At Nudie Again
Recently, I took my Nudie Jeans back for a free repair, again. Part of their sustainability policy is to repair or replace of jeans if needed. Staying true to the heritage, the brand’s store is centered around a sewing machine. I bought these jeans in 2013. “Buy Better” to paraphrase Westwood. I paid 119 euros for one pair of jeans from the Scandanavian Ready to Wear label. I am not a fan of throw away clothing. There are cheaper jeans but I like purchasing pieces that last, more of an invest than buy.
Since that time they have become favorites returning them 3 times for a fast fixing. This time a worn hole in the pocket needed tending. A quick drop off at the counter, a collection number. The sales person told me to comeback in a week for pick up. It took a bit longer because the sewing machine broke down for several days.
My investment paid off over the years. I still get a return from wearing the jeans. The repair concept has been sold on my friends. They are considering buying pairs even if they cost more.
I plan on keeping these Nudie Jeans for a few more years. What happens when I cannot wear them any longer? Well, the company’s vintage jean trade in plan with a 20% discount offer for a new pair looks good.

Sexy Sustainable Fashion
Another follow up to a past story regarding Nudie Jeans I wrote a few years ago. The brand’s policy concerning sustainable fashion is not just a marketing strategy but a part of the Swedish label’s DNA. If a pair of jeans are torn or in need of mending the buyer can take them back to a repair center free of charge. I took my pair back to the store for second time to fix the rip in my pocket. After filling out the form the staff took the jeans back and politely said, “they will be ready in 3 weeks.”
I can honestly recommend buying pieces from this denim brand. I have not had any regrets in 4 years of wear. A good pair of denim are like a good charm. They give off a feeling of confidence, feeling good, looking great!

Black and Paper Pick
The reason I chose Lee Cooper Jeans is because of the Cooper Collection. Unlike other denim brands producing in Asia these looks are produced in East London by Blackhorse Lane Ateliers. During the Selvedge Fashion Tradeshow in Berlin I looked over a few pieces. The quality was impressive, making a pair a jean essential for every persons wardrobe. Creative Director Tilman Wrobel reached into brand’s factory work wear heritage to pull out strong masculine looks. Jeans are handmade from Italian denim. Added rich details include engraved zipper and pocket rivets 
for the 3 fits: slim, straight, and tapered for men and women.
