Freenote Cloth introduces its new 12 Ounce Vintage Blue denim, a faithful recreation of a unique vintage pale blue selvedge fabric. After extensive research and trial, Freenote has perfected this shade, which likely originated from wartime dye shortages. The jeans feature American-made craftsmanship with a slim, slightly tapered Rios cut and high-quality details, offering a perfect fit with no shrinkage.

Introducing Freenote Cloth’s newest signature denim in broken twill: 12 Ounce Vintage Blue. Around 9 years ago, Freenote stumbled upon a vintage roll of selvedge with a unique pale blue color. Ever since, recreating “Old Blue” – the nickname given to the original roll of fabric – has been a passion project for the brand. At first, they tried to find the original manufacturer, so they approached the now defunct Cone Mills White Oak. Although they couldn’t find any records of making this particular denim, they did offer some insight into its origin. Like many products in wartime, dye is often a scarce commodity. They’ve never been able to pinpoint when the denim fabric was manufactured, but it is likely that the distinct pale blue color was an invention of necessity in the midst of wartime rationing. Matching this shade of blue was no easy task, but after 8 years of trial and error, Freenote finally has a faithful reproduction of “Old Blue.”
The construction of these jeans represents one of the finest examples of American-made denim you can find. It features double-needle outseam stitching, a two-piece waistband, a back yoke overlay, premium Japanese herringbone pocket bags, and some of the most beautifully crafted custom buttons we've ever seen.
Fit Notes: The iconic Rios cut is an excellent slim, yet not overly tight, straight cut with a slight taper. It offers a roomy top block and thigh, gently narrowing down the leg. This model tends to run a little bit big, so we recommend going one size down or staying true to size depending on your preferred fit. However, as always, we suggest taking a look at our size chart for the perfect fit. It is sanforized, so there will be no shrinkage.
