They retail for $230 brand new at BlueOwl.us.

I am selling these because they are too tight for my runner thighs.

These are a pair of 2 month old pairs of indigo/indigo low tension denim from Seattle's Blue Owl's collaboration with Japanese brand, Japan Blue.

There is some fading, but this pair of jeans still has a lot of life in it. However, there is a small hole at the knee from a bike fall.

These are chain-stitched hem by Blue Owl to a 33" inseam.

* Our second collaboration with Japan Blue uses an indigo/indigo 14oz low tension woven selvedge made in Japan Blue's skinny straight fit. The denim is made in Japan by Japan Blue, using all Japan Blue signature details, is designed by Blue Owl, and is a limited production run of 61 pairs. One simple detail that stands out is the yellow contrast stitching, which is hard to find on the current denim market among the indigo/indigo and indigo/black style denims.
* Japan Blue's "skinny straight" denim fit is slim in the top block, has a low rise, runs slim in the leg, and tapers from the thigh to the leg opening.
* The fabric is a 14oz selvedge with both the warp and weft dyed to a pure dark indigo. The fabric is woven at a very slow speed with a loose tension, which takes much more time to produce but will result in a fabric that becomes much softer with wear. The low tension weave creates a unique variation and irregularity in the surface texture of the denim.
* The warp and weft yarns are both rope dyed in the same pure indigo. With rope dying, the core of the yarn will remain white, thus after wear and some indigo loss, the core of the yarn will be exposed, showing the white. This will result in a high contrast fade as the white core of the yarn is exposed behind the super dark pure indigo surface.
* Japan Blue signature blue inseam
* Bronze buttons and rivets
* Yellow gold contrast stitching
* Custom Japan Blue + Blue Owl cowhide leather patch
* White selvedge with pink accent
* 100% cotton
* Made in Japan

* Size 28 (29" waist, 8.25" rise, 9.75" thigh, 7.15" knee, 6.4" leg opening)
