Jump on the wide leg pant train with the Companion Denim Tom 01N ‘The Legacy’ jeans. Why? ‘Cos Wide leg pants are good. Without gloating, many of us in the Heddels crew have been rocking wider jeans for a while, now. And these days we’re spoilt for choice thanks to the change in trends. One small, superficial positive from the COVID disaster, was that the world woke up to comfy clothing. And wider jeans certainly fall into that category. Anyway, let’s take a look at these Companion jeans.
Companion’s Legacy jeans are a nod to denim of yesteryear: pre-1950s cuts that were wider, with a back-cinch. Made with 14 oz. sanforized Japanese selvedge denim, they’re absolutely packed with vintage denim details like; contrasting stitching in dual tan and yellow, chainstitched waistband, hidden rivet reinforcement, and a leather waist patch. There’s also Companion’s almond-shaped back pocket arcuates, chambray lining on the back pockets, and all-important back-cinch with YKK hardware.
Companion went crazy with the more modern details, too. Selvedge indigo hickory stripe fabric pocket bags, a key loop, and of course, the fit. Whilst being super roomy in the top block and knee areas, there is a fairly strong taper from the knee down that brings these heritage-inspired 5-pockets into the 21st century.
Each pair is cut, sewn, and finished by no more than 2 people in Companion’s workshop in Sabadell just outside of Barcelona.
