COTTLE’s straight-leg jeans in C.T.L. selvedge denim, a fabric that took about three years to develop. The 11.3oz cloth is 91% organic cotton and 9% linen. Cotton nep yarn and thick linen yarn are twisted into the weft to keep a hand-woven character, which makes the denim soft, airy and slightly stretchy. The body is woven on a shuttle loom, and the selvedge is reproduced on a jacquard loom, with its ID thread dyed in handmade bengara (Indian red). The jeans are washed in hot water and tumble dried. They have an old-fashioned straight leg, a button fly with cast pewter buttons, hidden rivets at the back pockets, a natural cowhide patch, and stitching modelled on 1960s jeans thread. Its golden brown softens toward pink and its orange brightens with wear.
