SELVEDGE DENIM FROM GINEW
CONTEMPORARY CONSTRUCTION
MADE IN USA + MENS & WOMENS SIZING

WHAT'S SPECIAL

The word selvedge is a consolidation of three words: self-finished-edge. It's self-finished so that either end of the material running horizontally (called weft yarns) 'finishes' itself. So instead of weaving a fraying edge that needs to be finished, selvedge denim is a special weave with the edge already finished. A bit nerdy but it makes for a superior jean - meant to be broken in for long-term wear. Our denim is made on the iconic Draper X3 looms by Vidalia Mills in Louisiana - USA. We think once you go selvedge...you'll never go back. WEAR WITH SPIRIT friends.

THE WEST FORK SELVEDGE JEAN
Medium Rise + Moderate Taper + Roomy Seat & Thigh

The importance of rivers. Flowing through our ancestral lands are rivers, each providing necessary elements for the sustainability of the community - water, food, transportation and leisure. The West Fork of the Red Cedar River is the heart of the Stockbridge-Munsee Indian Reservation and runs right through our family’s dwelling. WEAR WITH SPIRIT friends. 

The back pockets are half-lined not only for reinforcement but also contain a hidden Thunderbird Chainstitch embroidery which will only expose itself when worn and faded over time. Made in a Classic Tapered fit and constructed in the USA, the West Fork Jean is truly a versatile and functional American classic. Our raw selvedge denim is designed with the intricacies of our tribal designs on the custom branded hardware, printed pocket bags and hunted deerskin leather patch. SHOP THE WEST FORK SELVEDGE JEAN
