    Description

    Introducing the Ueno Dry Elite Selvage, a distinguished addition to our collection of premium selvage jeans. Designed with a classic regular straight fit, this style is perfectly complemented by our exceptional Dry Elite Selvage fabric—one of our top picks in the world of selvage denim.

    This 14.2 oz red-cast selvage denim is meticulously crafted by Shinya Mills in Okayama, Japan. The warp yarns undergo an intricate 20-dip indigo dye process, resulting in a rich, deep indigo hue with a distinctive red undertone. Woven under low tension, the fabric features a wonderfully textured and uneven surface, achieving a perfect blend of rugged charm and refined quality. The story behind this denim is equally remarkable. Shinya Mills, celebrated for their denim expertise, painstakingly recreated the Dry Elite Selvage by examining and reverse-engineering a well-worn pair of 1950s jeans. This detailed approach highlights their exceptional craftsmanship and commitment to authenticity.

    But this is only the start of the Ueno Dry Elite Selvage's journey. As you wear and age these jeans, whether washed or left unwashed, they will develop into a remarkably stylish piece of denim. The red-cast tone will evolve into a striking blue hue, while the fabric's uneven texture will produce a unique salt-and-pepper effect. In high-wear areas, sharp twill lines will become prominent, showcasing the true character of the jeans. The name "Ueno" truly lives up to its reputation. Discover the exceptional Ueno Dry Elite Selvage today!
