Regular Straight Selvedge Denim

Our classic 14oz selvedge denim.

Made from the same denim as the Denim Works flagship model 711-0019: a custom denim woven with No. 6 warp yarn and No. 7 weft yarn and finished in a deep indigo.

Woven slowly on vintage looms, this selvedge denim is a rare fabric—only one bolt can be made every two days.

With selvedge denim now popular worldwide, it has become genuinely hard to source. Betty Smith is able to secure a stable supply by drawing on its home in Okayama, the heartland of Japanese denim.

Despite being a relatively heavy weight, it has a soft hand and develops beautiful fades with subtle slub and texture—a versatile pair that works for everything from daily wear to smart jacket styling.

The silhouette is slightly roomier than our standard slim straight.

Although the denim is sturdy and substantial, a curved waistband gives a clean, neat look around the waist.

Recommended if you want a wider silhouette than the 711-0019.

Made in Japan

About Hemming

We offer free hemming on selected bottoms.

If you would like hemming, please check the product details page,

review the measuring instructions and notes below, and enter your desired inseam length in the order notes field.

(Example)

Order notes

Please hem to an inseam of XX cm.

How to Measure the Inseam

Please prepare a pair of bottoms you own. Use a pair that has been worn and washed.

*If possible, use bottoms of the same type as the ones you plan to purchase.

STEP1

On a flat surface, align the center as shown and refold them so they lie flat.

STEP2

Lift the leg of the top layer and fold it as shown.

*Please do not pull too hard.

STEP3

I: Using a tape measure, measure from the crotch seam along the inseam down to the hem.

II: Start from the crotch seam on the side closer to the hem, aligning it with 0 cm.

III: Measure along the seam to the hem.

*When measuring, always follow the seam carefully.

*Hold the starting point firmly in place so it does not shift while measuring.

*Rulers tend to cause errors, so please always use a tape measure.

Tip

For customers requesting hemming on jeans with used or distressed finishes

For jeans with used or distressed finishing at the hem, as shown in the photo (before hemming),

if you only need about 2 cm shortened, we recommend leaving them uncut so you can keep enjoying the finish.

Hemming notes:

Hemmed items cannot be returned or exchanged.

Please check the length, size, and product carefully before ordering.

Please allow a tolerance of ±0.5 cm from your requested finished length.

Depending on the length cut, stitch marks from the original hem may remain.

Any finishing on the original hem will be lost when hemmed.

If you plan to wear the item rolled up, please

allow extra length for the roll-up when specifying your hem length.
