We developed these outfits to celebrate the tactile chemistry between stiff unwashed selvedge denim and soft waffle-knit thermals. The honeycomb weave of a thermal henley traps body heat while creating a cozy textured base beneath rigid indigo workwear. Our stylists suggest rolling outer jacket cuffs slightly to reveal selvedge seam details and teaming with durable leather service boots.
