S211XX17oz-SLB Murakumo 17oz Japanese Selvedge Denim Relax Taper
Samurai's 211 relaxed tapered cut features a quite versatile fit, with a high rise, roomy thigh and top block, and a taper from the knee down.
Weighing in at 17oz and showcasing extra slubby texture and a myriad of rope-dyed light indigo hues, Murakumo is a great pair for denim enthusiasts, offering tons of texture and hue variety, as well as a much different starting point compared to most other jeans on the market. Despite being 17oz these are loosely woven, so they are relatively breathable, while still offering a satisfying break-in period.
The ancient term Murakumo technically means "altocumulus clouds", but has been historically used to refer to a heavenly gathering of clouds in an alternating blue and white pattern. With these special jeans, the indigo blue slub yarns represent the sky while the white slub yarns appear as the clouds peeking out between the rows of blue. This is Murakumo.
