THE MEXICO JEAN

For Work & Recreation. Not for sale


An elegant local gentleman named Jan Zwetsloot visited the shop recently.

He came in because he had read about the Denham Garment Library and wanted to donate a pair of jeans and a denim tunic-top he'd obtained in Mexico in the 70's in his days with KLM.  After his visit we did a quick dig to remind ourselves about the whole groovy Tijuana vibe of the time .  It's a helluva sexy image, stylish steweardesses, lay-overs on the beach, a healthy glow and a cool pair of white 10oz selvedge bell bottoms (19" flare on a 15" knee) with a right-handed twill and a willingness to fade in the Tijuana sun.

See them now in the Denham Garment Library section of this site.

Thanks again Mr. Zwetsloot.
