Bend Jean
A bowed-leg denim update that makes the seam path as visible as the wash.

Story & heritage
The Bend Jean appears in the official Jeans category and Classics edit, giving Eckhaus Latta a denim icon that is more sculptural than the straight wide-leg core.
Its bowed silhouette connects naturally to the label’s art-school history: the designers met at Rhode Island School of Design, where Mike Eckhaus studied sculpture and Zoe Latta studied textiles.
Materials & craft
The official Vintage Indigo page describes a mid-rise, loose-fit jean in 14oz cotton indigo denim, subtly overdyed for a rich blue finish.
Its defining details are a bowed leg, twisted side seams, signature EL back pockets and a 32-inch inseam across sizes 24–36.
How to choose & style
Let the curve show: cropped jackets, tucked tees and slim knits keep the twisted side seam visible.
Vintage Indigo is the cleanest version; Chalk and Scarab colourways push the same shape toward a more runway-styled denim look.
