Akins Selvedge Jean

Jeans like they used to be. Cut in a straight leg with ultra high waist, the Akins Jeans are made in Blackburn, England, from a Japanese 100% organic cotton selvedge denim. The premium quality 13oz denim is woven specifically for us on traditional shuttle looms, and features our signature colours on the selvedge.

Wear with our soft, organic cotton Biscay Tee for an effortless, everyday style.

"5 Star - These are the best selvedge jeans I have ever bought.The quality of the denim is high,they are comfortable and the buttons are easy to undo and do up.They do shrink in length after the first wash but that's okay as I ordered the long length of 32". The price is amazing as selvedge jeans do usually command a very high price and I thought £150 was not bad for what they are, I wish I could afford 2 pairs." - Julie K.

Fabulous quality

These are beautifully made 100% denim selvedge jeans. The wholesome scent of the fabric itself reminds me of what jeans used to be like. And right up to your waist and enough room for your hips.

I love them - but I can't sign up to this "don't wash them" stuff. Yuk!

Sailor Ahoy

I’m madly in love with these jeans...! I wear them with huge turn-ups at the hem.. The waist is the perfect height, I ordered the 28 ins for a size 8/10.. I’m wearing them with Breton’s at the moment and I’ll be wearing Aran’s and Fairisle with them come winter, for that Land Girl look... The only slight negative is the dye rubbing off on everything, but should be ok after a few washes🤞

Great jeans but come up small!

These are really nice jeans and are very comfortable once you’ve worn them in, which doesn’t take long at all!

I’m giving 4 stars because they do come up on the small side - I’m normally comfortably a size 10 and have jeans with waist 27” that fit well, yet I had to order the 30” in these. I couldn’t get the 28” all the way up! It might have something to do with the high waist.

I think I’ll get a lot of wear out of these.

Jeans

These jeans have a mom fit

They are quite stiff but I’m assuming they will wear in quite soft

Really good quality denim
