Description
How does fashion intersect with the history of the African American diaspora? Well, that’s exactly what Tremaine Emory of DENIM TEARS explores in the label’s latest collab with Levi’s. Each piece tells the story of the Gullah Geechee people, descendants of Africans enslaved on plantations in the lower Atlantic states who were forced into the production of cotton and indigo. Reworked in leather, these straight-leg jeans are stamped with Emory’s signature cotton wreath logo, symbolising centuries of oppression while celebrating the community’s cultural preservation.| Levi's x DENIM TEARS leather jeans100% bovine leather; lining 100% polyesterButton and zip-fly fasteningRegular fit, mid-rise, straight leg, belt loops, five pockets, brand patch and tab at back, all-over paint print pattern, branded silver-toned hardwareSpecialist leather cleanSize UK 30: rise 12in / 31cm, inside leg 31in / 79.5cm, leg opening 16in / 41cmModel is 6ft 1in/1.85m and wears a size UK 30Midweight, non-stretch
