Decent canvas (ok color, not particularly nice reflections) and good cut. Sometimes low-end selvedge.
Cheap, but often unpleasant surprises with indigo which runs a lot: be careful!

When it comes to artisanal selvedge denim, we don't mess around. So we went to get it locally, at Kurabo and Kuroki, in Okayama Prefecture, Japan.
We also have an ecological approach, with selvedge fabrics from Candiani, the cleanest spinning mill in the world, located in an Italian natural park.
And as for the washing, everything is done with ozone, to respect the canvas as much as nature and the craftsman.
