Naked and Famous Denim

Proudly Canadian and based in Montreal. Naked and Famous denim is made from the most expensive denim in the world, offering styles for men and women. With prices starting at just $90, you get outstanding quality combined with a modern style that can be worn for many seasons to come. No rips, tears, embroidery or funky embellishments of any sort. I personally like the idea of the silk blend concept and I love, love the skinny girl cut/silk blend pair. Their website even features a denim 101 section (under denim school—coming soon) that will educate one on terms like selvedge denim. Below is a copy of their press release. Visit www.nakedandfamousdenim.com for more information.
Introducing Naked & Famous Denim: RARE & RAW
(Press Release)
Naked & Famous Denim is turning the denim market on its head. Over-accessorized jeans, conventional fabrics and unnecessary washes have made finding unique, thoughtful and straightforward quality jeans hard to find. Naked & Famous Denim uses rare materials, unprecedented fabrics and classic fits to stand out in a market saturated by garish gimmicks and celebrity “designers.”
Naked & Famous Denim uses only the most unique and rare denim fabrics straight from Japan. The prestigious mill in Japan, from which we import all of our fabric, is committed to producing only the best (and most covetable) denim in the world. Throughout each step in denim production, the mill uses a combination of old school technology and modern methods and practices. Incredible culture and history are poured into the fabric so that our jeans can be appreciated by the denim purist.
We keep all our jeans raw and simple. No washes, no embroidery, no gimmicks… just the best fabric in the world combined with modern fits. Now true denim heads and newcomers alike can enjoy these special fabrics at a surprisingly friendly price.
FABRIC & FIT
This year, Naked & Famous Denim is proud to release eight unique types of Japanese selvedge denim! Naked & Famous Denim stands alone in its commitment to producing such a great variety of authentic selvedge denim.
Together with the mill in Japan, we have also developed a unique fabric, which we call our Silk Denim. The Silk Denim is a blended fabric containing 30% silk. It’s soft, smooth and luxurious, even in its raw state. This extraordinary blend is exclusive to Naked & Famous Denim.
Our experienced pattern makers have exhausted our fit models and have created several classic yet modern fits for men and women. We offer three men’s fits (skinny, slim and tapered) and four ladies styles (skinny, slim, boot-cut and trouser-cut).
Every pair of Naked & Famous jeans is proudly and ethically made in Canada. We benefit from high-quality machinery, well-trained staff and quick reorder schedules.
