Learn more about our sustainably-crafted denim jean collection
AKYN denim is at once timeless and directional, rooted in our ethos of elevating wardrobe staples with our signature detailing. We've reinterpreted this workwear classic for effortless day-to-night dressing, with our signature brass hardware giving a subtle point of elevation.
Our sustainably-crafted denim jean collection features four fashion-forward silhouettes - Sol, Sol Straight, Blake and Dylan, offered in three versatile colourways - designed to seamlessly integrate into your everyday wardrobe rotation.
Behind each pair is our commitment to traceability and thoughtful sourcing. We've worked hard to trace and build a trusted supply chain and our jeans are all crafted in Europe from organic, recycled or regenerative cotton - denim that respects both the planet and the maker.
Each pair reflects our design philosophy of elevated craftsmanship - distinct, enduring and unmistakably AKYN.
Sustainable Cotton Fibre Story
BLACK REGENERATIVE COTTON DENIM
Our black denim has been crafted from 100% regenerative cotton, meaning that the cotton has been grown in a way that actively nurtures the soil and ecosystems to ensure the health of the land and the local communities.
UNDYED ECRU DENIM
Our ecru denim is made from either 100% organic cotton, grown and made into denim in Turkey, or a blend of 80% organic cotton, and 20% recycled cotton. Organic cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides, fertilisers, or GMOs, using farming methods that promote soil health and biodiversity.
To achieve the ecru colour, the cotton has been left undyed, meaning it is made using unbleached or unprocessed fibres that retain the natural colour of the raw fibre, avoiding harmful dyes & chemicals.
MID-WASH RECYCLED COTTON DENIM
Our mid-wash blue denim is crafted from 100% certified recycled cotton, made from pre-and-post-consumer cotton waste. The mid-wash was achieved through the use of OZONE treatment, which uses approximately 50% less water than conventional methods while significantly reducing energy use, chemicals, enzymes, and abrasives.
