In the 1960s, when Japan’s denim culture began to take shape, BIG JOHN helped build the foundation of made-in-Japan jeans by working with denim imported from the United States. The SL VINTAGE Series revisits that origin and reconstructs the essence of vintage jeans with a modern sensibility.
The fabric is a 12oz selvedge denim woven on a vintage TOYODA shuttle loom.
Style
- Color: 001 (One Wash)
- Fit: Classic fit
Features
- Cotton: Blend of American and Australian cotton (fiber length approx. 28–29mm)
- Yarn: Heavy slub yarn (warp #7 / weft #10), Cotton 100%
- Dye: 100% pure indigo rope dyeing for a deep, rich tone
- Weaving: Selvedge denim woven on a vintage TOYODA GL-3 shuttle loom
- Weight: 12oz selvedge denim with an easy break-in feel
For sewing, BIG JOHN uses thick #8 thread—matching the heavy thread commonly used in the 1960s. The paper label is specially treated to create a vintage look while also withstanding heavy wash processing.
Design
The design is based on a classic pleated trucker jacket with a comfortable amount of room in the body. While the fabric is relatively lighter at 12oz, it balances toughness and a clean appearance, fitting a wide range of everyday situations. A subtle selvedge detail is placed inside the front placket—an understated detail that reflects BIG JOHN’s attention to craftsmanship even in unseen areas.
