Product description
Tailored from a premium 12.5oz open-end selvage denim crafted by Japan's famous Kaihara Mill, the Edwin Loose Fit Kaihara Pure Indigo Openend 12.5oz Denim Jeans in Blue Rinsed provide authentic vintage texture with superior structural durability. Built to resolve the discomfort of tight restrictive denim or thin fabrics that wear out quickly at stress points, these loose fitting jeans feature a subtle rinsed finish that softens the initial cotton stiff feel without losing deep indigo depth. Completed with a classic five pocket setup, heavy duty pocket lining, contrast stitching, and a signature leather waist patch, they deliver excellent breathability, easy leg movement, and timeless workwear utility.
Key Features
- Heavy duty 12.5oz Japanese open-end cotton denim woven at the legendary Kaihara Mill.

- Classic five pocket layout with reinforced stress points and heavy duty pocket bags.
- Durable button fly closure and sturdy belt loops engineered for heavy everyday wear.
- Blue Rinsed colourway features subtle surface slubbing that develops character with age.
At Urban Industry We Recommend These For
- Everyday city wear, workshop tasks, travel, and casual weekend outings.
- Pairing with heavy cotton t-shirts, boxy sweatshirts, or thick canvas work jackets.
- Denim enthusiasts looking for a roomy relaxed fit constructed from authentic Japanese open-end cotton.
Fit & Sizing Recommendations
- Designed by the brand to run in a generous loose cut with a mid to high rise waist.
- Edwin recommends to select your standard waist size for a natural relaxed drape, or size down if you prefer a less voluminous fit around the seat.
- Roomy leg cut prevents pulling across the thighs and knees when bending or sitting.
Washing & Care Instructions
- Wash inside out on a cool 30 degree cycle using mild non-biological liquid detergent.
- Wash separately during initial launders, as pure indigo dye naturally transfers onto lighter fabrics.
- Line dry naturally by hanging from the hem, keeping away from hot radiators or direct sunlight.
- Do not tumble dry or bleach, as excessive heat shrinks raw and rinsed cotton fibres.
Edwin Loose Fit Kaihara Pure Indigo Openend 12.5oz Denim Jeans - Our FAQs
- What makes open-end Kaihara denim special on the Edwin Loose Fit Kaihara Pure Indigo Openend 12.5oz Denim Jeans in Blue Rinsed? Kaihara Mill uses traditional open-end spinning techniques that give the 12.5oz cotton fabric a slightly rougher slub texture and vintage handfeel.
- Will these jeans shrink substantially after the first home wash? Because they have been pre-rinsed during production, shrinkage is minimal when washed according to care instructions on a cool setting.
- How wide is the leg opening on this loose fit model? It features a straight, wide leg cut from the hip down to the ankle hem, giving plenty of room over heavy footwear or trainers.
- Does pure indigo dye rub off on white footwear? As with all genuine pure indigo dyed denim, light dry crocking can occur initially, so exercise care with pale shoes and upholstery.
- How should I wash these jeans to maintain their deep blue shade? Always turn them inside out, use cold water, and air dry naturally to avoid fading the dark indigo dye prematurely.
