Samurai Jeans Kakishibu-Dyed 24 Oz. S5000KA – Just Released

About a month and a half ago, NYC denim shop Blue In Green released a very exclusive piece from Samurai Jeans, the S5000BKB Black x Black “Zero” Denim.

Unsurprisingly, both parties continue to not disappoint. Just over one week ago, the denim shop posted several new items from Samurai Jeans, most notably the electrifying and heavyweight S5000KA.

For this special denim, Samurai Jeans used an original 24 Oz. denim that has been hand-dyed with Kakishibu, an all natural dye fermented from the juice of unripe persimmions. Interestingly enough, according to Blue In Green, it’s the very first time a denim this heavy has been dyed with Kakishibu.
