Once the color has faded to this degree, even a simple outfit with a plain cut-and-sew top avoids feeling flat—these pants really take center stage. Pairing them with a short-sleeved T-shirt makes for a fresh, summery look. Of course, shorts are arguably the coolest option in the peak of summer, but not everyone is comfortable wearing them. For those who prefer to stick with full-length pants, having a pair that looks effortlessly stylish with just a T-shirt is incredibly useful.
By the way, the hemp used in this original Oblada denim fabric was carefully sourced from China by Oblada’s director, Someya-san. There are many types of hemp, but for a dense, weighty fabric like denim, the fiber needs to be thick and substantial—which makes suitable hemp varieties hard to come by. We learned more about this during Oblada’s recent event, and knowing that backstory only deepens our appreciation for the unique texture and presence of this material.
