Tellason Ankara Straight Leg Jeans

Tellason constructs these jeans from heavyweight raw denim utilizing traditional Japanese selvedge construction. This type of denim is highly prized for its durability and the high-contrast fade patterns it develops over time as it molds to the wearer's body.

The Ankara Straight Leg Jeans feature distinctive Ankara wax print fabric accents located specifically at the yoke and pockets. This vibrant African-inspired textile adds a unique, colorful aesthetic that contrasts sharply with the dark indigo of the raw denim.

These jeans are made from raw (unwashed) denim, meaning they are stiff initially and will shrink if washed in hot water. It is highly recommended to soak them in cold water before hemming, and many owners go months without washing them to maximize creasing.

While the unique selvedge denim is woven in Japan, Tellason cuts and sews their jeans in San Francisco, California. This localized production ensures a high standard of craftsmanship rooted in classic American workwear traditions.
