Question: Black Selvedge

[0ld School]

Currently in the market for black selvedge, preferably unwashed and raw.

Straight leg though with some sag to it.

Any suggestions for black raw denim, selvedge or otherwise?

Gracias.

Try Denime. They do it.

There's been a topic about black selvedge denim previously. You should be able to locate it using the search function. It may turn up a few suggestions for you.

If I remember correctly, doesn't Surrender do black selvedge denim as well?

Not sure if they're raw or not though...

Hey Serge, I sent you a PM before I saw this post... Anyway. What do those Varvatos jeans fit like? Slim, baggy, low, high, etc?

45rpm has black selvedge jeans- they are super high quality and break in nice.

They fit pretty well. I imagine that they are similar to APC rescue: Bootleg neither low nor high rise, flat yoke. I thin I got mine for like $60, they are a bargain. I am going to hem nine, so I will do a test next week to see if they are colorfast. I think they are, which means fading will be difficult.

Whilst super high quality, i'm sure 45rpm will also be super expensive as well.

Any spots that stock Denime online?

For anybody in the UK, ace in manchester do some. Their link is listed in the big selvedge thread. I am from manchester and i only just found out about them, so definatley going to check them out. I have seen a pair on ebay before, nice looking 501 type pairs. Thier indigo is a redline and thier black denim is a blueline selvedge. They are coming from a kind off 50s teddy boy angle rather than street fashion orientated.
