NEW Denim Fit Guide

Our fellow denim bloggers tipped us off to a new fit guide, found at eLuxury. Featuring specific guidelines for some of the best styles, from some of our favorite brands. Earlier this month, we suggested another way to find your best denim fit through Glam. Now there is no excuse for the wrong size...and no excuse not to buy another pair for the season!

Used Jeans

French denim brand, Used Jeans, has some fabulous things happening for Summer 2008. The line was relaunched in in 2002 after being founded over 20 years ago. The collection has recently been featured in Cosmopolitan, Glamour and Elle, strutting its stuff through the high-waisted wide legged 70's styles of the season. Used Jeans stands out with its range of bold colour choices and sharp silhouettes.  For more from the latest collection, www.usedjeans.fr

AG has introduced a revolutionary new wash technique that produces an authentic vintage look. The AG-ed process produces true 3-dimensional creases on the jeans, hand sanding and whiskering covering the snug silhouette. Another perk is that each jean i s customized to the consumers preferred year of wear! AG-ed is offered in 3 Years AG-ed, 6 Years AG-ed, 16 Years AG-ed and 25 Years AG-ed, however moving forward the collection will be offered in 1 - 30 Years AG-ed. The price range varies from $210 - $325.

A True Gentleman

We're always looking for a man who knows how to dress best in denim, so naturally we were intrigued when we saw this article in the UK's Telegraph. Drainpipes are for boys - men's jeans need pleats goes right along with all the buzz about the return of bespoke fashions in menswear. But, wait a minute, pleats? Yep, Acne Jeans does it right with The Gentleman's Jean. This aptly named style is high-waisted with subtle pleats and is a more comfortable fit than those tired old cigarette legs. Uh, hi, do you come here often?

The Future of Denim

This may not be the most practical pair of jeans that we've seen lately, but they are still pretty impressive. Designer Erik De Nijs has created the most technologically advanced denim to date. At first, you'll notice the obviously awkwardly placed keyboard! Next, you'll find the speakers built into the knees, so you can rock down the street without those white earphones.  And finally, there is the computer mouse in the back pocket . Go, go gadget denim!

[deener]

One of our new favorite denim brands is [deener]. Designed & finished in Los Angeles, CA with
custom-designed hardware from Argentina, [deener] offers high style and quality in craftsmanship.
Ya-el Torabati, [deener] designer and creator, was born in Jerusalem and raised in New Orleans, so each design has a unique influence from her cultures. The line’s name is somewhat inspired by a miniature dachshund named, Willard also known as, deener. For this season, some of the best denim can be found from this fresh faced brand, like the lightweight swing jacket, jumper shorts and a sassy wide leg trouser.

Ksubi Design

We love Ksubi denim, but now we have a new reason for our fandom. They have just won an Interior Design Award for their new store, The Bombed Mache. Created in part with Herbert & Mason architects, they formed a completely sustainable shop to house their latest collections. Working together, they were able to make a truly customized space with nearly eighty percent of the store being made from recycled materials. The Bombed Marche is still able to act as a temporary locale and art space, with the interiors constantly changing. This is more than a cool pop-up design store and Ksubi, as always, is ahead of the design game!
