That historic pair! Freewheelers do vintage better than vintage!
When it comes to the most 'OG' style of WWII style denim, the 1945 vintage Levis come to mind. During these times denim makers had to create with very few materials and resources. That is the inspiration for this pair.
This 14oz denim is specially developed by FW using long-fibred full-grain cotton with an uneven thickness woven with low tension, creating an amazing irregular look. This full-grain cotton is naturally oily, textured, unlike other cotton that requires treatments or processing. Its subtle vintage hue grand indigo dye will gradually fade to a brighter tone with some big contrast. The vertical texture will become strongly enhanced and bring back the vision of Levis during WWII, but with a more irregular atmosphere. The pocket bags are made up of some beautifully brushed heavyweight, thread dyed flannel fabric. Each time you access your pockets, you'll be greeted by some amazing comfort and durability!
Constructed with vintage machines, the over-dyed cotton threads are a classic yellowish mustard colour. The doughnut style waist and fly buttons have a classic look and will slowly oxidise to a vintage look. Of course, this pair features rivet back pockets for more durability which is a classic denim construction method.
