The Fitted Underground W13 Standard Issue 13oz Organic Cotton Selvedge Denim is a high-rise relaxed fit inspired by classic denim silhouettes with an additional modern touch. The true straight-leg cut makes these great for wearing over boots while maintaining a timeless, versatile look. Made in their small Brooklyn workshop, these feature a 100% organic cotton selvedge denim with a notable cross-hatch appearance, produced due to the uneven yarns used on the warp and weft. These are an excellent lightweight pair to put your paces through in a relaxed manner.
Eric, owner of Fitted Underground, spares no details on his garments, with custom made waistband and fly buttons, heavyweight leather patches, and silk screened front pockets and waistbands, all of which feature homages to Brooklyn, New York.
Note: As these have a high rise and wide fit, we find these to generally run 1/2 to 1 size large. If you are on the slimmer end of your size or have a slim waistline, due to the high rise, you may want to size down one from your typical Japanese denim size. If you have a larger waistline or are on the larger end of your size, you can probably take the same size as you do in other Japanese denim for a comfortable fit. Please double check the posted measurements. These are sanforized, but not pre-rinsed. Expect minimal shrinkage with cold wash and hang dry. Any shrinkage with cold wash and hang dry should come back out (stretch) with wear.
Model: 6'0" and 175 lbs (currently closer to 165 lbs), wearing size 31 (one size down from his typical Japanese denim size) for a ever so slightly loose fit on the waist, but comfortable and does not feel like it would fall down. At model's 175 lbs weight, he would stick with size 31, but at his current weight he might size down to a 30 for a tight fit at first, but with stretching should fit nicely.
