Here's what you're buying.

The fabric, the make and the details.

The denim

#172 Cone Mills selvedge, 13.5oz, red selvedge ID, 100% cotton. Raw and sanforized: dark, crisp and starched out of the box. Heavy enough to break in with character, light enough to wear all year.

The make

Cut and sewn in California. Contrast stitching, button fly, custom Gustin hardware and a stamped brown leather patch.

The price

$149. We design it and sell it to you directly; there is no boutique markup in between.

Why it's $149

Boutique quality. True wholesale.

Gustin has designed premium menswear since 2005 and sold it through high-end boutiques from San Francisco to New York. Today we sell directly, mostly through crowdfunded runs that line up supply and demand, so we skip the warehouse and the retail markup and pass the savings on.

No vanity sizing. Read this before you order.

Most brands label a 34-inch waist as a 32. We use true measurements, so most customers order two waist sizes larger than their usual. Start there, then check a pair you own against our garment measurements in the fit guide.

Raw, 100% cotton, button fly: expect them to feel firm at first.
