The Flat Head / Naked & Famous: 14.5oz “Weird Guy”

Commemorating the recent opening of their Montreal denim boutique, Tate + Yoko, Naked & Famous aligns with fellow Japanese denim producer, The Flat Head, to offer a pair of meticulously crafted pre-shrunk selvedge denim jeans. Utilizing N&F’s “Weird Guy” silhouette, the fit is great for denim fanatics who love the styling of The Flat Head but have yet to see them with a slim, low-rise design like this. As for all models manufactured by the aforementioned denim supplier, the 14.5 oz denim was made in Japan on vintage machinery and features vertical fading, tonal or hidden stitching on the back pockets, and hidden iron and copper rivets. Unfortunately, only 50 units were made, so head over to either the Montreal-based shop Tate + Yoko or here to get your pair with a price tag of $285 USD.
