A true selvedge denim icon - this is the Cone Mills 1968. The most you can ask from a great selvedge denim is that it starts out beautiful and gets even better over time. As you can see from this well worn pair, the 1968 absolutely delivers.
Gustin jeans made from sanforized raw selvedge denim from Cone Mills. The 1968 was somewhat of a premium denim company darling. It was used by many and there's a reason for it. It sneaks up on you. It seems unassuming at first, but when you see the beautifully rich indigo shade and crisply starched raw feel you know you're touching classic quality. 20oz denim is cool. Super light denim is fun too. Let's face it, the 13.5oz sweet spot is a winner. It works year round and that's what you get in the 1968 - it has great body. We used this fabric as we were developing the skinny fit and knew we had to get our hands on more than just sample yardage. This is authentic, classic selvedge denim at its best.
This is the same style and quality that was sold in boutiques all over the country for $205+.
*Note unlike most brands we don't use vanity sizing for our pants. If you're a first time customer we highly recommend checking out our fit guide.

Customer Feedback on THE 1968
"I like my 1968s! I’ve been wearing them 7 months and still breaking them in (not washed yet) but I love the weight and fit. Can’t wait to see how they look as they age."
-Jeff T. | Verified Buyer
"Love these, but want them in BLACK PLEASE!?!"
-Kelly B. | Verified Buyer
"They Look Great! Love The Feel, And Fit!"
-Matthew R. | Verified Buyer
"Bang for buck these are a great pair of selvedge jeans added bonus they are USA made! My only complaint is the length I have selvedge jeans from other companies and I was able to order in my normal length, I’m 5’10 and I looked like a toddler wearing his dads jeans 🤣 had to take them to the tailor for a proper fit. All and all an excellent product I would recommend."
