ONI DENIM
【ONI DENIM】 622-14BLK Indigo x Black 14oz Low Tension Selvedge Denim Relaxed Tapered Jeans
This is a fabric that goes back to 20 years ago when ONI first debuted. It is a 14oz low tension woven original fabric produced by ONI on a G3 shuttle loom. This was at the time the best selling denim before Secret Denim was released. It can be considered a signature of ONI’s creation.
What sets this apart from other 14oz denim is the organic distribution of the unevenness. The way the slubby warp present on the fabric almost feels like it is grown out of the denim. It has natural stretch marks of slub all over. But not at all too contrasty that you feel like it is going to be loud.
With the slow and valuable production capacity of vintage shuttle looms. The lead time to make this denim takes up to 8 months. Total it takes more than a year to finalize the productions. With this limit ONI hasn’t been reproducing this fabric for some time.
This time around ONI decided to bring it back with 2 versions, one with beige weft and one with black weft.
At first glance it looks like a black denim. The rinse didn’t bring out much blue hue like some double dyed denim does. With closer inspection, you will notice in some areas the blues are peeking out subtly, indicating that is is a indigo x black denim.
This is a perfect pair of jeans for the hotter months of the year and will fade uniquely like no other. You will be able to feel the wind breeze through this low tension weave and stay comfortable most of the time. This is something we particularly enjoy in the subtropical weather of Taiwan.

Once an item is been hemmed, it will not be eligible for return or refund.
For the length on sanforized raw denim, it is recommend to add 2-3cm in length considering the shrinkage after first wash.
For unsanforized denim, we normally would offer them in rinsed condition, hence there is no need to consider shrinkage.
