21oz Samurai Original Japanese selvage denim

100% Cotton
Pure Indigo

Front pocket bags have an original Jacquard pattern interwoven with thin Beige threads which reads "Shogyo Mujo" (諸行無常), a basic belief principle that all things of this world are transient and impermanent; also translated as "Everything is transient and always changing" or "All Things Change".

The rivets are made of copper with the underside of the front rivets reading サムライ "Samurai" while the underside of the back rivets read "Shogyo Mujo" (諸行無常). 21oz
Made In Japan

Samurai calls this the "Cloth of Super Excellence" and for good reason. Woven
on vintage wooden shuttle looms, only the weaving craftsmen of the highest
merit and skill were able to tame the looms that created this tough 21 ounce
denim. The average weight for these antique looms is 13 ounces, 15 ounces is
manageable, 17 ounces is pushing it, 19 ounces and the machines are under
pressure, 21 ounces is well.......

While the resistance created noise at levels almost intolerable, the weavers had
to basically train the machines to handle the heavyweight threads attacking and
passing through them. Great hardships and pain were endured to successfully
weave the "Cloth of Super Excellence". Had they not the skills nor patience to
control these power looms we may never have the chance to experience this
truly unique denim created by these truly unique craftsmen. Their blood, sweat,
and soul is symbolized by the strands of Red and Gold lamé which run along the
selvage line of this XX21oz denim.
