Description

Mid-waist, regular-fit jeans with a straight leg, made from a 15 oz., black selvedge made by Italian denim mill, Candiani. At 15 oz., this denim is tightly woven from ring-spun warp and weft yarns, with nicely balanced yarn slub and yarn twist. This gives the fabric character in its raw stage, and it develops extremely satisfying highs and lows with washing.

The latter is made evident as the weft - the yarn system visible on the inside - is dyed in indanthrene black sulfur dye, a sulfur dye that does not fade from wearing or washing - stayblack. The warp, however, is dyed in regular sulfur, but only the surface yarns, which makes the black fade faster than normal.

So what you get is a pair of fast-fading black selvedge jeans, which - thanks to that indanthrene-dyed weft - renders high contrasting fades. We have treated these jeans to a rinse to increase the surface texture and give them a dull black tone.

Given their faster fading nature, we recommend that these jeans are washed with care, avoiding potential friction issues from machine washing. Holding off washing for the initial six months of regular wear is a good guideline. When washing is due, a gentle rinse is better than a full wash, reducing any unwanted wash effects. If machine washing is preferred, opt for a delicate cycle with low spin and swift removal afterwards. Dampening the jeans before washing helps soften them and minimizes potential issues.

What is dry denim?

Dry denim, also referred to as "raw" denim or unwashed denim, refers to a pair of untreated denim, which means they have not been washed or bleached. So instead of creating a worn-in look at the laundry facility you break in these jeans yourself. It's a long-term commitment and the outcome will depend on how much you wear them. With time you'll get a personal pair of jeans with whiskers, honeycombs and fading created by your lifestyle.

Below are some tips and tricks to help you with your dry denim journey.

Prevent Dry Bleeding
Dry denim’s deep indigo dye often transfers onto other surfaces—this is called “bleeding.” To protect your shoes from unsightly stains you can:

  1. Cuff your jeans: Roll the hem to create a buffer between your denim and your shoes. This is especially helpful for lighter footwear like sneakers or tan leather boots.

  2. Duck Tape: Taping the inside of your jeans is an efficient solution to avoid dry bleeding. Remember to remove tape before washing!

The First Wash
One of the defining features of dry denim is the fade pattern that develops over time. To achieve sharp contrasts in high-wear areas (like knees and pockets):

  1. Wait at least 6 months before the first wash. This allows the fabric to soften and molds the fades to your unique movements.

  2. Spot clean instead of soaking: If your jeans get stained early on, use a damp cloth to dab away dirt without disrupting the indigo.

Size and Fit
Dry denim starts stiff but will stretch over time, molding to your body. When buying a pair, keep the shrinkage in length in mind. They will shrink when you wash them the first few times.
