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

Strange fit

"Everlane sizing in pants/ shorts is kind of all over the place. I am a 27/28 in pants size, and always go with a 26 in Everlane since they tend to run large. Reviews for these said to size up, but I stuck with my normal size and they make me look like I am wearing a diaper. Strange cut, not like other Wayhigh pants that I have multiple pairs of. Bummed they are final sale."

Cute summer denim shorts

"I snapped these up at 70% off because I thought 'why not'? I ordered my usual size, and I have about 5 pairs of Everlane jeans, all in 26. These are true to size but do have a waist gap while being snug around my butt and thighs. I can sit and walk and they're comfy enough, but I'm hoping they break in a bit more over time and become a bit softer and stretch out a tad, that would make them perfect. Would I be happy to pay full price for these? No. But on sale, they're great value."

Absolute shizzers. Not cool,Everlane. Not at all.

"I have three pairs of way high jeans, all 25. Bought these in 26 to be loose and comfy and they are a full size smaller than my jeans! At final sale, there’s a level of trust that they’re not so ridiculous they are unwearable. Really really annoyed. Not cool, Everlane. Not cool at all."

WAAAY TO SMALL

"I sized up as recommended and these short were still way too tight in the waist- nothing like the other high waisted everlane jeans I have purchased in the past. terrible"

Tiny

"I'm pretty reliably a 23 in Everlane bottoms but the waist on these is so small I can't even wear them unless I find a way to stretch it out about an inch. I'd return but they were final sale."
