Black denim has a remarkable talent for making even the most ordinary outfit seem as though somebody thought about it beforehand. We would not like to exaggerate this achievement, but it is worth noting.

Our Stevie has a high rise and a close, skinny fit, made from Japanese denim blended with cotton, rayon, and a little stretch for comfort and recovery. It is garment-washed and finished with tonal stitching, five pockets, and the expected belt loops and fly.

A properly useful jean, without the fuss of pretending it is anything else.

We are rather fond of clothes that do the thinking for you.
