The silhouette of these jeans is loose with tapered legs, based off a pair of vintage LEVIS XX model. The size and stitching of each part are adjusted accordingly, with no changes to the waist or thigh width. However, the hips are slightly taken in for a more flattering fit. For added durability, a waist belt is sewn in one stroke, and the back pocket features a hidden bar fastening. The pocket opening is single-stitched and the coin pocket is adorned with selvedge "ears". The front opening is stitched in a V shape, replicating the vintage sewing techniques of the 1960s when backstitching was not available on sewing machines.

Important Note: Every denim product will lose colour. This is due to the special indigo dying process. After several washes, the losing of colour will be less and will stop over time. Some helpful advise:
- When washing, close the zipper and fasten all buttons and always turn the jeans inside out. Wash separately. When drying, hang the jeans (preferably in shade) inside out and let the jeans dry naturally.
- Pay attention when you sit on light surfaces.
- Be careful with wearing light clothes (i.e. underwear). Body warmth may cause denim to fade out.
