Broken In Ash Pants
$170.00
The Ash is a denim pant built for real childhood — dirt, growth spurts, and not changing before you go outside. Made from 100% post-consumer denim, pre-softened by whoever wore it first. Elasticated waist, reinforced knees, and extra leg length so you'll get at least one more season out of them. Available in Heirloom Blue (classic mid-wash) and Colorblock (two tones of post-consumer denim in a curved contrast panel). No two pieces exactly alike.

Broken In is built from fabric that already existed — and constructed to the same standard as everything Jackalo makes.
- 100% post-consumer cotton denim, rescued from donated clothing the resale system couldn't place
- Pants pocket linings cut from post-consumer shirting — also rescued
- Pre-softened by previous wear: noticeably softer than new fabric from the start
- Slight variation in fade and texture between pieces — an inherent quality of reclaimed material
- Reinforced construction at the points that take the most abuse
- Built to be worn hard and handed down

This Piece is One of a Kind
Broken In is made from post-consumer denim — fabric that already existed, already faded, already softened by someone else's wear. That means every piece carries its own variation in color, texture, and character. What arrives at your door is yours alone.
Up to 98% less water
Making new denim is extraordinarily water-intensive. Starting from fabric that already exists skips almost all of it.
Up to 68% less electricity
The energy required to grow, gin, spin, weave, and finish new cotton fabric adds up fast. Post-consumer denim sidesteps most of that process entirely.
Up to 80% lower carbon impact
From fiber to finished garment, the carbon footprint of post-consumer denim is a fraction of what it takes to make something new from scratch.
