Four lightweight jeans to get you through Summer
For many of us, the pursuit of the perfect fade is what drives our denim enthusiasm, but the process can be long, arduous, and unpredictable. While all denim breaks down gently over time, becoming softer and more malleable as we wear and wash them, today we have decided to celebrate some styles which are one step ahead of us. These masterful designers have brought us various Spring/Summer options, some faded, others using a lightly woven fabric, with an aim for us to breeze through the warmer months, without sacrificing our heritage credentials. So come with us as we take a closer look as to what the lighter side has to offer!
Breathable ecru style
Ecru denim has a naturally light quality to it, both in feel and image, and while this jean might measure up as a mid-weight, the laid-back vibe it gives offers the perfect complement to the Summer sun. Pair this jean with some broken in denim, or with a bold pop of colour to let its vibrancy shine through.
Perfectly soft fabric
With all the charm of a mid-century 501, this superbly broken in jean is a wardrobe workhorse. Vivid blues allow this model to blend with almost any casual look, and match well with sneakers, suede shoes, or loafers alike.
Lightweight indigo
Whoever said that 100% cotton selvedge denim has to be heavyweight?! FULLCOUNT’s new range of ‘Super Smooth’ 11.5 ounce denim has all the characteristics of their more rugged fabrics, but at a fraction of the weight, allowing you to adapt your Winter look into your Summer wardrobe.
Vintage inspired denim
The denim carpenter pant is often overlooked in the denim world, but this option from Lee offers casual style, authentic fading, and rugged durability, without the weight. This comfortable washed jean leans to the casual end of the spectrum, and go great with sneakers and work boots.
