The Selvedge Studio Jacket combines traditional and progressive textile and apparel manufacturing processes, making this a case study in American craftsmanship for the 21st-century.
Its fabric, a specialty selvedge twill-denim, was developed in partnership with Tuscarora Mills in Pennsylvania. Founded in 2020 Tuscarora Mills is on a mission to revitalize textile production in Pennsylvania, utilizing vintage Draper Looms at the historic American Weaving Mills facility in Red Lion, PA. The materials that comprise this jacket’s fabric are a hemp grown in France and spun in Italy, and an organic cotton from the Texas Organic Growers Cooperative, spun in North Carolina. Both yarns are woven into the Best Made Company selvedge twill at Tuscarora Mills in Pennsylvania.
For the manufacturing of our Selvedge Studio Jacket, we commissioned Caroda Inc., a longstanding partner based in New York City's garment district. Founded in the 1980s by Ida and Duncan Law, Caroda uses vintage Union Special flat felled machines to create the signature denim stitch - two rows of stitching on folded fabric edges with a chain stitch inside. This technique ensures both a clean finish and maximum durability. The Selvedge Studio Jackets is finished with three Corozo buttons and a selvedge-edge locker loop.
This jacket's fabric is undyed, woven on 19th-century looms. As a result, it is not as uniform as fabrics made on faster, larger looms, and it has more character, depth, and charm.
The model is 5'11" and 190 lbs and wears a size medium.
