Japan is world-famous for 'Osaka Five' factories that produce some of the most expensive and authentic vintage-style ジーンズ in the world.
Some Japanese denim purists avoid washing their ジーンズ for months or even years to create a unique 'honeycomb' pattern of creases behind the knees.
In Japanese, the word for 'pants' is often ズボン (zubon), which actually comes from the French word 'jupon'. However, when talking about denim specifically, people almost always stick to the English-derived ジーンズ.
