Fortela’s JOHN 965-254 5-pocket blue denim jeans represent the continuity between decades-old tradition and present-day innovation, embodying the fusion of vintage esthetics with contemporary lines. With JOHN 965-254, Fortela founder Alessandro Squarzi sought to revisit the legendary Big E model, with the goal of updating this iconic design with a contemporary touch, while preserving all the original details and wash types that made those jeans famous. A distinctive element is the contrasting red-and-white selvedge detail, on both the cuffs and the button-fly closure. This touch of color adds refinement to the design and highlights Fortela’s attention to detail, enhancing the garment’s esthetics without compromising functionality. The regular fit with a mid-rise waist ensure comfort in any situation. The silhouette of JOHN 965-254 envelops the body without being restrictive, following a slightly slim line that gives these jeans a modern feel. The 33-inch length is well-suited for different heights, while the 20.5 cm cuff creates a clean, precise shape. The faded blue color of JOHN 965-254 lends these jeans a strong and refined character that rubs off on the wearer. This shade evolves over time, along a journey of personalization that follows the habits of whoever wears them, telling a unique story through the changes in the fabric. The details are crafted with care: the button fly features galvanized silver tack buttons that perfectly match the logoed rivets, and, of course, the five pockets include a coin pocket. The orange chain stitching along the waist seam and on the leather jacron is done with Union Special machines, a detail that not only strengthens the garment but also emphasizes its authenticity. Fortela’s JOHN 965-254 are for the confident, yet versatile man. Ideal when worn with a white shirt for a clean and sophisticated look, or paired with a blazer for a more elaborate outfit. To complete the look, try a red belt that complements the selvedge details. With JOHN 965-254, Fortela has created a pair of jeans that revisits a great classic, interpreting it in light of the winning combination of Japanese fabrics and Italian tailoring, making it an essential piece in the wardrobe of any man who appreciates history and uncompromising quality.
