This beautiful 3sixteen loomstate Shadow Kibata fabric now comes in this Narrow Tapered (NT-120xk) cut, featuring a roomier upper block with a very tapered leg from the knee on down. This 14oz denim has been pre-rinsed from the factory to eliminate shrinkage and to bring out some of the texture of the fabric. The denim is low tension and will feel much better to wear during the warmer months than some of the high tension, denser denim.
Note: Due to the pre-rinse from the factory, we recommend most folks size up one or two from their size in the ST cut. There will be minimal shrinkage and you can expect the waist to stretch 1-1.5" over time after the first 30 days. Because of the strong taper, folks with large calves should be advised that this cut may be a tad snug around your legs if you have larger calves. Cold wash and hang-dry.
Model: 6'0'' and 175 lbs, with (moderate) "lifter" thighs, wearing size 34 (one size up from my ST size of 33).
