Denim Dreams for Father's Day

Father's Day is rolling around again, and it's time for another epic gift guide. This year, Father's Day is especially blessed, with Jupiter in an extremely happy place. And if you buy before Father's Day, your purchase will be even more auspicious, with Venus also hanging out with Jupiter and Mercury, in Cancer.

Enough with the astrology. This year, we are going to go category by category with these gift guides. Today: DOPE DENIM.

Here are some incredible picks for denim goods, for dad.

Sugar Cane Timeworn Inspired Denim Shirt (USD 377): A 1950s Western shirt fever dream in custom-developed denim with real shell snaps, a fitted waist, and that made-in-Japan stubbornness that only gets better when you stop babying it.

Freenote Cloth Sinclair LS Ivory (USD 360): Thirteen-ounce ivory selvedge with turquoise rope-rim snaps and sawtooth yokes, like a clean suit of armor for a man who still keeps a pocketknife on him.

Kapital 12oz MAGPIE Denim 3rd JKT Black x Black (USD 540): Jacquard denim that throws shadows like feathers, with intentional wounds baked in so nobody mistakes it for polite.

Carhartt W.I.P. Ruck Single Knee Pant Denim Blue Stone Washed (USD 140): Stone-washed 11.25oz Norco denim with contrast stitching, triple-stitch construction, and enough tool pockets to make you consider taking up woodworking.

Rogue Territory Cruiser Jacket Vintage Wash Indigo (USD 425): Stonewashed 15oz Japanese selvedge that shows up already broken-in, with selvedge-cut plackets and the kind of Los Angeles construction that feels like it was argued over for hours.

A.PRESSE 1st Type Denim Jacket One Wash (USD 686): A wartime 506XX idea cleaned up and sharpened, done in 13.5oz nep “Kibata” denim with a modern silhouette that sits right on the shoulders.

Weirloom WL-001 “Second Edition” (1,500 DKK): Straight-leg raw Candiani selvedge, cut and sewn in Portugal, made in a tiny run so it feels less like shopping and more like joining a small club.

Freenote Cloth Riders Jacket 15oz Unsinged Rinsed Denim (USD 495): The RJ-1 in rare denim form, built from 15oz unsinged Kaihara cloth with a slightly rough, thirsty surface that’s going to crease and fade like it has a personal problem.

Studio D’Artisan D4614 Futaai Denim Jacket (USD 450): A 1st-type cut in 16oz selvedge dyed with layered “two-indigo” technique, the sort of deep blue that looks almost ceremonial under daylight.

Sassafras Landscaper Grown Pants 8oz Denim Indigo (USD 312): Lightweight 8oz denim with overloaded patch pockets, tool loops, and doubled knees, basically a wearable argument for carrying too much stuff.

Fullcount 2102HWBIG Type 2 Denim Jacket Blue in Green Exclusive Fit, Indigo Dartford (USD 600): A roomier, slightly shorter Type II in 14oz Zimbabwe cotton selvedge with an exclusive leather patch, designed for high-rise jeans and long nights.

is-ness 5-Pocket Balloon Pants Indigo One Wash (USD 379): Ten-ounce denim cut into a balloon shape that tapers back down, like somebody turned classic five-pocket jeans into modern sculpture you can sit in.

Iron Heart 14oz Cotton/Linen Denim Type II Jacket Indigo (USD 450): A cleaner, slightly longer Type II in 14oz cotton-linen denim with a neppy texture and easier breathability, built for summer nights when heavy denim feels like punishment.
