This pair of Lean Dean U.S. Selvage jeans by Nudie Jeans uses 100% American organic cotton and is made in San Francisco.
Nudie Jeans is a Swedish jeans company dedicated to producing sustainable denim apparel. For these Lean Dean jeans, Nudie Jeans collaborated with North Carolina-based American jeans company Cone Denim. The five-pocket U.S. selvage jeans are made from Texan cotton seed sown at Cone's White Oak Mill in Greensboro, North Carolina. The cotton is 100% organic. Once the organic cotton has been processed into denim, it's made into the Lean Dean jeans at San Francisco's last denim shop. The Lean Dean U.S. Selvage jeans will be released in a limited-edition run of 1,000 pairs.
Sustainability in apparel is very important to the modern-day consumer, and a local, artisanal production process is an added draw. These points of appeal converge in these Lean Dean jeans.
