Our medium/high rise slim cut jean in 17oz natural indigo/organic cotton selvedge denim. This denim is very reluctant to give up its indigo. so takes a long time to fade, but when it does it fades with a lot of contrast.

Our Fabric Notes

This 17oz natural indigo denim offers a substantial feel with a slightly different tone and aging character compared to standard rope-dyed indigo. The fabric balances durability with a more nuanced color evolution as it wears in.

Our Fit Notes

The 555 is a slim straight cut with a relatively low to mid rise and a clean line through the leg. It fits closer through the thigh than Iron Heart’s classic straight cuts without feeling overly tapered. This is a good option if you prefer a sharper silhouette while still keeping a straight-leg profile.

Who This Is For

This cut suits those who want a modern, streamlined fit without going fully slim or tapered. A good option for those who want something slightly different from classic indigo while still retaining a mid-to-heavyweight denim feel.
