蓄勢待發許久的BDD以未預縮布料 (Loomstate)重現百年前的牛仔褲製程工法，於今年秋季推出全球限量60件的BDD-006 loomstate denim 15 oz. RHT。
現代牛仔褲的製作過程中，通常會使用預縮處理 (Sanforization)來減少布料下水後的縮率，作法是將織布放入預縮機當中，並以蒸汽使其收縮後，再送上輸送帶，經由一連串的滾輪拉伸並壓縮而成。
此外，絲光加工處理(mercerization)同樣必不可少，以高濃度燒鹼溶液浸泡布料後再將其洗去，此舉可讓布面更為光滑、平整。
BDD-006 loomstate denim 15 oz. RHT在製作過程中刻意跳過以上程序，選用老廠Collect Mills供應的原料，呈現極大的縮率、充滿毛絮感、凹凸紊亂的布料，強調牛仔褲初始的純粹，做工上同樣是細節拉滿，內口袋採用11oz的藍黑格紋布料，搭配獨特的植鞣牛皮標，鮮紅品牌名與牛頭骨的結合，光是皮標就很勾人。
尺寸選擇往往是未預縮布的一大痛點，由於縮率極大，經常會發生下水後太大或太小的慘劇，BDD對此貼心的提供原廠一洗，買回家就可以直接養起來，不必顧慮縮率問題。

FIT
The BDD-006 is a slim fitting silhouette with a modern low-rise, snug thighs and a consistent slim straight shape down the leg. Due to this, the BDD-006 is a versatile modernised slim fit suitable for the majority of body types.FABRIC
After a fabric is woven, before it’s cut & sewn into a new pair of jeans, it usually goes through a couple of processes like sanforization (pre-shrinking with steam) and mercerization (chemically removing of excess fibres), among others. Loomstate denim however does not undergo any of these processes; instead, the ‘state’ of the fabric will not be altered from how it rolls off the ‘loom’ – hence the term ‘loomstate’. Denim enthusiasts will consider this the purest form of denim because this is how denim was produced a century ago.Because buying the right size with unsanforized denim is usually very tricky and might require some trial & error, we have pre-washed the jeans in the factory, getting rid of the shrinkage. This means you will be able to enjoy the beautiful fabric structure and hairy surface of unsanforized denim, without having to worry about shrinkage and wear them fresh out of the box.
