Product Information
Full details
The Edwin Regular Tapered Jeans are designed for the modern adult male seeking a balance between classic Japanese denim aesthetics and contemporary comfort. Crafted from 12.5oz Kaihara Pure Indigo Openend Denim, these jeans provide a soft, fluid hand feel while maintaining a structured silhouette, making them an ideal choice for everyday wear. A notable caveat to consider is that the blue-rinsed fabric requires specific laundry care to preserve the depth of the indigo dye over time.

FAQs
What is the weight of the denim used?
These jeans are made from 12.5oz Kaihara Pure Indigo Openend Denim.
Are these jeans pre-shrunk?
Yes, the blue rinse process helps settle the fabric, though standard care should always be taken when washing to avoid unnecessary shrinking.
What does 'Regular Tapered' fit mean?
It means the jeans have a standard rise and roomier fit through the thigh that narrows significantly toward the leg opening.
Can I use a dryer for these jeans?
It is not recommended. Air drying is the best way to extend the lifespan of the denim and the integrity of the paper patch.
Is the material 100% cotton?
Yes, the construction utilizes high-quality cotton denim.
How do I identify if these are genuine Edwin jeans?
Check for the branded paper patch on the back and the consistent branding on the internal tags, specifically looking for the MPN (I035083-017K).
Troubleshooting
Indigo dye rubbing off on light-colored furniture
This is common with high-quality dyed denim. Wash the jeans once inside out before initial wear or avoid contact with white surfaces until the dye stabilizes.
Waistband feels slightly tight
Natural cotton denim may stretch slightly with repeated wear. Avoid aggressive stretching and allow the fabric to adapt to your body naturally over time.
Paper patch becoming worn
The paper patch is a natural, evolving element of the design. To preserve it, ensure you avoid direct scrubbing or heavy chemical exposure in that area during laundry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jeans maintain their fit and finish, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Wash inside out in cold water with similar colors to minimize indigo transfer. Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach.
- Drying: Air dry naturally by hanging them in a shaded area. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as it can damage the cotton fibers and the integrity of the paper patch.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Hanging by the belt loops is not recommended; use a proper trouser hanger instead to maintain the waistband structure.
- Sizing: These jeans follow standard UK waist sizing. Always refer to your exact waist measurement to ensure the proper fit of the 'Regular Tapered' profile.
