Purple Core Selvedge

Purple Core Selvedge

The Purple Core Selvedge is latest in the colored-core series from Naked & Famous Denim. Rope-dyed indigo denim usually starts with a white yarn that is dipped into a dye bath and removed before the dye can permeate all the way through the yarn, leaving its core white. So, with time and wear, the indigo dye chips away to reveal the white core. Wearing away the indigo is what makes denim fade so beautifully. With the Purple Core Selvedge, however, that yarn is first permanently dyed purple before being dipping in indigo. So, on first glance, this fabric looks and feels like typical raw Japanese selvedge denim, but instead of fading to white, this denim will fade to purple. The purple selvedge ID is a preview of what’s to come, and the pull-up leather patch can be stretched to reveal rich tonal variation. Available in the following fits: Super Guy, Weird Guy, Easy Guy
