Undoubtedly one of our favorites - the almighty Lean Dean in stretchy, comfortable selvage denim, black and dry. Weighing in at 12.75 oz, the denim is nicely paired with the Dean's slim fit. The starch in the denim gives it its crisp appearance and, more importantly, generates pronounced creases on the jeans when worn - creating contrasting whiskers and honeycombs. lui-même denim is woven on old-school shuttle looms with yarns that have been dyed. The shuttle looms interweave the threads into the selvage denim, and the dyeing of the yarn maintains the core of the white threads, allowing the weave to fade beautifully - a slow process that reflects the way denim was made in those days. The finished denim has a light structure twill that is nicely balanced by a slight fuzziness that, with wear and washing, will accentuate in a perfectly imperfect way.
As with all our dry denims, we recommend a daily port for at least 6 months before premier washing to achieve contrasting fades. This is, of course, only a recommendation.
