With its Dirty Fade Selvedge denim, Naked & Famous Denim reimagines the classic selvedge jean by giving it a unique depth of color. Crafted from a 14.5oz Japanese denim woven from naturally brown cotton yarns and dyed with indigo, this fabric develops remarkable character over time.

Description
Founded in Montreal in 2008, Naked & Famous Denim quickly established itself as one of the leading names in contemporary denim thanks to its experimental approach to fabrics and its uncompromising commitment to quality. The brand develops its jeans using premium Japanese denim before manufacturing every pair in its Montreal workshop.
The Dirty Fade Selvedge is made from a 14.5oz Japanese selvedge denim, offering an ideal balance between structure, comfort, and long-term aging potential. Its Right Hand Twill weave provides a smooth surface, excellent durability, and allows the fabric to develop natural character as it ages.
What makes this denim truly unique is its dyeing process. The cotton yarns retain their naturally brown color before being rope-dyed with indigo, resulting in a richer, warmer shade of blue. As the indigo gradually wears away, the underlying brown tones are revealed, producing a vintage-inspired fade reminiscent of historic workwear denim.
Canadian craftsmanship completes the package with classic selvedge jean details, including reinforced chain stitching, a leather patch, silver-tone rivets and buttons, while the red selvedge ID reflects the heritage and attention to detail of traditional Japanese denim production.
Fit & Silhouette
The TrueGuy fit offers a modern interpretation of the classic straight-leg jean. Inspired by the timeless silhouettes of the 1950s and 1960s, it features a medium-to-high rise, generous room through the hips and thighs, and a straight leg from top to hem.
Less tapered than the WeirdGuy, the TrueGuy prioritizes comfort and ease of movement while maintaining a clean, structured silhouette. It is particularly well suited to heritage denim enthusiasts looking for a versatile everyday jean that pairs equally well with sneakers, boots, or more classic footwear.
Why we selected it
The TrueGuy Dirty Fade Selvedge perfectly reflects Naked & Famous Denim's philosophy: combining exceptional Japanese denim with fits designed for the modern wardrobe. Its timeless straight-leg silhouette and distinctive Dirty Fade fabric make it a pair of jeans built to age beautifully, developing a unique patina shaped by its wearer.
A jean designed for those seeking the authenticity of vintage denim combined with the comfort and versatility of a modern, long-lasting fit.
