Ijin Material items purposely distort the rules of denim know-how, with clear intentions
of presenting the classic indigo leg in a contemporary, but alternative, way.
They are faithful to traditional methods of specialised jeans-making
utilizing only artisinal Italian slow-denim production
specializing in hand-craftmanship, limited editions
& single item production runs.

Tailor-finished with coloured bindings, busted seat seams,striped ticking linings &
hand-pressed pocket pieces, Ijin indigo is often sewn with up to five thread colours.
One of these is real indigo, used as the

invisible thread which naturally fades together
with the standard Japan weave cloth.
This means all Ijin items are as beautiful
on the inside as on the outside.

Hand-cut leather detailing is common &
both personalized solid-nail copper rivets
& thread stitched rivets used,
The traditional Union chain-stitched hem itself is
sewn on a machine more than 60 years old.

Despite the stealthy appearance of regular denim,
Ijin denim is, in fact, very irregular.
The Ijin guarantee is endorsed on every pair
which always carries a red tag ...........
hidden inside each right back pocket.
