12.5oz - Comfort Monster Brushed Selvedge - Weird Guy
James Dant x Naked & Famous - Comfort Monster Brushed Selvedge - Weird Guy
*These are a limited, exclusive release Launching @ 12pm EST on Oct 23rd. Once they're gone, they're gone*
Our latest collaboration with Canadian denim masterminds Naked & Famous is an extremely unique 12.5oz stretch selvedge with an ultra-soft brushed weft for the ultimate comfort as we prepare to hunker down for another winter season. We have been biting our nails in anticipation of this comfy boy. When we were initially sent the fabric swatch, we knew we had something special - a raw denim with rope-dyed indigo that feels like a pair of sweatpants? It's rather uncanny.
The amazing part is, they look just like your favorite pair of raw denim, with an even better fit. It really didn't take all that much processing to get this pair the way it is. You would think with something that feels like sweatpants you would be looking at a ton of stretch or mega-washing to achieve softness. But, Naked & Famous has stumbled upon technology that allows their incredible 2% power stretch, with incredible bounce back, to feel even softer. The inside, or warp side of the denim, is brushed like your favorite ultra-heavy flannel. We're talking chick fluff softness here! And, they'll still fade beautifully.
We can admit that at one point in our denim adventures, we wouldn't have considered brushed, 2% stretch selvedge to be in our wheelhouse. Howeveer, the past 19 months has changed us. While our closet is still full of starchy, stiff, unwashed pairs of denim...there's always room for comfort. Whether this be the pair you put on to walk the dogs or your daily driver - The Comfort Monster will inevitably wind up holding a special place in your closet. There's a ton of custom details, so scope them all in the bullets.

Fit Notes: The Weird Guy is a slim fit with a medium-high rise, roomy top block, and a slight taper from knee to hem. Shop owner Tommy is wearing a size 30. This is one down from his keystone size from Naked & Famous. Typically wearing Super Guy as his standard fit, he is able to size down one in the Weird Guy. We highly recommend you stick with your true weird guy size or go up one based on the meticulously taken measurements above. These are so comfy that they were easy to fit in, but if you want more room you may want to consider going up to the next size. Keep in mind, these will stretch easier and .5" more than your standard pair of mid-heavyweight denim. Tommy is 5'10" and 170lbs with a 32-33" waist.

The last time we saw this flannel it was dyed with Kakishibu. We didn't think that could be topped, but you know how much we love mud. Amami Dorozome is an age-old process done on the island of Amami-Oshima in Japan. It's a blend of mud and vegetable oil that creates rich earth tones in a washed-out, well-worn pigment only achievable through this process. In a traditional cotton check pattern such as this, it shines its brightest. We didn't get our hands on this personally last time, but we aren't going to let this one slip through our fingers.

These guys keep one-upping the Sashiko game every year. We didn't get a chance to see these in person, but we're so glad we picked them up. They are so much better than we could've even imagined. At first sight, they look like a denim pant lined with a hickory stipe screen print. Then, we got close up and realized it was the vertical sashiko creating that line work. The hand-feel after the one-wash is beyond soft, but they're still packed with so much color you're still going to get those incredible highs and lows in the knees. The great part about sashiko is you get varied high points throughout the garment that catch wear in a different way. The inspiration for sashiko garments derives from the Japanese sashiko which never truly died. They would use pieces of the last garment to create the new, hand stitching throughout. Well, they've taken this concept and created a modern work of art. They've used a combination of No.6 warp and No.5 weft yarns on specially calibrated Jacquards looms. Their hope is to replicate the Sashiko stitchwork of the kimonos, and we'd say they've accomplished that pretty damn well.

The only thing that could've improved this serge western was a new color. This one was originally called Mocha Brown, which we think is very suitable. It's this rich color that suits this now iconic shirt. It used to be that we rarely saw green from Iron Heart, but now green is a staple. So, we've been super stoked to see khakis and browns rearing their pretty heads. You can't go wrong with the western cut, unless you don't size up, as it has some absolutely gorgeous details. We love the yokes and Permex buttons the most on these beauties.
