Short Description
Anyone claiming they're "into denim" while sleeping on Y/Project is essentially admitting they only read fashion headlines without bothering with the actual articles. Glenn Martens' structural experiments have completely redefined what jeans can be—transforming the most ubiquitous garment on earth into something genuinely intellectually interesting while somehow remaining wearable.
The signature belt loop construction pulls a brilliant optical illusion—creating that coveted leg-lengthening effect without requiring you to balance on six-inch heels all day. Martens understands the infinite potential of negative space and asymmetry in a way that makes most designers look like they're still figuring out how to fold a paper airplane. It's architectural thinking applied to something you actually wear rather than just photograph for Instagram.
Medium wash denim provides the perfect canvas for Y/Project's conceptual experimentation—clean enough to showcase the construction details while still delivering that lived-in appeal that prevents these from reading as costume. The slightly faded character creates dimension without distracting from the real star: that innovative silhouette manipulation that's become the house signature.
Construction quality alone separates these from the endless parade of "directional" denim pretenders flooding your social feed—the difference between concept that's actually executable versus the kind of runway-only pieces that fall apart after two wears. While other brands are busy gluing random objects to basic jeans and calling it innovative, Y/Project is actually re-engineering the foundational garment of modern wardrobes from the pattern up.
