Crazy slanted zipper experiment as a fashion denim gender neutral statement.  Classic button down wrangler pocketing.  Degradation taken to extreme levels of focus onto the fly.

Fringing and fraying are interesting style features on back yokes, waists.  Together with fancy studding and side seam raw edging the look is distinctly western in flavour.

Tied waists; external buttons at the fly; frills and fun embroidery detail at the fly all add fun detailing to classic blue denim jeans.
