Confused. You stated Japan’s first ever selvedge denim was made in 1964 by a “MUH ROO” ( Sorry googled “1964 Denim Japan” ) while posting a picture of Big John: a company that only came about a year after 1972 when KURABO - a textile company that failed at making Japan’s first selvedge raw denim about 8 times, till they didn’t, creating the KURABO KD 8 FROM THEIR M Series in 1972?
