About this pair
Read the full descriptionHide the full description
This is the fit to reach for if you spend your day in motion — on a bike, in a car, at a desk, then back out again. The extended back rise gives better coverage while sitting, and the seat is double reinforced where jeans usually give out first.
The denim is a 10oz triblend stretch: a ringspun cotton warp combined with a triblend stretch weft, 92% cotton, 7% polyester and 1% elastane. It holds its shape and gives where you need it. Expect nice fading after a few months, depending on how you wash them. Below the knee the leg runs slim. Details include a Horween leather patch, a YKK zipper and a gold leaf button.
Care: Wash cold and hang dry to keep the black dark and the stretch intact. Machine drying will speed up fading and shrink the leg slightly.
Sizing: Order your usual waist. The stretch weft means these relax a little through the day and come back after a wash, so there is no need to size up. We hem to your exact length for free before the jeans ship — give us your inseam at checkout and skip the tailor.

"Locomotion? Hell no, the reason people have legs is to slide them into these slick land cucumbers. Literally the best pants planet earth has ever created 11/10, would recommend over the miracle of life any day."

"The better "tailored fit" for athletic body type"
"I'm a fan of DB's tailored fit, but the commuter fit is much closer to how I imagine a "tailored fit". On my athletic build (tall, lanky cyclist with large thighs and longer inseam than waist circ), the tailored cut fits more like slim/skinny jeans with just enough room not to look like sausage links at the butcher. I like that fit, but I have to be careful about what boxers/briefs I wear to avoid seeing the seam lines. The commuter fit solves that without going too far toward a straight leg or regular fit. Its a true taper with room to move without stretch while never feeling like its draping off the body. The seam lines are a little odd, articulating the denim on each side of the knee joint to improve fit with bent legs, but not visually noticeable on the black wash.
Ultimately these would be a great option for someone with an athletic butt and thighs to wear to work or even commute a few miles each way on a bike or scooter. I've worn them on a motorcycle, and the cut is good for that, but I'd prefer a pant with additional reinforcement panels for any kind of consistent on-road use.
So "commuter"? Not so much. Athletic Taper? Definitely.
Dearborn... if you ever wanted to collab with Klim or Revit to make a pair of motorcycle jeans that actually fit well AND include CE II Armor and kevlar, I'd be one very happy man."
