A relaxed full-length denim trouser with elasticized waist, hand pockets, faux fly, and mitred patch pocket (matching the Work Coat.) Finished, in denim tradition, with selvage outseams and chain-stitched hems. 

 

This custom developed 3x1 selvage is 10 ounces (medium weight) and has a crisp, sculptural body due to the bast-fibre fill. Each garment has been pre-laundered and air-dried for an easy, comfortable  feel.

 

Woven on a 33" vintage Draper Shuttle Loom, the weft is of a smooth, strong mill-surplus Hemp Yarn, and the warp is of Organic Upland Cotton grown by T.M.O.C.O., a cooperative of organic farmers in West Texas.  After the raw cotton is locally ginned (process of removing/ obtaining seeds) & carded (process of cleaning and webbing the fibres into a continuous form), the resulting soft sliver is spun into yarn by a mill in North Carolina- one of two small mills in the US that will spin organic cotton. The selvages of this denim are gilded with Brown Organic Foxfibre®, a naturally coloured cotton grown & bred at Viriditas  Farm, Northern California, by farmer/ scientist Sally Fox.

Each trouser is finished with a hand-chronicled label, tracing cotton's journey from farm-to-final-garment.
