Signal Stitch Salvage Repair Jeans

Mid‑blue distressed jeans with a slim, tapered “small straight” leg and a heavily worked, DIY feel. Cut to a neat mid‑rise, the silhouette follows the line of the leg without clinging, narrowing subtly toward the ankle for a clean stacked look over sneakers or boots. The denim is washed to a soft fade through the thighs and knees, then finished with extensive rips, abrasions, and repaired details—most notably a dark indigo sashiko‑style patch on the left thigh and layered frayed panels and slashes down both legs. Small contrast stitches and a discrete red tag near the left hem add pops of color that enhance the hand‑repaired mood. Built from slightly stretchy denim that resists losing shape, they’re geared toward youth‑leaning, casual summer outfits where the jeans themselves are the focal point.

Fabric: denim (cotton with slight stretch)
