The story

The No.01 is the jean Marlowe started with: a mid rise, room through the seat and thigh, and a dead-straight line from knee to hem that sits right over a work boot.

It is cut from 14.5 oz raw selvedge woven slowly on narrow shuttle looms, so the edge finishes itself in a clean red line at the outseam. Wear it hard and do not wash it for six months. The creases you make become the fades you keep.

Cloth & care

100% cotton raw selvedge, 14.5 oz, red-line self edge. Copper rivets, brass shank button, chain-stitched hem, bar-tacked stress points.

Wash rarely, cold and inside out. Hang dry. Expect up to 3% shrink on the first wash.

Runs large say reviewers

  • Runs large

    Size down if between

    Raw denim gives at the waist. I went down one and it is now exactly right. Great weight, great colour.

  • True to size

    Six months in, perfect fades

    Stiff for two weeks, then it moulded to me. Honeycombs behind the knee already. The free hem was done with a chain stitch, so it roped properly.
