Beyond Indigo: The Meteor Selvedge's Comeback
In the ever-evolving universe of denim, certain creations emerge as celestial marvels, casting a lasting glow on the denim landscape. This season, we're delighted to announce the return of one such stellar piece: the Meteor Selvedge, a fan favorite from our Fall Winter '21 collection. Making its anticipated comeback, this denim reintroduces itself with its distinctive winter grey hue, offering a sophisticated alternative for those seeking diversity beyond traditional indigo jeans.
Crafted from 11oz Japanese selvedge denim, the Meteor Selvedge distinguishes itself with the intricate use of grey twisted mélange yarns. This technique, intertwining dyed and undyed fibers, weaves a fabric with a dynamic heathered appearance that transcends the capabilities of simple dyeing. Unlike the monochromatic yarns typically found in denim, the Meteor Selvedge utilizes a harmonious mix of white and grey fibers in both the warp and weft. This unique blend brings to life a heather grey denim, imbued with texture and character, elevating it beyond mere color to a statement of style.
The 11oz weight of the Meteor Selvedge ensures year-round comfort and ease of wear. Its winter grey color acts as a versatile foundation, complementing a wide range of palettes and inviting endless styling possibilities. Whether paired with a crisp button-down and blazer for a refined look or dressed down with a casual tee and sneakers, the Meteor Selvedge adapts seamlessly to any style, securing its place as an essential wardrobe staple.
These jeans are accentuated with tonal stitching and a buffed charcoal leather patch, while the all-white selvedge ID offers a striking contrast against the grey denim. Silver metallic buttons and rivets add a refined touch of elegance, completing the design with a nod to classic denim aesthetics.
The rerelease of the Meteor Selvedge is more than a revival of beloved denim; it's a testament to our commitment to exploring the vast potential of raw denim. While indigo might traditionally dominate our palette, we're thrilled to expand our canvas with as many variations as our creativity allows. The Meteor Selvedge embodies everything we cherish about raw denim—from its technical creation to its meticulous attention to detail—proving that even without the typical indigo hue, a fabric can still capture the heart of denim lovers everywhere.
