MasterCraft Union Limited Edition Yoru Peinto in our straight Edo fit.

This hand-painted wash in shades of black, white and gold, on a deep blue denim base with a 3D finish, gives a well-worn, vintage painter-inspired feel. The embroidered gold circle on the wearer’s thigh is a mid 20th century vintage workwear detail, but it is a nod to Japan’s ‘circle of the sun’, symbolised in red on the Japanese flag. For MCU, it represents 100% made in Japan artisanal jean.

The fabric is a 13oz indigo selvedge denim woven on narrow looms by an expert local mill in Kojima.

The Edo fit is a comfortably relaxed jean with a straight leg profile, inspired by 1950s ‘anti fits’. This is the silhouette that once made jeans iconic.

It has a 11” regular rise and a leg opening of 15 ¾ ”.
