This is a heavy dark indigo comfort stretch denim. It is crisp and structured. We envision it sewn up into all your hardwearing makes. With ~10-15% crosswise stretch, it will give as you move and with 2% Elastane it will recover well to avoid bagging out. At 13oz, this heavier weight is better suited to structured patterns suitable for a stiffer fabric.
Raw denim; unwashed and untreated to ensure the longest longest possible lifespan for your beloved garment. It will 'patina' with time, visually telling its life story.
Please note that we cannot guarantee the product colour as each monitor and device represents colours differently. If colour is important, please contact us for a swatch.

We recommend storing your denim rolled. If colour fastness is important, presoaking in a vinegar solution can help. We always recommend pre-washing/drying your fabric in the same manner as you intend to wash the finished garment.
For best garment care + longevity + sustainability we recommend:
Wash with cold + low spin + warm in the dryer + dry flat
