{"product_id":"ontake-in-heavyweight-japanese-selvedge","title":"Ontaké in Heavyweight Japanese Selvedge","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThere are jeans you wear, and there are jeans you commit to. This is the second kind. A 21 oz Japanese selvedge, cut into the same clean five-pocket silhouette as our Classic Ontaké. But the fabric changes everything. Where the midweight denim breaks in over months, the 21 oz takes a season. It may not flatter you immediately. It may not move quietly. It will stand up on its own when you take it off. The kind of jeans that get talked about in forums and inherited by the next generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA 21 oz selvedge from Japan, woven on shuttle looms at a weight most mills cannot run. Heavy denim is harder to weave. The shuttle has to throw a thicker yarn through a tighter shed, slowly, without breakage. What you get in return is a fabric with extraordinary depth. The indigo sits darker. The slubs read sharper. The fades when they come are more dramatic than anything a lighter denim can produce. The first month, the jeans wear like new selvedge should. Dense, structured, unhurried. Then they begin to give, slowly, exactly where your body asks them to. Whiskers like rope. Honeycombs like canyons. A pair of jeans that records every moment you spend in them, in higher resolution than the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWear them often. Wash them rarely, and never in the first six months unless you have to. Cuff them. The selvedge ID at the outseam is the whole point. A white tee and white sneakers keeps it simple. Boots and a chambray shirt is the natural register. In a year, the jeans will look like nothing else you own. In five, they will be the most personal garment in your wardrobe. Stretch jeans cannot do this. Only heavy selvedge can.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eProudly made in India.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Monks of Method","offers":[{"title":"Made to Measure \/ Raw Indigo \/ Standard","offer_id":46963372490998,"sku":"OTK-21J-RW-CSF-MTM","price":34989.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/0453\/8358\/files\/OTK-21J-RW-CSF-MTM-Model2.jpg?v=1777382614","url":"https:\/\/monksofmethod.com\/products\/ontake-in-heavyweight-japanese-selvedge","provider":"Monks of Method","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
