Our Democratic Jeans in Natural Indigo Selvage are made right here in the USA by skilled craftsmen using the highest quality materials out there. Rather than relying on more popular synthetic dyes, each fiber is dipped in natural indigo and quickly withdrawn, leaving the interior of the yarn white while the outside of it takes on that beautiful blue hue. As that indigo cracks and breaks away from daily wear (and trust us, you’ll want to wear them daily), the undyed core will become exposed, creating a fade pattern that tells a story all your own. We hope it’s a wild one.
Indigo is one of the world’s oldest dyestuffs, with traces of it showing up in 4,000 year old Egyptian textiles. On top of being a natural stand-in for synthetic dyes, this indigo will yield highly dimensional fades the likes of which a lesser denim could only dream of. We’ve outfitted The Democratic Jean in Natural Indigo Selvage with our signature map print pocketing and custom YKK hardware that's built to last a lifetime—making these your new all around daily driver that’s well equipped to wear in, not out.
