This waistpatch is made of deerskin, which looks like it got a little toasty when it was washed. In any case I’m not about to try and tear these jeans apart, so I suppose you have to take a risk on the elastane. That said, Oni claims that the way they put elastane in the denim increases the durability. A published in Fibres and Textiles in Eastern Europealso found that as the elastane increased the tensile strength decreased: going from 0.5 to 1.5 percent elastane made the tensile strength decrease by about 17 percent. Some fear that the elastane will give out and lose its shape. ![]() That said, it does have some potential downsides. That means that it drapes better than most thick denim but also it’s so stretchy that it legit feels like I’m wearing sweatpants, or at least they feel more like sweatpants than jeans, which is amazing. In fact, it feels buttery soft and - this is the kicker - stretchy, because it has 2 percent elastane. For reference, the average Levis are between 10 and 13 ounces and thus far, my heaviest jeans are my Studio d’Artisan D-003 Jeans at 15 ounces. If you can believe it, this is 20-ounce denim. You can see examples of this around the pockets. It’s not as easy to see the twill as it is in something like Naked and Famous, and Oni is known for this: low tension, fuzzy, knotty denim that has such a loose weave that the stitching sometimes disappears into it. ![]() Now, it’s pretty hairy, nappy, slubby kind of denim. Not everyone likes this greenishness, but I think it’s subtle enough that makes for a really cool pair of jeans - they pop, but they’re far from ostentatious. The weft is beige (technically “ecru” is the color) so the color will also get a bit more dusty colored as it ages. ![]() (This denim has a reputation for fading relatively fast as well.) That is because the denim is greencast, meaning it’s dyed with green sulfur and then indigo to produce this bluish green color that reportedly becomes more green as it ages. Llet’s start with the color this is a really vibrant blue that is almost a bit like teal or sea green. There is so much to talk about with this denim. Denim is greencast to produce sea green-like color.
