Denim
Few fabrics have as much history as denim. From the work overalls of American gold miners to today’s streetwear icon, it has lasted because it simply works. Tough, versatile, timeless. At JACK & JONES, you’ll find denim in many forms: jeans in every fit, jackets, shirts & shorts. Here’s what makes the fabric special & how to wear it in everyday life.
Why denim never goes out of style
Denim is a hard-wearing cotton fabric woven in a twill structure – the diagonal lines you see on the inside are the proof. The lengthwise yarns are dyed with indigo, while the crosswise yarns stay white. That creates the typical look that changes a little every time you wear it.
Few materials age as well. Creases at the knees, marks along the seams & washes that develop over time make every piece more individual. No other fabric says quite as much about the person wearing it, & that is part of the appeal.
Denim heritage: From workwear to lifestyle
Denim started out as a workwear fabric. Its durability made it the first choice for gold miners, cowboys & factory workers. In the 1950s it became a symbol of youth culture, with Marlon Brando & James Dean leading the way. In the 1990s, hip-hop made it its own. Today it is everywhere – at the office, at brunch & on stage. What has not changed is that denim is never just a fabric. It stands for something: tough, democratic & unpretentious, just as it always has.
