From the brand: KATO' by Hiroshi Kato crafts premium selvedge denim inspired by the classic vintage blue jean. Their Premium Japanese 4-Way Stretch Selvedge denim story starts in Japan where the fabric is developed at one of the oldest denim mills. KATO blends a unique 4 way stretch material with selvedge denim to create a specific amount of stretch and comfort you wouldn’t typically get with selvedge denim. This 360 degree of stretch gives the wearer comfort from every angle no matter what they are doing. KATO's 4-Way Stretch selvedge fabric is woven using vintage shuttle looms. Rolls of denim fabric are then brought into the workshop in Los Angeles where each pair goes through a 60 to 90 day process of cut, sew, washing and testing. With 4 fits available in multiple weights and washes, the style options are endless. KATO's uses just 2% stretch in the weft and 2% stretch in the warp to give the jeans the perfect amount of 360 degree, multi-directional stretch without compromising the authenticity of Japanese Denim.  These jeans, made in-house at the KATO' factory in LA, use Japanese thread and every pair incorporates the attention to details that you’d expect.  They will fade like raw denim should… except they are more comfortable than any other jeans you have ever tried on.  No one except you will know that you are wearing “stretch” jeans.  Once you try them on you will be hooked! KATO's brand-new Etched denim is a perfect example of when quality and heritage meet inspiration. The crosshatch slub texture in this denim is only found in the highest quality Japanese denim. The skill and equipment needed to produce this kind of denim is very rare and only a handful of mills in the world can achieve this due to the need for highly skilled craftspeople.
