I've never quite understood the reluctance of some people to not bother with putting on a nice pair of jeans. You can see many a lad with a smart jacket, smart trainers (or shoes) yet in between he'll be wearing some bad fitting jeans, often by Blue Harbour or another budget brand. There's nothing wrong with Blue Harbour; it's good for the essentials, but I feel good denim is worth putting some money into as jeans can last for a very long time provided that you take care with them.
Selvedge denim appears to be all the rage at the minute. Everywhere you look brands are churning out their own range of selvedge denim – APC, Paul Smith, Studio D'Artisan etc.
I've opted for a pair of Dickie's Steel Selvedge Denim Jeans having been impressed with what I read and noticing a bargain price for them on the web.
The denim used is made from Zimbabwean cotton, which is regarded as some of the best out there while the selvedge denim is woven in Japan using vintage shuttle looms in order to provide a product with great aesthetics, longevity and feel.
Dickies never fails to impress me when it comes to their jeans. Very well-made and always have a vintage feel to them. Just last week, I got a few good deals for Dickies coats and jackets from an online store. I'd also check out their selvedge denim as well. Thanks, Jim!
