Kato by Hiroshi Kato Scissors Black Raw

Premium Japanese 4-Way Stretch Selvedge denim story starts in Japan where Kato's fabric is developed at one of the oldest denim mills. They blend a unique 4 way stretch material with selvedge denim to create a specific amount of stretch and comfort you wouldn’t typically get with selvedge denim. This 360 degree of stretch gives the wearer comfort from every angle no matter what they are doing.

4-Way Stretch selvedge fabric is weaved using vintage shuttle looms. Rolls of denim fabric are then brought into our workshop in Los Angeles where each pair goes through a 60 to 90 day process of cut, sew, washing and testing.
