Jacob Cohën "Bard" Jeans – Grey

Grey denim is the underrated alternative to blue jeans: more sober, more urban, and it takes the off-duty edge off any outfit without looking stiff. On the "Bard", the wash lightens slightly at the knee and thigh — that gives depth without reading as an effect.

The cut is slim but not tight: straight through the leg, full length down to the shoe. Five pockets, classic rivets, the leather label at the back of the waistband — these trousers don't need any more signage than that.

If the length isn't quite right straight away: our tailor is on site on Kurfürstendamm and shortens it with the original hem.
