There’s nothing quite like a well-worn pair of jeans, so we took a vintage pair from the TS archives—complete with some awesome fades and a soft, lived-in texture—and recreated it with burly black selvage denim that’s been washed to simulate one year of heavy wear. Like all of our gear, The Democratic Jean in Black 1-Year Wash Selvage is built with earth-friendly materials and rugged construction that’ll withstand many years of use.

We built this iteration of The Democratic Jean with 15.5-oz. organic cotton—just as soft and versatile as conventional cotton, but a heck of a lot easier on the environment. Fans of our previous jeans know what to expect here: a finely tuned Democratic fit, peerless construction, and a handful of details (including custom YKK hardware and our signature leather patch at the waistband) for extra impact. As the name suggests, these have been washed for a lived-in texture, and they’ll only get better with time.

  • 15.5-oz. 100% organic cotton selvedge denim.
  • 5-oz. 100% organic cotton vintage SF map pocketing.
  • Washed for a vintage feel. Wash developed off a pair of vintage Taylor Stitch jeans.
  • Button fly.
  • Leather patch on backside of waistband.
  • Custom-developed YKK buttons and rivets to last you a lifetime.
  • Wash cold and tumble dry low.
  • Made in China.
