Freewheelers bring back a rare classic from the vintage denim archives!
This season Freewheelers have brought us a rare denim style, based on a model originally produced by Levi's in the first half of 1942. Compared with the vintage model, this pair of denim features an increased weight and stronger vertical texture!
This 14oz red selvedge I.D denim is specially developed for this 1942 series denim. It has been slowly woven with vintage denim machines, resulting in a tasteful fabric that strikes the perfect balance of slubbiness with a subtly irregular texture. The denim has been yarn-dyed with grand indigo, with wear and wash, you can expect to see some strong vertical aging with some beautiful high-contrast indigo hues coming through!
This model features vintage-spec details including the signature 'V. West' red tab on the back pocket and an adjustable cinch back to ensure you can get the perfect fit! The 5-button fly construction and custom engraved copper rivets provide extra durability for long-term wear! With time, the buttons and rivets will age and oxidise making up for a classic vintage look!
If you are looking for a rare 1942-style denim, made to the highest standards of Japanese denim construction, you won't want to miss out on Freewheelers!
