What to know about DUER

Jeans engineered like activewear

The core products are Performance Denim, All Weather Denim and No Sweat Pants: stretch and plant-based fibres, moisture-wicking finishes and gusseted seats for movement.

Built for commuting, not the gym

Despite the performance fabrics, the styling is plain and low-logo, aimed at travel, commuting and hiking rather than looking like workout clothing.

Denim veterans, Kickstarter start

Founded in Vancouver in 2013 by denim-industry veteran Gary Lenett with Abid Hafeez after years of stretch-fabric work; still founder-led with its own Canadian and US stores.
