Crafted with precision, this jet-black denim boasts a depth of darkness unparalleled by any other. Unlike traditional raw denim, this new 13oz selvedge denim is sanforized to ensure the dark color is as uniform as possible. It is the culmination of ONI's mastery in the craft. Through meticulous dyeing processes, ONI has achieved a richness in darkness that defies convention. Dyed multiple times in a deep, pitch-black hue, this Jet Black Denim sets a new standard in darkness, surpassing anything achievable with traditional rope dyeing techniques.
But achieving this level of darkness wasn't easy. Countless technical adjustments were made to perfect the dyeing process, ensuring uniformity in color that's second to none. With its crisp texture and undeniable character, this Jet Black Denim beckons to be worn and cherished. As you break it in, watch as the darkness fades to reveal a lighter core beneath, creating a unique patina.
These jeans are built upon the foundation of the iconic 246 cut. This neat straight cut boasts a timeless, clean silhouette with straight legs and minimal taper for the best balance, featuring premium details such as black copper buttons, high-quality pocket bags, heavy-duty bar tacks, a new and custom veg-tanned cowhide leather patch adorned with the face of a demon, and a fresh pocket flasher created specifically for this model.
The jet black collection runs a bit large compared to ONI's usual sizing. We recommend sizing down from your typical ONI size. However, as always, we recommend consulting the size chart first to determine your perfect fit. It is sanforized, so there will be no shrinkage.
The legend of ONI is alive to this day. In recent years Oishi-San has devoted himself to experimenting with widely varying grammages, rough textures, different indigo dyeing techniques and novelty cuts while always maintaining a very limited production and wielding his experience in denim which now goes back more than 60 years.
