Historically, the name is derived from the French phrase \"serge de Nîmes,\" which translates to \u003cstrong\u003e\"fabric from Nîmes.\"\u003c\/strong\u003e In this southern French city, the coarse fabric was originally produced for workwear before it began its worldwide rise to popularity in the 19th century thanks to Levi Strauss in the USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDenim is currently enjoying a real resurgence; it is \u003cstrong\u003ethe timeless color,\u003c\/strong\u003e the great development of the fabric, which gains a wonderful \"fading\" (signs of wear, patina) through being worn. For this, however, it should be raw denim. That is, an untreated denim fabric that has not been pre-washed or bleached.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIt is a close-knit scene that celebrates and lives the lifestyle of raw denim. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this, we have designed and created \u003cstrong\u003ethis exclusive belt.\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a piece of history and, above all, great craftsmanship that has gone into this belt. It is available with various \u003cstrong\u003e\"raw denim\"\u003c\/strong\u003e fabrics from Japan. \u003cstrong\u003eSelvedge denim and twill from Japan are considered worldwide to be the absolute gold standard of denim fabrics. \u003c\/strong\u003e The word \"selvedge\" is derived from \"self-edge.\" It describes denim that is woven slowly on traditional, old shuttle looms. This creates a closed, clean fabric edge that does not fray and is usually \u003cstrong\u003erecognizable by a colored inner thread (often red)\u003c\/strong\u003e when you roll up the jeans.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes the Japanese version so special?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c!--TgQPHd|||[[2,[null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,[351768,null,0]],[],null,1]]--\u003eWhile the American textile industry shifted to rapid mass production from the 1950s onwards, Japanese manufacturers bought up many of the old looms and perfected the craft. Regions like \u003cstrong\u003eKojima in Okayama\u003c\/strong\u003e thus became the global epicenter for high-end denim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis high-quality belt was crafted in 3 layers. \u003c\/strong\u003eFirst, a vegetable-tanned full-grain leather strap, 2mm thick and 3.9cm wide. The denim fabric was glued onto this, and the whole piece was then pressed into a mold to allow the final layer, the leather side strips, to be glued on straight. The adhesive is a natural starch-based glue intended only to fix the fabric and side strips in place.\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfterwards, everything was sewn together on our ADLER saddle stitching machine from 1928. The belt loop was made using the same principle and rounds off the design. \u003cstrong\u003eThe hole reinforcement\u003c\/strong\u003e was sewn by hand with waxed thread using a saddle stitch, which makes the seam incredibly stable and robust. Edges polished.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWe only use buckles or fasteners made of stainless steel for this belt!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vegetable-tanned leather \u003cstrong\u003ewas only lightly greased \u003c\/strong\u003eand will thus develop a \u003cstrong\u003ebeautiful patina\u003c\/strong\u003e over time that perfectly matches the denim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fabric used here is a 12.7oz (oz = English abbreviation for ounces!

It is not a selvedge denim, meaning the edge is open, which does not matter at all for our belts. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA companion for eternity and guaranteed NOT A MASS-PRODUCED PRODUCT!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kreativwerke","offers":[{"title":"29.5-31.5in","offer_id":57579320148308,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"80-85cm","offer_id":57579320181076,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"85-90cm","offer_id":57579320213844,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"90-95cm","offer_id":57579320246612,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"95-100 cm","offer_id":57579320279380,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100-105cm","offer_id":57579320312148,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"105-110cm","offer_id":57579320344916,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"110-115cm","offer_id":57579320377684,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"115-120cm","offer_id":57579320410452,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"120-125cm","offer_id":57579320443220,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"125-130cm","offer_id":57579320475988,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"130-135cm","offer_id":57579320508756,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"135-140cm","offer_id":57579320541524,"sku":null,"price":415.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/4320\/3156\/files\/20261007_132846.jpg?v=1791883829","url":"https:\/\/kreativwerke-cerny.de\/en\/products\/ledergurtel-denim-12oz-diamond-twill-kopie","provider":"Kreativwerke","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
