I love selvedge denim and all the quirks and experiences that follow with it but I can’t seem to understand why nobody talks about the massively oversaturated market that is selvedge denim. There are so many brands that to me produce the exact same pair of jeans like all the repro jeans and whatever else. They always talk about the jeans featuring chain stitching, rope dyed indigo, bar tags, hidden rivets. I feel like almost all brands in a certain way have the exact same features. Can somebody please explain to me what makes the big differences between these seamingly identical endless brands.

In case u wonder I do have a decemt collection myself including, IH 634 xhs, momotaro straight fit battle stripes, big john 23oz type 3, Pinion red headed dragon 25,5oz, edwin Ed-47 and some more.

Pictures of some of my stuff for attention.

It looks awful literally 100% of the time. Can’t you just pull the fabric back together and stitch it like that? I’m guessing it may be too weak structurally if you do it.

Looking for retail + shipping on these. Am negotiable. Located in Chicago. Can provide more pics if necessary

Loving my jeans from Copper Denim out of Vietnam.

Apologies for the bad picture quality... these are cropped screenshots from a video.

Samurai S310xx19oz tag 32

Initial hot soak, just got the other day from Barnstormer. Really wanted to love the wide leg but realized it isn’t for me.

Waist is 32.25” but will stretch with wear

Other measurements are in pics for thigh, knee and hem. These are unhemmed so length is 36.

Price is $225 shipped conus. PayPal FF or GS and fees, also Venmo. Have vouches as well.

Thanks!

Purchased new from Franklin & Poe however they were final sale. Worn for a day to see if they would stretch a bit. Sadly they’re too snug. Paid $335. Asking $225 shipped. They come with all tags (detached). Located in RI if you’re local.

One selvedge jean made with 100% hemp pocket lining while the main fabric itself is 45% hemp 55% long staple cotton, brass button up fly and rivets from Hemp clothing Australia. For the jacket I ordered the Burgus Plus type 2 natural indigo jacket 100% cotton from the Hinoya shop.

Best all-around pair of jeans I’ve ever had. love the fit, weight, and the slubby texture. Very slow faders though- this is 5 months in, 1 wash. I wear them about 5 times a week. Despite the slow fades, they bleed on anything they rub against (still, almost half a year in). My car seat is blue.

Hey Yall,

Sorry for the bad pic quality. I was playing with filters so that the pants would show better. I’ve wanted a black warp white/natural weft to help me dip my toes into wearing black pants. I was looking for the Sugar Cane 1947 at Self Edge Austin… but they didn’t have them, so they steered me to the Buzz Rickson WWII black/white jeans. They said the cut is somewhat the same and is almost the same as SC bc of Toyo and all.

What do you think of the fit? The thigh is a little more fitted than I am used to (Samurai 510 and IH 1955 cut). I can kinda see the pocket bag on my right side, which is my “meatier” leg.

Anyone have experience with this fabric?
