Our relaxed tapered cut jean, made from 14oz indigo selvedge denim. Our 14oz denim (second version) is made with a double twisted weft yarn (the same construction technique as our 21oz selvedge denim) At 14oz, this is our "least heavy" Japanese jean denim.

Our Fabric Notes

This 14oz denim offers a lighter, more manageable weight compared to Iron Heart’s heavier fabrics. It provides structure without an extended break-in period and is comfortable for year-round wear.

Our Fit Notes

The 888 has a higher rise with more room in the top block, tapering gradually from the knee to the hem. This creates a balanced silhouette that feels comfortable in the seat and thigh while still offering a cleaner leg opening.

Who This Is For

A good choice for those who want comfort in the top block with a more refined, tapered shape below the knee.

• To further reduce the risk of shrinkage, we wash the completed garment in an aggressive industrial washing machine. This process removes virtually all potential shrinkage.
• No further shrinkage is expected when washed according to our care guidelines
