Re-use #15 – Kaihara edition

Re-use Kaihara Selvage

This drop is an homage to our standard Dry Selvage denim – the 13.5 oz., mid-weight Japanese selvage from Kaihara Mills, Fukuyama, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan. This denim is one of the reasons Nudie Jeans exists. It left us in awe back in 2001, and still to this day, we're stunned by how it ages.

With the release of Gritty Jackson, and to celebrate the continued legacy of our standard selvage, we give you Re-use drop #15 – Kaihara edition.

Re-use

In 2018, we introduced Re-use Online, where in limited drops we made pre-loved denim available in our online shop. The results have been great, and all drops sold out within a few days. Nudie Jeans wants to take responsibility for the impact that we create, which is why we have chosen to explore ways to reuse the fabric of our old denim by turning it into new products that we can sell again, as the first step before up-cycling and later on recycling at a fiber scale.

A few words on leather

Throughout Nudie Jeans’ history, we’ve chosen to work with leather because just like denim, it’s a material that becomes more beautiful with time. However, the leather industry presents many challenges. Read more about our strict sourcing policy.
