The "SD-DO1" jeans embody a reimagining of the inaugural masterpiece, the "DO-1," introduced by STUDIO D'ARTISAN in 1979—an intentional journey back to the brand's origins. With a steadfast commitment to authenticity, STUDIO D'ARTISAN embarked on an intensive exploration of their original denim fabric, meticulously recreating the unique 6-count yarn composition with an exact match in terms of twist and irregularity, an endeavor that commenced right from the spinning process.

This revived denim canvas is skillfully woven utilizing the Awa Tokushima Hank-dyeing Natural Indigo yarn, infusing each thread with the essence of craftsmanship and tradition. The methodical dyeing and drying ritual were performed a remarkable 20 times, a testament to the dedication invested in this process. The result is an exquisite dark indigo hue that exudes a depth achieved only through time-honored patience.

This deliberate design choice not only honors the past but also aligns harmoniously with the modern fashion landscape, bridging eras effortlessly. As a tribute to the genesis of the brand and its evolution, the "SD-DO1" jeans stand as a testament to STUDIO D'ARTISAN's unwavering commitment to craftsmanship, heritage, and enduring style.
