Material Composition
70% cotton forms the structural base - providing the weight and feel expected of a real denim jean. The 23% lyocell is the differentiator in this blend: lyocell (sold commercially as Tencel by Lenzing AG) is a semi-synthetic fiber derived from wood pulp through a closed-loop solvent process. At nearly a quarter of the composition, it meaningfully contributes drape, softness, and a subtle sheen that cotton alone doesn't provide, while still supporting denim's structure. The 5% polyester adds shape retention through washing, and the 2% spandex contributes slight stretch at the waist and leg.
Construction Details
Mid rise waist with button and zip fly closure, belt loops, and gold-toned hardware visible at button and rivet points (image-inferred). Five-pocket design with functional slash pockets at the front and a coin pocket at the right front. Fitted through the hip and thigh, opening into a gradual flare beginning below the knee - a moderate flare silhouette, not extreme, with a full-length inseam at approximately 33 inches. The hem finishes with a raw frayed edge rather than a topstitched clean finish, adding texture at the bottom of the leg. Not lined; standard denim construction.

Care Instructions
Machine wash cold. Tumble dry low. Cold water washing helps preserve the dark wash depth and prevents the lyocell content from losing its drape through heat damage; low heat drying minimizes shrinkage and maintains the flare's shape integrity at the hem.
