Japan Blue
J404 Classic Straight Selvedge Denim - 14.8oz
The J404 fits true to size. It is one of our most consistent sellers and the cut most people reach for when they want a straight leg that works without thinking too hard about it. The rise is generous enough to sit comfortably at the natural waist, the thigh has room to move without being loose, and the leg tracks straight to a clean hem. If you are between sizes, stay with your usual number. The best check is to measure a pair you already wear well and compare it against the numbers below.

How we measure
Every figure is taken with the jeans laid flat and smoothed out, read in centimetres.
- Waist
- Measured across the waistband from edge to edge at the top of the jeans. We then double that number.
- Front Rise
- Measured from the crotch to the top of the waistband at the front centre of the jeans.
- Rear Rise
- Measured from the crotch to the top of the waistband at the rear centre of the jeans.
- Thigh
- From just below the crotch seam. Measure directly across the thigh from edge to edge of the fabric.
- Hem
- Measured across the hem at the base of the leg.
- Inseam
- Measured from the crotch seam to the bottom of the hem following the seam along the inside of the leg.
