Launched in 2015, 1822 Denim was built on the belief that denim should be fashion forward, accessible and backed by purpose. We decided to break the rules on traditional sizing methods and set out to create a new standard of inclusivity and sustainability. We’re more than just a brand — we’re a community of fashion pioneers, who believe it’s time to re-think the conversation around sizing, quality denim shouldn’t break the bank and every woman should have a pair of jeans that she feels confident in.
