Raw Japanese Denim. 13.5 oz Kaihara. Made in Japan.

If you appreciate denim that isn't pre-worn but rather tells its story through you and your individual way of wearing it, then the EDWIN Regular Tapered Jeans are the perfect choice.

Crafted from 13.5 oz Kaihara Dark Pure Indigo Rainbow Selvage Denim, these jeans come unwashed. The fabric is initially quite stiff and boasts the typical deep indigo color of raw denim. But that's precisely the point: with every wear, the jeans transform – creases, abrasions, and movement gradually leave your personal marks.

KAIHARA DENIM – JAPANESE DENIM CULTURE

Kaihara is one of the most renowned Japanese denim mills, known for uncompromising quality and decades of experience in producing premium denims.

The 13.5 oz Rainbow Selvage Denim combines a classic Dark Pure Indigo with a distinctive rainbow selvage edge. The fabric is robust enough for daily wear, yet at 13.5 oz, it remains comfortably wearable – a nice sweet spot between true heavy denim and everyday practicality.

And because the jeans are unwashed, you have the opportunity to experience the development of the denim from the very beginning.

REGULAR TAPERED – CLASSIC BASE, MODERN PROFILE

The Regular Tapered Fit is based on a classic Japanese silhouette but has been given a modern interpretation by EDWIN.

The jeans sit regularly at the hip and thigh and taper slightly from the knee towards the ankle. They also feature a mid-rise waist, creating a balanced silhouette – not too tight, not too loose, and perfectly combinable with sneakers, boots, or a good leather jacket.

YOUR JEANS. YOUR FADES.

The beauty of raw denim is that no two pairs of jeans will look the same in the end.

The initially dark indigo tone will change over time. In areas with a lot of movement and friction, individual fades will develop – at the knees, pockets, thighs, and wherever your personal everyday life leaves its marks.

EDWIN points out that the denim may bleed when washed or initially when dry, and can shrink by up to 3%. Therefore, the jeans should only be washed when necessary and turned inside out during washing.

Our tip: Wear them. Live in them. Don't wash them constantly.
And let the denim do its work.

THE LOWDOWN

The EDWIN Regular Tapered Jeans are an excellent choice for anyone who wants to enter the world of Japanese Raw Denim without immediately opting for extremely heavy 18 or 21 oz denims.

13.5 oz Kaihara Denim, Rainbow Selvage, Dark Pure Indigo, and Made in Japan – plus a modern tapered fit that works well for everyday wear.

An honest Japanese denim classic with plenty of potential for a truly beautiful personal fade story.
