G-Star Ronic

Hi guys,
today I bought a pair of G-Star Ronic, straight cut, button-fly. At home I noticed that on each leg there is one seam that includes a red thread. The red thread is not part of the fabric, it's part of the, well, seam. Other than that it looks like the seams on my other denim, which I am sure are not selvadge.
So, now I'm wondering: have I unwittingly bought selvadge denim?

Kent,
thanks a lot. I don't think I have selvadge. But that's ok, didn't expect it when I bought anyway.
And next time I'm in France I'll be looking for some APC (don't want to order without trying it on). I have to say, although I am not a denimhead at all, lurking in this part of SF really makes me want to have my own raw denim... the pair from yesterday is just a cheap fix so that I have something to wear until I get the real thing.
