, earthy tone that develops character with wear. Nep yarns enhance the fabric’s vintage-inspired texture, offering a nod to early workwear aesthetics.
Graph Zero draws inspiration from 1940s wartime five-pocket jeans, infusing them with signature details that define modern craftsmanship. Features include hidden rivets, chain-stitched hems, durable cotton sewing threads, and a selvedge coin pocket. A brown selvedge ID, red tab on the back pocket, custom Japanese pocket lining, and a debossed cowhide leather patch add authentic touches.
Designed for both comfort and style, the relaxed straight cut delivers a versatile silhouette. The jeans are unsanforized but have been one-washed to eliminate shrinkage. The waistband will stretch naturally with wear, up to about 1 inch, due to the low-tension weave. Fit true to size, though sizing up is an option for those seeking a looser fit. Always refer to the size chart to ensure the perfect fit.
With their rich textures, artisanal dyeing techniques, and timeless design, these jeans are a testament to Graph Zero’s commitment to preserving traditional methods while offering a modern edge.
