Interesting to wake up to this technique having its moment.
I’ve been working with sprayed additives on denim to emulate leather for about 2 years now, here’s ones that’s ready to be seen.
For me it’s always been about control, texture, and how fabric behaves when you push it past what it’s meant to be; Turning nothing into something.

Ahead of the release of some denim & belts this week I’m going to talk a bit about it,,
The previous denim I had been making, although caught the eye, didn’t hold up to my standards of construction & longevity. I took some time out to develop the the factory @georgezverko & I have been working on for the last few months.
With this came new machinery & more efficient workflows. More dyed denim will be back soon but for this first release I wanted to create some staple denim with signature fit & made to the best standard I am capable of right now.
Please take a close look at the images to see what I’m talking about;
Triple stitch through out (the outside leg you don’t see often at all), taped seams, enclosed pocket bags & fly taping and covered zip. (Compare the images to a pair already in your wardrobes)
Anyway a full lookbook will be available on Friday along side the release.
Another point, this will all be made at our factory, so youll have the opportunity to come and pickup your orders & see for yourself where I make everything.
