The Pen 12.5oz Natural Slub Beck

Kato’s respect for denim reaches back decades. Their years of experience and research resulted in their own version of the sought after denim of the 70s. This fabric has been crafted with meticulous precision to replicate the uniform texture of the faded vintage denim collected for the Kato archives. To make this a timeless pair of jeans, they chose their modern slim cut “The Pen”.

The 12.5 ounce, 100% cotton denim does not have stretch but it will break in and mold to you, making it a pair you will want to wear for years. KATO wanted these jeans to be vintage down to the core details, so they introduced a button fly, using donut style laurel leaf buttons, which have been acid dyed to give them an authentic aged look. KATO also added a pop of color with a red leather patch, their own twist on the original.

KATO are offering several versions of the Classic Slub Denim that represent different stages of aging. This wash emulates denim that has been worn for several years. Close attention has been paid to the slight distressing of the front and back pocket edges, to reproduce the wear seen on authentic vintage jeans.
