VIDEO: in conversation with Simon Giuliani
As we have been expanding our range of offerings in the 13 oz. indigo eco selvedge fabric, it is important for us to communicate the reasons for its 'eco' label. To shed some light on this matter, we decided to consult the creators of the fabric itself. So, we hopped on a call and had a conversation with Simon Giuliani from Candiani Denim, who provided us with all the technical information about our most sustainable fabric.
SS23 | NEW SCOUT STYLES
Last season, we introduced the BWS-04 SCOUT OVERSHIRT to our collection. We initially used a 9.5 oz. military sateen twill fabric for this new shirt style. For the SS23 collection, we have added a new Japanese fabric called the 10 oz. tinted denim to the overshirt lineup. Besides this addition to an existing style, we’re also pleased to welcome a brand-new style to the collection, the BP-06 SCOUT PANTS.
JAPANESE ONE-WASH SELVEDGE DENIM
Comfort and an easy-to-wear mentality becomes more important every season, so with that in mind we’ve developed our take on this direction: the low tension one-wash 12 oz. RHT. This new fabric comes in two of our more generous fits: BDD-707 and BDD-710N. With its 12 oz. and low tension weave, this new Japanese fabric is essentially the lightweight version of our special #1 fabric. Low tension means...
SS23 | BWS-03 MILITARY OVERSHIRT
As part of the SS23 collection we’re releasing three new options in our BWS-03 MILITARY OVERSHIRT style. The first two options will be familiar for some, as they are an update of the previous version. We’ve decided to add handwarmer pockets to the design, after receiving some feedback and suggestions from friends and loyal customers. The inside of the pockets has...
VIDEO: in conversation with Bonne Reijn
Lennaert sat down with Bonne, the founder of his eponymous suit brand, to talk about our recent collaboration and how it came about. Since they're both Dutchmen, the conversation is in Dutch. But you can turn on the subs if you don't understand our silly little language ;-)
BONNE x BENZAK
We’ve teamed up with Bonne Suits to create a selvedge denim version of their classic workwear suit. This project has become a true collaboration, as we’ve mixed the design of their Bonne jackets with our jeans, using our special #2 fabric, woven exclusively for us by Candiani Denim. The jacket is based on the Bonne Suit double-breasted worker jacket. It is...
VIDEO: BWS-04 SCOUT OVERSHIRT
In this video we’ll guide you through a brand-new shirt silhouette, the BWS-04 SCOUT OVERSHIRT. It’s a versatile style that can both function as a shirt and jacket, depending on the season. The pattern is based on the BWS-03 MILITARY OVERSHIRT block, but with a couple of different design choices. For its debut, we have decided...
VIDEO: military twill chinos
The 10 oz. military twill chinos have been a popular non-denim option in our collection for quite some time now, therefore we’re completing the range for AW22. The fabric comes in three classic colours: golden brown, army green and sand, which take their inspiration from military workwear and vintage garments. The military twill fabric is available in two different cuts...
VIDEO: heavy slub 16 oz. RHT
Besides introducing new fabrics, we’re also big proponents in maintaining a strong core collection. For that reason, we’re reviewing the longest running fabric in our ‘made in Japan’ line: the heavy slub 16 oz. RHT. The fabric is in the heavier range of fabrics and is woven with slub yarns, hence the name ‘heavy slub’. Besides the slubby texture, the jeans are constructed using a....
OUR GUSSET TEE GETS A NEW COLOUR
The BT-06 lineup has received brown melee as a new colour option this autumn/winter season. It’s using the same 300 gsm heavy jersey fabric as the other already available colours and has both a front and back neck gusset, resulting in a very durable garment which is made to last. Due to the fabric weight and the spacious body....
BENZAK X SAMURAI JEANS FADING CONTEST WINNERS ANNOUNCED!
After a week of deliberating, reviewing, comparing, and discussing, we have narrowed it down to the top 10 of our BENZAK x Samurai Jeans fading contest. We had to make some tough choices, because there were way more than 10 submissions that looked absolutely stunning. Even though fades have been the main point of judging, engagement and...
VIDEO: 15.5 oz. RCI selvedge
We’ve very excited to introduce a brand-new fabric to the collection, the 15.5 oz. RCI selvedge. The name RCI stands for Robecchetto con Induno which is the place of conception of the Candiani Denim Mill. We think that the combination of weight, construction and indigo dye, make this a true classic denim fabric which will evolve into a bright blue colour over time.
