Material is very important when ordering a pair of custom jeans.  Please read the details that pertain to each fabric and make sure you know what you are ordering.

**Any material that says “unsanforized” means that it is loom-state and will shrink (5-10%). However, you can choose upon checkout if you would like the material to be preshrunk.  The rest of the materials are sanforized and should not have any problems with shrinkage (1-3%).

S&P short for “salt & pepper” is woven in France by an amazing small mill, Manufacture Metis. I has a decent weight for a dressier style pant or a lightweight work pant. Also available for shirts.

Tennyson (Brisbane Moss) 290g/m^2 9.3oz This material is very densely woven and is incredibly smooth to the touch.

I-191RD 13oz Sanforized – Beautifully subtle slub with a nice texture throughout. This material will crease and fade wonderfully without feeling too heavy or rough. I’ve had this material before and it’s great stuff!

I-190RD 12.8oz Unsanforized – Lots of character in this one while still maintaining a smooth feel. This material will be great to replicate a WWII era style garment. (except that the selvage is more red and defined, which isn’t a bad change)

I-189RD 13.5oz Unsanforized – This japanese denim has a beautifully light shade of indigo and has the “hairy” character that most people like. I’m imagining this be made into some nice type 1 jackets, or a 30’s repro denim.

i-154RD 13oz sanforized right hand twill. This denim has a lot of nep in a few colours, though the white fibers are easiest to see. The warp is made from your standard indigo rope dyed 100% cotton fibers, but the weft is made from cotton, acrylic, and polyester. This blend will make the weft look as if its woven with wool. The denim will fade just as any other denim will!

i-131G 13oz right hand twill – sanforized. This very dark indigo also has a “dirty” weft. It will produce some very yellowish fades. The shiny gold selvage is also a plus.

i-132RD 14.5oz right hand twill – sanforized. This denim has a “twisted weft” which basically means that the horizontal thread that is usually white is made up of two threads of different colours. This is a very loose weave, and that will make these a very easy wear.

This cone mills twill fabric is great! It’s a great weight for a light jacket or jeans, but who’s brave enough right? I’ve made lots of heavy shirts with this material.

G-603R 10 oz right hand twill. A very good option for a soft feeling, business style jean.

G-605RD 13oz This material has a lighter colour in person. It’s sanforized and has a nice amount of subtle slub. It would be perfect for a “dressed up” jean.

Rivets are a subtle way to bring out the colour in a pair of jeans.  Mind you, they are not mandatory.  You can have bar-tacks (straight or x’s) if you want.

The buttons that I use are nickel and toxic free.

The branded back cinche buckles were custom made for me by an artisan in Bangkok. The other ones are from YKK.

I use the finest leathers for all my patches. Treat your leather nicely and it will age beautifully. For all my vegan friends, pick the cloth patch.. I didn’t kill any cows.

I use a core-spun thread which has the fading properties of cotton with the strength of nylon.
