Slightly slimmer, straight model made of Zero+ denim. The silhouette is based on the S5000VX, but the inseam has been modified to be one inch deeper, and other aspects of the silhouette have also been tweaked for balance. The buttons used were newly created to mimic the color of "shakudo" metal with a well-worn black finish, which has been used for weapons and ornaments in Japan since ancient times. As the buttons are used, the luster settles down and a beautiful patina starts to appear, allowing you to enjoy changes in the look of the metal. The pocket bags are made of 8 oz. uneven thread denim, tougher than conventional fabrics. We plan to develop this as a semi-standard model in the future.

New "Zero+" line
“17oz Zero+ selvedge denim”
Both the warp and weft use uneven, high-twist #5 rough cotton yarn for stiffness. The dye is the darkest we've ever used, resulting in a deep black color. Only a limited number of shuttle looms can weave such thick and extremely slubby thread, and even then the machines require adjustments, customization, and a slow weaving speed to be able to get the job done. The end result is a denim with a deeper color and darker indigo look, while still retaining the unevenness and roughness of our beloved BUSHIDO denim.
