For an avid cyclists, crotch blow-outs and accelerated wear are all too common of a problem. With that in mind, Selfedge, one of the leading denim shops in the world took into account the inadequacies of current denim related to cycling and created the all new SEXIH03 model with the help of Japanese denim makers Iron Heart. The end product is one that harbors both fashion and functionality. Some key elements of this design includes 21 oz sanforized Japanese denim, dark indigo stitched half arcuate pocket design, spring loaded clip metal key fob and a relaxed thigh fit with a super slim fit below the knees.
From a technical standpoint, the crotch cross stitched is placed 1" forward to ensure comfort and delay crotch blow-outs and rear pockets placed 0.75" towards the outer seam to avoid interfering with anything stored in the pockets (also sized to fit a mini U-Lock).
The SEXIH03 will go on sale in-store on Saturday, November 24th. Online sales will commence a week later on Saturday, December 1st. 125 pairs of indigo and 25 pairs of non-selvedge (SEXIH03BK) denim will be available, each priced at $360 USD with free worldwide shipping.
