The Nudie Jeans brand was created by Swedish designer Maria Eriksson,who had previously worked for Lee, back in 2011. The brand is renowned for its denim washes and the label has chosen to use more expensive, selvedge denim from Japanese textile factories. If you love premium denim, Nudie jeans are for you!
Nudie jeans age very distinctively, the longer you wear the jeans, the more character and attitude they acquire. They can be shaped to your lifestyle and become like a second skin.
Nudie highlight the fact that their jeans should be ‘worn in’ for best results. This normally consists of wearing them every day for at least six months (before washing them) simply rubbing them with a damp cloth to remove stains or hanging out in damp weather to get rid of the smell – perfect jeans for a student! Nudie state that “If you wash the jeans too early, the indigo just bleeds out over the whole garment, producing an even, dark indigo colour”
They don’t only offer jeans but a way of thinking, which is fuelled by the traditions of denim and the characteristics of the fabric itself. All Nudie products are made from organic cotton and come in branded recycled paper packaging.
As well as the denim range Accent Clothing also offer the Nudie collection which includes long t-shirts and shirts, all made from soft vintage cotton.
Thin Finn and Big Bengt are both very popular sellers for Accent Clothing. Thin Finn is a tight fit with an extra low yoke and normal waist. The silhouette is similar to the 50’s carrot shape with the tight and narrow leg opening; they are worn low with a zip fly.
The Big Bengt are a regular-loose fitting jean with a higher waist and loose hip and waist. The narrow yoke give the back pockets a higher position. The leg is straight with a slim leg opening and button fly fastening. This style is often worn oversized.
