The Wilkes jeans take a modern approach to classic cowboy styling with a high rise and a comfortable thigh. Crafted from 14.25-ounce black/gray selvedge denim from Yoshiwa Mills, these jeans boast a slight taper and strong double flat-felled seams. Designed to fit true to size with minimal shrinkage, they feature custom rivets and a YKK zipper for added durability. Over time, the denim will develop unique fades, showcasing a subtle yet rewarding evolution in style.
From the brand: The Wilkes are Freenote's more modern take to a classic cowboy cut jean. With a high rise, comfortable thigh, and very slight taper to a leg opening big enough to fit a pair of boots under, they're an excellent cowboy twist on a classic tapered fit. The double flat felled seams on each leg add strength and longevity to the pants, while still maintaining the selvedge detail on the outseam.
This pair is sewn up from Yoshiwa Mills 14.25-Ounce black warp, grey weft selvedge denim. This fabric has a more matte appearance initially, though as the black and gray yarns fade at different rates, the denim will take on a slightly more shiny appearance, before finally fading to a cool gray all over. This process will be slow and subtle, but very rewarding.
The finishings are of an equal caliber, with custom copper rivets, a YKK fly zip, full grain leather Freenote flasher, and custom woven labels.
Fits true to size. Minimal shrinkage expected with a cold wash and hang dry.
