Product Details
Black is the pair that holds the cotton wreath sharpest and hides everyday wear, which is why it tends to be the first Denim Tears jean people reach for. Built on the Levi's 501, a straight leg based on a 1954 pattern with a mid rise and button fly. Putting a motif about American cotton onto the most recognisable jean ever made is the point rather than a licensing convenience. Production runs small here, which is a function of how the label works rather than manufactured scarcity.
Fit. Listed from S to XL, each mapped to a 501 waist. S is a 30, M a 32, L a 34 and XL a 36. The 501 runs true, so match your usual waist. Do not size up hoping for a looser leg, as the width is fixed by the pattern.
Styling. Chunky trainers or boots balance the straight leg.
Care. Wash as rarely as you can stand, cold and inside out. Every cycle strips indigo and softens the print, and the character in a good pair comes from wearing them rather than cleaning them.
