The country of production is the United States or Turkey, where LVC has been engaged in sewing of many garments in the EU. It has been changed to Bulgaria. There are no areas of sewing that look particularly messy, and Bulgaria is also responsible for sewing for high end brands. Considering the fact that this is a certain country, I don't think there is any concern about the quality. By the way, the fabric is made in Kaihara, Japan.

outseam, selvedge
It's hard to tell from the photo, but the red ears are somewhat dull in color. If it fades with age, it will have a strong vintage look to it. The fact that there is little or no displacement at the hem seams makes it hard to say if it will have a bite to it that will make it swell.
fabric
The number of ounces of the fabric has not been released, but to the touch, it was used in 47501-0167. The difference in thickness between this fabric and the one made of corn denim is not so noticeable. The slubby feel is a bit weaker than the one made of corn denim. However, the same was true for the most recent cone denim fabric. The texture of the material is likely to feel quite different after the glue is removed. If you look at the back side of the fabric, you can see a few small neps. The color is dark blue with a gray tint.
