TNK101KH - 14.5oz "KAKISHIBU" Selvedge Regular Straight - Indigo x Kakishibu OW

$ 325.00

Tanuki is another brand that's been on our radar for quite some time. The more modern takes on vintage classics were something we always appreciated. And the simplicity of the branding is really alluring to us. We love how they incorporate it in the design of the apparel. They have been one of the most pleasant brands to work with and we can't wait to keep this journey going with a brand that has an eye on the future while keeping one foot in the past. 

According to Tanuki, this denim has been heavily requested for years. By now, you've seen many variations of Kakishibu selvedge and it's almost always darker in nature - something closer to brown. Well, Kakishibu dyeing is an ancient natural dyeing process that uses the persimmon fruit to get its color. Persimmons are orange, not brown; you can clearly see that shade in this heavily saturated denim. We've been addicted to this dye since it came into our lives 6 years ago. It adds a perfect warm base which makes for beautiful fading. We love that you can see the orange cast poking through the weave of the twill. And it looks even better when you flip the cuff. The slubby denim combined with this special dye is finished off with their signature Tanuki blue details making what we see as a contender for "pair of the year."

    Fit Notes: Shop owner Tommy is wearing a size 33 in the pictures, as the regular fit usually has some extra room up top. After the last round, he learned his lesson and went up once which was the right call. The 33 is closer to his true waist fit and could likely even wear a 34. These have plenty of room in the top block and a regular straight fit to the cuff. They're our favorite comfy fit from the brand.  Tommy is 5'10," 163lbs with a 33-34" waist depending on the rise.
