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

Perfect straight leg jeans

"These pants are great. I’m on the shorter side, 5’4, and feel like straight leg jeans usually don’t sit right and make me look frumpy. But these jeans are the perfect length and the waist is very fitted so holds me in and looks flattering. When I first put them on the waist was pretty tight, but when you wear them they stretch a bit. I would definitely recommend these!"

— Michelle F. (5/5)

Surprised, Happy & Comfy!

"I'm actually surprised I like these. I was closing my eyes when I put these on anticipating them to fit awful (or not at all) b/c I've never had good luck with Everlane jeans. I just bought the Way-High Original back in Dec '25 and they were awful - way to baggy and strange looking. These are loose fitting, but in a fashionable and comfortable way, and in a way that makes my post-partum body want to wear jeans again. The rise is great (true high-rise - not cutting into the tummy), the fabric is soft but sturdy and the length is great for winter wear as well (not above the ankles). I am very please. 5'9" and 205 lbs."

Farbe washed out und Sitz sind traumhaft

"Ich habe die Jeans in der Farbe Washed Out in 31/ L bereits gekauft, sie sieht so toll aus. Macht schlank und ist weich und angenehm. Ich habe die längere Ausführung gewählt, da ich 167 cm groß bin und die Länge ideal ist, wenn sie nicht 7/8 sondern bis zum Knöchel reichen soll. Wiege 82 kg und trage gr 42/44. da die 31 gerade so passt(Gewicht schwankt) habe ich mir noch eine in 32L bestellt. Der Reißverschluss lässt sich nicht ganz so butterweich schließen wie bei den bisherigen Jeans von Everlane."

— Nina (5/5)

cool gray jeans

"I love them! they are comfy and look polish. . . I ordered 27 & 28, both are perfect, cant get it. I was thinking gray color'd be hard to wear but they actually look great with almost all my closet"

— Lourdes V. (5/5)

Great Fit

"The jeans were perfect, love the high wasted fit and front zipper. Prefer the zipper over the button up jeans."

— Roslyn B. (5/5)

Great As Usual

"Sizing is consistent which is wonderful. It’s painful to order jeans only to have them fit differently with each pair."

— Cynthia A. (5/5)

so disappointed, unflattering fit, sloppy

"so disappointed, unflattering fit, sloppy even with a belt. Waste of money :( Nothing like my first pair of way high jeans. Always count on companys to ruin a good thing."

— lisa (1/5)

"The way high 2.0 is my favorite Jean. I’m 5’9”, 150 lbs and thin but pear shaped and these are some of the only jeans I like. I needed the long as the regular were a little short on me."

— Katie (5/5)

"Perfect pair of jeans. Very comfortable and a great value for how nice they are. Ive paid well over $200 for jeans before and these are just as nice and a much better value!"

— Kristen (5/5)

Nice jeans, poor poor fit

"The construction and fabric were excellent, but the jeans did not fit my body. The waist was ok, but the hips and thighs were too loose"

— Julie B. (5/5)
