Discerning enthusiasts know that Kurabo Mills is one of Japan's oldest textile mills, responsible for numerous classic denim lines. Among these, KUROKI denim is particularly lauded for its remarkable fading and substantial feel. The RT team's reproduction of this Okayama-sourced fabric, a tribute to the double-dyed material woven with indigo-dyed weft and black-dyed warp, showcases RT's dedication to craftsmanship. Based on the NUDIE-GT model, this faithful reproduction of classic double-dyed fabric weighs 14.5oz and exhibits natural fading. This particular model features reinforced seams and chain-stitched hems. The hardware is custom-made, complemented by pure cotton sewing thread that will age alongside the denim, resulting in stunning fades. This style is specially offered in two versions: unsanforized and sanforized, allowing you to choose according to your preference. / Product Information / - DN-0002 - 100% Cotton - Denim Double Dyeing - 14.5oz - Mid-rise Relaxed Straight Fit - Okayama Double-Dyed Fabric - Vintage Loom Selvedge - Vegetable-Tanned Leather Patch - Custom Antique Silver Wheat Ear Button - Pure Cotton Sewing Thread / Care Instructions / - Gentle wash, separate colors, recommend using a neutral detergent. - Do not use detergents containing bleach. / Sizing Advice / - For the unsanforized version, the waist will shrink by approximately 1-2 cm and the length by 2-3 cm after the first wash. - Product dimensions are measured flat.

It requires soaking to remove this sizing. Here are a few methods for denim beginners; feel free to message us with any questions. Hot Water Soaking Method (Shrinkage 2-3%): Soak in approximately 40°C hot water for 40 minutes. Do not spin dry or sun dry. Wear when 90% dry, then air dry in a cool place. Room Temperature Water Soaking Method (Less Shrinkage): Soak in room temperature water for 40 minutes. Turn inside out and drip dry. Do not spin dry or sun dry. Wear directly, then air dry in a cool place. Aggressive Soaking Method (Maximum Shrinkage): If the size is too large, this method can be used. Machine wash once in room temperature water, spin dry once, and air dry in a cool place. (Shrinkage is directly proportional to water temperature) Pants will still feel stiff after the initial sizing removal. Therefore, it is recommended to wear them when 90% dry to avoid them becoming too tight after shrinking. Don't worry if they feel a bit snug initially; they will gradually conform to your body shape and become much more comfortable after being worn for a while. Different brands, conditions, and individual actions can lead to varying shrinkage rates. The interesting part is that with the same fabric and method, each person's operation can yield different results, with no right or wrong. Let's explore the joy of denim care together!
