Product Description
Made In Japan

9oz Japanese SelvedgeThe terms selvage (US English) and selvedge (British English) are a corruption of ‘self-edge', and have been in use since the 16th century. Selvedge/Selvage is the term for the self-finished edges of the fabric. The selvedge keeps the fabric from unraveling or fraying and is a result of how the fabric is created. When it comes to denim, selvedge fabrics are created on a shuttle loom, the action of the shuttle being responsible for the finished edge. Selvedge fabric is largely considered to be superior to non-selvedge fabrics within the denim community, although this is not longer always the case. The quality of the cotton, the design of the fabric, the type of loom used and the skill of the weaver are the most important factors that affect the quality of the denim. A lack of these factors in the production of selvedge means that fabric with a selvedge ID can be of a mediocre or even poor quality. At the same time, fabric woven on projectile looms, with these factors present can be superior to other selvedge fabrics. Iron Heart produces a range of selvedge denims, chino and shirting fabrics woven on a variety of often vintage shuttle looms, by weavers with generations of experience, as well as premium quality non-selvedge fabrics.
