Denimhead culture has its roots in menswear and most of our fans are men, but seeing dry selvedge denim worn this well is a good reminder it’s for everyone.
The dry Lee 101 50s Western Shirt doesn’t change for who is wearing it. It will wear beautifully on anyone who gives it time.

Lee 101 is built the slow way. Japanese selvedge, woven on vintage looms in small runs, where every detail actually has a reason. It starts rigid, it softens with wear and it fades with you.
American workwear heritage, refined through Japanese craft. The kind of denim that earns its story over time and never REALLY ages.

Japanese selvedge denim, worn straight off the loom.
Our 101 R Relaxed fit has room through the leg and a proper rise.
No wash, no pre-fade, just indigo and time ahead of you.

When you wear a dry denim set like this, the fabric in that Japanese selvedge breaks in together. Creases start a conversation with each other, then slowly start to separate as the pieces take on their own lives. That’s where the character comes from…and we love the process.

Buddy Lee was created for shop windows and counters. A little guy dressed in real Lee workwear, showing people that this was a place you could buy it. Over time, he travelled. Collected, restored, and passed on. Especially in Japan, where workwear is preserved with care.
Buddy Lee survived. Not because he’s rare, but because workwear culture carried him forward and adopted him as one of their own.

Some people wear denim. Others study it, live it, protect it at all cost.
Our Japanese selvedge feels right at home in Raggedy Threads.

Spending the day at SAAB in Hiratsuka, Japan. What an experience!
A place where many Lee 101 jeans are sewn & finished.
A place where people live & breathe denim.
Watching the stitch work up close, you see the weight of the raw selvedge denim before it’s ever worn. You realise how much of it comes down to those expert hands & craftspeople.
No big show here, just quiet skill with a lifetime of expertise.
It's a different feeling when you know where your jeans started.

When you’ve worn them long enough, it stops being “a pair of jeans” and just becomes part of you.
For some, that goes a little further. Years of wear and a bit of ink to prove it 💙

A proper denim suit starts with Japanese selvedge and patience. Everything else comes later.
