Classic Italian red selvedge denim woven on a traditional 91cm narrow loom. This ocean indigo shade is lighter and brighter than deep indigo, showing off the contrast between indigo warp and natural weft for a clean, authentic denim look.
At 10.7oz (approx. 363gsm), this is a true jeans-weight cloth - structured, durable and built to soften beautifully with wear. The signature red selvedge edge makes it ideal for turned cuffs and visible detailing. Woven from 100% cotton in Italy, it offers the strength and character expected from proper shuttle-loom denim.
