Tanuki: A tapered fit with regular rise. Perfectly blended 4 different types of cotton: California cotton, Texas cotton and two types of Supima Cotton from New Mexico and Arizona. American cotton, in general, is characterized by being hard, rough and a little oily. It is the perfect cotton for a sturdy selvedge fabric. The weft yarn is reactively dyed light-beige by cheese dyeing. The warp yarn is rope-dyed with pure indigo, sulfur dye, and a green cast indigo dye. The idea was to get those earthy colors mixed in with the indigo to get multiple color layers which will show with wear -- and the blue, green and beige were perfect to represent Earth.
