Distressed Boyfriend Jeans | Size 6

Sale Price: $62.50 Original Price: $125.00

These are a pair of light wash distressed boyfriend jeans with a relaxed fit through the hip and thigh, a mid-rise waist, and a straight leg that rolls beautifully at the ankle. They came to me already broken in, already soft, already carrying the kind of wear that makes denim worth keeping.

Three wide cyanotype panels run across the front: one spanning the upper thighs, one across the left knee — printed with ferns, wildflowers, clover, and foliage I foraged from my garden in northern Vermont. The left back pocket is fully sun-printed with climbing botanicals. The gingham bow at the waist is removable.

Printed using Jacquard SolarFast, a permanent, washable photographic dye developed specifically for natural fibers. Unlike traditional cyanotype, SolarFast is designed to survive the wash cycle — the dye bonds directly to the fabric at a molecular level when activated by UV light, making it significantly more colorfast than iron-based cyanotype processes. The botanicals were pressed directly onto the treated denim and exposed to sunlight — no screens, no transfers, no two prints alike.

Botanicals used: ferns, wildflowers, clover, and mixed foliage grown and foraged from my studio in northern Vermont

Care

SolarFast is durable but benefits from a little intention in the wash.

  • Wash as little as possible — spot clean when you can

  • Turn inside out before washing — washing machines often carry residue from other detergents that can affect the print

  • Hand wash in cold water with a phosphate-free liquid soap — Dr. Bronner's castile soap or Ecomax Natural work well

  • Avoid bleach, Oxiclean, borax, washing soda, powdered detergents, baking soda, or any washing salts

  • Air dry away from direct sunlight, or tumble alone on low heat

  • If fading occurs over time, a dilute hydrogen peroxide bath can usually restore the print to its original vibrancy

  • Handle printed areas with care — sweat and hand oils can cause gradual discoloration

Returns

All sales are final. Please refer to measurements carefully before purchasing — as a one-of-a-kind piece, exchanges for size are not possible. Minor signs of prior wear are part of the garment's history. If something is not correct or there are issues with the garment, please reach out to me!
