RESTOCKING END OF OCTOBER 2024
STOCK ITEM.
Straight and wide leg with a nice high-waist. Complete with a patched 5-pocket construction, cinch back and zinc button-front fly. Inspired by early 1920s naval pants but cut just right for 100 years later.
Check the 2pc - pair it with our cropped pocket denim pullover
They've been eco-enzyme washed and then salt-water rinsed for a worn, more rolling sort of hand-feel. Kind of like that good old US navy denim, with a very-subtle neppy finish to the 14oz denim. The slightly softer finish gives a more trouser-like hang to them and lend themselves to be paired with loafers or trainers. -
SIZING
How to take your waist measurement – Due to the high-waisted fit of these jeans, a correct waist measurement should be taken in the same way as our trousers - however, taken from 2 inches / 5 cm above your belly-button/hip line. Use a tape and measure on your skin, applying a small amount of pressure to obtain a good reading. We ask for you to measure yourself and not rely on what size jeans or trousers you normally may take in other brands/fits as these sizes can vary. It can be a minefield to find the right jeans fit, so we've made it simple and the size that is listed is the size you'll get. Please check the size chart before ordering, taking into account how you might want to wear them: if simply with a t-shirt, stay at your size; if you plan to tuck sweaters into the waist you may want to size up. If in doubt stay at your size. I personally feel that after a couple of months of wearing these jeans they soften around the waist-line and give a little more.
Leg length - Naturally, we're all unique and so is our inside leg length, so you may find that upon receiving your jeans that you'll need to alter them to how you want to wear them. It's up to you: some people like a turn-up, some like a straight finished hem, some like to cut the hem and let the denim fray out - you do you! We are currently not offering a length alteration service on these jeans (please consult the size chart for leg lengths).
Washing suggestions - When you talk about washing denim there's many different schools of thought - some wash and some don't. If you do (we typically do every 4 months or so), be sure to wash them on a cool and delicate cycle, or soak them in a bath both at a temperature of 30/40 degrees. These jeans are already washed, so after washing yourself there will be minimal shrinkage, expect to see 1 to 2 cm shrinkage in the leg length, the waist will not shrink.
