Paying homage to the definitive post-WWII era of 1947, a widely regarded time as the golden standard for raw denim, when classic workwear transformed into timeless everyday style.
The Lot 47-15 is cut in a classic 1947 straight silhouette, offering a balanced, versatile fit through the leg that perfectly bridges historical authenticity with modern wearability.

Woven with weakened warp thread tension to create a slubby, rough texture, this kibata denim weighs in at 14.9oz raw and settles to a substantial 16oz post-wash.
