Goodfellow & Co. selvage jeans

If you’re looking for a quality pair of jeans at a low price, consider Goodfellow & Co.’s selvage jeans. These jeans feature custom buttons, branded copper rivets, nice herringbone twill cotton, and a cardboard belt line patch. These jeans are also very well stitched, with clean rear pockets, flat-felled inseams, and lockstitching.

Three basic fit options for Goodfellow & Co. selvage jeans are straight, slim, and slim-straight. You can also choose to trim down the inseam if you’d like a slimmer fit. These jeans are an excellent choice for everyday wear, and you can get a great fit by trimming them from the inseam.

While it might seem simple, selvage jeans have a rich history. The word selvage means “self-edge.” The term is derived from a way of finishing denim. Traditional shuttle looms produced closed edges to prevent cotton material from unraveling. These edges also made the fabric more robust and more rigid. Moreover, they create tiny irregularities in the fabric, giving it an artisanal look.

Shrinkage

You may be wondering why your Goodfellow Jeans keep shrinking after one wash. Cotton fibers, a significant ingredient in denim jeans, naturally shrink when washed. This is because cotton fibers are twisted, pulled, and stretched during manufacturing. All of these processes contribute to the shrinking process.

If you are looking for a pair of jeans that will last you a long time, you may consider purchasing a size up. You can also stretch the jeans to make them longer if you want. However, the denim material is not cheap and will shrink with heat and sunlight. Therefore, if you are worried that the Goodfellow Jeans you have will shrink after one wash, you may want to consider buying a size up from your usual size.

Compared to their competitors, Goodfellow & Co. jeans shrink less than other jeans at similar prices. The jeans feel slightly more premium than their cheaper competition, but they do not stretch much. In our tests, the jeans shrunk by about 2 1/2 inches across all measurements.

Price

Goodfellow jeans are not expensive, but they aren’t low, either. The denim is made with ninety-seven percent cotton and three percent spandex. The jeans are comfortable and look good. There are several styles and colors available. You can buy these jeans at Target.
