Self Edge and Iron Heart have come together to bring you the world’s first pair of jeans designed from the ground up for cyclists. It was only a matter of time, that somebody would take the needs of the cycling community into consideration on something as basic as denim.  Months of testing and analyzing where other jeans failed during extended use while cycling led to the creation of the SEXIH03 – to create a middle ground between fashion and functionality.  For those that enjoy artisan Japanese denim, cycling, and fashion these are the ultimate pair of jeans. Made in Japan from the world’s heaviest weight denim coming in at twenty-one ounces per square yard.
Special features on the denim include: Extra belt loops at the rear of the waistband to avoid torn loops from backpack usage and to prevent the pulling down of the waistband if a belt is worn while riding, spring loaded clip metal key fob hanging from front belt loop, reinforced crotch rivet, crotch cross-stitch moved 1” forward to delay crotch blow-outs and for the comfort of the rider, rear pockets sized to fit a mini U-Lock, higher rise in the back, lower rise in the front for maximum comfort and mobility and more.
Only 125 pairs of the selvedge indigo model and 25 of the non-selvedge black model were made. Both will be retailing for 360 USD. The SEXIH03 and SEXIH03BK will go on sale in-store on Saturday November 24th and will be available at www.selfedge.com on December 1st.
After the jump detailed images of both models.
