The Sheffield was taken from our Ankara Straight Leg fit, and tapered from the knee down by 2 inches at the leg opening. Made with our proprietary Kaihara Japanese orange line raw selvage denim (sanforized). Button fly. Extra heavy pocket bags. Bottom of back pockets lined for durability. Leather patch by Tanner Goods, Portland, OR. Graduated inseams from 35.75" to 36.5". If you require a hem, please contact us directly after receiving your jeans.  Made in San Francisco, Calif. USA  

A NOTE FROM PETE & TONY

Design a piece of clothing and that shirt, jacket, or jean will age well, or will age poorly.

Sweat the details on the front end so when you are old and surly and combing through ancient pics of yourself, you see yourself in a pair of our jeans and you whisper in your own ear, "damn, not too bad".

Growing up in the 80's has me not saying this for a few photos, probably the result of dating this young lady that worked at Charlotte Russe. She convinced me that the Generra parachute pants and half shirt combo was the winning formula for 1985.

Ahh, the classics, the non regrettable. We work hard to fight the good fight to create fits that can pop into any decade and make you feel like a well dressed man. Enter the Sheffield jean. This was taken directly from our mid-rise, straight leg, Ankara. The adjustment was easy - from the knee down, taper it to the point where the leg opening is 1.25" narrower at the bottom.

Our 16.5 oz. selvedge denim is the burliest of the four fabrics that we make and as of now, we are well stocked. Grab yours today.

Enjoy and grazie 1000 for your support,

    Fit

    Posted by Clifford on 7th May 2022

    Great fit. I’m 6’4” at 220 and the fit was great. I’d like to do another review after I wash them. But I’ll tell you this … it will be me loosing weight before I stop wearing them if they shrink.

    Beautiful jeans but hemming/length is an issue

    Posted by Doug on 4th Oct 2021

    The construction and fit are beautiful but not being able to order the proper length is a deterrent to ordering another pair. I'm 5'11 and I wear a size 33 waist, but when the jeans arrived they were hemmed at an absurdly length. Rolling them up just looked silly. So I spent $20 to send them back across the country to be hemmed. I'm not sure why a jean of this waist size can't have a more reasonable length. And when you take 6 inches off of a tapered jean, you mess with the taper.

    Sheffield 16.5oz

    Posted by Colton on 25th May 2021

    Wore these for the first time two nights ago at an outdoor dance party in the Sierra Nevada foothills. I wasn’t restricted at all during many different movements! Somersaults, handstands, moving, and grooving. Very happy with these jeans. Cuffed them a bit and love the look. Thank you tellason! These are built to last. If you listen to the dead you may recall a verse “you can take a lot of wrecking, but you can’t take it all” these jeans may be able to take it all.

    Sheffield 16.5's

    Posted by Phil Medenbach on 3rd May 2021

    I just received my Sheffield 16.5's Straight Tapers this evening and wow what a great bit of denim. I'm no gym rat, but certainly no twiggy leg skinny jeans guy but this cut fits like a glove. Beautiful fabric and depth of Indigo color, I expect these things will take some break in time and energy, but even after a few hours of wear they're softening up nicely. Tellason has paid great attention to detail, from stitching to heavy front pocket material and plenty of pocket room better than some other makers at almost twice the cost. This is my first purchase from Tellason, and I'll happily support this American company again. Thanks, you guys... Whooee!

    Awesome Jeans

    Posted by Jeff on 21st Nov 2020

    This is my second pair of Sheffields and my second ever pair of raw denim but my first in this weight. I love it! It's only had a few wears so far but I can already tell they'll be my favorite once worn in.

    best fitting selvedge jeans in the market

    Posted by Gil on 7th Sep 2020

    i have tried over a dozen of US made selvedge jeans and nothing beats this one. I was extremely happy with the Anakara but these are even better. Was a little worried because usually not prefer tapered jeans. I got these on sale, my Ankara's are 14.5 oz and i really wanted to get a 16 oz pair so I took a leap of faith. The taper is super subtle and actually feels great. Recommend getting maybe 0.5" longer inseam than usual for a double cuff, the selvedge ID on the Kaihara fabric is insane good =)

    Even though this is heavy weight 16.5 oz, this jeans is very soft touch.
