Description
The MIJ18 Mezuki Selvedge takes its name from Mezu, the horse-headed guardian of the underworld who, alongside his ox-headed counterpart Gozu, serves as one of the chief torturers and punishers of the wicked in Japanese Buddhist folklore. Said to be the first beings encountered upon entering hell, the pair stand watch at its gates, escorting souls to their final judgement. Should a soul somehow escape, it is Mezu and Gozu who are sent to bring it back.
That ever-present duality is reflected in the fabric itself. Woven from 16oz slubby Japanese selvedge denim, black warp yarns conceal a beige weft beneath. Like the hidden presence of Gozu beside Mezu, the second character of the fabric remains unseen at first, only gradually revealing itself through wear. As the black warp fades, the beige weft emerges, creating bold, high-contrast fades with exceptional depth.
The heavily slubbed yarns create an irregular surface that enhances the denim’s texture and fading potential over time. A Tempi treatment prevents the fabric’s residual shrinkage while preserving the crisp hand and aging characteristics expected of raw denim.
The Weird Guy is a regular tapered fit; medium rise, standard thigh and slight taper from the knee to hem
