The J201-MID is a slim tapered pair crafted from Japan Blue's renowned 14.8oz US cotton selvedge fabric, enhanced by a transformative wash process that gives the denim the look and feel of a well-worn vintage piece. These jeans feature signature Japan Blue details, including a vegetable-tanned leather patch, royal blue inseam, and branded doughnut-shaped top button.

Made from durable American cotton with reinforced yarns, these jeans are built to last, offering both longevity and resilience. The warp yarn is meticulously rope-dyed in deep indigo, ensuring a unique, rich fade with subtle contrast after the wash process, adding to their timeless appeal. Woven on vintage shuttle looms, the fabric is intentionally tightened for a robust finish, maintaining its rugged charm. The fabric is sanforized, and after the sewing process, the jeans have been one-washed to increase comfort.

Embracing innovation, Japan Blue introduces the 'Circle' Jeans series, setting a new standard for refined denim. These jeans boast a curved waistband designed to contour perfectly around the waist, offering unparalleled comfort and a flattering silhouette. Enhanced with pocket bags crafted from thick cloth and branding inspired by the Circle line, these jeans seamlessly blend style with functionality. This new line represents a fusion of superior fit and premium fabrics meticulously woven on vintage shuttle looms in Kojima. Years of collaboration between Japanese denim masters and European designers culminate in this exceptional collection, embodying the brand's commitment to excellence and innovation.

Fit Notes: These jeans have a standard sizing. We recommend choosing your usual size. However, as always, we recommend checking the size chart first to find your perfect size. These have been stonewashed, so there will be no shrinkage. The waist will experience the typical stretching seen in sanforized denim. Expect approximately 0.5 to 1 inch of stretching.
