I am interested in trying my first raw denim jeans and would like American-made jeans made from White Oak Cone Mills denim selvedge made on the old shuttle looms. I do not want a 'fashion' jean, just a classic straight leg dark indigo jean, basically like Levi's 505s.
I am not wanting jeans to look 'hip' or fashion-forward. Actually like basic retro-classic, traditional American jeans.
Just started reading about American-made denim and Cone Mills old shuttle looms and thought that would be neat as I grew up in a small southern town whose main employer was a denim mill for almost 90 years.
I would like to keep price as low as possible but realize this denim doesn't come cheap.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks
Jed
