Freenote's 14.25oz black selvedge denim is woven using a sanforized denim fabric from Yoshiwa Mills in Osaka, Japan. The boutique mill specializes in producing unique small-batch fabric runs, each with ample texture and character. Worn daily by Markus Alexander, these well-faded jeans have been on multiple motorcycle rides with Alexander and were worn regularly as work pants. Interesting details on this pair include a darning repair done at Blue Owl, patina on the exposed rivet on the back pocket, and an evident streak gained through the texture from the Japanese milled denim.
