Fit
B-04 RELAXED TAPERED is a relaxed fitting jean with a longer back rise, roomy thighs, and tapered legs. It has a tilted top block, which means there’s bigger than average difference between front and back rise. This allows for the jeans to sit comfortably on the hips, creating a relaxed and contemporary look and feel. The curved waistband makes sure the back rise fits nicely at the lower back, leaving no gap, while the front rise sits a bit lower than the natural waistline. The legs have a slight taper, but with a larger bottom hem opening than B-01 and B-03, resulting in an overall wider cut.
B-04 RELAXED TAPERED is the European equivalent of the ‘made in Japan’ BDD-710N (with some differences).
Fabric
We’ve dubbed our 15 oz. vintage indigo selvedge denim the ‘special #2’, as it’s the second proprietary BENZAK fabric to enter our main collection. The fabric is a 3x1 right hand twill construction, and the raw vintage indigo colour represents a shade of indigo used for denim during 1960s. We've developed the special #2 denim with thicker weft yarns than the warp yarns; usually this is the other way around. This gives the fabric an extra soft interior resulting in additional comfort from the get-go. The selvedge colours are ‘Azurri’ (blue) and ‘Oranje’ (orange). As well as being an aesthetic feature, the custom selvedge pays homage to both collaborating companies’ national sports colours, Italy & The Netherlands. It's also a nod towards the long-standing friendship between BENZAK and Candiani. This denim has been created exclusively for BENZAK by Candiani Denim in Robecchetto con Iduno, Italy, and is one of our core fabrics in the ‘European made’ line.
