ONI-266 - 15oz "Low Tension" Selvedge Denim - Relax Straight Fit

ONI has been our holy grail brand from the very beginning, and we've finally been able to build a relationship with the brand and owner Masao Oishi. The brand is as old school and secretive as it appears. They use traditional construction methods to create low-tension, irregular, slubby denim that has a cult following. Their selvedge tickles the ancient part of our brain that makes us love denim so much. ONI does one thing and they do it to perfection. We can't wait to explore their wonderful world of fabric and fits with you guys.

From everything we can gather, this is a continuation of ONI's commitment to providing lighter styles for 2024. This is a super low tension (as all ONI is low tension) weave that adds extra texture and slub to make up for the lack of weight. These are nice and crunchy as well from the one wash. This denim is more traditional in color compared to the typical ONI greencast. It also features a white weft giving us a new variation to add to the collection. Unlike previous iterations, this round has a back pocket arcuate as well! There are so many things to toggle in the pictures. If you're looking for a lightweight, year-round selvedge with a ton of texture and some out-of-the-ordinary details, this pair might have to be your next scoop.

Fit Notes:Shop owner Tommy is wearing a size 33 in this Relaxed Straight fit. This is his starting point in most denim these days. They were absolutely perfect in the waist with extra room in the thighs, knee, and leg opening. The Relaxed Straight has just a bit more room in the legs than its Regular Straight predecessor. This is ONI's roomiest fit and is built for guys with big legs, or guys looking to rock a fashion cut. Tommy is 5'10," 165lbs, with a 32-33" waist.
