The new 'Ai-Kyoku' Denim by Studio D'Artisan embodies the quest for unparalleled texture. Employing the traditional Japanese 'Kasezome' dyeing technique, the warp yarns are carefully dyed, showcasing a harmonious combination of No. 6 slub and nep yarn. By maximizing the weaving capabilities of the looms, the resultant fabric boasts a strikingly bold and irregular texture.

The weft yarns incorporate a No. 5 'super slub' yarn, enhancing the denim's rugged and unrefined look, setting it apart from standard denim with its distinctive texture. This unique slub and irregularity not only contribute to a substantial and heavy fabric but also highlight the exceptional craftsmanship that is a hallmark of Japanese denim.
