Japan Blue presents their original jacquard shorts, crafted from their signature lightweight indigo sashiko fabric. This unique material combines rope-dyed indigo yarn for the warp and cheese-dyed indigo yarn for the weft, resulting in distinct color fades over time. Made from 7oz. Sashiko Jacquard fabric, these shorts offer both style and durability with a 100% cotton construction and premium details such as Universal Japan gold zipper fly, hidden fifth pocket slit, and a brown resin top button.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these shorts feature a distinctive Sashiko pattern, adding texture and uniqueness to the fabric. Historically used for crafting sturdy garments such as budo clothes and attire for Japanese firefighters, this fabric promises to age gracefully over time, acquiring unique fades with each wear and wash while providing a deep and rich indigo hue.

These shorts have a standard sizing. We recommend choosing your usual size. However, as always, we recommend checking the size chart first to find your perfect size. The waist will experience the typical stretching seen in sashiko. Expect approximately 0.5 to 1 inch of stretching.

Japan Blue Jeans epitomizes craftsmanship through modern silhouettes, Japanese selvedge fabrics, and accessible pricing, alongside Momotaro, both embodying handcrafted excellence and meticulous attention to detail since 2005 and 2010, respectively, under the commitment to quality upheld by Mr. Hisao Manabe.
