A NOTE FROM PETE & TONY

This is an easy one to talk about, since I have been wearing this and its cousin, the Ankara, for about 8 years straight. This is a mid-rise jean with a lot of thought put into the waist and high hip area. This can be a tricky exercise to fit since the rolls of selvedge denim are only about 31" wide and creating space for you bunz can challenge even the best pattern makers out there.

In the end, these Sheffield jeans check several boxes for looser fitting jeans without tipping them towards anything considered baggy or stove pipe.

For those lads locked into slim fitting jeans- have a go at these. They may be a ways away from what you already have in your closet but after a month or so, you will grow to appreciate this fit and the timeless style it offers up, not to mention the joy of reaching down for your socks on the floor and simultaneously realizing that that butt crack draft thing is a thing of the past!

    Without question Tellason is the best denim company in the US.

    Everyday Wear with Sheffield 12.5

    Posted by C. on 18th Mar 2021

    I was in a rut with selvedge jeans prior to picking up my new pair of 12.5 oz Sheffields. My desires for a straighter cut, more room in the waist and top block, all-day comfort, and solid quality have been met! I'm tall, athletic, so either jeans are too tight or I'm swimming in them. With my Sheffields I have found the perfect median: flattering but with plenty of room to move. Looking forward to fading these during the upcoming Texas summer.

    Sheffield 12.5 oz

    Posted by Daniel Slaunwhite on 15th Jun 2020

    Just as Tellason jeans pay tribute to The Clash, I am sure this pair of denim will make my memories for a long time. Great fit, and made to last. Last two pairs were JMG's but went with mid-rise and looser leg fit, as I am now a little older hanging with a different crowd. Love the crispness and color. Just get a pair and work 'em. Cheers.

    Live with no denim regrets

    Posted by Adam on 16th May 2020

    You might wince at the price when you buy these but you'll forget about that as soon as you put them on. The denim quality is in another league. The Sheffield fit is great for those who need a higher rise in the waist and seat and also prefer a smooth taper. You will not regret these jeans.

    My first Tellason jeans

    Posted by Li King Yip on 15th Sep 2019

    After Mr. Tony’s opinion, I can choose my size easily. Sheffield 12.5 oz is comfort & look smart for me. My next target is heavier weight Ankara!

    Fabric and pattern

    Posted by Mark Toothman on 4th Feb 2019

    Jeans are as American as they get and the best is made from Cone Mills White Oak fabric. The hand and look of the ring ring yarn woven on fly shuttle looms is so much better than that from modern high speed looms there is no comparison. Tellason has the pattern making expertise to make them fit right too, especially in the seat and crotch. The cut and sew quality is A+. I own pairs in Elgin and Sheffield patterns. I look forward to wearing one of my three pairs almost daily. With Cone Mills gone I am stocking up!
