A true selvedge denim icon - this is the Cone Mills 1968. The most you can ask from a great selvedge denim is that it starts out beautiful and gets even better over time. As you can see from this well worn pair, the 1968 absolutely delivers.
Gustin jeans made from sanforized raw selvedge denim from Cone Mills. The 1968 was somewhat of a premium denim company darling. It was used by many and there's a reason for it. It sneaks up on you. It seems unassuming at first, but when you see the beautifully rich indigo shade and crisply starched raw feel you know you're touching classic quality. 20oz denim is cool. Super light denim is fun too. Let's face it, the 13.5oz sweet spot is a winner. It works year round and that's what you get in the 1968 - it has great body. We used this fabric as we were developing the skinny fit and knew we had to get our hands on more than just sample yardage. This is authentic, classic selvedge denim at its best.
This is the same style and quality that was sold in boutiques all over the country for $205+.
*Note unlike most brands we don't use vanity sizing for our pants. If you're a first time customer we highly recommend checking out our fit guide.

Customer Feedback on THE 1968
"They Look Great! Love The Feel, And Fit!"
-Matthew R. | Verified Buyer
"I love these jeans! The attention to detail with the red stitching in just the rights places and blue across the back pocket is really cool. I am not necessarily a slim build but I prefer the way the taper of that cut fits me. I was concerned when I first put them on as I didn't think I was going to be able to button them up, but as your website says they will be uncomfortable at first. I have been wearing them pretty much everyday for a week, and they feel great. I practically live in these jeans now. I love the natural color, but cant wait to see the fading over time. Amazing Jeans!"
-Tim B. | Verified Buyer
"Beautiful denim and top shelf build quality. I own (too) many pairs of US-made jeans and these are as good as any of them and are a stone bargain comparatively. I wish these guys offered a hemming service, as I am not a fan of cuffed jeans, but I seem to be in the minority on that one. Other than that, high marks all around. These are gorgeous!"
-George W. | Verified Buyer
"Great creasing after two weeks wear, I chose not to cuff, so a touch long for my liking. Quickly becoming my new favorite pair, however I’m a slim guy and I find the slim fit a bit tight in the hips/pockets, IPhone is definitely back pocket in these. I ordered my next pair in regular fit to see if they’re any better."
