Return of Non-Stretch Denim

I’ve grown accustomed to the comfort of denim with a bit of stretch and it’s hard to imagine going back to 100% cotton jeans…but they look really good. The fade and wash on the above are about as true to worn and loved denim as I’ve seen in awhile. There’s also something to be said about the slightly more rigid fit of cotton denim that stretches and conforms to the body in a way that stretch denim has yet to perfect. Plus, on slim legged styles, the stiffness lends to a perfect turned up cuff if desired.
