Slim 50's Jeans - Indigo One Wash
TCB - 50's Jeans - Indigo One Wash
Launching Saturday, March 12th at 1pm EST
You may be asking yourself why Two Cat's Brand (TCB) is so special. Well, beyond all the obvious details, there's a story. This is a brand that truly does what they love. Most things have a rhyme and reason, but sometimes they just create what suits their needs. The vintage, reproduction inspiration behind the brand is clearly visible. They're honoring styles from the '30s-'60s with a few items dating pre-1900's. Sometimes they create fantasy or future (e.g. present) cuts that didn't exist in the past, but the bulk of their work is true reproduction. That's what we went with on this round. You may also be asking, why such a low price compared to other Japanese brands. This is due to the fact that everything besides the milling of the fabric is done in-house. There is no outsourcing for cutting or sewing. In Kojima, the denim capital of Japan sits their vertically integrated factory where they do:
fabric cutting, single stitch sewing, lapping seam sewing, applying buttons and rivets, and much, much more. We are so excited to introduce you to TCB.
For this pair of jeans, TCB referred to the vintage piece from the late 50's. This round is the 50's pants you know and love, but they've given it a futuristic slim fit. The same beautiful Zimbabwe cotton and details accompany this pair. They're super hairy with that leather patch and pale pink selvedge ID. These bad boys are also pre-rinsed so you don't have to worry about shrinkage. Always wanted a pair of TCB's but simply couldn't get with the fit? Well...these are that modern fit so many of you have been waiting for.

- 13.5oz Zimbabwe Cotton
- Full Button Fly
- Period Correct Leather Two Cats Brand Patch
- Pale Pink Selvedge ID
- Pre-Rinsed

- Made in Kojima, Japan

*Fit Notes: You’ll notice garment waist measurement is smaller than your usual tag size at James Dant. Tommy is wearing a size 32 in these. That's one size up from his standard size. He could potentially wear a size 31 in these and stretch them out, but this fit is really nice. If you're ever unsure, size up once. 99% of our returns are due to customers buying a size too small. Tommy is 5'10," 162lbs, with a true waist between 32-33".
Apparel
It's been some time since we've had indigo denim from Freenote, and we couldn't think of a better introduction than this blue/brown. If you know anything about our preferences, you know we love an earth-tone weft. Well, it doesn't get any more earthy than this. The brown on these is deeper than any we've seen from persimmon, turmeric, or catechu dyes in the past. It's a true mocha-colored brown that we think makes for one hell of a stylistic denim. The contrast between indigo and brown is a lot less harsh than that of a traditional jean, and this makes for a better-looking cuff in our opinion. It's also right in our sweet spot for weight. We really dig anything between 14-16oz. It has the perfect amount of crunch to give you all of those wonderful lines around the legs without being so hard to break in. This is the fabric we've been waiting for Freenote to work with for years!

CD-4 Jacket - Black
When we saw this fabric, even via catalog images, we knew we had to have it in the shop. It's such a unique twist for the guys at Freenote that lends to a more contemporary look. If you're like us, you'll think this baby is waxed up front. Crazy enough, it's not. This is a double pigment dyed fabric from Japan that gives off the look of a waxed piece, without all the upkeep of a waxed piece. It has a nice crunchy texture to it that even feels waxed in person. We couldn't believe our ears when they told us about it at a recent show. It's lined throughout the body with Alpaca and the sleeves have this gorgeous burnt orange satin. This thing is truly luxurious. It's so warm and looks so damn good. It functions like an N-1 at about half the price!
Jepson Sashiko Plaid - Indigo
The Jepson is a known staple at this point, but their ability to make it look new with every release is pretty astonishing. We said that last time but they've done it again. A mix of sashiko and plaid is almost too much to handle. It's a classic 2 pocket shirt that can be worn with almost anything. It has so many layers to explore right now, and even more, will expose its true nature once the indigo starts to fade. This baby is a standalone piece that doesn't really need other layers to make it pop.
Kurt Jacket - Indigo Single Stripe
The single stripe has become a staple at the shop over the last couple of years, but always in pant form. When we saw this classic chore coat-style work jacket come up, we couldn't say no. This fabric always constructs so nicely and the indigo pops like crazy when it's hit with the one wash. We are super intrigued by the mismatched pockets and all the extra sewing work throughout. The extra pockets and banded collar are the extra details that draw you in, but most people stay for that gorgeous Japanese fabric.
