Listen, I love seersucker, ecru denim, and short-shorts, but my goodness it’s great to be writing about some heavyweight denim.
Benzak’s BDD-707 presents a high-rise, straight-fit concept, offering ample space around the seat and thigh while gently tapering down the leg, concluding with a mid-width hem. Crafted from heavy and slubby 16 oz. right-hand twill selvedge denim, sourced from Collect Mills, Benzak’s BDD-707 boasts substantial weight and features an irregular slubby yarn, making it ideal for achieving deep, distinctive fades and a comfortable feel post-break-in.
Despite their substantial weight, these jeans offer softness and flexibility after being worn and washed, resulting in a vintage-inspired, uneven fading pattern. Every detail on a Benzak product is meticulously executed, from the real brass button fly and rivets to the 8 oz. chambray pocket bags. The construction includes chainstitched and bartack-reinforced elements throughout, lapped overlock seams, and the use of seven different thread weights, resulting in a premium build. Whether you prefer your denim fresh or heavily worn, Benzak’s BDD-707 stands as a testament to craftsmanship, offering a durable and easy choice for all occasions.
Made in Japan, this edition of the BD-708 features a red selvedge ID, a hidden sixth pocket with selvedge line, and an embossed natural vegetable-tanned leather patch. It’s a Benzak beauty.
