What to know about Benzak Denim Developers
Two production tiers, one label
The Made in Japan line sits above a more accessible EU line sewn in Portugal, so the same fits are available at two different price points.
Founded by a denim developer
Lennaert Nijgh worked as a denim product developer before starting the brand in 2013, and the collection is built around specific Japanese and European mill selvedge.
More than raw jeans
Alongside raw and one-wash selvedge in slim tapered to relaxed straight cuts, there are chinos, jackets, shirts, sweats, women's fits and organic and recycled eco-selvedge.
