- Black denim jeans are just about as important as a pair of blue jeans in a man's wardrobe. Let's look at 5 pairs of black selvedge denim jeans that are all amazing and each offer something a little bit different.

Firstly, thank you for putting this video together. May I recommend the Railcar Fine Goods Spikes in whatever black they offer. They make short to medium-run jeans in really interesting fabrics. The Spiles X057 Black grey weft is a really crunchy denim. Great fabric. Long wear in period but worth it. But the Spikes fit - high to med waist, slim, tapered leg is just a great fit - it's like a Levi 505 or LVC 1954 501 but with a button fly. Agree with your views on Orslow. Be nice to see you wearing all the jeans. Cheers.
Nailed it on the Orslow 107's. I love my iron hearts, but the orslow 107 is the pair. I can see myself wearing every day wearing to work haven't tried the black, but the fit truly feels vintage and modern.
Rogue Territory Stealth deserves to make any black selvedge denim list. Black warp, charcoal weft. Fades beautifully
agreed. Standard Issue, great cut.
I love mine too. Think it's only 11 Oz weight. Very comfortable.
I wish we had more Rouge Territory over here!
Any recommendations on breaking them in? I have a pair and I can’t break these guys in for anything! Super stiff. 🪦
@@PhantomofTheOctagon I personally don't subscribe to any break-in method other than wearing them often.
If you're going for high contrast fades, I'd wear em hard, wear them often, and put off washing for a few months. If you don't care about high contrast fades or you prioritize lifespan/longevity, I'd wear them for a couple of months then cold soak them. Cold soak will remove some of the starch and soften them up, perhaps at the expense of the highest contrast fading but prolonging the life of the denim. Not that you won't still get nice fades - ime and from what i've seen, an early soak just tends to soften the fades a bit since the denim isn't creasing as sharply. The sharp creasing helps with high contrast fades, but can cause earlier blowouts due to the friction.
TCB offer their 50's slim cut in black warp/ white weft on their website. I always thought there was something off with black warp/ white weft denim, and I think you're spot on when calling it a 'a little dated'.
Love that you are uploading much more often, yet still manage to keep the content very high quality. Thank you!
Thanks buddy. I appreciate the kind words. It’s really good fun and so far, always find things to talk about 😂
Phenomenal list and great video. I’d like to add Oni‘s Aizumi x Black Secret Denim as an honorable mention 😎 It’s based on their infamous Secret Denim, but the warp is Aizumi dyed (Indigo & Black) and the weft is died black (Sulphuric, I guess). I went for the 679, but they’re available in all common Oni cuts. The fabric is absolutely stunning!
Emil, that is a great call!
Great mention! Im wearing my Oni Aizumis as I’m watching this video haha!
From what I read about the Iron Heart overdye process basically everything they overdye starts out as a normal complete with garment with buttons and all, the only thing that is done afterwards is the leather patch is sewed on.
I’m glad you did a video on black selvedge. Thank you. I’ve recently bought a pair of matte black Thursday Captains (highly recommend them by the way) and I wondered about how black denim fades.
Levi's M&C have done this overdying method on some indigo selvedge. Colour is fab and you just know it going to fade beautifully.
Nice. Do they still do the hidden arcs?
@@CeeAreDee yes the Arcs are hidden on this model. Interestingly enough they 2nd dye seems to be black and sits almost like a resin and where it peels off the cotton thread is almost white or light blue. Model number is 531242 made (like all LS finishes) in Turkey. You can have it if you want it's too big for me (36-34).
I'm on day two of breaking in a pair of Mister Freedom Lot 64 jeans in Midnight Denim, which have a very dark indigo warp and a black weft very similar to the 3Sixteen shadow selvedge but just a little weightier at 16oz. Man, I love these jeans already and I can't wait to see how they develop.
Damn. They are gonna be super nice!
I own a pair of Levi's Rigid dragon 541 in Black. Warp is pure raw black and weft is standard gray/white. I also really love the mixture of yellow/orange stitching on that jeans because it really stands out way more than indigo color.
nice Saad, how are they fading?
@@CeeAreDee Those are still in brand new state. I rarely wear those as I am more of an indigo person. I used to think it was lost money until I saw your video. This was purely an accidental acquisition.
@@fluxus.virtutis what about now sir? Its been one year running
I had a solid pair of black selvedge APCs, but I grew out of them and sold them! just got some new APC Standard blue jeans so after I get some good use out of those i’ll probably find a good black selvedge!
Always love your videos. Just picked up a PBJ Black Selvedge. 12.5Oz Stretch for summer & work
Nice. Super good to see the old school guys getting into stretch. It’s just sensible at times.
@@CeeAreDee cant wait for it. for above 20 degrees and at work where i have to get on my knees alot i imagine its alot better than my 15.7 / 18 oz selvedges
I got the shadow selvedge because of this video. I was all about the tellason and as I was ordering them you got onto the shadow selvedge and I stopped and ordered those instead. Inky blue and black mixed? YES!!! So Im 2 months in and fading has started v well. Thanks
Hey man. Nice. Super good choice! Enjoy the fades!!!
@@CeeAreDee I'll tag you on insta
I just got a pair of black selvedge jeans from Nudie man they are beautiful. Best jeans I ever had I can honestly say that.
Nice. What kinda weight of denim?
@@CeeAreDee 13 oz. rigid Japanese selvage denim.
Faded black Levi's has always been my bread and butter but I'm super curious about bashing out some fades on these raw black Kato's - wish me luck!
Brave Star 21oz. double black are really nice.
Are they available again?
@@CeeAreDee They've been available for a couple months now. I haven't pulled the trigger >____
@@anthonydoan1991 I’ve been wanting to check them. But it’s too much of a dice roll with the international shipping 😟
Yes, they have them in Slim Strait and Slim Taper. Slim Taper are a really nice fit. Not as slim as most, to me anyway.
the Left Field Black Maria is the ultimate black jean IMHO
Antoine. Totally agree. Amazing jeans and you can tell by the fact they are always sold out 😂Wanted to include them but yeah, also wanted to give you guys a hint on something to pick up right away.
agreed. left field are definitely my favorite American denim brand.
I'm so glad I found your videos. You have helped me so much in just one day!
I got a steal of black easy guy Naked and famous, from Nordstrom Rack..... 47 bucks. Most comfortable denim. My go to pair is a 3 year old Matix Selvedge... and the nnf jeans broke in like no other. Now I’m dying to get blue.
Damn. That was a good deal!
Great video like always. Do you know the Paloma Schaeffer‘s Garment Hotel Jeans? What a beauty, but so expensive
Jay Kos has a black denim with white weft..super nice!
Gonna check them out!
I have the black Levi’s stf and the sugarcane 1947 in black. Both lovely blackxwhite
Managed to snag a pair of Bravestar's Japanese Black warp White weft 14oz, they are really cool looking. Yes they smell like sulfur. They have some great cross hatching to them. I've also got some double black 21oz and another 12.5 stretch double black. Everyone needs a black pair in their wardrobe. I will probably get in the future some Ironheart non-fade black.
Stretch double black is actually really practical. Have some myself.
Just got the Candiani Benzaks and they are beautiful 😭
Haha. Yeah. They almost made the list but there is a lot of Benzak on the channel at the moment 😂
@@CeeAreDee i know, that’s why I got them 😜
Idk if you have seen the "aquaman's jeans" video on Jason Momoa's channel. schaeffers garment hotel made a black overdye jean that Jason wore in "Road To Paloma", He shows his faded pair in the video. But it's very a very expensive jean being made in hollywood and all.
Love that shelf
From noodles noodles and noodles. Weird name but great stuff.
Can you go into why/when/how black denim is important in a man's wardrobe? Like, when/why would you wear black denim over dark indigo?
when you go to dominos
I’ve noticed within the past 9 years I haven’t really worn blue jeans. I’ve had a bunch of raw denim in high school, but now adays I tend to rock cargo pants or black jeans. Maybe my sense of fashion changed, but I do miss my first pair of 3sixteen 😢
great video! finding the right black denim is always a challenge for me.
IIRC, Iron Heart offers both OD (over dyed) and MB (mad black) process; the difference being once- and twice-dipped, respectively.
I’m gonna Check this out
Thank you for doing this I've been trying to find black denim. Oni secret bkbk have been out of stock T___T.
Yeah. The black denims seem to go fast!
i suggest left field nyc black marias. my greaser mitsui black marias are fading super quickly
I actually prefer black warp with white weft. It just looks more like denim to me. Black warp with black weft has less character and can almost look like chinos.
I also have the same opinion. I do own one black x black denim and wear that only when I am looking for super dark look.
But when they fade down, I just prefer the higher contrast.
@@CeeAreDee I just managed to find a BxW pair of Unbranded’s discontinued UB104 (new condition) on Poshmark in my size and ordered them. I might have to send them in to get hemmed to my size, but still very excited!
Have you had the chance to get your hands on any of the "gunpowder" black from Indigofera? It's a rope dye made from actual gunpowder constituents (charcoal, salpetre and sulfur) made to achieve some interesting grey tone fades. I visited their HQ last autumn and got myself a pair of "buck" jeans in gunpowder and I really enjoy them! They even had the smell of gunpowder for quite some time, which I found quite nice.
Ah for sure. Just shot a worn pair for Burg and Schild. Amazing denim.
Grey jeans are nice too
Always thought of grey for chinos or more tailored pants.
I'm trying to break in my black s301 Iron Hearts. Lots of hard work. The 21 oz denim is trying to break me. Lol. Slim fits can be a bit challenging.
In that heavy denim. For sure! Keep going tho
Gustin has a black with white weft right now for like $90... Looks more like grey and yeah a little 90's ish😃
90s are in at the moment. so no bad thing!
I just got brave star double black denim 21oz. This sucker is stuff on the first week of wearing it.
21 oz will be a beast to break in
@@CeeAreDee It is. I can't squat down to pick anything I drop for awhile. hahaha.
Civilianaire makes a black with white weft I have a pair. Idk if they make them still but they used to at least
need to check them out!
I have the first type of denims u mentioned
Nice!
Great vid. Just getting in to denim so very useful. Would be great to see a black denim jacket review. I have been searching and think I may go with the cryptic RGT supply jacket. Not a huge trucker pocket fan. Any other options you could suggest? Also, from a silly amount of research I really like the 21oz red weft unbranded jeans. Are these like unicorns now? Not seen any for sale. Lastly, what's the consensus on second hand denim? Part of me thinks it's a little grim but the other part thinks the cost of a true Selvedge outfit (denim tux) plus maybe a well made flannel adds up to over £500 quite easily. Then you add the red wings and you are up to £1,000 for one outfit.
Thought I saw some black Oni denim with a white weft... But not sure at this moment. Maybe it was Tanuki or PBJ.
I’ll have a look. Maybe it was a small run
Nudie makes great black selvage jeans, available in a few of their cuts I belive
You’re right! Are the selvedge tho?
I managed to get a pair of 3sixteen ST 220x (Meadow collaboration) on eBay new for a bargain. Looking forward to breaking them in but would love a pair of the shadow selvedge!
The shadow selvedge is amazing but the double black is also sick!
Free note cloth Wilkes, black, 14.25 or their 17 ounce are great jeans
I have a pair of blackxwhite selvage denim from Gustin it is model#77. The fabric is 13.25oz and it is from cone mills. I dont know when they will run this fabric again but i picked them up for a steal at 79 USD.
Damn. They is a super good price.
Great subject. Black denim is more puzzling to me than indigo. I own several pair of black jeans. PBJ, Iron Heart, Brave Star, Left Field, Oni and a couple of jackets by Japan Blue and Indigofera. I can't say that I have a favorite. They all have a unique merit. I wear the Indigofera shirt jacket (copeland) a lot. The Oni jeans are a high-rise taper made from loose weave 20oz denim that has a hairy, matte finish. They're very comfortable in terms of fit. The Left Field is a Chinese (black/black) fabric that has surprisingly nice character. My Iron Hearts and PBJs are slimmer fitting so I'm wearing them less because I'm liking roomier cuts lately.
Duke, that’s a great collection! The IF gunpowder denim is amazing, you’re right. Also the Black Maria form left field almost made it on to the list. But they are sold out in most sizes. Testimony to the quality. How are the oni’s fading?
@@CeeAreDee Thanks Matt. Yes, the Black Maria. That's it. They're really better than you might expect. The Oni is the 902ZR-BK. It's not really fading so much. It just has a pleasant, soft texture. It's different from the others mentioned. btw...I have several Oni jeans and a jacket so I was curious to wear their black denim. My fave Oni right now is the 602 (Blue/Blue) ...it's really beautiful denim and not like secret denim. It's very smooth, not slubby textured. Fading nicely.
hi, nice video,it helps a lot,
what about this samurai jeans s710nbkii 17ozclor fast black, can anyone say some things
Am i weird in that i dont like or want any of my denim to fade even in the slightest?
Japan blue 316J
Also amazing!
Bravestar 21.5oz double black
Haha, too heavy for my legs!
Are Double RL jeans any Good, been eying a pair for like 6 months but having other options that you mentioned here.
RRL do a decent job. The fits are on point and the denim is decent. Can’t say anything against them.
Do you recommend the same initial soak process for a brand new pair of raw selvedge black denim Vs indigo dyed?
Yeah. I’d say all denim could do with a soak. They weaving process is very similar and there will be some things in there to get rid of.
@@CeeAreDee appreciate it!
Hi. Are any of these brands I can get in a waist size if 26 that you know of?
Don’t think so. As far as I know 28 is the smallest.
All my black selvage pants smelled like firecrackers haha
That’s the sulphur dye. 😂
Motostars gang
Great video! Do you have any thoughts on Indigofera gunpowder jeans?
Great jeans. Great fit. We’re almost in the Tellason spot but the straight fit of the Bleubalau just works for me.
Hey, great video and also great content. I was about to suggest Indigofera's black selvedge jeans, then I saw the previous comment. I was wondering, do you have any thoughts on making videos reviewing so e Indigofera garments? All the best, Viktor
New to selvage denim here, starting off with Iron Heart 634s Indigo and Indigofera Gunpowder Clint. I liking how the 21oz IHs are settling in. My first impression's on the Clint's is that they have a pretty tight weave, and that the dye will fade and contrast pretty quick, curious to see how it goes.
Sugarcane 1947 in black on the way
I don't wash my black jeans until they start to smell lol and after washing them they never look the same so I buy new ones.
Really. I’m kinda digging the washed out black denim these days.
@@CeeAreDee yeah I have an extreme dislike for faded black denim, unless they're designed that way or it's a denim jacket where I appreciate the washed out look a lot more. But you have definitely put me on to Iron Heart and 3Sixteen brands for sure. Thanks!
FULLCOUNT’s black jeans have white weft
6 months since youre last upload. Whats up with that? Miss your videos!
Hey man, can no longer get the Denim Balm......can you please help?
You can have what’s left in mine. I don’t use it much anymore and there is a little left. Or write to Sander. Maybe he’s got some in stock.
Thx, but my friend in amsterdam already wrote them only to know that all stock is gone... Can you please send me Sander’s contact? or how can I get the leftover from you. Million thx.
@@jwong8248 I guess it was sander who wrote you back. He’s a one man band. Where are you based?
@@CeeAreDee I am in Hong Kong... Only recently obsessed in raw denim... Wish me luck... Even planning to get one from the Swiss Jeans Freak... Anyway, any chance I can get a box of denim balm?? Appreciate your help.
full count makes black denim rope dyed warp with white weft.
Nice!
Is there any denim that fades “fast”?
Try these. Made to fade fast. benzakdenimdevelopers.com/collections/jeans/products/b-01-slim-special-3-14-oz-recycled-super-fade-selvedge?variant=32059488895091&ktk=UEdKczZRLWNiOWNhMWQwMzdl&tap_a=23949-a716b9&tap_s=788040-80a7f5
Oni secret denim?
Yip. Sure good one. I’ve never had my hands on it actually. Need to change that.
Favorite pair I own.
Can you wash new raw denim
For sure. Just make sure that you turn them inside out. And not hotter than 40 degrees. Gentle wash and detergent for dark clothing.
Thanks
Why should they be blue? Lol
Hebtrco 177
?
@@CeeAreDee shockoe jeans?
i would say gray jeans is more important than black
Grey always seems more towards the chino or tailored pants b
Nothing fades like the 3Sixteen Shadow Selvedge. Absolutely epic.
