Quality Analysis 100/100
This denim is built for the long haul, featuring a substantial 14oz Japanese selvedge denim fabric and critical bartack reinforcements at stress points, ensuring it is truly "built to withstand the test of time." Further enhancing longevity are the custom branded button fly, rivets, and heavy-duty twill pocket bags, all designed to hold up to rigorous wear.
Comfort Assessment 60/100
The comfort score is based on the 100% cotton composition and the heavyweight 14oz denim, which suggests a rigid feel, though the fabric is noted to easily mold to the body over time.
Sustainability Impact 90/100
This garment is made from 100% cotton and manufactured in the USA, which are positive indicators for material composition and local production, respectively. However, without further details on the cotton's origin or the manufacturing processes, a comprehensive sustainability grade cannot be assigned.

Garment details

Imogene + Willie's flagship denim is a classic 14oz selvedge denim built to withstand the test of time. Made in partnership with the world-famous Kaihara Denim Mill of Japan, the fabric was designed as a nod to the deadstock Cone Mills denim that Matt and Carrie Eddmenson used for Imogene + WIllie's debut in 2009. The jeans sport a clean texture that easily molds to the body, a rich indigo color that is easy to dress up or down, and come detailed with tasteful minimalist branding in the form of the brand's signature "+" embroidery at the hip.
