This guide is for the discerning male who values premium denim that evolves with him. The key benefit is owning a pair of raw, selvedge jeans designed to develop a unique patina over time. A key caveat is that raw denim requires a patient break-in period and careful washing to maintain its integrity. These Stone Island jeans are crafted from 13oz Japanese selvedge denim, featuring a regular fit, button-fly, and five-pocket construction, complete with a subtle star embroidery and the iconic Stone Island Denim Research badge. Their unwashed, raw state means they will mould to your body and fade distinctively with wear.

Raw denim refers to denim that has not been washed, pre-shrunk, or treated after its production. This allows the fabric to develop a unique patina and fade pattern based on the wearer's habits.
It's generally recommended to wash raw denim as infrequently as possible, ideally after several months of wear or when significant dirt or odor accumulates. This preserves the denim's integrity and allows for distinctive fading.
Yes, raw denim can shrink when exposed to water, especially warm water. It is recommended to wash in cold water and air dry to control shrinkage. The fit will also evolve with wear.
Selvedge denim is made on narrow shuttle looms, which create a finished edge (the 'selvedge') that prevents fraying. This edge is often visible on the outseam of jeans and is a mark of quality denim.
Consistent wear is key. Avoid washing frequently. Create sharp creases by folding or sitting in ways that encourage wear in specific areas. The natural oils from your skin also contribute to the fade.
Yes, you can machine wash them on a cold, gentle cycle with minimal, pH-neutral detergent. However, hand washing is often preferred by denim enthusiasts to have more control over the process and minimize potential damage or uneven fading.
The Stone Island Denim Research badge signifies a specific collection or line focused on the innovation and study of denim. It represents the brand's commitment to exploring and advancing denim materials and treatments.
This is normal for raw denim. Continue wearing them regularly; they will soften and become more comfortable as they break in and mold to your body.
Fading is a natural part of raw denim. To encourage even wear, try to create different creases by sitting or folding them in various ways. Avoid washing too frequently.
In the initial stages, raw denim can bleed color. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored clothing or furniture, especially when the jeans are new or wet. Subsequent washes will reduce this tendency.
Raw denim can shrink, especially with hot water. Always use cold water for washing and air dry to minimize shrinkage. If shrinkage is significant, try stretching the damp denim.
As these are raw denim jeans, their care requires attention to preserve their unique characteristics.
