mù_ Unveils its First Processed Denim Creation
The men's apparel brand mù_ is set to debut its very first processed denim trousers, the "WIDE TAPERED DENIM TROUSERS / mù_lab.#007", available for order from June 12, 2026. This landmark release showcases the expertise of designer Kimura, who has spent over two decades honing his skills in processed denim, establishing himself as a true master in the field. While this area has always been a forte for the brand, Kimura chose to focus on crafting a distinct identity for mù_ during its inception, putting the release of this product on hold until now.
Concept: Blurring the Lines Between Real and Fake
The pants embody a striking concept that explores the nuanced boundary between wear and deliberate design. Combining the feel of denim that appears aged from years of wear (the
real) with ingeniously crafted design elements (the
fake), these trousers challenge traditional notions of what denim can be. Each pair is meticulously finished by skilled Japanese artisans, ensuring that every item reflects a unique character.
Product Features
The "WIDE TAPERED DENIM TROUSERS / mù_lab.#007" are fashioned from original denim spun on 1950s spinning machines, featuring a heavy ounce yet maintaining a soft drape. The fabric acquires a nuanced character through handcrafting, showcasing details like
whiskering,
honeycombs, and side fades that are traditionally challenging to replicate. Each processing technique tells a story - from repairs and paint splatters to embroidery and arrows - encapsulating the brand's philosophy and vision.
