Tanuki 14.5oz "Kakishibu" High Rise Tapered Selvedge Jeans

Tanuki's Kakishibu denim is a bold step forward in natural-dye craftsmanship. Featuring a persimmon-dyed weft with a vibrant orange hue inspired by the fruit’s skin, this denim offers a striking departure from the subdued tones typical of Kakishibu dyeing. The unique fabric showcases a rugged slub texture, achieved through a blend of Australian and Texas short-staple cotton, giving the jeans a tactile, vintage-inspired feel.

Designed with comfort in mind, the extra low-tension weave makes this mid-heavy denim surprisingly breathable and light—perfect for wear year-round. As the jeans age, both warp and weft will develop a rich, dynamic patina, evolving with exposure to sunlight and daily use.

Finished with Tanuki’s signature blue contrast stitching, custom hardware, and a premium leather patch, these jeans are a testament to the brand’s dedication to innovation and tradition.

The Tanuki High Tapered fit features a high waist and a relaxed top block, ideal for those with stronger thighs. It tapers moderately to a hem versatile enough for sneakers or boots.
