Description

Denim, but with distinct utility vibes, The Carpenter Jean is all about keeping things loose and low-key

In a relaxed, baggy fit—that’s extra baggy at the leg, it features utilitarian stitching and front panels, with slanted pockets, patch back pockets, and a zipper fly. Designed to be worn oversized, if you’re looking for a slightly less baggy fit, try sizing down. It’s made with a blend of organic cotton and our softest, lightest, non-stretch Refibra blend denim*.

Fit

  • High rise with relaxed fit through hip and thigh
  • Rise: 12.5", Inseam: 31", Leg opening: 22.75" (size 28)
  • Intended to be an oversized fit. For a slightly less baggy look, try sizing down.

Materials & Care

Materials:
  • 60% Organic Cotton, 40% TENCEL™ with REFIBRA™
Organic cotton uses crop rotation, cover crops, and organic fertilizers instead of toxic chemical fertilizers or pesticides—which means cleaner water, lower water usage, lower pesticide use, healthier soil, and a safer working environment for cotton farmers, compared to conventional cotton. TENCEL™ Lyocell with REFIBRA™ technology has the softness, strength, and lower environmental impact of TENCEL™ Lyocell, while incorporating recycled materials. A man-made cellulosic material that uses both upcycled cotton textiles (up to 33%) as well as FSC-certified, sustainably sourced wood pulp, it boasts reduced water and energy usage (compared to conventional cotton) with the added benefit of circularity.
Care:
  • Turn Inside Out., Machine Wash Cold with Like Colors. Only Non-Chlorine Bleach When Needed. Tumble Dry Low. Warm Iron When Needed.

Details

  • Made at Phong Phu International Joint Stock Company in Vietnam.

The Cleanest Denim You'll Find.

Conventional denim production is dirty business and we’re on a mission to clean it up. Here's how we're doing it differently—and why that matters for you.

Better Is Our Starting Point

Better denim starts with better materials. We prioritize certified organic and regenerative cotton — a tiny share of the world's supply — grown with less water and healthier soil practices. That same intention carries through to production: state-of-the-art factories that recycle up to 98% of their water, using ozone washing, air drying, and renewable energy to reduce water and energy use by design.

The Only Toxic We Appreciate Is the Song

We work with mills and wash houses that have verifiably reduced chemical use, moving away from harmful treatments common in conventional denim. Our partners are independently tested against leading safer chemistry standards like bluesign, OEKO-TEX Standard 100, and ZDHC — not self-reported claims. Fewer chemicals in your jeans, safer conditions for the people who make them, and lower environmental impact.

Measured, Not Marketing

We don't guess at environmental impact — we verify it. Using Jeanologia's EIM, the industry benchmark standard for environmental denim wash impact, 96% of our washes score low to medium — meaning significantly less water, energy, and chemicals than conventional denim.

Can't Have Quality Without Standards

Our denim fabric is rigorously third-party tested multiple times from development through pre-production — verifying durability, consistency, and performance across fabric weight, tear strength, and color fastness. The result: denim built to get better with age, with more years in your wardrobe and fewer replacements.

Reviews

Excellent fit for hourglass

"These jeans are amazing and I hope this style comes back again with replenished sizes. They fit and flatter the small waist with wider hip body type better than I’ve found in a long time. I sized down to 26 from 27 and I was so pleasantly surprised, I bought another one exactly the same. Thank you for making this style available!"

BUY THEM, size down

"THE BEST JEANS. So cute and comfortable. I normally wear a size 27 in jeans but sized down to a 26. They fit perfectly through the thighs for my athletic build but were still loose on the waist. Brought them to a tailor to bring in the waist. The extra step with the tailor was so worth it because these jeans are 10/10. I am 5''6" and the length just skims the ground with platform boots & sneakers."

Megan S. (5/5)

"Fit is great and I do love the pants and will be getting full use out of them. The only thing that kinda made me sad was that the color if the jeans didnt really turn out like the photo"

Rushda (3/5)

Great for tall girls

"These are fantastic jeans! I sized down (usually a 27 or 28 and got a 26) and they fit high waisted and comfortable. I’m 5’10” and these are the PERFECT length for me, hitting barely at the top of my foot. Short girlies may be swimming in them. I also appreciate that for a looser jean, they still have structure and feel put together- very effortlessly cool. I can wear them to work, out with friends, anywhere. Truly my new fave!"

Jenna C. (5/5)

LOVE them (!) and they’re a bit too long

"These pants fit so well, as so many everlane pants fit, though I wear them less because I have to wear heeled boots with them. They drag otherwise, a look/feel that was fine when I was 16, less so now that I’m nearly 50 😝"

Danielle H. (5/5)

Too small

"Too tight, not baggy at all in the thigh. I got my usual size and it fits skin tight :( can’t return. Unfortunate because I love the colour and style."

Jessica M. (3/5)

Fantastic fit and detail

"Love these jeans! I love an “unusual” pant or jean. With the elongated pocket detail and wide legs, these fit the bill. These are super high-rise—think 2019 over the belly button high. I needed to lay down to zip them. Once up and on they warmed to my body and stretched to fit it exactly and are *very* comfortable. If you are familiar with the Big Bud Press work pants, these fit similarly on the top. They are a little long on my 5’4” frame; they just skim the floor with shoes on."

Jennifer S. (5/5)

Obsessed

"These were on my wishlist for ages. Finally took the plunge with the winter sale and I have zero regrets. I'm 5'1 and had to get them hemmed a good amount, but that's nothing new for me. They run quite large, so I'm glad I sized down. I'm usually a 24 with madewell & Levi's, but even the 23 in these have a little room (they're not too big though). Very pleased!"

Lindsey J. (5/5)

Really Like -- could be better sizing

"I could have sized down. The denim stretches after my initial perfect fit, so now they are more baggy than I hoped. The pockets are fab, and I love that the patch goes beyond the side seam. Quite flattering with the long diagonal pocket lines. Everlane - please add proper inseam sizing in inches. Maybe we can get a few inseam sizes? I would pay more to be confident shopping online on inseam sizing. I am usually a 31 inseam and these are just a tad short for my taste, or maybe tall girls are just destine to have short pants forever."

The Carpenter Jean, Medium Blue

"I read what other people were saying and stayed with my usual size, could have gone down two sizes. They were on sale and I couldn’t return them."
